After all, she has her own NBC show dedicated to finding masters of the form, _World of Dance,_ not to mention her now-legendary turns in music videos and onstage in [her energetic shows](http://time.com/4688428/j-lo-dance-battle/). But in Monday night’s Primetime [Carpool Karaoke](http://time.com/4724651/steph-curry-on-carpool-karaoke/) Special with James Corden, Lopez got down in an entirely new way: with a toddler as her committed instructor. The ever-game Lopez and an eager-to-learn Corden were treated to a “toddlerography” lesson, from which Lopez discovered some entirely unexpected choreography taught by an adorable, tiny child. This is Lopez’s second go-round on the show with Corden. Last year, the duo [texted Leonardo DiCaprio](http://time.com/4275958/jennifer-lopez-james-corden-carpool-karaoke/) from Lopez’s phone while doing their carpool, leading to a [hilarious exchange](http://time.com/4768708/jlo-james-corden-leo-dicaprio/) involving DiCaprio’s offer to take Lopez out for a night on the town. (She ultimately did not end up taking him up on the plan, but it did make for quite an amusing back-and-forth. Luckily, she later shared that he [“wasn’t mad at all”](http://time.com/4768708/jlo-james-corden-leo-dicaprio/) about the on-air prank.) “Toddlerography” is another recurring segment for Corden; in the past, he’s featured celebrities like [Jenna Dewan Tatum](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IK%5F8AQSkudk), Kate Hudson, and [Jason DeRulo](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZVEVLwhz0J0). ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/4785144/jennifer-lopez-carpool-karaoke-toddler/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/4785144/jennifer-lopez-carpool-karaoke-toddler/"},"headline":"Watch Jennifer Lopez Dance Her Way Through This Carpool Karaoke Special","datePublished":"2017-05-23T06:14:17.000Z","dateModified":"2023-12-13T07:55:33.000Z","description":"In Monday night's Primetime Carpool Karaoke Special with James Corden, Lopez got down in an entirely new way","url":"https://time.com/4785144/jennifer-lopez-carpool-karaoke-toddler/","keywords":["Newsfeed","viral","dance","Jennifer Lopez","Late Night Television","carpool karaoke"],"thumbnailUrl":"","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Raisa Bruner","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/raisa-bruner/"}],"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/4785144/jennifer-lopez-carpool-karaoke-toddler/","name":"Watch Jennifer Lopez Dance Her Way Through This Carpool Karaoke Special"}}]}] ```
