Summary
James Corden has gotten himself into some hot water! After a couple of incidents in which he was abusive to wait staff, the host of “The Late Late Show” was 86'd from famed New York City restaurant Balthazar. On Monday, owner Keith McNally took to Instagram to slam James for his rude dining conduct, calling him “a tiny Cretin of a man.” The “Cats” actor has since personally apologized to Keith, and the ban has been lifted. This is not a first for James. He has been outed for this kind of behavior before, but never with this kind of widespread attention. So is James' apology just a gratuitous attempt to save face? Or is he sincerely sorry and ready to change his “cretinous” ways?
