Justin Bieber’s Lyrics Make For the Perfect Soap Opera


What do soap operas and Justin Bieber songs have in common? Drama, heartbreak, and as of Tuesday night, a sketch on The Late Late Show with James Corden.

On his late night talk show, Corden brought together Salma Hayek Pinault, Ray Romano and Gary Oldman to perform a soap opera with dialogue exclusively from the Bieb’s songs. Some of the songs referenced are “Boyfriend,” “Sorry,” ”Baby” and “Love Yourself.” There’s even a shout-out to One Direction when Ray Romano accidentally quotes “Steal My Girl” instead of a JB song.

The Justin Bieber soap opera, aptly titled The Bold and the Lyrical, is brilliantly hilarious, and we can only hope for more installments in the future.
