The 'Late Late Show' host chastised 'The New York Times' for even asking him about it.

Comedian James Corden recently sat down with The New York Times to discuss his new mini-series Mammals along with his plans to leave The Late Late Show next year.

Of course, the interview was booked before the infamous Balthazar ban.


Here's a refresher:

After Corden apologized "profusely," the ban by restauranteur Keith McNally was lifted.

During the Timesinterview, Corden addressed the frenzy surrounding his publicized behavior, claiming it all to be "silly."

"I haven't done anything wrong, on any level. So why would I ever cancel [the interview]?"
"I was there. I get it."
"I feel so Zen about the whole thing. Because I think it's so silly."
"I just think it's beneath all of us. It's beneath you. It's certainly beneath your publication."

According to the Times, during the interview - which took place at a restaurant - a woman within earshot coincidently complained about the eggs she ordered.

Corden commented:

"Can you imagine now, if we just blasted her on Twitter? Would that be fair?"
"That is my point. It's insane."

Of course, Corden was referring to the incident at Balthazar in which Corden yelled at a server because "a bit of egg white" was mixed into his wife's egg yolk omelette.

Twitter wasn't nearly as dismissive of the incident.











Corden shared that he wan't really aware of the media frenzy surrounding the restaurant ban.

"I haven't really read anything."
"It's strange. It's strange when you were there."
"I think I'm probably going to have to talk about it on Monday's show."
"My feeling, often, is never explain, never complain."
"But I'll probably have to talk about it."

Let's hope he not only addresses the incident but also realizes the effect that harsh words can have on others.

Nancy Mace's Claim That No One Would Know Simone Biles' Name If Men Competed Against Her Gets Epically Fact-Checked

South Carolina MAGA Republican Representative Nancy Mace has been making a name for herself by being the most vulgar and vile anti-trans person in Congress. She's screamed transphobic slurs in official committee meetings and attacked anyone who opposes her bigotry.

Now she's decided to take on the most decorated gymnast in history—in women's and men's gymnastics—Simone Biles, who holds the record for the most Olympic and World Championship medals combined. Biles won 41 medals in just those events, surpassing all other gymnasts.

Vance Tried To Make A Joke About Seeing 'Les Misérables' At The Kennedy Center—And It's Peak Cringe

Vice President JD Vance had people groaning after he made a bad joke about the production of Les Misérables he and his wife, Second Lady Usha Vance, attended at the Kennedy Center with President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump.

The musical, set in 19th century France, tells the story of Jean Valjean, an ex-convict who is released from prison for stealing a loaf of bread. The story touches on timeless themes such as justice and mercy—and also happens to be about people resisting an authoritarian takeover, which many find ironic given the Trump administration's response to protests in Los Angeles.

People Who Smashed Wedding Cake In Their Spouse's Face Reveal How Their Relationship Is Going Now

According to The Knot wedding resource magazine and website, smashing cake into the face of a spouse after tying the knot is a tradition tied to medieval England. To celebrate the marriage, the bride would toss a piece of piece of cake over her shoulder for good luck.

This evolved into newlyweds feeding a piece of cake to one another, then taking frosting or a small bit of cake and rubbing it gently onto each other's faces—usually the cheek or tip of the nose.
