How James Corden Destroyed His Reputation

[@xpat73]

You can tell a lot about a person by the way they treat the help. I think Muhammad Ali said - “I don’t trust anyone who’s nice to me but rude to the waiter. Because they would treat me the same way if I were in that position.” Says it all about Corden.

I attended a taping of his Late Late show in 2019. He not only completely ignored the live audience, but gave a very clear non-verbal message that he did not appreciate them being there. The warm-up guy even apologized to us for it. And whenever Corden was off camera, he was clearly in a foul mood and numerous times seen talking angrily to staff members and scowling at others. That experience turned me off big-time and I have watched nothing of him except a couple clips of Car Pool Karaoke since.

Theres a specific demographic that watches daytime tv. He just was forced on us. Nobody watched him. Nobody tuned in for James Cordon. I never met anyone that liked him or his content, on the other hand, ellen in facebooks prime was everywhere. I even remember sophia and the other girl that met nicki minaj on there etc. Being on an Ellen was a "Brag" to artists and celebrities. Nobody brags about being on his show. Actually he needs the stars to show up, otherwise nobody would watch. Which isn't the case for the view or ellen or wendy when it was on etc. The celebrity needed them. Like Fallon, or Kimmel. To promote projects and albums. James needs everyones fans. Not the other way around. Nobody needs the 5 fans cordon may have. So no comparison here. James is just an overweight pile of garbage with the right connections.

My favorite part of the whole "Cats" situation was that he had the nerve to go on stage at the freaking Oscars presenting the VFX category and blaming the VFX artists for how horrible the movie was.

[@j.r.765]

honestly VFX has been carrying hollywood, they should strike for a season and see how many projects are halted and how barren they look.

[@Squirrel_Cat]

Yeah, that was for sure one of the worst moments. As a fan of the Corridor Crew, who do a ton of VFX related videos with just their small crew, I was dismayed to listen him villainize the VFX artists and animators due to the director's poor creative leadership and the clash of interests. Those were the director's problems, not the artists' faults and he had no right to lay the blame at their feet. Could the Cats movie have been better? Sure! Was it just the VFX effects that made the movie as bad as it was? Nope. Anyone with half a brain would know that.

When before it was just protocol to keep quiet and brush it under the rug. They lost their "I'm famous status" excuse to verbally abuse and disrespect their staff.

I've tried to put my finger on what exactly I've never liked about him, and I think it can be narrowed down to how insincere he comes across in everything he does. Whether playing a role or appearing as himself, he overcompensates what's required to the point of embarrassment, so its almost like parody. For an actor that's fatal, and for a TV personality it makes him very unlikeable. He just seems like he's placating or mocking his audience, because they actually have chosen to watch him. I get the feeling he was caught stealing sweets as a kid, wormed his way out of it with a bit of insincere it wasn’t me guv acting. And while sniggering at the stupidity of the person believing him, thought I could make a career out of this. Add on his reported bullying and the visible signs of this when the mask has slipped, and there's no reason to watch him. I don’t blame people making petitions to keep him out of things, his casting only adds a charisma vacuum.

Normally on a TV studio set, the presenters will get to know the crew and become friends with them over the course of a a series. Not James. He'd refer to camera operators by numbers instead of their names, would bark orders at runners, and just generally be a horrible person to everyone he came across. In my career, I was lucky enough to meet many A-list movie and music stars, and most of them were actually very nice and friendly people to talk to. Not James.

