A Soap Opera Comprised Of Beyonce Lyrics? James Corden Went There!
Beyonce is one of the few artists that hasn’t jumped in James Corden’s car for a bout of Carpool Karaoke, but he clearly doesn’t hold a grudge. In fact, the talk show host came up with a soap opera based on the Lemonade diva’s lyrics — and invited Adam Scott and Meg Ryan to star. The skit is all kinds of awkward (particularly when the Parks And Recreation actor “accidentally” slips in a Lady Gaga lyric) but there are a few laughs. For starters, this could be your only chance to hear a middle-aged white man say “grainin’ on that wood.”
As for Queen Bey? Well, she was too busy with The Formation World Tour to participate. The superstar is back on the road after taking some time off for vocal rest. And she’s unlikely to resurface any time soon — getting in more promo than unusual with her mega-medley at the recent MTV VMAs and star-studded 35th birthday celebration. In fact, it wouldn’t surprise me if she doesn’t appear again until the Grammys. (After all, Lemonade is a clear frontrunner for Album Of The Year glory).
