From negative experiences at restaurants to criticisms from the fans and his peers, James Corden's reputation has taken a hit in recent years.

Though she hinted that Corden was a little too into his celeb status.
Osborune tells Mandel, "I haven't bumped into him but a person who is very close to him called me, and said, 'Did he ever do anything wrong to you.' I said, absolutely not, he's also been very much a gentleman to me."
She continues, "I know him superficially. You do somebody's show a couple of times, that's as much as I know him. So I don't know him as a person. And I got the impression just by those few meetings that he was quite flash and a name-dropper. And that bugs me."
Sharon's thoughts can be heard in the first part of the video below.

Howie Mandel Also Had A Negative Experience With James Corden
Mandel doesn't like it when people are mad at him. That was the case with himself and James Corden. According to Mandel, Corden wasn't pleased with Mandel's attempt at starting a show that resembled his famous Carpool Karaoke.
Mandel revealed he tried to explain himself and how the concept was different, but never got an answer from Corden despite calling him.
"Someone came to me with an idea of a show. It was basically Cash Cab, but all music questions. So people had to fill in the lyrics. I was booked to be on his show and he canceled me. And would never take my call. I heard from people close to him he was mad I stole his idea. Which it wasn't my idea. I tried to call him, and he would never take the call."
Mandel continued, "You don't have to like me, just take the call and hear me out."
Howie revealed he was especially irked given that he cares what people think, unlike Osbourne. The most can be seen in the video above following Sharon's story of her experience with Corden.
It seems like Osbourne's shot at Corden started long before her interview alongside Howie Mandel.
