James Corden has recorded a spoof version of Kanye West’s brand new video for single Fade.

The British Late Late Show host debuted his very own version of the raunchy video just one day after West’s big VMAs reveal on Sunday.

In the parody clip, Corden inserts himself into the racy gym video alongside actress and singer Teyana Taylor.

But rather than joining in with her routine, he says: “Sorry, do you mind, because it's sort of a public gym.

“Can you dial it down a little bit. It feels like you’re ramping up, if anything.”

Lampooning the bizarre end of West’s new video, which sees a nude Taylor wearing cat make-up and surrounded by sheep, Corden says:

“Read the sign… no sheep in the gym. We have a zero sheep policy. That face is fine but these have got to go.”

Corden recently recorded his own spoof version of Beyonce’s visual album Lemonade after it became one of the most talked about pop moments of the year.

Recreating scenes from the collection of videos, the British presenter wore a long blonde wig and even posed in a bra and pants in one scene.

Corden, who has become extremely popular with US audiences, has become known for his sketches and interview segment Carpool Karaoke.

Britney Spears was the latest musician to get into the passenger seat, belting out a number of classics from her back catalogue including Hit Me Baby… One More Time.
