Adele's Carpool Karaoke Is the Biggest Late-Night Viral Video Since 2013
Last week, Adele seized the world's attention again as the guest on the Late Late Show with James Corden's latest installment of Carpool Karaoke. She and the lovely-voiced Corden (he starred in Into the Woods, people!) ran through hits like "Hello" and "Someone Like You" and tore through the Spice Girls' "Wannabe" and the Nicki Minaj verse on Kanye West's "Monster." (Which was so hot it sent the five-year-old rap classic into the Top 40 of iTunes' songs chart.)
In five days the clip scored 42 million views, making it "the most viral video any late-night TV show has produced since 2013," Variety reports. They added, "Relative to the other late-night kings, the Adele clip already ranks among the top 10 most viewed late night videos of the past year."
