I hate him, I can’t watch him as he just pisses me off so much. He’s utterly full of himself and that oozes from him. That time he blocked traffic with a group to promote his new show, aye don’t worry that folk have places to be, I’d have run the bellend over.

Wait, wut?

He shouts at the production staff and ignores junior staff or those he seems insignificant. He regularly yells at camera ops, floor managers, runners, assistants etc and is utterly up his own backside and thoroughly unpleasant

i think the term 'shouts' and 'yells' have lost all meaning though. At my job over the years I've regularly heard colleagues say other colleagues and bosses 'shouted' at the them when they didn't. They were just reprimanded, their incompetence was pointed out or were asked to do something.

I worked in schools too and kids always say teachers shouted at them when they didn't.I've even heard parents say teachers did it in parents evening when again there was 0 shouting, the parents were just being told something they didn't want to hear.

In my private life I see others do it. My ex used to always say it to me or others when he was simply challenged on something. He'd be like ''stop shouting at me'' to try and deflect when I/another person was speaking to hi in a normal voice but he didn't like what he was hearing. My parents and sister do this too when they get challenged...

Bottom line is people use the terms ''shouting/yelled/screamed in my face...'' as a means to make the other person sound in the wrong when their own behaviour was being called out. Often it's pure gaslighting going on and to villainise the other person.

I've seen multiple threads on Reddit asking for people's experiences with celebrities in real life and JC always get mentioned a lot

The people who post have all said how horrible he is

Emma Watson got mentioned a lot too

However I have always known he is unique had has some problems . I have been fight for an assessment to see if he has autism or a neurological disability but it had fallen on deaf ears. I now had family firsts help. I also did and a bit of research and discovered strep b which he had when he was born had links to autism . Can anyone guide me In the right direction because I feel im fighting a Lossing battle. Thank you

Do Americans know there are actually funny British people? Why do they have Piers Morgan and James Corden? They're just dross.

dontputitthere · 19/10/2022 10:57

I've worked with both cilla and James cordon

Can confirm they're both cunts

Sadly it's from having friends in high places. Though there's hope for us regarding jc

Once cillas mate left itv they put someone in charge who'd worked their way up as a runner and had worked with cilla previously. Hence cilla never getting any more work on itv ever again...

Biding my time with cunt cordon.

LadyGaGasPokerFace · 19/10/2022 10:58

He’s too big for his boots. He’s as funny as recurring thrush.

Corden is just another other rude, full of himself celebrity. I’ve also read that the restaurant owner is a great big twat, treating his employees like shit.

Met him once at the filming of league of their own show on location and he was delightful...polite and friendly. His costars were not! Jack Whitehall, Jamie rednap and Freddie flintoff were rude, arrogant and one high as a kite!

Ihatethenewlook · 19/10/2022 11:11

Tbf I’d be pissed off if a chef fucked my meal up 3 times in a row. I don’t get people who try and judge all these celebrities that they’ve never met in their lives.

Tamrastarr · 19/10/2022 11:16

I know nothing about James Cordon, but the restaurant owner sounds a bit of an idiot. What does he do with the rude customers who aren't famous? How does he shame them?

EddieHowesBlackandWhiteArmy · 19/10/2022 11:50

That Patrick Stewart video has made me feel all kinds of wrong. I love Patrick Stewart but that was very awkward. I thought it was a planned ‘bit’ but then it became clearly nope it was just two men being a bit dickish to each other calling each other (essentially) ‘fat’ and ‘boring’ 😳in front of a large crowd.

Gloryofthe80s · 19/10/2022 11:55

His parents wrote to the BBC to complain when Radio 2 gave James a less that glowing review for his performance in Peter Rabbit. Tells you all you need to know about him and his family.

Nope - sounds like you're apologising for his behaviour to me. He is unprofessional, unpleasant and abusive to staff.

This is what happens when people get stinking rich - they become arseholes #parforthecourse really🤷🏼‍♀️. Just wish people would stop worshipping the ‘slebs…. People don’t seem to realise their👍 Just translates into more cash, none of them are actually interested in sharing shit with you!!

Definitely not all though. I dealt with one recently who was absolutely lovely and very generous with their thank you for my help. I say that as even if they had been an average person they would have stood out for how pleasant they were

lborgia · 19/10/2022 12:19

@Gloryofthe80s - if that's true (it certainly sounds it), that will be the funniest and most telling thing I'll read all week!!

Wow, how embarrassing, and yes, says it all.
Thanks for that!

Abhannmor · 19/10/2022 12:21

That's funny...I was just mentioning this survey on a Radio 4 FB page.

He comes up so often. Perhaps exceeded only by Cilla Black. I'd only vaguely hears of him before the MN nasty celeb thread to be honest.

lborgia · 19/10/2022 12:22

I even looked it up, why would they do that??? Simon Mayo reading the letter!

NC12345665 · 19/10/2022 12:24

Mysterian · 19/10/2022 09:46

And there's the Corden - Patrick Stewart argument. Corden was acting bored by the whole event and Stewart called him out on it.

Cringe.

WeBuiltThisBuffetOnSausageRoll · 19/10/2022 12:24

This case and 'have you experienced/been a rude celebrity in general?' is being discussed on Radio 2 (Jeremy Vine) at about 1:30pm today.
