Jennifer Lopez And James Corden Do Carpool Karaoke, Text Leonardo DiCaprio: Watch

If you’re scratching your head and wondering why Carpool Karaoke on the Late Late Show has grown into such a phenomenon, the above segment featuring host James Corden and American Idol judge Jennifer Lopez should make it crystal clear. Sure, the pair tear through JLo’s hits together, which is the bread and butter of the runaway hit series-within-a-series. But it’s the unscripted moments that send this thing into must-see territory.

Watch above as no less than the following happens: Lopez, while singing one of her Spanish language songs, becomes so impassioned that she spontaneously punches Corden in the arm; Corden asks JLo to scroll through all the famous people in her phone contacts, and then takes her phone and sends a loaded text to recent Oscar winner Leonardo DiCaprio; Jennifer loses an earring in the car; Corden asks JLo if it’s true that she had her butt insured; Leo finally sends an unintentionally hilarious text back, not realizing this was all a part of a talk show gag.
