James Corden has done several Crosswalk the Musicals in Los Angeles on The Late Late Show including Grease and Beauty and the Beast, and now he taking his act to Broadway. Not inside a theater but on the streets outside those theaters in NYC.
If you are going to take over the great The Great White Way, you need some big names to sing and dance along side you. Therefore he got the three leads from The Greatest Showman to join him on the concrete. Hugh Jackman, Zac Efron, Zendaya and the CBS late night host belted out New York, New York from Our Town, Sit Down You’re Rocking the Boat from Guys & Dolls, The Greatest Show from The Greatest Showman and closed it out with Fame. All those songs honoring the Big Apple, but they are just missing one, Lullaby of Broadway from 42nd Street. Other than that, bravo, bravo!
Plus, it is a Christmas miracle they are all alive because you don’t mess with NYers and traffic.
The Greatest Showman is coming to theaters in less than two weeks, and the main cast recorded a bit with James Corden today on the streets in Manhattan. What do those streets remind you of? Fame of course, so The Late Late Show host, Hugh Jackman, Zac Efron (in a blonde wig) and Zendaya will recreate that infamous number from the 1980 movie that made us all want to go to the Fiorello H. LaGuardia High School of Music and Art and Performing Arts.
No word when it will air on CBS, but we will not have to live forever to see it.
The second trailer is out for The Greatest Showman with Hugh Jackman and Zac Efron and I know I cannot wait to see it on December 20th.
Just watching this trailer reminded me of the happy times I used to have going to Barnum and Bailey Circus as a kid. I know that is not PC to say, but I enjoyed the circus. Because of that, I can see loving this film just as much.
Vogue went to Zac Efron’s house and asked him 73 questions. Like what was the name of his first animal, who is his biggest influence is and the weirdest thing he cooked. Which is what he would be if he was not an actor. My favorite question, was what would be the name of his musical and he said Zacalcious. My favorite answer is to whom he would love to do a love scene with? He said, “The Rock. Finish what we started [in Baywatch.]”
While the questions were stupid, he looked stupid hot answering them. He is such a charmer, my pants fell off watching this interview. Watch it in mute because the real him and the cardboard version of him are so much fun to watch!
When was the last time you saw something Zac Efron did where he kept his shirt on the whole time. I do not think that ever happened. That is until now. Here is him and his brother, Dylan, audition to be the spokesmen for Columbia Sportswear…with their shirts on. Which makes sense because you cannot go without clothes for a clothing company.
