MANILA, Philippines – The internet is abuzz with Beyoncé suddenly dropping her visual album Lemonade. On the Late Late Show, talk show host James Corden pays homage to Queen Bey herself in his usual monologue, and gives it a look and feel akin to the Lemonade TV special. He calls it Lemonjames.
"I try to write a monologue night after night. Even though we don't have a show I write a monologue, but you don't see that," James laments, trying to make his whisper as sultry as he can.
He groans, "I don't wanna do a Trump joke. I've exhausted that topic. I've talked about his hair. His tiny baby hands" – but also drops a joke: "A new ice cream shop opened at a former Massachusetts funeral home. They callin' it Casket Robbins."
"A new study found that 60% of women in Los Angeles are single. Another study found that 60% of men in Los Angeles would wish that all the single ladies," James goes, not missing the chance for a Beyoncé reference: "All the single ladies… will put their hands up."
He tries to be fierce as the erstwhile Sasha Fierce, wears a flowing yellow dress and wreaks destruction as "Hold Up" plays.
