Team USA during the “Late Late Show” Team USA v. Team UK Dodgeball Tournament
Actress Mila Kunis tested out her dodgeball skills June 17 during a head-to-head “Late Late Show” Dodgeball Tournament. Former first lady Michelle Obama led Team USA, while James Corden led Team UK to see which country was better.
Obama also called on celebrities Melissa McCarthy (“Bridesmaids”), writer and actress Lena Waithe (“Masters of None”), Allison Janney (“Mom”) and Kate Hudson (“Almost Famous”), all of whom agreed to participate.

“When Michelle Obama calls and asks you to do anything, you just say yes,” Kunis said during the segment.
Corden’s team consisted of singer Harry Styles, actor Benedict Cumberbatch (“Doctor Strange”) and John Bradley (“Game of Thrones”). “Late Late Show” bandleader Reggie Watts also participated on Team UK and made it clear that he is not British.
After a three-game tournament, confetti fell from the ceiling as the women of Team USA claimed their prize and did their victory dance.
