Justin Bieber returns for a second round of CarPool Karaoke with James Corden

Justin Bieber Carpool Karaoke - Vol. 2
His first appearance was hilarious, and now, pop singer Justin Bieber has returned for a second trip with late night talk show host James Corden for his popular Carpool Karaoke segment.

When The Biebs originally appeared for the segment in a May episode of the Late Late Show With James Corden, he and the British host belted out a number of his hit tunes, including the then just-released hit Where Are You Now. Corden also discussed lyrics with Bieber, joking with him about silly ones like “eating fondue,” as well as challenging him to solve a Rubik’s Cube.

This time around, the pair took the fun beyond just the vehicle, stopping to go shopping for some new outfits. Corden selected what he felt should be the next progression in Bieber’s style evolution, while Bieber dressed Corden up in what the portly host called clearly inappropriate attire for a father of two.

As they leave the store, Bieber tries to shield Corden from the onslaught of fans and paparazzi pretending they’re after the British host. “How do you live like this?” he jokingly asks Corden as he begs the teary-eyed young girls to leave him alone.

Karaoke was, indeed, part of the interview, including Bieber’s latest hits, What Do You Mean and Sorry, along with a bit of Kanye thrown in for good measure, and even some Alanis Morissette.

Of course what interview would be complete without a mention of Bieber’s recent paparazzi photo and the reported “shrinkage.” Was there really any? You’ll have to watch to find out what the singer has to say, along with an admission of one of his favorite movies (hint: it’s a chick flick).

The first version of Carpool Karaoke with Bieber has already been viewed almost 40 million times. Corden has done about a dozen versions of the popular viral segment, with everyone from Rod Stewart to Stevie Wonder, Mariah Carey, and Iggy Azalea.

The best movies on Amazon Prime Video (April 2024)
Ritu Arya and Priya Kansara in Polite Society.

Things are admittedly slow on Amazon Prime Video during the final weekend of April. Fortunately, the martial arts action comedy Polite Society should be able to bring you some excitement this weekend. Romantic comedy fans can also check out How to Date Billy Walsh, a film that has entered the list of the top 10 most popular movies on Prime Video.

If neither of these films are for you, don't worry. This roundup of the best movies on Amazon Prime Video has something for just about everyone. And on May 1, a whole new batch of movies will arrive, with even more to come as we inch closer to summer.

Glen Powell and Sydney Sweeney in Anyone But You.

Netflix couldn't have asked for a better late April gift than the streaming premiere of Anyone But You. Thanks to Netflix's deal with Sony, 2024's blockbuster rom-com is already on top of the list of the most popular movies on Netflix, leaving Zack Snyder's Rebel Moon – Part Two: The Scargiver in second place. But things could be much worse for Rebel Moon – Part Two, which is performing well a week after its debut.

The other new addition for the week is King Richard, a sports drama starring Will Smith that's appearing on loan from Warner Bros. Discovery. It's also one of Netflix's top movies of the week, which suggests that the film may find sustained popularity on this platform that it didn't get on Max.

The cast of Dead Boy Detectives.

For the final weekend of April, Netflix has debuted one last original show for the month: Dead Boy Detectives. This series was a bit of a gamble because it was dropped by Max. And it might be humiliating for the Warner Bros. Discovery regime if Dead Boy Detectives goes from being a castoff to a breakout hit. Netflix may be able to create lighting in a bottle, but it doesn't always work out, as exemplified by the disappointing performance of the resurrected Girls5eva earlier this year.

The other new addition this week is White Collar, a forbearer of Suits on the USA Network that ended 10 years ago. All six seasons of White Collar are now available, and it's already one of the most popular shows on Netflix. If White Collar can come anywhere close to the success that Suits has had on Netflix, then we can probably expect to see more shows like this in the future.
