Each week night, THE LATE LATE SHOW with JAMES CORDEN throws the ultimate late night after party with a mix of celebrity guests, edgy musical acts, games and sketches. Corden differentiates his show by offering viewers a peek behind-the-scenes into the green room, bringing all of his guests out at once and lending his musical and acting talents to various sketches. Additionally, bandleader Reggie Watts and the house band provide original, improvised music throughout the show. Since Corden took the reigns as host in March 2015, he has quickly become known for generating buzzworthy viral videos, such as Carpool Karaoke."

[@AshutoshSingh-sp4jq]

Hudson is not only an underrated vocalist but also an underselling one.

[@PDC1987]

Because, for some unknown reason, decent and/or commercially viable writers and producers have never worked with her.

[@changetocome100]

Its because Americal prefers black voices/music from non black ppl, its the only way to get superstardom (Adele, Justin T, Ed Sheerhan, Bruno Mars, Michael Bolton etc) but they cant be too aligned with black ppl so for instance Robin Thicke had a black wife, Jon B who's also amazing, but most white folks prob dont know him, Iggy Azalea- tries too hard to be "blackish" so her fame will never rise beyond a certain level etc etc.

[@jimquantic]

who underrates her? I can't think of anyone who ever has.

[@changetocome100]

@@jimquantic If u have to ask then you don't understand how things work. Jhud is more or less black famous or rather her core fan base is simply because of her style and vocals..

[@VontiNYC]

***** Her voice is too powerful for mainstream pop music. No matter how hard she tries to fit into that box this woman has a powerhouse voice. It reminds me of when Jessica Simpson came out. Google her first single and she SLAYED that song but they wanted pop singers. So Britney and Christina were thrust into the limelight. Jessica can sing circles around them both (NO LIE) but she wasn't pop/dance enough. My opinion

[@SuperBullaMan]

***** Because she's not a fan of your music?

***** No one is going around making these comments on white Artist, you look like trouble to me. go comment on Brittany or iggy!!

When you sing so good that you tell yourself *sing*

[@federicoraggio8111]

She referred to Jennifer Holliday... the original interpreter of this song... seriously there are people who know this song but not Jennifer Holliday?! She is one of the Greatest voices ever!!! If you hear her sing this... oh man... JHud is insane but Jennifer Holliday... just inhuman.

[@TamannaDas]

@@federicoraggio8111 why would she be referring to Holliday here though? It was her version that was playing on the radio. Of course it's quite hard to tell what she exactly meant given they both have the same name!

[@federicoraggio8111]

[@kraykray4446]

No one has a voice like Jennifer Hudson.

[@ParamoreVzla]

She deserves far more recognition from the public than she has. She's good-looking, extremely talented. I don't know if she's a good songwriter but she should at least get a big hit before she gets older. Why can't the music industry make that happen?

[@purpledragonfly4]

+ParamoreVzla Genuinely not sure how long you have or if you have followed her career but she has had A LOT of huge international hits!!

Aaliyah Vitalis Aaliyah Vitalis I agree, God has blessed her indeed. And ignore the naysayers. They're not even sure about the reality of their own existence. The visceral responses to such an unoffensive comment just shows you how much they think about a God that supposedly doesn't exist...and how tormented they are inside.

Jennifer's stank face when she's feeling it is the best she just genuinely loves music and singing

[@dreww3484]

Yes!! Her stank face is so infectious that I found myself doing it unintentionally as I was watching. 😂💗

[@lebronpoole1044]

She has a passion for what she does.

[@seven471]

I used the term stank face with my daughter and my brother and they looked at me like what the hell are you talking about. I said you know when you're singing something and it feels really good and you just make that ugly face. My brother's like I don't know what you're talking about.. I was like never mind

When she hits that big note in And I Am Telling You, and James covers his mouth, you can tears in his eyes. I love when he gets so moved by the talent he has in his car

[@nsaunders83]

I'm home watching years later but I still feel that same way right now

[@laurenlaroche8620]

I thought the same thing!!!!

[@yarimarie7634]

She gives me goosebumps every single time I hear this song!

[@mjfan911]

hahah it was one of the few times the artist was actually a better vocalist than James himself. hes got musical theatre training so he has more technique than the pop stars he sings with usually. he didnt even bother with most of "And I am telling you" hahahha

[@vanesagodoyMJD14]

Absolutely, she's amazing !!!

[@antownemercer7552]

They way she can just open her mouth and the melody can flow out so effortless is amazing!

[@I_am_Tee]

I revisit this often. The fact that this is just her playing around and hitting those notes is crazy to me! 🤯🤯🤯❤️🥰

[@sh09un1]

james is absolutely killing it, with every episode his show is getting better and better. its a shame that its a late late show because bits like this make him tonight show worthy. he has a way of breaking down a celebrity image and letting us take a peak at who they really are.

[@JoUrlacher]

sh09un1 I'm absolutely thrilled for James! As an American, I'm excited to see how well he's being received over here! I adore him and can't wait for him to have Gary Barlow on his show! Those two together are electric! Go James! You've found a home not just with The Late Late Show, but in America my dear!

[@elizabethvidal5842]

sh09un1 He's doing what international talk shows have been doing for years. Not just interviewing celebrities but actually hanging out with them. Not just on the couch but in real life situations.

[@LesEXO2012]

***** James isn't really showing "British humor" whatever that is. He's not telling any jokes differently than other late night American talk shows are telling them. I love James to pieces and watch this show every night after Jimmy Fallon lol I've watched 'A league of their own' and 'Celebrity Juice' on youtube and laughed just as hard as I do when SNL is funny or 'Modern Family'. I just don't understand when people say "British" humor vs "American" humor. Monty Python was/is very popular here just as Friends was/is well received in the UK cause funny is funny. I don't get the difference besides some British comedics being a bit dry but same can be said for some US comedians. Sorry for the rambling lol I've just seen many people from the UK in the comments sections concerned or surprised James is a hit here and I'm confused as to why? He's darn funny and a pleasure to stay up "late late" to watch :))

[@presterjohn71]

***** James went off the rails about 6 years ago and became a bit unbearable. Very big headed and full of himself. It was just a temporary wobble and his friends and family got him back on track but a lot of Brits have never been able to quite forgive him for it. It is a shame because he earned his success and learned his lesson when it came to the fame side of things.

[@lovieg4742]

Beautiful.
