James Corden’s “Carpool Karaoke Primetime Special” is returning with a splash on Monday night with songstress Christina Aguilera. The diva will duet with the “Late Late Show” host on the hourlong special at 10 p.m. ET/PT. Last year’s “Primetime Special” guest was Katy Perry.
This year’s special will also include a new “Crosswalk the Musical,” which will be “The Sound of Music.” “Mom” stars Anna Faris and Allison Janney, “The Big Bang Theory’s” Kunal Nayyar and “Young Sheldon’s” Iain Armitage will join Corden for their take of the classic musical, all within the confines of a crosswalk. Last year, Ben Kingsley joined Corden for a “Crosswalk the Musical” version of “Mary Poppins.”
