Corden proved that he has a league of his own. He showcased his singing prowess and unique comedic style to talk about Donald Trump. Despite the seriousness of the topic, the late night host made sure that he did it well and he had fun in it.

Corden has tapped Tim Minchin and the "Matilda: The Musical" stars for a social relevant video. They put a hilarious spin on the famous children's book novel from Roald Dahl.

 "When I Grow Up" is one of the songs that Michin wrote for the Tony Award-winning show.
They performed their own interpretation of the said piece. According to Variety, it was full of cheeky lyrics about the scandalous Trump.

What Happened In The Video

In the video, Michin took the role of a younger Trump. He spoke about the travel ban, his issue with women and Obamacare. He was then joined by his fellow thespians as they sat on separate life-size swings.

Corden, on the other hand, played as Trump's chief strategist Steve Bannon. "Timeless" actress Abigail Spencer portrayed Kellyanne Conway while Ben Platt Corden was Sean Spicer.

The Funny Twist

The viral clip ended with a surprising turn. The talented quartet motivated the audience that it was not the "end" for everyone. They also encouraged them to do it right with a little bit of mischief.

The "Donald Trump: The Musical" parody video joins the list of Corden's online hits. He recently worked with the cast of "Beauty and the Beast" in a video.
