The beauty of Beyoncé’s epic hour-long visual album has touched every corner of the world, including The Late Show host Stephen Colbert.

For all of you eager to see Corden in bra and panties doing a Beyoncé impression, this video is for you.
‘I tried to write a monologue for you night after night even when we don’t have a show, ‘ he whispers in an American accent. He sits in a bathtub, Lemonade style, and shares, “I don’t want to do another Trump joke”.
Meanwhile, while internet flew into a frenzy, James Corden cashed in on the buzz, creating an equally hilarious and disturbing parody video of Queen Bee’s new project.
Beyoncé premiered Lemonade on HBO on Saturday before it was rolled out on Tidal and iTunes. I’ve exhausted that topic.
It starts with A Visual Monologue before a Donald Trump joke then A New Study as opposed to Bey’s Anger And Apathy.
In the clip he also replaces the infamous line from Lemonade about “Becky with the good hair” to “Does that make you laugh like Jimmy with the good hair?” a nod to rival TV host Jimmy Fallon. After telling another joke, he adds: “Did that make you laugh, baby?”

If “Lemonade” is anything, it’s a tale of empowerment for black women, so CBS’ “The Late Show” made a decision to lean into the awkwardness of having Colbert analyze the album’s greater themes and focused exclusively on translating “Lemonade” as a white man at his white man-iest.
