So which Les Mis character are you auditioning for?
James: Yes
Haha true
Best comment!
Meh if I could it would be cossete
Soooo true! 😂😂😂
Omgodness!! Best comment on the thread!! Lol!
I feel like 50% of his budget was spent on bread 😂
0,87 euro/ baguette. Yeah could be!
It's not even good bread :/
Right?! 🤣
***AS IT SHOULD***
jajajajaja
I just want to point out that they shot this on the Victor Hugo avenue, the name of the author of les Miserables... Brillant
ahh nice
Wowww
No, it’s Avenue Carnot. There’s no hotel nor cafe in the beginning of Avenue Victor Hugo. There’s Celine and a pharmacy.
😀💞 🇫🇷 🥐 🥖
@@alekablandine4946
Actually it’s Rue Carnot. 😉
“It’s actually French for sad lesbians” 😂😂😂😂 I died
Me in a nutshell
It killed me 😂😂😂 I couldn't even object. I wouldn't want to.
For those who pronounce it Lez Mizerablez
Soo that’s why it’s my fav musical
I tried translating it and it came up with wretched lol
the “the french revolution happened for one purpose... to create les miserable the musical” killed me
Marie Shenk Sorry to be the history geek that breaks this to you, but much of Les Mis is set in 1832. The French Revolution began in 1789, over 40 years earlier. Les Mis is not set during the French Revolution. Love James and Crosswalk the Musical anyway. 😁
@@avasophia1859 my thoughts exactly.
@@avasophia1859 It's about the June Rebellion lol, but everyone thinks it's the Revolution.
I just did a project on it, it’s actually the July Revolution.
Don't you worry, us french had plenty of revolutions going on during the XIXth century, i get the confusion
i actually want to see one of these crosswalk musicals in real life now
eleven Sign me up as well
Aladin was cute 😍😍
People lose patience easily especially while driving, but people just need to pay attention to what is happening before losing it
Same!
me too 😀.
Watching this as a French person is the best. Plus I know parisian must have been so angry at them and i'm living for everyone who can piss them off ( which is a lot)
Best comment by far lol
Why do french people and writers not from paris (and even from paris) hate parisians that much? 😂
Are they stuck-up or something?
@@markhegedus1981 Obviously not every parisian is bad but most of them are really stuck pretentious just bc they live in Paris. They think they’re better than the rest of us cause they live in the capital. Plus they’re really rude. I have a parisian friend and she told the same thing so as you said even some parisian think that way. In the end it all comes down to their enormous ego about living in the city of light which is always full of traffic but you can’t be late so smthg like what Corden did which takes seconds away from parisian the little time they got must have pissed them off
Oui c'est fou comme Paris dans le monde est vue comme une ville merveilleuse, magnifique, mais quand tu vis là ou dans la banlieue (j'veux dire par là les départements à côté) tu vois absolument pas les côtés positifs, mais vraiment juste la merde que représente cette ville
It's hilarious because this sort of stunt would be well-received by Londoners - anything and everything can happen in London. While across the Channel, Parisians just get pissed off LOL.
“We’re British...”
“OH THANK GOD! STOP IT!”
I just died 😂
& he immediately changed out of the stereotypical french outfit 😂
Imagine training your entire life to be an actor only to book a job where James Corden throws bread at your head and screams at you in French lol
@jenny
I'm honored
😂
these were croissants tho
I would take that in a second
Something tells me not a single Parisian appreciated a French musical being performed on the streets of Paris.... in English.
I do! I am parisian, and laughed so hard! all the true clichés are there! Corden is a genius, j'adore!
especially with baguettes instead of muskets
I’m french and I can assure you nearly no one knows this musical in France. They know the novel by Victor Hugo. I’m kind of ashamed of the people in the video being angry and everything instead of enjoying the show.
You should know that a some musicals and shows are playing in English in Paris and french people come to see it! Last month was Mamma Mia!, now it's Funny Girl and in December An American in Paris
Sarah Hamilfan Well, no. It’s not based on the French concept album, it’s adapted from the French concept album, most of the songs are the same. And the first stage production was in French and in France. So it’s arguably a French musical. But French people don’t really like musicals and don’t really like when their cultural and famous novels are turned into something else, especially this one which tells a part of our history. So they turned their back on a masterpiece of a musical, which thankfully was made even better and acclaimed by the British people.
