James Cordon is getting some bad press lately
The host said he did not know the joke came from Gervais and did not explain how it came to be in his monologue on Monday James Corden has responded to criticism that he appeared to copy a joke originally made by Ricky Gervais, saying he delivered it “obviously not knowing it came from him”. The host of the US Late Late Show gave a monologue during Monday’s episode addressing Elon Musk’s Twitter takeover and told a gag that viewers noted was remarkably similar to one from Gervais’s 2018 stand-up show Humanity. Gervais drew attention to the similarities in a now-deleted Twitter post. In the joke, Corden says: “When you see Elon Musk talk about Twitter he does this thing where he goes, ‘Well, it’s the town square.’ “But it isn’t. Because if someone puts up a poster in a town square that says ‘guitar lessons available’, you don’t get people in the town going, ‘I don’t want to play the guitar! I want to play the piano, you piece of ****!’” “Well that sign wasn’t for you, it was for someone else. You don’t have to get mad about all of it!” Responding to the accusations, Corden tweeted from the Late Late Show account: “Inadvertently told a brilliant Ricky Gervais joke on the show last night, obviously not knowing it came from him. It’s brilliant, because it’s a Ricky Gervais joke. You can watch all Ricky’s excellent specials on Netflix. J x”. Gervais defended his fellow comedian earlier in the day after a Twitter user asked if Corden asked permission to use the joke. He replied: “No. I reckon one of the writers ‘came up with it’ for him. I doubt he would knowingly just copy such a famous stand up routine word for word like that.” https://www.irishtimes.com/culture/t...-gervais-joke/

Whoever gives him his script is in trouble, he/she must have been trolling James

I've never heard Gervais ever tell a joke. He just insults people.
He's about as funny as 50 pulsating boils on the bum. |

it is possible both get their jokes written for them and person who wrote the joke just recycled it?

Obviously people should probably let it go soon though, I mean people shouldn't try to make his life harder with a mob of people harassing him.

And then he said it's because his wife had an allergy but surely if you're allergic to part of an egg you have to stay away from all the egg? It was a weird excuse

Despite all of that though, I honestly hope people don't get him to lose his job.

he's always had that reputation for being a bit of a **** in real life and has still managed to get work so I'm sure he'll be fine
