<p>The late-night chat show is off-air due to the coronavirus pandemic, with an emotional Corden admitting to suffering “spikes of anxiety and sadness” amid the global health crisis.</p>
<p>In the absence of a regular programme, Corden hosted Homefest: A Late Late Show Special, welcoming stars including John Legend, Will Ferrell, Billie Eilish, Dua Lipa and K-pop band BTS, among others.</p>

<p><em>“We just wanted to bring some joy and some music into your home at what is without a question one of the strangest and scariest moments in all our lives,”</em> Corden said from a makeshift studio set up in his garage.</p>
<p>Grammy Award-winning singer Legend and his wife Chrissy Teigen were first to appear, joining via a livestream from their home.</p>
<p>Legend said being quarantined had given him a greater appreciation of the job teachers do, after having to look after his and Teigen’s two young children.</p>
<p>He then performed a song on the piano. British pop star Lipa appeared from her flat in London and was joined by her band for a rendition of her hit single Don’t Start Now.</p>

<p>Eilish and her brother Finneas O’Connell performed Everything I Wanted, with the help of a piano. Hollywood star Ferrell joined the show for a segment on hand washing.</p>
<p><em>“I have been washing my hands obsessively,”</em> the Step Brothers star said from what appeared to be his kitchen. In a nod to the 20-second rule, the comedian then sang his favourite songs to sing while cleaning his hands.</p>
<p>They included Careless Whisper by George Michael, Chandelier by Sia and Snoop Dogg’s Drop It Like It’s Hot.</p>
<p>David Blaine, the illusionist, also appeared via video link and performed card tricks for a stunned Corden.</p>

<p>In a tribute to Italy, which has been ravaged by coronavirus, revered opera singer Andrew Bocelli described life in quarantine.</p>
<p><em>“We are here altogether. Sometimes it’s nice and sometime’s it’s boring but we must do it,”</em> he said. Bocelli also performed his song Con te partiro.</p>
<p>BTS, one of the world’s most popular groups, appeared from their native South Korea, with singer RM saying of the pandemic: <em>“It may seem like we’re isolated but we’re still connected.”</em></p>
<p>Closing out the show, Corden addressed the audience and told of his struggles during the pandemic.</p>
<p><em>“I’ve found it tougher than I ever thought I would,”</em> he said. <em>“I found myself having these incredible spikes of anxiety and sadness when I allowed myself to think about my family back home in England, or my friends, or the people I love.</em></p>
<p><em>“You feel so out of control. It feels so out of our comprehension, all of it. I found I get sort of overwhelmed with the sadness, really.”</em></p>
<p>The Cats star added: <em>“It’s OK to feel anxious. The best thing we can all do is kind of breathe through that and put our minds in a positive place.”</em></p>
