James Corden + Jennifer Hudson = Magic

There’s nothing more fun than singing your head off like a diva in your car. Some days we’re Mariah Carey, some days we’re paying tribute to Whitney Houston. But what happens when you get an actual diva alongside James Corden in an actual car? Magic, that’s what.

The Late Late Show With James Corden is still relatively new, but it’s already making headlines for the host’s affable charm and genuinely witty segments. This new series – introduced two weeks ago and already featuring Mariah Carey – is called Carpool Karaoke. This time around, it was Jennifer Hudson‘s moment to shine. Whether you’re in need of some procrastination or you’re after some cheering up, this is 8 minutes of your time you’ll be glad you’ve handed over.

Massive props to Corden who holds an impressive note or two next to this glass-shattering legend.

Also, James, can we be your best friend? We’re really rather jealous that America has adopted him. We knew him as Smithy from Gavin and Stacey long before you did.