“Well statistically some of those miserables would be lesbians so we’re both right...” 😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
"If a building is on fire, you've got to get there. But if a show is on fire, don't put that out in the process."
I admire James Corden for being so dedicated in his work. He gives his 200% in everything he does.
@@philchao huhh?
@@lejdhirsaega4842 exactly! Quite confusing don't you think?
@@prissyclement4337 Yeah. What I did was just comment
@@lejdhirsaega4842 he is just so precious. Have a good day!
Especially when he’s smithy
*finishes watching*
hmmmm.... maybe just ONE PLAY MOOOOOOOORE
better be james .
*Adds to Les Mis playlist for maximum replayability*
I'm so garbage for Les Mis you could say I belong in the marvelous Paris sewer system.
You've got a fan from Malaysia! 🇲🇾😍
you’re amazing
Just amazing.... from a mexican fan
“It’s the North Korean Flag”
“Is that the bad one?”
James I- 😂
ROFL
I love how she hid it behind her back
"Well, build a bridge"
“And likely, the ONLY French musical...”
Beauty and the Beast and Hunchback of Notre Dame: Are we a joke to you?
AND Phantom of the Opera 😂
that was a joke, baby
I think what James is made by the french. Beauty and the Beast, Hunchback of Notre Dame is french, but their movie and musical versions is certainly made by Disney or writers in Broadway. Phantom of the Opera on the other hand is a french novel, but the musical is made by Andrew Lloyd Webber.
Never!!! WE are the joke!
@@redxavier8035 Actually, "Hunchback of Notre Dame" is also a french novel by the same author as "les misérables", Victor Hugo.
Also, it exists some french musical in french...
I really really wish a mama mia crosswalk
I do too. What about a Love Never Dies crosswalk?
That's what I want too
Eristine Forever samee
In Greece please
S T A R Thank you. (I take a bow)
In this version Jean Valjean didnt steal just one loaf of bread. He robbed the whole bakery.😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂
oh my gOD HAHAH
'' Pierre why where you late for work?? ''
'' I - I - I can't explain.... ''
So no one is going to tell him Les Mis isn’t about the French Revolution
It’s a comedy sketch. Who cares.
@Mr Walrus Wow. You’re really clever and witty.
Whaaat it wasnt about french revolution?
@@phantomtq it’s abkut the June Rebellion not revolution, it’s a very common misconception
@@Ellasnaps yeah rebellion since it wanst successful. Mistook the word
Most underrated quote: Le pain is mightier than the sword
That's actually how roman emperors kept the people quiet, they just gave them bread and games (games as in gladiator fights and public executions) and there would be way less crime and stuff.
@@MrTr0n it's also a pun on "the pen ✍is mightier than the sword 🔪" as well as the ancient Roman 🏟 bread 🍞 & circuses 🎪🎪 🤡
“I’LL SEE YOU IN COURT!” I DIED 😂😂
😂😂😂me too
North Korean flag 🤣
"The bad one"
... Then build a bridge 😂
DIDNT UNDERSTAND WHY HE SAID BUILD A BRIDGE
It is sad that there won't be more of these. James Corden's genius brings such joy.
Unappreciated by so many. I miss him already.
Why did the cancel the show anyway? It was so popular.
@@priscillateo1691 Corden fulfilled his contract and wanted to give his children a taste of English culture. His kids have lived in America their entire lives. The oldest was four when they moved to L.A.
So who’s gonna tell him that Les Miserables isn’t about the French Revolution
Well it's about a revolution in France
I just found out that it was about the June 1832 rebellion🤦🏽♀️
A lot of people mistaken for the French revolution.
I KNOW RIGHT????!!!!
Its failed french revolution
the french were NOT having it. It's hilarious
ChechuBrz they are very unfriendly. No happy people.
please don't mistake french and parisians TWO VERY DIFFERENT SPECIES
I mean les miserables the musical isn't as much of a big thing in France. Everybody knows the book but not the music so that can explain it
@@malifeli and I guess that you know French culture very well to say that...
The book of Les Misérables is studied by every french people in school whereas the musical which is in english, so not understandable for all is not known at all. Moreover, as much as I love it, the musical it is not faithfull to the original story, and usually mess up with history. (like at the begining of the video they mention the revolution of 1789, whereas the story beginns in 1815 and only talks about 1832 riots that failed). That can explain the lack of enthusiasm of people.
"Le pain... is mightier than the sword."
That killed me! Perfect with James's straightfaced delivery
Too bad bread is not substituted in our 2nd amendment.
