The Internet had its fun with Beyoncé's Lemonade, creating hilarious memes that mocked the heavy-hearted themes. But come Monday evening, the late-night hosts had some fun.
James Corden parodied Bey's debatably autobiographical album on The Late Late Show with a segment called Lemonjames. Instead of having a visual album, Corden created a visual monologue in which he walks viewers through the struggles of having to create a new introduction night after night.
"This is in the news. That's in the news. What else is in the news?" Corden asked deeply while kneeling in front of a red curtain. "You guys see this? Do you guys see...me?"
There were also images of him walking in a hoodie through an overgrown field. Corden took his visual monologue into the bathroom with him, where he cleansed himself in the tub.
"I don't want to do another [Donald] Trump joke," he mused. "I've exhausted that topic."
He continued, "Doing Trump jokes makes me feel dirty. Do you know what else makes me feel dirty? This bathtub."
Despite feeling "dirty," Corden continued to make Trump jokes in his slow, yet rhythmic tone. The camera panned through a forest while Corden's voice could be heard in the voice over talking about a Texas school that is being renamed after the presidential hopeful.
"The school immediately filed for bankruptcy," he joked, without a touch of humor in his foice."
Eventually Corden put on a blond, curly wig and started making other jokes. He said an ice cream shop opened up in a former funeral home. "It's called Casket Robbins," he quipped.
"Does that make you laugh like Jimmy with the good hair?"
But his parody wouldn't be complete without some actual lemonade. Sitting in a bra, Corden gave his recipe for the sweet stuff.
"Two pints of water, 8 juicy ass lemons, one cup of sugar, another cup of sugar, you know what another cup of sugar," he instructed. "Actually this is too much work. Can someone just go out and get me a lemonade?"
Like Beyoncé, Corden also got his hands on a baseball bat. To see what happens, watch the clip!
But Corden wasn't the only late-night host to get in on the fun; Stephen Colbert also weighed in by creating his own parody on The Late Show. Wearing an all-yellow ensemble, Corden happily dances around a room with a huge grin on his face as he takes a baseball bat and destroys everything around him. Instead of "hot sauce," however, his bat says "mayonnaise."
We see what you did there, Colbert.
