In a remarkable three-minute segment, James Corden managed to encapsulate the most significant events of 2020 on The Late Late Show. Since taking the helm of the show in 2015, Corden has consistently brought fan-favorite segments, including his iconic “Carpool Karaoke” and the much-anticipated end-of-year recap. This year, he had a lot to cover, and he tackled it with the humor and speed that fans have come to love.
Corden’s rap summary of the year’s viral moments was as reflective as one would anticipate, considering the tumultuous events of 2020. While the year may not seem particularly funny in hindsight, Corden reminded us that laughter is essential — we’ve shed enough tears already. He recounted memorable events, from a presidential impeachment and Pence’s infamous fly to the relocation of Meghan Markle and Prince Harry to the U.S. He also touched on the confusion surrounding Elon Musk and Grimes’ baby’s name and the collective obsession with sourdough starters.
He revisited both unforgettable moments and some that had slipped our minds, like Donald Trump’s notorious “Four Seasons” press conference, which we might be thankful for long into the future. Corden highlighted the chaos of 2020: murder hornets, toilet paper shortages, nationwide protests, and a global pandemic, reminding us that this year has truly been “the absolute worst.”
However, it wasn’t all doom and gloom. There were bright spots, like Jennifer Lopez’s Super Bowl halftime show, Parasite winning Best Picture, the cultural phenomenon of Tiger King, the viral success of WAP lyrics, and the worldwide TikTok dance craze. Corden also mentioned popular shows that helped us through the monotony of staying at home, such as Queen’s Gambit, Schitt’s Creek, The Undoing, and Borat 2 (without the Giuliani scene).
Amidst the challenges, Corden delivered a hopeful message: “Don’t get me wrong, there’s reason to hope,” he rapped. He pointed out that five more states legalized marijuana, the COVID vaccine is on the horizon, and that washing our hands and helping neighbors can help us move past this difficult year. He concluded with a hopeful note about longing for in-person gatherings next year, a sentiment we all share as we look ahead after this tumultuous year.
