Lady Gaga’s appearance on Carpool Karaoke is definitely one of the biggest to happen since the segment started, possibly rivaling Michelle Obama or Adele in the status involved. The pink hat is here and it is alive and well the entire ride — and the rest of the show too. Before hitting the road with Corden, Gaga essentially took over the studio to do Corden’s opening for him and then join the band for the rest of the night. It is essentially a Gaga night on The Late Late Show, made a little ominous by the presence of Jeffrey Dean Morgan. He left the bat at home, but we all know what he did.
The segment itself followed those similar lines, with Corden attempting to get to work and needing some assistance from a famous passenger. A complete fabrication since we all know that most of Hollywood’s elite travels around with jetpacks and never shares the road with the normal peons.
With Gaga, we’re at least guaranteed that she will sing her own songs — unlike Britney Spears — and it will be pretty good singing. Gaga has a good voice and it makes this segment much better as we’ve seen in the past.
It’s also a nice audition/preview of Gaga’s Super Bowl half time show, possibly featuring another Carpool Karaoke segment. Joy! Just don’t let Lady Gaga drive the car. It might end poorly and with you getting a nice big finger out of the window. Wear your helmet.
