It seems like not since flash mobs were invented in 2003 and began to pick up on popularity in the decade following has a flash mob caused so much discussion and conversation than the one recently executed by James Corden, Camila Cabello, Billy Porter, and Idina Menzel to promote their new adaptation of Cinderella did.
This isn’t the first time we’ve seen what appears to be the Crosswalk the Musical segment on The Late Late Show with James Corden. This time, a video has been around showing the behind-the-scenes of the segment, pissing people on the road off. The video really rubbed people the wrong way.
The idea behind the segment is more or less straightforward—the group donned cheap costumes and sang and danced in Los Angeles traffic to Jennifer Lopez’s “Let’s Get Loud”—but the internet’s reaction to the shenanigans would suggest that something much more nefarious had gone down.
As you can see, the response was generally quite negative, to say the least. Corden and Cabello’s Cinderella will be released on September 3rd and we’re not sure when and if the segment will see light of day.
