“She’s not wrong”: James Corden Haters Rally Behind Mel B after $6M Rich Singer Defends Calling Him “Biggest d*ckhead celebrity”
The movie industry is a harsh business, to say the least. With so many people working on a particular project and intersecting appearances on various talk shows for promotions, clashes and fights are bound to happen. Not everyone can like everyone. Recently, Spice Girl Mel B called James Corden the “biggest d*ckhead celebrity.”
Mel B Dislikes James Corden
Mel B has gone on to say that James Corden is the “biggest d*ckhead celebrity” she has ever encountered on two occasions. On an appearance on The Big Narstie Show, when Mo Gilligan, the host, asked her to share her thoughts on the biggest d*ckhead celebrities, she said,
“So, there’s a few – James Corden, Geri Halliwell… and me.”
Geri Halliwell is one of Mel B’s bandmates, so Gilligan was visibly surprised by this reveal. She further added, “I know. I love her to bits but she’s really f***ing annoying.” When asked about Corden deserving this title, she explained,
“I think you always have to be nice to the people that you work with whether it be production, camera guys, sound, lighting … we all work for the same thing, so you should always be nice and he hasn’t been very nice.”
His whole happy happy happy schtick always feels inauthentic to me.

While appearing on the Late Night Lycett most recently, she doubled down on her comment and remained steadfast in her opinion. In the Spice Girl quiz, a question was raised, “Which Spice Girl described James Corden as the ‘biggest d***head celebrity?’” Mel B excitedly raised her hand and said, “Me!”
She’s not wrong

Users on X have rallied to support her claim realizing that they have never heard anyone say good things about Corden. After making degrading comments on the staff, he was also thrown out of Keith McNally’s restaurant in 2022 as the owner called him “a tiny cretin of a man. And the most abusive customer to my Balthazar servers since the restaurant opened 25 years ago.”
I don’t think I’ve ever heard someone say something good about James Corden

Why Corden Remains Disliked By Many Celebrities?
Despite leaving The Late Late Show to spend time with his family, it is said the real reason was Corden’s misconduct on set and his rude behaviour with writers and directors. His off-screen personality has been questioned multiple times wherein he is overly dominant and harsh with the people around him. Even on camera, he frequently interrupts his guests and acts fake to the dismay of viewers. He has been accused of crossing the boundaries between funny and offensive at times too.

Mel B is not the first celebrity to call out Corden. Others including Bill Maher, Ricky Gervais, Ricky Whittle, Artie Lange, Liam Gallagher, and Pierce Brosnan have also expressed negative comments about the British actor. In the end, it all boils down to what he claims he’s good at, which is comedy. But even in those instances, viewers find him annoying and cringe, leaving no room for redemption.
