Hillary Clinton surprised the Grammy Awards audience Sunday night with a special reading of Michael Wolff’s “Fire and Fury”.
The pre-taped clip, which saw the former US presidential nominee read an excerpt from the headline-making book about President Trump’s 2016 campaign, aired during Sunday’s telecast after host James Corden held fake auditions for the audio-book version of the piece.

Corden, who reminded us all that former presidents Barack Obama, Jimmy Carter, and Bill Clinton have all taken home Spoken Word Album Grammys in the past, found his perfect narrator — and potential 2019 Grammy winner — in Clinton within seconds.
“[She]’s it,” Corden joked about Trump’s 2016 opponent. “We’ve got it! That’s the one.”

After lowering the book from her face, Clinton was met with cheers and laughter from the music-loving, and left-leaning crowd.
Online, fans cheered on the 70-year-old politician.

Joining Clinton in the audition chair were Cher, John Legend, Snoop Dogg, DJ Khaled, and Cardi B, who all made an attempt at reciting the shocking contents with dramatic effect.
“I can’t believe that he really … this how he lives his life?” Cardi B wondered.
