NEW YORK (AP) — It was a musical joyride for Michelle Obama as she joined James Corden for "Carpool Karaoke."

The video aired Wednesday on the late-night host's CBS show.

The first lady and Corden didn't go far — security demanded that they stick to the driveway on the White House property. But that didn't stop them from singing Stevie Wonder's "Signed, Sealed, Delivered I'm Yours" and Beyonce's "Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)."

Then it was time for "This Is For My Girls," a "girl power anthem" intended to promote full access to education worldwide. And to join them for it, up popped Missy Elliott in Corden's backseat.

The "Carpool Karaoke" video was taped last month.
