11 Reasons Carpool Karaokes Are The Best Interviews Ever
Late Late Show

James Corden, host of "The Late Late Show," is the hilarious and creative man behind "Carpool Karaoke" interviews. It does not matter if you are or aren't a fan of the celebs he interviews in his car, because by the end of the carpool karaoke, you will find yourself looking at those people with a newfound respect. Maybe you'll end up downloading some of their songs, and watching other interviews too. As for the carpool karaokes of the celebrities you already love, you'll find yourself re-watching the interview at any chance you get. Here are 11 reasons why James Corden's Carpool Karaoke's are the best interviews ever.

1. The lack of pressure brings out authentic personalities, showing viewers what our favorite celebs are really like.

There is a lot of laughter, smiling, and singing. There isn't much room for filtering and nerves because the interview is basically a casual conversation with some singing involved.

2. Viewers learn about various hidden talents of celebrities through the car interviews.

Did you know that Chris Martin impersonates other singers in his concerts to get the crowd rowdy? Did you know he does a killer Mick Jagger impersonation? How about Sia -- did you know that she can balance a dozen eggs on the back of her hands? You probably didn't, and wouldn't, know this, but now you do thanks to James Corden's carpool karaokes.


3. Viewers get to watch performances of our favorite songs and see pure emotion radiate from each singer.


Unfortunately not all of us will be able to see the talented Jennifer Hudson in person, but thanks to James Corden we can say that we've heard her sing, "And I Am Telling You I'm Not Going" in an intimate setting. And I'm confident we all had goosebumps as we sat there, in awe, just like James.

4. We learned that there is a way to make karaoke more enjoyable (and hilarious) -- by accessorizing!

5. When fans don’t get the music videos they want, James Corden makes sure the music videos are created and shared.

One Direction fans banded together to make "No Control" a success when the band's management decided not to make "No Control" a single, and James decided that the lack of a music video to that song was a tragedy. He took matters into his own hands and put together a music video fans will never forget.


6. James takes full advantage of each interviewee’s talent, which we vicariously live through.

We will never have the chance to have Jennifer Hudson sing our fast food order, but James had the opportunity and he jumped on it. Thank you for that, James!

7. James picks the bests songs for the celebs to sing along to.

James doesn't waste any time or energy; if you're going to sing songs in the car with a singer, might as well sing some of the best songs they have ever written and performed.

8. It's hilarious to watch celebs react to James' talented singing voice.

He was cast in "Into The Woods" as the Baker for a reason, people!


9. And it's even more funny when he messes up while singing lyrics.

It's OK, James. It happens to the best of us.

10. He jumps on participating in funny, creative opportunities without worrying about his image or ego.

James took advantage of laying in a motel bed with Chris Martin --something many people (including myself) would kill to do. Props to you, James, for making it happen and capturing it on camera. I wish I was you.


11. He gives fans the opportunity to see what kind of passenger each celeb is.

Adele and Louis Tomlinson, for instance, are passengers who tend to look out the window very often. Very interesting.

Friendship. It's defined as the state of being attached to another person by feelings of affection or personal regard, but what really is friendship? Is it that occasional hallway talk with that one person who always manages to cheer you up? Is it that relationship you have with someone where they can be gone for a long period of time, but when they come back, it's like they never left? Is it spending every waking hour with someone, and knowing every detail about their life? Is it the relationship that's filled with fighting, but filled with even more resolution? I've learned that it's all of these things, and every friendship is different. It's a beautifully dysfunctional mess that should always be cherished and never be taken for granted.

I've known you your entire life. More than likely I held you in the first three days of it and at least one of us cried. Cousins are truly one of the best things in the world and while sometimes I complain about how many people crowd Grandma's living room on Christmas Eve, I wouldn't trade you all anything.

You are my best friends, the only people who can understand what it's like on Thanksgiving, and you are the spunkiest people I have ever met. But you as so so young, most of you are just now starting your adventures in the public education system. I mean, I'm so very young too. I'm not married, I don't have children, heck, I just started my adult life, but I do want to give you what little advice I have. My dears, these are the things I want you to know.
