Joe Biden joked that he wished he had Boris Johnson's hair during James Corden's The Late Late Show. The US president quipped that if he had the locks of the UK Prime Minister he "could have got elected sooner".
The humorous sketch was part of a special edition of the Take A Break segment of Corden's popular show. The 43-year-old lent a helping hand at the White House with various chores in the iconic building and the Oval Office.
The comedian and talk show host also visited the kitchen at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, helping out with “food security,” and opened a press briefing with US news reporters. Posing as Biden’s personal assistant, Corden offered to get the president a snack before “redecorating” the Oval Office with a picture of himself and Harry Styles.
“Which of the world leaders have you got on that phone on speed dial?” he later asked Biden. “We could call Boris Johnson.”
“Boris talks to me all the time, I wish I had his hair, I could have got elected sooner,” Biden replies. “You wish you had Boris Johnson’s hair? Nobody has ever said that in the history of talking about hair,” Corden says.
Later while talking to Jen Psaki, the ex-White House Press Secretary, about the briefing schedule, Corden asked her: “Where does the president stand on One Direction getting back together?” Should they be kidnapped, placed together as a band, and pushed out one more time?”
Psaki responds: “The kidnapping place feels a little dark for us.”