James : " I'll see you in court"
Me : *Died laughing* 😂😂
This may be my new favorite Crosswalk the Musical. The reaction of the Parisians was priceless.
Susann Jarvis yes 🤣🤣🤣🤣
New York might be used to this but Paris and not so much LOL! 😝
If there’s anything Parisians love, it’s loud foreigners impeding traffic with bad French accents and show tunes 😂
And messing with baguettes. Bring the guillotine! 😂
Amy Shanahan Great! 😂
and making a mockery of a classic French novel by singing in English in downtown Paris. Even Victor Hugo wouldn't be impressed
@@shostakovich99 Downtown Paris? It's not downtown Manhattan. It's the Right Bank of Paris. Arc de Triomphe.
@@shostakovich99 actually he might love it. He was very much against classical elitism
The fact I was most likely in Paris when this was filmed and missed this masterpiece brings me great sorrow
I love the shots of confused or disgusted Parisians. 😂
its soooooooo hilarious and gratifying to see
What about the ones trying to ignore him soliciting them outside the subway?
it's fabulously funny ...the more disgusted they get the better and funnier it becomes !!
Every time I think about the fact that the round of cars there for the curtain call saw absolutely none of the musical and are the MOST confused of anyone.
Teacher: so when you grow up? What is your dream?
Me: perform with James Corden in Crossway Musical
Me: get on crosswalk musical and ignore the f*ck outta James
* be James Corden
aditiawardana aditiawardana ooft 1000th like
@@ItsmeJuliaB eww, who'd wanna be him? so not funny at all, always tryna act cool and stuff, duh just feel like punching him
sparkyinsane you clearly have the unpopular opinion here. You must be Young or you obviously don’t get comedy if you think he’s “trying to be cool” 😂
This is so 2019! Before COVID19 and Social Distancing. Damn, I miss it.
I live in France as a foreigner and can totally understand how the parisiens feel like when they found British people singing on the road in English🤣 I’ll never be brave enough to do this in France, especially in Paris😂
Hurry up and get Eurostar!! Vite vite vite!
Okay this show is hilarious but James is so underrated I mean in "I dreamed a dream" he ABSOLUTELY KILLED IT
Yesss
Yaaaasss. That falsetto at the end when he was 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
I know, he did that in the middle of champs Elysées
Yes he did
Came here to say the exact same thing!!!
The french are probably thinking: "Ohh these weird British people." XD
Yes, that's true
But it's very funny 😂
(I'm french)
No we love extra, british people don't gives a fuck and personally i love it XD
Izzy The Great lmao bruh some of them looked disgusted
never thought that in ww1 and ww2 when we saved them a fact:)
Ohhh oui c'est ce que je pense en regardant cette vidéo XD
When the drama club goes on a trip to France
A Phantom of the Opera crosswalk... IN FRONT OF THE PARIS OPERA HOUSE
James Corden cutting his hair as the prostitute- throws off the wig, only to reveal A SECOND shorter wig... How he never breaks character is genius! Meanwhile I was rolling with laughter!!! 😂😂😂
I caught that but, I didn't know the significance of it. This was hilarious!
🤣😂😆
Crosswalk Musicals are the most obnoxious yet hilarious and entertaining videos ever! Love them 😂
And it’s worse in Paris, because protesters blocking sidewalks is an actual problem there
“Obnoxious” - tee hee
Charlotte S I preferred Aladdin because Will Smith put Jim in his place kind of.
We need a Crosswalk musical “Wicked!”
His shape, musical singing, craziness... so much like Cameron in the Modern Family😆
“I’LL SEE YOU IN COURT”
That was honestly hilarious
Edit: Thanks for all the likes
Love that
@@nc339 Yes it's paris where people deal with each other in courts like human beings and don't shoot each other on the streets like in USA. :D
@@Yusso Wow you're so funny.
When does he say that
Helin Jaff 9:50 when he gets on the car
When he said "Bonjour" at 0:23, I nearly expected him to continue singing the Beauty and the Beast opening.
Same here😂
Just seeing the Parisians being indignated by looking at them raising baguettes as swords it’s just hilarious 😂🤣😂🤣😂
don't touch our national treasure !!
The fact he can make someone's day is just awesome, I always see these crosswalks whenever I have a bad day or if I am really nervous.
