James Corden remakes Despacito into hilarious news roundup

Justin Bieber’s Despacito got a fun new twist thanks to Late Late Show host James Corden, who re-wrote the lyrics to the reggaeton hit in order to sum up the summer’s most iconic moments.

The live audience went mad when they heard the introductory guitar riff of the well known song as the late-night host, 38, gave the camera an intense and sensual glare.

The Brit then began to sing about today’s baffling politics starting with North Korea’s nuclear threats and Donald’s shameful ‘both sides’ comments.

The lyricist’s touched on the president’s latest antics singing ‘Donald Trump made comments that brought him shame, kept saying that both sides are to blame, after denouncing the Nazi’s slowly, slowly…’ 

Carrying on with the President’s policies, Corden continued: ”There was an awful trans military ban and many other things I did not understand.’ 

Scaramucci’s 10-day stint and Spicer’s lay off were also highlighted in the upbeat track, before he turned to Obamacare.

‘Plus GOP voted on a healthcare bill, but slowly found Obamacare they could not kill, and thta left Senator Mitch McConnell crying, wah wah’ poking fun at the Kentucky politicians somber faces that made headlines.

Corden took things to a lighter note come pre-chorus singing, ‘…and many other things I did not understand, like why the Bachelorette ended up choosing Bryan,’ blasting reality star Rachel Lindsay for leaving runner-up Peter Kraus in the dust.

The Brit then switched the Spanish hook for his own chorus ‘song of summer’.

‘Okay I know the song of summer is Despacito, and I’m singing slowly just like Despacito, but this song is more than just Despacito,’ he sang.

The star went on to discuss Putin’s meeting with Megyn Kelly, Beyoncé’s twins Rumi and Sir, and Harry Styles’ Hollywood debut in the film Dunkirk.
