James Corden's White House tour took an unthinkable turn last night with First Lady Michelle Obama joining him for a drive around the grounds singing Stevie Wonder and Beyonce. Surprise guest Missy Elliott drops in to sing "This Is For My Girls," which was executive produced by AOL MAKERS in support of Let Girls Learn, the non-profit organization that President Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama founded to ensure that every girl in the world has access to education.

This Is For My Girls is available to download on iTunes where 100% of the proceeds benefit the Let Girls Learn Peace Corps Fund: https://itunes.apple.com/us/album/this-is-for-my-girls/id1093266044?i=1093266053

James Corden, serves as host of CBS's THE LATE LATE SHOW. Since Corden took the reigns as host in March 2015, he has quickly become known for generating buzzworthy viral videos, such as Carpool Karaoke and his mix of celebrity guests, edgy musical acts, games and sketches. Corden differentiates his show by offering viewers a peek behind-the-scenes into the green room, bringing all of his guests out at once and lending his musical and acting talents to various sketches.

He recently starred opposite Meryl Streep, Johnny Depp and Emily Blunt in the Golden Globe Award-nominated feature film INTO THE WOODS. Additionally, Corden has hosted the BAFTA Award-winning UK sports-themed comedy game show "A League of Their Own" and starred in, produced and wrote the BAFTA nominated comedy thriller "The Wrong Mans." In 2013, Corden was awarded the Royal Television Society Award for Comedy Writer of the Year for his work on the show.
