Adele, Human Karaoke Machine, Raps Nicki Minaj with James Corden
Hey Nicki, what's good?

Update, 1/14: Nicki is HERE FOR IT.
Pull thru, QUEEN!!!!! 😜🙈🏆👑👑👑 #Adele #Monster the attitude & fingers to match. #Oh #Ok #Iconic ❤️ https://t.co/wfreOQAuOfJanuary 14, 2016
Original story, 1/14: In what's truly an "Adele for all the awards!" moment, the chanteuse joined Late Late Show host James Corden for a round of Carpool Karaoke, and so many amazing things happened. Including but not limited to:
1. Adele rapping Nicki Minaj's "Monster." Listening to her muse, "first things first I eat your brains" = mind blowing.
2. Adele singing "Wannabe" by the Spice Girls and explaining *super* seriously that they marked a "really important period" of her life. If only Victoria Beckham felt the same way.
3. Adele revealing that she played the drums on "Hello," because apparently she's a musical prodigy.
4. Adele casually announcing, "I got drunk three nights in a row recently." (Same.)
5. Adele discussing the potential squad formation of herself, Jennifer Lawrence, Amy Schumer, Emma Stone, and Beyonce. As James Corden says: "Taylor Swift's squad would shit themselves."
