Epic Carpool Karaoke sees James Corden and Celine Dion 'go full Titanic'

James Corden has raised the bar for his Carpool Karaoke on The Late Late Show as he recreated one of the most famous scenes from Titanic alongside Celine Dion.

Former Gavin and Stacey star Corden had arrived in Las Vegas, where 51-year-old Canadian singer Dion has a concert residency.

His late night show was given a primetime special and he pulled out all the stops to make it one of the more memorable Carpool Karaoke moments.

After performing duets of hits including All Coming Back To Me Now, the pair left the car behind and took to the pool outside the Caesars Palace hotel in a small boat to reenact the "I'm flying" scene from Titanic.

Corden, wearing a wig resembling Leonardo DiCaprio's curtain hairstyle from the film, stood behind Dion at the boat's bow while she played Kate Winslet's role from the 1997 film.

As Dion's Titanic hit My Heart Will Go On played, Dion dropped a blue locket into the water, in another reference to James Cameron's romantic epic.

It wasn't all Titanic references though as Dion had earlier admitted that her shoe collection may be topping 10,000 pairs of designer footwear.

There was one way of reducing this mountain of shoes and Corden decided to hand out some of Dion's shoes to passers-by on the street.

Just to show her versatility and that she has her finger on the pulse of today's music scene, Dion performed a dramatic rendition of the viral children's song Baby Shark.

On a more sombre note, Dion discussed the downsides of her global fame.
