Will Patti LuPone Go To Brunch With Producer Dave?

A discussion about celebrity names unexpectedly morphs into a campaign to get our producer Dave Piendak to ask his idol, Broadway legend Patti LuPone, to brunch. Afterwards, James turns his attention to the big headlines of the day like the return of Major Biden to The White House - but things quickly go back off the rails when Patti replies!

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."

Smash that 👍 if you wanna got to brunch with Dave

Hells yeah! 🙌🏼

every Dave needs a James

[@hellofromcarcosa3008]

Corden, you took it too far in this one. You were straight up being a bully. Uncool.

[@joanne4758]

@@hellofromcarcosa3008 Couldn't agree more - I really enjoy James - but this one crossed the line. That's not how you treat your work colleagues. (NZ)

[@whenrainbowsend]

I love that the monologue just got derailed and turned into what is basically a group of friends trying to get one of them to ask their crush out on a date 😂😂

[@erikfinkel2717]

not cool, mad anxiety inducing expecially on national television. but thats just me lol

[@donb6897]

i think it's an admiration thing. for whatever reason i have this notion in my head that dave is gay, so patti couldn't be his crush. hasn't he talked about his partner on the show before?

[@RS-ny8my]

pretty sure dave is gay haha

[@JamesThomas-xo5fy]

Davy has a husband LOL

[@molchmolchmolchmolch]

Felt like bullying to me. And if you see this segment as Patty LuPone you realise this message was only sent bc some douchebag was bullied into it bc another one wanted sthg for his show. 🤮

[@noahbutler4709]

NO MORE AUDIENCE!! These monologues are on another level since the crowd has been gone. Seriously, y’all are killing it!

[@sibala5977]

I am from Germany and I am so mad about not chatching all of it! It´ s so great! Never let audience in again...

[@susannet.401]

I agree

[@Chip_Ryan571]

I'm watching from France Totally agree... No more audience

[@generic_handle_1]

Haha that must be so unrewarding for James to not have any real time feedback and know just how hard these jokes are hitting for everyone at home. I can't stop laughing it hurts.

[@suew6030]

This is my second time watching and it’s still as funny as the first time I watched it

Please please please, I'm begging you, don't let an audience back in! This is sooo perfectly funny, and you'll be the only one doing this! I cry laughing.

[@Sholzhauser1]

Absolutely agree!! You can just see how much they respect each other and this is the best job ever!!

[@matbroomfield]

I agree but I think James needs a full audience too much. It's a shame though - his crew and band are amazing.

The Patti LuPone bit made me miss my friends... the peer pressure, the vested interest in each other’s love lives and the helping each other construct winning texts 😂😂😂😂

James is that friend who dares you to text your crush and eventually snatches your phone when you don't do it. I love this show! 🤣

[@TheLateLateShow]

we all need that friend

[@ellevonk.2925]

That’d be me. Lol.

[@DartmouthOutingClub]

PLEASE DON'T EVER CHANGE THIS FORMAT! The organic, less scripted late night shows (especially this one) have been an incredible silver lining during the pandemic. Truly, this is FAR more entertaining and hilarious than before - and I was already a big fan of LLSJC.

[@foreverajinx]

[@Teonnaise]

I've always had a bit of reservation watching Corden's LLS coming from Craig Ferguson, but the monologues they do now just really hit it for me. You can feel the authenticity and camaraderie that I don't think I ever felt during the pre-pandemic days. Please, James, this is already great; your formula needs no adjustments. Except maybe kidnapping One Direction idk
