Watch Ariana Grande & James Corden's COVID-19 parody of Hairspray

The pandemic is easing up with cities across the country opening back up, including all of California on Tuesday, and James Corden took the next natural step: commemorate the occasion with a spoofy musical number.

Tuesday night's The Late Late Show with James Corden featured a parody performance of Hairspray's "Good Morning Baltimore" called "No Lockdowns Anymore," cheerily celebrating the vaccine and bottomless mimosas.

Of course, it wouldn't be music without Ariana Grande's angelic voice. The 27-year-old newly married pop superstar comes in around the one-minute mark in a classically beautiful yellow dress. 

Grande delights in parting her hair and getting back in the gym before running into Tony Award winner Marissa Jaret Winoker, the OG Tracy Turnblad in Hairspray on Broadway.

Ultimately, Corden and Grande dance in a once-again crowded street and relish in the opportunity to hug family again. Watch the full number below.
