For eight-years now, James Corden has been a late-night host heralded by many for reimagining the more proto-typical elements of that tried and true formula to re-invent it for the viral age. If you need proof, look no further than “The Late, Late Show’s” YouTube channel which has almost 10 billion views and more than 28 Million subscribers. When Corden took over hosting duties from Craig Ferguson in 2015, he was already an award-winning actor and writer who had co-starred in the Bafta winning BBC sitcom, “Gavin and Stacy”, but as big of an impact as Corden made almost immediately upon taking over, he also found himself mired in controversy, perhaps best personified by 2019 Ask Me Anything on Reddit that became, if you’ll allow me to quote The Hollywood Reporter: An embarrassing reminder of his unpopularity”. In what was quite possibly the shortest question and answer session of all time, Corden only wound up responding to three inquiries before being flooded with somewhere around 700 negative comments. Seriously. Once that happened, James Corden promptly left the chat, perhaps in the hope of preserving some semblance of his carefully cultivated reputation as a loveable Brit taking over America. But over time, that act has become tired and run its course. Simply put, audiences just don’t seem to be buying Corden’s “nice guy” image anymore, especially not when it conflicts with the many controversial things he’s done over the past few years. So, if you’ve ever wondered what it took to bring down the King of “Carpool Karaoke”, then keep watching our newest episode here on SnapChat where we’re going to investigate “The Downfall of James Corden”.
