Watch Kanye West Soap Opera Starring Bryan Cranston, James Corden


Bryan Cranston, James Corden and Giovanni Ribisi battle for Jessica Biels heart in a goofy Late Late Show sketch, The Bold and the Lyrical, with dialogue comprised completely of Kanye West lyrics.

The bit begins with a priest (bandleader Reggie Watts) officiating the wedding of Cranston and Biel. Diamonds are forever, the bride-to-be tells her future husband, who responds by mimicking the rappers hilarious babbling Forever-ever? on Diamonds From Sierra Leone. A fake-drunk Corden crashes the event in a jealous rage, shouting lyrics from Runaway: Lets have a toast for the douchebags/ Lets have a toast for the assholes, he grumbles, begging Biel, Run away fast as you can.

From there, the lyric drops arrive in quick succession, as the characters reference tracks like Monster, Heartless, Gold Digger and All Falls Down. Corden pulls Biel off the stage, telling her, Get down, girl. Go head, get down. But shes broken up about her decision, calling herself a motherfucking monster.

The scene comes to an awkward halt when Cranston notes that he made that bitch, Biel, famous. His scene partners break character to berate the actor: that is genuine Kanye West lyrics. Cranston also delivers the scenes only non-Kanye lyric, mistakenly tossing out the chorus of Drakes Hotline Bling.

Ribisi arrives complicates the situation with his own romantic plea, but the trio eventually realize Biel is a gold digger, departing with the rallying cry, We want pre-nup!
