Harry Styles kisses James Corden on Carpool Karaoke Christmas special

James Corden and Harry Styles shared an intimate moment in the trailer for the Carpool Karaoke Christmas special.

In scenes to be aired later this year on The Late Late Show, the pair can be seen singing along to some festive favourites, wishing each other a merry Christmas and then kissing in front of the camera towards the end of the clip.

After Corden tells Styles: “Happy Christmas Harold,” the pair lean in, look into each other’s eyes and lock lips.

Looking surprised, The Late Late show host jokes: “I did not expect that for Christmas!”

It’s not the first time the pair have shared an embrace on camera.

Back in 2013, when Styles was still a member of One Direction, he and his bandmates appeared on Corden’s Sky series A League Of Their Own.

During the episode the singer sat on Corden’s knee grabbed his face and kissed him on the lips.

Styles is not the only star set to appear in the Christmas edition of Carpool. Corden will also be joined by Bruno Mars, Miley Cyrus, Kelly Clarkson, Katy Perry, Sam Smith and more.

In the promotional clip for the episode, the celebrities can be seen sporting Christmas jumpers in a musical mash-up of Santa Claus Is Comin’ To Town.

The Late Late Show with James Corden airs weeknights at 12:35 AM ET on CBS.
