The Shady Side Of James Corden

james corden is a british-born late-night talk show host who's beloved by those who watch him on tv every night on more than one occasion however the funny man has let his affable mask slip here's a look at some of cordon's most eyebrow-raising moments james corden boldly went where few have gone before in 2010 when he got into an on stage spat with patrick stewart the drama happened when the star trek legend stepped up to the podium to help present a category at london's glamour awards stewart soon let corden know he wasn't impressed by his hosting telling cordon when the presenters are up here and when the recipients are receiving their rewards don't stand at the back of the stage with your hands in your pockets looking around as though you wished you were anywhere but here a shocked looking cordon initially seemed apologetic for apparently looking so disengaged but he soon tried to put stewart in his place remarking that the actor should just present the award without criticizing cordon's job at hosting after the respected thespian added he could see cordon's belly from where he was sitting the host replied you could see my belly we can all see you dying right now of course as the master of ceremonies corden managed to get several other digs in at the sometime captain picard over the rest of the evening stewart later admitted he was embarrassed by his conduct on the night and in 2016 the sun reported he made amends with his one-time foe on stage at channel 4's comedy gala the 2008 bafta tv awards should have been an evening of celebration for james corden after all he'd won best comedy performance for his turn as smithy and gavin and stacy and the same sitcom had been given the audience award but apparently this wasn't enough for gordon while accepting the audience award on stage corden wondered aloud why the hit bbc show hadn't even been nominated in the best scripted comedy category it's fair to say that he didn't receive the answer he may have been expecting instead of the audience whooping in agreement they greeted his ungracious query with a deafening silence to his credit corden later admitted that he'd acted like a quote pratt in front of his peers in his 2011 memoir may i have your attention please the comedian wrote rather than using my speech to thank everyone who'd helped on the show i'd ruined the moment and belittled myself in the process luckily for gordon the baftas didn't hold a grudge and nominated him several times in the mid-2010s for the bbc comedy the wrong man's james corden shouldn't expect to be invited back to soap opera hollyoaks if his career ever takes a downturn although the man himself has said he'd rather die than accept such an offer anyway after all corden has done nothing but slammed the long-running british series ever since he guested as janitor wayne back in 2000. in an interview with esquire magazine corden said hollyoaks just breeds people walking around with this chicken and a basket fame talking about going to la you know corden's comments didn't go unnoticed by hollyoaks cast member ricky whittle who told what's on tv good luck to him i hope he doesn't bump into us on a night out it's very childish that he's slating the place where he came from the place that made him especially when no one he's talking about is here anymore corden who also criticized hollyoaks in his 2011 memoir may i have your attention please was later made to look slightly foolish by several graduates of the soap who went on to land plum hollywood roles on shows like game of thrones and movies like pitch perfect 3. while being interviewed on james corden's late night talk show in 2015 actor lake bell mentioned that she'd once lived in sidcup england as a student after responding quote that is not pleasant to the news of his guest's unlikely former hometown cordon added sid cup sounds like somewhere you go for afternoon tea you leave by the afternoon because you don't want to be there when it is dark belle agreed adding that when she arrived to sit cup there was a car commercial on local tv that depicted the town as the quote armpit of england unsurprisingly the sid cup masses weren't too happy about being made fun of on american tv and soon took to twitter to voice their displeasure a disgruntled long-time resident counselor june slaughter told the daily mail i cannot imagine why said cup would be described in such a way and wonder whether he has ever been here i think people would be extremely upset if they were told of his comments because we take a lot of pride in our town james corden and matthew horn had provided comedy gold as two of the stars of sitcom gavin and stacy it was less so however when the pair teamed up again for a bbc sketch show dismissed by many critics as one of the worst tv series of the 2000s that said one of the duo's many many humorless skits poked fun at a fellow british funnyman that would eventually become cordon's nemesis yes in 2008's imaginatively titled horn and cordon the latter repeatedly mocked ricky gervais while emulating his most popular character the office's david brent gervais told radio andy in 2017 that he'd taken no offense at this form of quote friendly teasing but he may well have felt differently about the next jibe at his expense after being appointed as host of the 2011 brit awards corden told mirror that he wasn't interested in following in the footsteps of the man who'd hosted the golden globes just a month earlier cordon said to the outlet i'm not going to go down the ricky gervais road i want to host the brits with as much warmth and sensitivity as possible gervais has since taken several pot shots at cordon in retaliation in september 2017 james corden went viral for all the wrong reasons when he was pictured planting a kiss on donald trump's former press