Story time: I knew a British comedy writer who has worked on some bigger projects. One time a car was sent to pick him up in London for some showbiz thing. He was chatting up his driver and asked him, "So have you ever driven anyone famous?" and the driver kind of laughed nervously and said yes, and the writer could see he was kind of uncomfortable. He pressed a little more and the driver said the famous person they picked up wasn't great. The writer just had a hunch and flat-out asked him, "...was it James Corden?" and the driver nodded yes. Apparently the driver said one time he was sent to pick up James Corden, and James asked the driver to stop and get some sandwiches on the way to where they were going. The driver agreed but mentioned that he just had his car cleaned and requested James be careful. James said okay, and was quiet for the rest of the ride after getting the food. After dropping him off, the driver went to the back where James had been sitting and saw the entire interior absolutely smeared with mayonnaise, bread and gunk smashed into the seats and ground into the carpet with his shoes. It probably took this man a few hours and significant money to clean. All because the driver asked James to please eat carefully.

And you are going to like him!" and then started shoving him into our faces until we just couldn't stand the sight of him anymore. Then you get to really see the nasty, repugnant side of his personality. His entitlement, his immaturity, his arrogance. But the killer for me was his response to the Mark Kermode review of the (F#ng god-awful) Peter Rabbit movie, where Corden thought the best way to make himself seem tough and cool, was to have his Mummy and Daddy write a letter saying what a wonderful boy their precious little James was.

Just about the carpool karaoke thing.. there's laws against acting and driving. Basically, if a camera is rolling for commercial use (production money-making), you can't do anything except drive. No reading lines, no pretending to look off in the distance, no singing, nothing.

The shocking part to me was when he said he had been actually driving in any of them.

I worked with a guy who did a sideline of work as a James Corden double - he is literally the spitting image of the man and weirdly also called James. He’s done a lot of work on adverts where Cordon will do a couple of closeups and he basically appears in the rest - all of what you said about his arrogance and rudeness is spot on from what he told me Corden was like. He would turn up to shoots, barely interact with anyone - didn’t want to be talked to unless necessary and then would be gone ASAP. The strange thing is - this kind of behaviour doesn’t make him an outlier. There are other celebs that are similar, but I think the disappointment that he isn’t the jolly fat guy you think he is somehow makes it worse.

@@rokeYouuer Yep. I halfway agree with Corden. If people ACTUALLY watch multiple Carpool Karaoke vids, there's at least 1 or 2 shots where the car is in full view with him and the guest in it.

I can go on, but I do think he shouldn't have said 95% of the vids. I think it's less than that, and he's probably not driving for the ENTIRETY of each vid. Just kind of amazing how extreme these sides are while both will say the other does no research.

Even if its just and after school job.I did a few summer and weekend jobs during my school time in the service industry and its really a hard working job, gladly not all customers are karens en kens but those really can ruin your day. its not so hard to say thank you and being polite to someone serving you coffee of food. And even if you do have a complain its easier fixed if you bring it up in a polite way

Never forget this anecdote: Half an hour into a New York to London flight, passengers in business class noticed a woman with a crying baby being brought through the curtains by a flight attendant. They looked on in mild horror as they saw the attendant direct her into an empty seat next to... James Corden. Expecting a huge celebrity hissy fit to kick off. Corden's cabin- mates were impressed to see that he didn't say a word or make any sort of complaint. He simply put on a pair of noise-cancelling headphones, pulled an eyemask over his eyes, and turned away from her to sleep. Pretty decent of him, right? When the plane landed though, passengers were surprised to see Corden remain seated as the woman with the baby struggled to open the overhead locker. And even more surprised when she turned to Corden and said "For fuck's sake can you at least hold the baby while I get the bags down?" The woman was his wife. The baby was his baby.

I can't stand him, and personally I was glad he went to the States (as it got him off British telly). However, he was everywhere in British TV & Media for a few years and only got more prolific after Gavin & Stacey. Over here he was already disliked, but was also at the same time one of the biggest(/more prolific as I earlier said because to be big requires fandom) stars. It seems he went to the US, with the Late Late Show and managed to get his way into Hollywood and the American mainstream like he did the UK. And its all now crumbling apart (similarly to here, his brand kept rising but at the cost of more & more people disliking him until he jumped over the Atlantic). It couldn't happen to a more suited person, just a shame he got the chance to make millions. An arrogant cunt.
