HILLARY Clinton made a surprising - and hilarious - Grammy's cameo.

The ex-presidential hopeful appeared in a rib-tickling skit by James Cordon as she joined a host of stars to read from anti-Trump memoir, Fire and Fury.

The sketch opened with Corden bursting onto the scene with a director's clapper board.

He tells the Grammys audience: "Spoken word auditions, Fire and Fury, take one.";

Then a roll-call of mega star performers take turns reading excerpts from Michael Wolff's bombshell book, which claims to chart behind the scenes of Trump's first few days in power.

John Legend kicks off the skit reciting: "Trump won't read anything.

"He gets up halfway through meetings with world leaders, because he's bored."

Then it's Cher's turn.

The Turn Back Time singer discusses the President's famous blond barnet, claming: "The colour is a product called Just For Men."

Rap legend Snoop Dogg, dressed in a black roll-neck and spectacles, describes Trump not enjoying his inauguration, before Cardi B reveals Trump liked to go to bed with a cheeseburger.

The next guest appears with her face covered, but soon the crowd are laughing as they realise who the mystery woman is.

She lowers the book as she says: "He had a long time fear of being poisoned.

"One reason why he liked to eat at McDonald's."

That's when Corden reappears to tell her she's got the gig, declaring "That's the one, it's in the bag."

It was not the only political statement made on the night.

Bruno Mars swept the top categories at the 60th Grammy Awards 2018 including Best Song with 24K Magic

Kesha gave a powerful rendition of Praying after Jenelle Monae's rousing speech declared "time's up" for music industry sexual predators.

Singers wore white roses as a symbolic united front against the Hollywood sex scandal, and to show solidarity for the #MeToo campaign.

Earlier, pro Trump singer Joy Villa arrived on the red carpet wearing an anti-abortion fetus dress and "Choose Life" handbag.
