The Shady Side Of James Corden

May 2024 ยท 2 minute read

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. And he soon let Corden know he wasn't impressed by his hosting: "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 taken aback Corden initially seemed apologetic for apparently looking so disengaged. But he soon tried to put Stewart in his place, remarking, "But when you come up and present an award, just f***ing get on with it." After the respected thespian added he could see Corden's belly from where he was sitting, the host replied, "You could see my belly? We can all see you dying right now."

Things then got even weirder when Stewart, who appeared to have taken advantage of the free bar, commented, "If you fancy the Jonas Brothers, cover your belly." 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.