Agree I had a bad day 'til I watched Crosswalks
I work like 5 minutes away from there and I didn't see it. I'm GUTTED
same
I live 7,900 kilometers away. What a shame
Honestly i'm shoked nobody got run over knowing how french drivers are 😂
R A C I A L P R O F I L I N G
came here to write this hahaha
Parisian drivers* ;)
French drivers are totally fine... Parisian drivers might be another story.
barack brahms, that’s pretty racist
I’m hooked, binging on Crosswalk Musicals . People need a sense of humour and lighten up....cant stop smiling
Don't know how many times I've watched this, it's my go-to when I'm feeling down. It never fails to make me cry with laughter. Thanks James!
Yes, I think this is the best version of Crosswalk the musical…so funny/good!
This mans really out here living his best Life 👏🏼👏🏼🙏🏼 how can you not love James!!!
That's it... Can only hate him those who actually hate their life 😭😭😂😂😂
Because we, french, all protest by throwing croissants, brioche, baguettes, it's well known
I would take it as a compliment if someone threw bread at me! 🥖 love bread! Lol
Don’t forget l’escargot
@@emilyhuber73 not the l`escargot! Lol
What about cake????
at that time period, the bread would have just been picked up by some beggars or something
“Well, build a bridge.” Hahahaha
Phenomenon of the world
How the hell does James not get sued?
He’s fricken jumping on strangers cars!
He said “see you in court” 😂
He's just too loveable to actually sue! 😆
If James Corden stood on my car and started singing, I would consider it a very good day 🤣
He mostlikely got a permit to do it. If he didnt he would be arrested by now. Also i think he said "see you in court!" As a joke TT
It's hilarious how James Corden inserts his name in almost every show he does. 😂😂
What can you say the guy loves himself too much. 😂😂😂🤣
You still sucking on this mate 🖕🖕 @lejdhirsaega
you’re kinda missing the point, hes taking the piss
*”There is a life about to start when tomorrow CARS! CARS! CARS!”*
After James jumped off the hood of the car "I'll see you in court!" Then running towards the sidewalk
Watching this, as a french girl, makes me laugh so much. Parisians do not seem very nice but, for sure, he might makes their day a little bit funnier. I hope James and the dancers had a good experience with baguettes and croissants ! You are a genius, James, keep doing !
PS: Les Misérables is not about French Revolution but about June Rebellion in 1832, an other "revolution" less unknown than the one of 1789. But even french people make mistakes about it :)
i love how he gives his 110% percent on everything like bruv
What is bruv ?
( i'm trying learn english becouse england not only take the folkland and take too the continent )
@Anica Ames it is short for brother. like bro
Thank so much
@Anica Ames London Street slang
“There’s a life about to start when tomorrow CARS-!!”
lol😂😂
Lmao the guy beeping at James cuz he was on his car
I feel bad for the horse dude, my man was just trying to ride his horse
“And now, crosswalk the musical...” 😂
Also your energy is just astounding. How are you so endlessly creative, hilarious and talented?!?
"Non, non! Absolument non!" - James Corden 2019 XD
It is corden
@@rbiahsoofi Thanks for correcting me, it is done. ;)
@@GalaxyRoyal Yes. The way he tries to speak french is hilarious
"And unless I'm mistaken, only french musical of all time."
Beauty and the Beast & Phantom of the Opera...
Well during the 60s a french musical" the umbrellas of cherbourg" had quite a success in the UK
Amelie
Neither of those are written by French composers tho… try Notre Dame de Paris.
What would there boss say when they’re like “I’m late because James cordon was performing les mis in the street” ?!
Please do 'Hamilton the musical in New york' next?
kmanekh hanjamkmanek yes PLEASE!
OMG!! YES!!!
Oh yes!!! Pleaaaaaaase! Don't throw away your shot!
kmanekh hanjamkmanek YEEEEES
Word!!!!
The Frenchy haven't a bloody clue what's going on. 🤣🤣
It's so damn cute tho!😂😍
Lol most of them aren't even French, just tourists.
James' humor is so.... I can't even describe it cause I'm chocking from laughter
8:06 Their media be like: THERE IS A WITCH IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREETS.
"James Corden Kidnaps An Old Asain Man" (the musical)
Chloe Pattison-Conrad 😂
Yeah, that poor polite Asian person. XD
He was so sweet about this weird dude in drag!
james as fantine literally looked like a budget jesus
Jessica Lan omg this comment literally made my day 😂😂😂😂😂
洪悅庭 HAHAHA ❤️
HAHAHAHHAHA
jokes aside,, the fact that they were able to make a “barricade” and bring it to the road is amazing.
