Thanks to James Corden it paid to be a loser at the 2018 Grammy Awards, because the three "losers" in the Best Comedy Album category received something way better than a Grammy- they got a consolation puppy.

James handed out adorable puppies to Jerry Seinfeld, Jim Gaffigan and Sarah Silverman after they all lost to Dave Chappelle, so they would feel better about their loss, and the on-screen moments created by this warm and fuzzy gag were priceless.
Some animal rights activists had a problem with Corden's decision to use real puppies, but his father went on to LBC and set them straight:
“A guy across the aisle from me he got one of these puppies… he had his children there, they were stroking the puppy.
“Almost as soon as the camera [was turned off] the puppy was handed back to the handler as were all the puppies.
“It was a lovely moment that just lightened the mood.”
Are you kidding? Of course they were fine, those lucky dogs got to hang out with three of the greatest comedians of all time!