secretary sean spicer backstage at the emmy awards many critics believed that this cheeky display of affection was helping to normalize a figure who as the new yorker put it quote will be remembered for his lies this was the largest audience to ever witness an inauguration period both in person and around the globe after suffering a similar backlash to the one jimmy fallon received for messing up trump's hair gordon addressed the issue on his show but he didn't exactly take things seriously telling the audience i know you think that's a picture of me kissing sean spicer but in the spirit of sean spicer no it isn't cordon's punchline heavy approach then continued with this remark i've been reading a lot of harsh comments on twitter today and i hear you loud and clear truly i do so much so that i'm starting to regret that carpool karaoke that we've taped with steve bannon feels like a mistake today the funny man's light-hearted response over the controversy did little to calm his many detractors it seems unlikely that pierce brosnan will ever be invited onto the late late show with james corden while interviewing khloe kardashian during the spill your gut segment on his cbs vehicle in 2017 the comedian happened to mention he apparently had a less than pleasant run-in with a famous face during a u2 gig when kardashian pressed further about the person's identity corn revealed that it was the former james bond gordon went on to recall the time he stood next to brosnan at a u2 concert corden said the mamma mia star left halfway through the show with his friends leaving their spot in the audience empty for a while corden recalled how he and his wife then moved into the empty area where brosnan had been standing only to have the actor show up a short time later gordon then revealed what happened next this arm went on here and just pushed me out of the way and i was look look at him like that and he didn't even glance me he just moved back into his area and look like that kardashian tried to come to the tomorrow never dies star's defense suggesting that he may not have been in the most sober state of mind at the time but the host wasn't having any of it responding that brosnan was clearly being rude to him the sheer unadulterated awfulness of the big screen cats may have been one of the most unifying things in late 2019 and even the actors who appeared in the film couldn't resist taking a jab at one of the biggest hollywood flops in recent memory james corden who portrayed buster jones and tom hooper's bizarre take on the hit musical first stuck the knife in while appearing on zoey ball's bbc radio 2 breakfast show when ball asked about the andrew lloyd webber adaptation the funny man replied that he hadn't seen it and quote heard it's terrible a few months later he poked fun at the movie again when he joined co-star rebel wilson in full cat costume to present an award at the oscars corden joked to the audience as cast members of the motion picture cats nobody more than us understands the importance of good visual effects understandably the team behind those visual effects weren't too happy at being mocked on such a grand stage following corton and wilson's routine moving pictures companies eves mccray tweeted hey guys i haven't watched all of the oscars but i assume these two were really classy and thanked me for working 80 hour weeks right up until i was laid off and the studio closed right here's one example of when james corden's snark appeared entirely justified in september 2019 bill maher controversially claimed on his real-time show that fat shaming needed to stage a comeback being a plus-sized man the cat star understandably didn't appreciate his fellow talk show hosts called arms on his own late night hit cordon fought back against maher by saying fat shaming never went anywhere i mean ask literally any fat person we are reminded of it all the time as well as opening up about his own personal struggles corden also managed to get a few digs in against the fat shaming movement's apparent new spokesman by saying we're not all as lucky as bill maher you know we don't all have a sense of superiority that burns 35 000 calories a day after suggesting that mars intentions were well-meaning he concluded the surprisingly heartfelt segment with this please hear me when i say this while you're encouraging people to think about what goes into their mouths just think a little harder about what comes out of yours james corden was accused of essentially disrespecting an entire community with his portrayal of gay broadway actor barry glickman and ryan murphy's star-studded the prom eyebrows had already been raised with the casting of gordon who has been married to julia carey since 2012 with critics arguing that the role should have gone to someone within the lgbtq community and corden didn't help matters with a performance that was described as stereotypical in fact the comedian suffered possibly the biggest backlash of his career due to the netflix original which sees a bunch of musical theater husbands attempt to boost their profile by jumping on a charitable bandwagon vanity fair's richard lawson argued that straight identifying men should no longer be allowed to play gay until quote the sins of the prom are properly atoned for erik anderson of awards watch was even more scathing tweeting the main and huge drawback is james corden his performance is gross and defensive the worst gay face in a long long time it's horrifically bad indiewire's zack sharp meanwhile also took to twitter to declare the prom shouts about tolerance but has james corden leaning into effeminate gay stereotypes every chance he gets someone make it make sense check out one of our newest videos right here plus even more nikki swift videos about your favorite celebs are coming soon subscribe to
