You may have already noticed recently that The Late Late Show host James Corden has slimmed down quite a bit. His weight has fluctuated over the years, but he seems to have finally found the trick for his body and his metabolism to win the weight loss war.
Find out which one food the 41-year-old has given up and in so doing, seen an incredible weight loss of 70 pounds.
Because of his extra weight, Corden felt he was stereotyped in every possible chubby buddy kind of role imaginable. He spoke with actor David Tennant, on Tennants podcast, about the experience of most overweight actors, of being relegated to unromantic, asexual roles because of their appearance.
If you only watch television or films, if an alien came back and they had to take a reading on planet Earth by just watching films or TV, they would imagine that if you are chubby or fat or big, you never really fall in love, you never have sex.
Certainly no-one really ever finds you attractive. You will be good friends with people who are attractive and often will be a great sense of comfort to them and perhaps chip in with the odd joke every now and again.
It felt like if the world of entertainment was a big banquet table, people are like, There isnt a seat for you here. I was like, If thats not going to happen then Im going to try to make something happen for myself.'
Corden went on to write and star in the hit BBC sitcom Gavin & Stacey with Ruth Jones and now hosts The Late Late Show on CBS.
In September 2019, talk show host Bill Maher on his Real Time with Bill Maher, made the unfortunate comment that Fat isnt a birth defect and Nobody comes out of womb needing to buy two seats on the airplane. He shocked many when he stated, Fat-shaming doesnt need to end, it needs to make a comeback.
Corden couldnt remain silent after hearing Mahers divisive and controversial comments.
Theres a common and insulting misconception that fat people are stupid and lazy, and were not, Corden said on his late show. We get it, we know. . . Ive struggled my entire life trying to manage my weight and I suck at it. Ive had good days and bad months. . .
Were not all as lucky asBill Maher. We dont all have a sense of superiority that burns 35,000 calories a day, Corden joked.
In the meantime, Bill, while youre encouraging people to think about what goes into their mouths, Corden concluded, just think a little harder about what comes out of yours.
The actor and host has been sporting a much slimmer silhouette and recently revealed to The Daily Mail the surprisingly simple way he has accomplished it.
Ive cut out sugar and bread, and eat only at mealtimes now.
I didnt realize before that it wasnt OK to constantly graze all day, that this wasnt a thing and that it was frowned upon.
The Gavin & Stacey star sought out help from nutritional therapist Amelia Freer, who also has as a client Cordens friend Victoria Beckham.
