James Corden, known for his witty banter and humour, jokingly referred to UK fans as “thieves” during a recent appearance on Late Night with Seth Meyers. The 45-year-old British comedian and talk show host shared amusing anecdotes about being approached by fans in both Los Angeles and London, highlighting the differences in celebrity culture between the two cities.

During the interview, Corden reminisced about his experiences being recognized by fans in Los Angeles, where he hosted The Late Late Show from 2015 to 2023. He humorously described how the celebrity hierarchy in LA often left him feeling insignificant compared to Hollywood icons like Oprah Winfrey.

However, it was Corden’s playful interaction with UK fans that stole the spotlight. After mentioning his UK television show, Gavin and Stacey, Corden was met with enthusiastic applause from a portion of the audience. Curious about the fans’ origins, he discovered they hailed from Kent, prompting him to jokingly warn the audience, “Kent!? Look out guys, be careful.”

Upon learning that the fans were from Chatham, Corden quipped, “Oh, they’re thieves, they are thieves,” before bursting into laughter and expressing his appreciation for their presence at the show. The lighthearted exchange showcased Corden’s comedic timing and rapport with his audience.

Corden went on to discuss how fans in the UK often approached him about Gavin and Stacey, reciting catchphrases from the show and inquiring about the cliffhanger ending of the 2019 Christmas Special. While he remained tight-lipped about the character’s response to Nessa’s proposal, Corden’s playful demeanour endeared him to fans both in the studio and watching at home.

The amusing moment captured during Corden’s talk show appearance is just one example of his charm and ability to entertain audiences on both sides of the Atlantic. As he continues to delight viewers with his comedic talents, fans can expect more memorable moments from the affable British host.
