One could list for hours the sheer number of global stars who have driven the most famous musical car of the past decade. Carpool Karaoke says goodbye, just like James Corden’s Late Late Show. But he says goodbye in style with one last protagonist: Adele.
Or rather, you could say he’s saying goodbye as the British singer and presenter couldn’t help but end up in tears as he remembered his story. A friendship that goes back in time and that includes their families and which even led to the composition of the song I am drinking wine as they confirmed in the space of over 20 minutes.
Adele and James Corden have sung some of English’s most iconic songs like Roll in the depths, love is a game where the citada I drink wine. In addition, they recalled some fragments of key moments in the history of this format that changed entertainment and the way artists presented themselves to promote their songs.
BlackPink, Justin Bieber, Lady Gaga, Bruno Mars, Paul McCartney, Chris Martin, Stevie Wonder, Mariah Carey, BTS, Bad Bunny, Kanye West, Ed Sheeran, Celine Dion, Jonas Brothers, Camila Cabello, Miley Cyrus, Demi Lovato, Christina Aguilera, Harry Styles, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Selena Gomez, Sia, Niall Horan, Lizzo, Meghan Trainor, Ariana Grande, Lil Nas X, Michael Bublé, Rod Stewart, Britney Spears, Jennifer Lopez, Will Smith, Elton John, Nicki Minaj , Sam Smith, Migos, Barbra Streisand, Gwen Stefani, Billie Eilish, Sia, One Direction, Madonna, George Michael Pink, Shawn Mendes, Take That, Michelle Obama… The list of stars is inexhaustible and brutal.
Adele and James Corden’s tears as they bid farewell to Carpool Karaoke make it clear that this promotional space has also been something else for many artists who have made it their goal to be on the show. No wonder if you take into account that the most viewed videos of the program have exceeded 200 million views.
The British singer was the queen of this format. And all this despite the fact that Justin Bieber has participated in more editions but his appearances have been the most emblematic, the most viewed and are already part of the official farewell to the program. Goodbye carpooling karaoke!
