But while many mourned the famous duo’s end, others found humor in the situation. A few of the late night hosts were also quick to jump on the [Hiddleswift](http://motto.time.com/4393288/twitter-hiddelswift-theories/) bandwagon, with James Corden and Stephen Colbert both running segments about the breakup during Wednesday night’s episodes of _The Late Late Show_ and _The Late Show_, respectively. Corden began his opening monologue by announcing the news, cracking a joke about the focus of Swift’s next album. “As soon as Taylor’s band heard about the breakup they were like,’yeah yeah, we know — we’re headed to the studio now.'” Colbert went a bit of a different route, choosing to perform a song called “Taylor, Tom and Me” about how the breakup had affected him personally. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/4483742/taylor-swift-tom-hiddleston-breakup-james-corden-stephen-colbert-hiddleswift/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/4483742/taylor-swift-tom-hiddleston-breakup-james-corden-stephen-colbert-hiddleswift/"},"headline":"Watch James Corden and Stephen Colbert Mourn the Hiddleswift Breakup","datePublished":"2016-09-08T15:26:15.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:36:17.031Z","description":"\"I've got bad blood with amour\"","url":"https://time.com/4483742/taylor-swift-tom-hiddleston-breakup-james-corden-stephen-colbert-hiddleswift/","keywords":["Newsfeed","Television","celebrities","Taylor Swift","stephen colbert","TV","the late show","Tom Hiddleston","The Late Late Show","james corden","The Late Late Show with James Corden","the late show with stephen colbert"],"thumbnailUrl":"","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Megan McCluskey","jobTitle":"Staff Writer","url":"https://time.com/author/megan-mccluskey/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/4483742/taylor-swift-tom-hiddleston-breakup-james-corden-stephen-colbert-hiddleswift/","name":"Watch James Corden and Stephen Colbert Mourn the Hiddleswift Breakup"}}]}] ```
