Having a go at James Corden
Who is James Corden? Actor, writer, comedian, songwriter - or just an over-inflated bag of ego?
James is putting himself about a lot lately and it's starting to look a little bit like over-exposure.
Look, he's there in Doctor Who as one of those guest stars who get in the way of the action.
He's here with his annoying banter after some World Cup matches.
(And there with his single with Dizzee Rascal in which fans are encouraged to "come and have a go if you think you're hard enough" - lyrics some claim brand England's fans as hooligans).
And he's everywhere where there's a red carpet and celebrities to run shoulders with.
What really exposes him, however, was the very public row with actor Patrick Stewart at an awards ceremony the other day.
Stewart, admittedly, started it by baldly going where no man had gone before and by claiming he could see too much of Corden's belly.
But, instead of rolling with it, Corden retaliated.
He said: "Sorry, I'm waiting for the punchline. You could see my belly . . . Well, I can see you dying [on stage] right now."
There were other things, too, like Cordon's mocking of Stewart as an old man.
In doing so Corden, a man who enjoys the trappings of fame, made himself the story.
Yes, Mr Stewart, we ARE seeing too much of Corden's belly. And the rest of him as well!

You've got it bang wrong here. Patrick was well out of line by starting a slagging match with the comedian.
Patrick was presenting an award and started waffling like a lost man. Patrick needs to learn to not take himself sooooo serious. FYI Patrick started it when he was critisising James's presentation style.
John, Patrick Stewart has a god 40 years or so of well respected and successful acting. His career is far more advanced and well known that Corden's. I agreed with Stewart. Corden looked bored...He'd soon find he wouldn't be presenting things if it carried on. I admit Stewart went about it the wrong way, but he was right. And Corden CERTAINLY didn't need to retaliate in such a threatening way, he showed himself as the arrogant little hooligan he is.
I think James Corden's behaviour was far from threatening; he only defended himself in a similar (and in a much funnier/wittier) way. I'm sure Mr Corden would be the first to admit he has been a victim to 'fat' jibes all his life and good on him for fighting his corner!! What example is 'SIR' Patrick Stewart setting?? - If you don't agree with the way someone is doing something then publically attack their physical appearence? - Very poor form.
I'm afraid that I believe these opinions were made by seeing just clips of the evening, as a whole James Corden's performance was greatly enjoyed by the majority of the people there and I hope he continues to go on to further sucsess!
Far from threatening? James Corden got right in Patrick Stewarts face! He is nothing more than a small time celeb trying to milk the industry for all it's worth before he's thrown aside. He's a one trick pony and knows it. Patrick Stewart has worked hard all his life and gained a great deal of respect from fans and those in the acting profession. Yes he should not have said what he did - but corden should have let it go!
The majority of videos on youtube cut out Corden being a dick behind SIR Patrick after the first bit of Banter, thats all it was. corden just needs to go back to being a nobody and stop being a nobody who thinks he is a somebody. I think we need SIR Ian to give him a good talking to!!!
James Corden is a fat waste of space , he never bothered me when he did Gavin and Stacey and he never bothered me when he did Teachers. But as soon as he started to think he was a comedian and not just a comedy actor/writer he got right on my nerves , he isnt funny and i really would love to see this lump of lard do stand up before he gets to host shows that should have real talented comedians hosting them.
