James Corden Says People Think He Was Fired From Late Late Show

After leaving The Late Late Show desk behind last spring, James Corden said he’s having a hard time convincing people not to feel sorry for him.

“I’ll be in a pub or something and people will be like, ‘So why’d you come back?’ and I’ll be like, ‘Oh, ’cause Max has finished sixth grade and we really wanted him to have a relationship with his grandparents,’” Corden told host Jimmy Kimmel. “And people will honestly be like, ‘You don’t have to give me that bulls–t. It’s fine, mate. If you got fired, you got fired.’”

When Kimmel, 56, told Corden he should look into getting an official letter from CBS saying he made the decision to leave the late-night show himself, Corden said it wouldn’t do any good.“I would, except they don’t know what CBS is,” Corden said of his skeptics in the U.K. “So they’ll go, ‘Well, that’s not a real thing.’ And then I have to tell them what the show was, and they’ll go, ‘Hang on, it was on at 12:30 at night. That’s a ridiculous time to put a TV show on.
