Corden took over hosting duties of The Late Late Show last March from Craig Ferguson and gone viral recently due to a hugely popular segment on his show, Carpool Karaoke.
Corden originated in theater before getting his own late night talk show, even winning a Tony in 2012 for his performance in One Man, Two Guvnors and started alongside stars Meryl Streep and Emily Blunt in 2014’s film adaptation of the Tony winning musical Into the Woods.
The Nominations for the 2016 Tony Awards will be announced live May from that Paramount Hotel in New York City. The Tony Awards air June 12 on CBS.
