James Corden Demands For Big Pay Raise, 'The Late Late Show' Host Got Coworkers Mad For Eating Show's Success?
Speculations believe that James Corden was in negotiation regarding his pay, asking for a big raise which has put the rest of his late-night show crew in rage.
One report from National Enquirer via Suggest stated that "The Late Late Show" host has "no plans to share his wealth" and wants to "eat up his show's success" by getting the $5 million pay.
An insider told the outlet, "He's trying to get more money for himself, but doing nothing to make the show a happier place to work." Apart from that, they also added, "While James puts himself out there as Mr. Nice Guy on camera, he is rarely warm or even kind to his staff."
The Two-Faced Corden?
Aside from what the informant said, the comedian was also described as "a bit of a diva" to work with.
He was even compared to fellow late-night show, "People love working for Jimmy Kimmel," another source said. "But it's a different story at Corden's show, where there always seems to be the threat that he's looking for something better."
"To say he isn't well-liked is an understatement," they explained, "He likes to pit his most talented people against each other. He seems to get a kick out of seeing people squirm."
However, despite the rumors, no outlet could further prove the negotiations of the celeb where he could take home the "$5 million payday" he wanted.
On the other hand, Corden's sister, Ruth, once said in an interview that her brother's naturally "the quietest," which could possibly explain the "rarely warm" accusations. She even said, "James is probably the most introverted of the three of us."
