It’s been a bumpy ride to air so far for Apple Music’s long-promised Carpool Karaoke: The Series, but things finally showed signs of being on track Wednesday night (June 22) when creator James Corden provided a sneak peek at the anticipated spin-off on The Late Late Show. The preview featured Girls Trip co-stars Queen Latifah and Jada Pinkett Smith jamming in traffic to Prince‘s “Let’s Go Crazy.”
The pair slammed on the brakes as Latifah joked that maybe the series — which is currently slated to debut on Aug. 8 — should be called “Car Crash Pool Karaoke.” Joined by castmates Regina Hall and Tiffany Haddish, Smith and Latifah pulled out the bullhorns and t-shirt cannons to encourage fellow drivers to go see the comedy, which opens July 21. And, of course, they sang a bit of Cyndi Lauper‘s “Girls Just Wanna Have Fun.”