My Dumb self thought he was gonna do bad singing I Dreamed A Dream
Boy I was wrong.
You should do hairspray in Baltimore and Hamilton in New York
Namjoon’s Knees hairspray would be excellentttt. Good morning Baltimore!!!
O M G yes!!!!!!!
And Chicago in Chicago lol
Or Cry-Baby/Baltimore!
Yes!! Hairspray!!!
You should do ABBA the crosswalk musical in Stockholm
Mamma Mia would be great
Or bohemian rhapsody
or Mamma Mia in Greece
ILana Garza hold on there trying to get James to come to me!!
Ja
No matter how insane James is, you can’t deny he is good in singing
I love how he's the last to leave the crosswalk and waited for everyone to pass him before going all the way to the sidewalk.
I swear James is the best thing to happen to late night. He deserves all the success he's getting & more. Crosswalk the musical is by far my favorite segment
Nobody: ...
James: les miserables is actually the lesbians 😂😂
I called them _The Sad Lesbians_ if we're gonna take it there
johnson543 Actually it was James that said that if we’re gonna take it there
I Love how tese guys enjoy the show and are confident enough. It is a great team work, the actors, the scene, the dresses, the scripts, the cameras and microphones, everything is just a piece of art. People don’t realize the amount of work this has, probably months. And besides, they remain still confident and happy besides the fact that people are ignoring them, or angry at them or just grumpy. I think it is a reflection of what Paris is in real life. When I was a child I dreamed about Paris, and when I finally went I experienced more like what we see in this video.
Les Misérables is literally one of the best musicals I have ever seen. Let's just say seeing this made my day! 🇫🇷😂😀
So just imagine arriving at work late and having to say: yea, sorry I'm late, there was a musical in the middle of the street, couldn't get past...
Now THAT'S a thought 😂😂😂
It's Paris, you expect people to block traffic. Usually it's a strike of some sort though.
James, the way you speak French is so funny " vive le France ! " 😂😂
Absolument non !
Juliette Rousselle “absolutement non!” Lmao
Oui señor
XD cross walk la musicAL
Mais tellement 😂
Doctor: you 12 minutes to live
Me: *watches this video so i may at least die happily*
I love James Corden. He brings the sun in my house and my heart. Thank you so much!!!
When James said " I'll see in court" that was hilariously funny 😂😂😂😂 This is why i love James 😘
Best line of the show
The best part of this is probably that cars in frace are not holy possesions but really its customary to push other cars with your own to make more parking space. So the guy wasn't really upset about the car pe se, but more about a fat ENGLISH singing guy kneeling on his hood.
I love that james is sooo extra in every crosswalk videos 😂😂
Historically, he was wrong but entertaining wise he was spot on.
James is just living out his musical dreams
I actually enjoyed James singing I dreamed a dream. He sounds great!
right?! i was singing along with him! its right in his vocal range apparently, and he slayed it
Pinkie Tart yes, he’s very talented!
Where the hell am I when he decides to.block the damn streets!! I would have gotten out and joined them😂😂
I dead laughing when the guy shake his head at James 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 good job James good acting you have got the act and voice 8:20
This is like performing "My fair lady" in the middle of London - in spanish! -.-
damn some of these people are so unappreciative if i had this in front of me i'd actually cry because i've made it in life
They aren't unapppreciative, they are confused and for your information Parisians aren't hysterical fanatics crazy bitches.
In france we don't have crosswalk things and like 10% of france had seen or read les miserables .
Sosoleil Elmo I don’t think so. It’s like THE book everyone had to read at some point in school.
Sosoleil Elmo Actually a lot of people have read the book but the Musical is not very well known in France
@@zoelima3030 lmao they can be confused and unappreciative at the same time. it is not mutually exclusive. also for my information? girl i'm just stating how shocked i was to see no one react. showing simple APPRECIATION is not being a fanatic crazy bitch.
the french were NOT living for this performance.
They were uptight. Lol.
They really do not appreciate what their two most talented citizens created
The miserable lol!
It's the same situation with any other city. I'm pretty sure they edit and include only the confused faces, because that is the point of this segment. james and his co being so into it and public not giving af. XD
I am part frech and I LOVED it!
3:42
James: it all speaks to me
Right at the moment when he is standing next to a mime
Literally the best version of this musical I have ever seen!! Bravo!
