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 Times interview, 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.
\u201c@scorpihobabe @PopCrave If he didn\u2019t think he did anything wrong then why did he apologize to the restaurant owner, who accepted his apology by the way?\u201d— Pop Crave (@Pop Crave) 1666322581
\u201c@PopCrave lol I love how he says this but didn\u2019t he call the owner apologizing\u201d— Pop Crave (@Pop Crave) 1666322581
\u201c@blktinabelcher @PopCrave Whenever someone says something is "beneath all of us" it's a huge red flag. Gaslighting 101.\u201d— Pop Crave (@Pop Crave) 1666322581
\u201c@PopCrave I have lost more and more respect for this man as the year has gone on and I have read comments around the world on his behaviour in public, on planes, in restaurants, in conversations . I did wonder when he gloated about the amount of money he had been offered to stay on TLLS.\u201d— Pop Crave (@Pop Crave) 1666322581
\u201c@PopCrave no its beneath you because you think the working class is beneath you\u201d— Pop Crave (@Pop Crave) 1666322581
\u201c@PopCrave \u201cI feel so zen about the whole thing\u201d sounds like what a wealthy white man with zero awareness would say\u201d— Pop Crave (@Pop Crave) 1666322581
\u201c@PopCrave When you're a bad person, you're the only one who doesn't recognize it because it just affects the people around you.\u201d— Pop Crave (@Pop Crave) 1666322581
\u201c@PopCrave & \u201cby beneath all of us\u201d he means the people he belittled & screamed at are beneath him & he shouldn\u2019t have to apologize. Just by saying he didn\u2019t do anything wrong proves this to be true.\u201d— Pop Crave (@Pop Crave) 1666322581
\u201c@PopCrave Well that just says everything you need it to say does it. His behavior is acceptable to him\u201d— Pop Crave (@Pop Crave) 1666322581
\u201c@PopCrave \u201cIt\u2019s beneath me\u201d. It\u2019s very telling how he feels about the service workers.\u201d— Pop Crave (@Pop Crave) 1666322581
\u201c@PopCrave So I\u2019m hearing \u201cThese workers emotions are beneath me and my team\u201d\u201d— Pop Crave (@Pop Crave) 1666322581
\u201c@PopCrave Of course be used that phrasing. He thinks a lot of things \u2014 and people \u2014 are beneath him.\u201d— Pop Crave (@Pop Crave) 1666322581
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.
