L.A. is pretty far from Rydell High, but Danny Zuko (played by Corden) and Sandy Dumbrowski were still able to rekindle their summer loving, which happened so fast, they were able to get the bulk of the song out while the crosswalk still said “Walk.” The audience (read: drivers waiting at the light) were seemingly entertained by the show, so long as the songs ended when the light turned green. When Corden held a note in “Greased Lightning” a little too long, horns were wailing louder than he was. Despite the honking, Corden still managed to stick around for his bow. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/3810547/james-corden-grease-intersection/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/3810547/james-corden-grease-intersection/"},"headline":"Watch James Corden Take Over an Intersection With a Grease Performance","datePublished":"2015-04-08T14:27:01.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:18:29.016Z","description":"Tell me more, tell me more, did he get hit by a car?","url":"https://time.com/3810547/james-corden-grease-intersection/","keywords":["Newsfeed","Television","Late late show","Late Night Television","james corden"],"thumbnailUrl":"","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Melissa Locker","jobTitle":"","url":"https://time.com/author/melissa-locker/"}],"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/3810547/james-corden-grease-intersection/","name":"Watch James Corden Take Over an Intersection With a Grease Performance"}}]}] ```
