    Stevie twirls baton on The Late Late Show

    Stevie Nicks shows off her fabulous hidden talent on The Late Late Show with James Corden!

    Stevie Nicks appeared on The Late Late Show with James Corden — twirling a baton! A skilled twirler since her high school days, Stevie was nearly flawless until the baton unexpectedly conked her on the head. Of course, her reaction of faux-outrage was adorably priceless. Host James Cordon shared a looping animated GIF photo on social media, showcasing Stevie’s hidden talent, which momentarily crashed the Internet.

    Stevie’s charming baton-twirling was part of James Corden’s “Up-in-Coming Celebrity Hidden Talents” segment, which also included the hidden talents of bird-noise-making Kendall Jenner, flying-food-catching Taylor Lautner, and back-flipping Andrew Garfield (see the clips below).

    Stevie’s segment was taped last October when both she and Taylor appeared on the show together.

    Transcript

    James Corden: Hello, good evening. What’s your name and where are you from?

    Stevie Nicks: Stephanie Nicks. I’m from uh… I was born in Phoenix, but I was actually reborn in San Francisco in 1969.

    JC: And what do you do?

    SN: I’m a struggling singer.

    JC: All right, what’s your hidden talent?

    SN: For some reason, I actually learned how to twirl the baton.

    JC: Here we go. We’re going to see it tonight. Ladies and gentlemen, Stephanie Nicks, take it away!

    JC: Whoa! Ladies and gentlemen, what a treat!

    Now, this isn’t the first time Stevie’s showed off her baton-twirling talent in public. You may recall Stevie’s 2011’s music video for “Secret Love,” where a clip of Stevie twirling the baton appeared for a nano second.

    Fans are probably more familiar with Stevie’s baton-twirling in Fleetwood Mac’s 1979 music video for “Tusk,” where the act received some serious airtime.

    The Queen of Rock and Roll slays on The Late Late Show, charms Taylor Lautner

    On Thursday, Stevie Nicks appeared on The Late Late Show with James Corden. She performed her Top 5 hit “Leather and Lace” (from Bella Donna), which was originally a duet with Eagles’ Don Henley. For this performance, Stevie sang the entire song with harmony help from her backup singers (Sharon Celani and Marilyn Martin) for the second half of the song, similar to the way it had been done for The White Winged Dove Tour in 1981. Afterwards, host James Corden showered Stevie with praise in his trademark tongue-and-cheek way, dropping to his knees to kiss the Queen of Rock and Roll’s boots!

    After the performance, Stevie sat with fellow guests actors Taylor Lautner and Zach Galifianakis for a short interview. Stevie shared the story of when she and Taylor first met at a major Twilight: New Moon (2009) film-premiere after-party and explained how the second Twilight film inspired the recording of the song “Moonlight (A Vampire’s Dream)” and the 2011 album In Your Dreams. Taylor recalled meeting Stevie at the party, but admitted he didn’t remember hearing the actual story due to being starstruck from meeting her in person — telling her, “I’m a huge fan.”

    Stevie enjoyed being on the show, sharing a photo on her Facebook page with the caption, “Love James Corden. So much fun!” She also took a selfie with James Corden, Taylor Lautner, and Zach Galifianakis, which James posted to The Late Late Show’s Facebook page.

    The Late Late Show with James Corden airs on CBS weeknights at 12:37am.
