Each week night, THE LATE LATE SHOW with JAMES CORDEN throws the ultimate late night after party with a mix of celebrity guests, edgy musical acts, games and sketches. Corden differentiates his show by offering viewers a peek behind-the-scenes into the green room, bringing all of his guests out at once and lending his musical and acting talents to various sketches. Additionally, bandleader Reggie Watts and the house band provide original, improvised music throughout the show. Since Corden took the reigns as host in March 2015, he has quickly become known for generating buzzworthy viral videos, such as Carpool Karaoke."

The crowd not sure whether the first mispronunciation was a joke or not. Too awkward to laugh. This is ultimate trolling.

I was so confused for a second thinking "struggles with" meant she'd be overcome by emotions. You got me.

[AFlowerForever]

I didn't know she could sing! She actually has quite a nice voice!

1:06 The audience was being so polite though. They didn't start laughing until James reacted to her mispronounciation, making it obvious that she was doing a bit.
