Demi Lovato found herself singing her latest Confident single, the powerful ballad Stone Cold, in an unusual setting recently when The Late Late Show With James Corden moved its production to a randomly selected house in the Los Angeles area. The singer belted the tune, accompanied by a grand piano, ina home belonging to four people named Natalie, Taylor, Melodie and Adam.
Corden had begun the show by going door-to-door, trying to find people who would allow him to shoot his late-night show in their homes. After being denied by a few other locals, the foursome welcomed the host, music director Reggie Watts and the shows crew into their home. Additionally, Corden brought guests Colin Farrell, Wanda Sykes and veteran animal wrangler Jack Hanna with him.
Before the singing performance, Corden asked Lovato whether she was more nervous about singing at the Grammys or at what ultimately became hashtagged #NataliesHouse. Natalies house, no comparison, Lovato said. When youre in a huge arena, I look out in the audience and its easier in a sense. When youre in a small environment, if you suck, the persons two feet away from you and theyre looking at you like youre doing a terrible job.
At one point, Corden played hide and seek with the guests in the house. Lovato hid upstairs, behind a curtain where the roommates store all of [their] extra shit, one said. Shed attempted to hide herself behind a musical tie.
