Despite being best known in the UK for Gavin & Stacy, James Corden has shot to fame across the pond, The Late Late Show being a huge hit, somewhat thanks to his Carpool Karaoke segments.
They’ve become so popular that Corden can barely have a guest on his show without engaging in some sort of singalong, as proven by Victoria Beckham’s appearance.
Appearing on the show to promote an upcoming clothing range, the ex-Spice Girl took part in a pre-filmed fake movie trailer, spoofing the 1987 romantic comedy Mannequin.
“He was a talk show host, and she was a mannequin who turned his world upside down,” a voice-over says as Corden appears besotted with a mannequin. “To everyone else, he’s a disaster. The world couldn’t understand their love.”

The twist, however, is that the “dummy” is actually Victoria Beckham, with Corden being the only one who can see her. Eventually, the host steals the ‘mannequin’, driving away with her in the passenger’s seat.
As expected, Corden begins playing music, the duo eventually singing along to Spice Girls hit “Spice Up Your Life.” Watch the full clip below.
