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."

When i see Neil Patrick harris in a suit my mind goes straight to Barney Stinson

[Skkorm]

Whenever NPH gets an attitude, a little bit of Barney comes out lol so awesome

[leonieboensch]

Neil should've sang "nothin suits me like a suit" that would've topped anything :)

[ThreeFlatDucks]

Theatre kids when left alone for more then four seconds:

[tanmayarvind]

James : The Gayest Straight Man Alive
Neil : The Straightest Gay Man Alive


I LOVE IT!

[malachimizori]

The gay man who no one believed was gay, and the straight man who everyone thought was gay ^_^ I love these two, they are absolutely brilliant. NPH has always had amazing vocals but that note that James Corden holds.... Damn! haha. P.S. What a great song to end it with!!! haha what awesome fun!

[eagelswift]

Props to those boys for managing to sing through their laughter! They looked like they were having fun :)
Also, I keep forgetting that Corden can sing so well. He held that note so long! He even got respect from the Philharmonics

[prestantiousunicorns]

James Patrick Corden

"Well my middle name isn't actually Patrick, it's Kimberly so you look stupid"

[NOONE-cdgu]

Can we just talk about the fact that James held that note from 5:15 - to 5:30 a good 15 seconds and he was on tune aswell?
