Britney Spears: Carpool Karaoke Was “Awkward”





Britney Spears seemed game for anything during her Carpool Karaoke on The Late Late Show. After all, host James Corden can somehow celebrities to let their guard down enough to do something that would embarrass most people.
Hours after the segment aired, though, Britney admitted that Carpool Karaoke was also “awkward.”
“It was a little awkward like driving by grocery stores,” she said to Cubby and Carolina in the Morning on New York’s 103.5’s KTU. “People walk by and there are like 18 cameras around us. This is just so awkward.”
Britney also said that she tried to have some say in the song choices, though James wouldn’t budge.
“Well he controlled the whole thing, and sometimes I got onto him and said, I don’t want to hear that song again.” Which song, exactly? “Of course ‘… Baby [One More Time]’ and ‘Oops![… I Did It Again].’ Oh my god and he kept playing them. He put a wig on for it. Yeah, I totally went along with it.”
Britney doesn’t seem to have hard feelings toward James, though, not when she prefaced all that with, “He’s a teddy bear. I was like, I just want to hug you right now.” But she does remind that, as off the cuff as it may seem, Carpool Karaoke is as slickly produced as anything else out there on late night TV.

Those creepy dancing twin girls would also make an appearance. And there'd be a gun. My imaginary emoji recap is appealing because it's incredibly hard to come away from a blockbuster hour of television like "Chapter Forty-Four" and pull together coherent thoughts that aren't just "AHHH!" or "WHY would you get ICE for the DAMN CHAMPAGNE?!" or "OMG FACE OFF MASK!" or "Why isn't all of life just Jane and Rogelio doing that father/daughter dance forever?" But I'll give it a try. Jane the Virgin 's season finale is a narrative fireworks display, a shock-and-awe storytelling spectacular that short-circuits emotional processing centers with blazing confidence. It drops j
