Its odd the way he's turned out. You'd think he'd not want to be an arse and would want to be humble. According to Rob during Cruise of the Gods, he followed Rob and David round during off times like a lap dog because he wanted to get into the business more. Now it's got to the stage where we all want James to just "fuck off".

[@joncaley82]

[@mynameisnotjerome1803]

James Corden reminds me of that one kid at school who manages to gaslight every teacher into believing that he’s just a kind-hearted joker, but when they leave he’s the biggest bully in the class.

[@haizee2330]

Improper use of gaslight

[@portcullis5622]

@@haizee2330 I agree. Gaslighting is a horrible technique used by a person who holds a position of power, to worry someone in a lesser position (usually a partner or a member of staff). To undermine their confidence and leave them riddled with self-doubt.

[@NormanTiner]

@@haizee2330 yeah people use the word interchangeably with "tricking". It's definitely not that simple. It's convincing you to doubt your own judgment or senses, especially when the person doing it knows you're actually right.

[@jimreily7538]

He's definitely like that. People who went to school with him say he was a vile, obnoxious brat, loud, mean, utterly devoid of any likeable qualities. Similar stories abound. One man even brought his disabled child to meet Corden, which the man had to pay for. Several others won a competition but you could also pay money to buy this opportunity to meet Corden. He made the disabled boy and the man, wait 3 hours in a narrow hallway near the set, without seats or amenities of any type, and then, after doing whatever he was doing, he walked towards them. Looking beyond them as if they weren't there. One of his assistants/PA people with a earpiece in her ear,and a headset microphone, reminded him about the disabled kid and he stopped, turned to look at the father and his wheelchair-bound child, then turned back to the assistant and screamed, shrieked at the top of his lungs, "WHAT DID I F*****NG TELL YOU ? I DID NOT AGREE TO THIS. TELL THEM TO GO HOME !" Then he turned to face the direction he came from, and marched back to the office he'd come in from. On the way he was screaming, really loudly, so loud everyone in every other office could hear it, "GET THEM OUT OF HERE ! CLEAR THEM OFF! IF THEY ARE STILL THERE IN 5 MINUTES, NONE OF YOU F****ING WILL BE ! IDIOTS." Door slams, he's gone. PA hustles the kid and his dad out and apologises profusely, she was really nice. Corden behaved like a beast.

[@kommissar.murphy]

Actually what James is doing at 4:17 could be an example of gaslighting, as it implies that you are the problem rather than twitter itself.

[@korgscrew2000]

I hate James Corden that much that I can't even watch Limmy do an analysis.

[@RenegadeShepard69]

Yeah honestly I've been avoiding this content by Limmy because I get nothing out of it. It's just awful all over, not even Limmy can come up with something funny out of that, his mocking of Corden is only our coping mechanism at his continuing existence.
