James Corden Net Worth 2024: Updated Wealth of the TV Host

June 12, 2024 by newhiphopnews

James Corden, the multifaceted English talent, has made a significant mark in the entertainment industry. As of 2024, his net worth is estimated to be around $70 million, according to Celebrity Net Worth. But how did he amass such wealth, and what are the milestones in his illustrious career?

Born on August 22, 1978, in Hillingdon, London, Corden spent his formative years in the village of Hazelmere. His mother served as a social worker, while his father pursued a career in music before transitioning to selling bibles. From a young age, Corden’s artistic prowess was evident. By 18, he was already making appearances in films, and in his early 20s, he explored opportunities in television, starring in series like Boyz Unlimited, Teachers, and Hollyoaks.

Rising To Prominence

While Corden was steadily building his acting career, his real breakthrough came in the 2000s. His role in the show Fat Friends earned him a nomination for a Royal Television Society Award. Further cementing his reputation was his performance in the 2004 stage production of The History Boys, which later led to a role in the film adaptation.

However, it was Gavin & Stacey, a sitcom he co-wrote and co-starred in, that truly catapulted him to stardom. The series was critically acclaimed, earning Corden a BAFTA for Best Male Comedy Performer and numerous other accolades.

Diversifying His Portfolio

Post Gavin & Stacey, Corden ventured into various projects. He combined comedy and sports journalism in A League Of Their Own, focusing on British football. He also made memorable appearances in Doctor Who and took on lead roles in films like Gulliver’s Travels and The Three Muskateers. His performance in the play One Man, Two Guvnors was particularly noteworthy, garnering widespread acclaim.

The Late Late Show Era

Corden’s international fame skyrocketed when he took over as the host of The Late Late Show in March 2015, a position he held until May 2023. His annual salary for the show was a whopping $9 million. Under his helm, the show introduced segments like Carpool Karaoke, which became a viral sensation. Featuring celebrities like Adele, Mariah Carey, and Justin Bieber, some of these segments garnered over 200 million views on YouTube.

Personal Life And Real Estate Ventures

On the personal front, Corden has been married to Julia Carey since 2012, and the couple has three children. They relocated to Los Angeles when Corden became the host of The Late Late Show. In terms of real estate, Corden made significant investments, including a $9.7 million mansion in Brentwood, which he later sold for $17 million in 2023. He also owns properties in Belsize Park, London, and Wargrave in Berkshire.

Conclusion

James Corden’s journey from a small village in England to the glitzy world of Hollywood is nothing short of inspirational. With a net worth of $70 million in 2024, he stands as a testament to hard work, versatility, and the ability to reinvent oneself. Whether it’s his comedic timing, his acting prowess, or his hosting skills, Corden has proven time and again that he is a force to be reckoned with in the entertainment industry.

Adele Returns For Final “Carpool Karaoke”

April 26, 2023 by newhiphopnews

James Corden is a television host that you either love or hate. Regardless, you cannot deny that he has been immensely successful. He has helmed The Late Late Show since 2015, turning into a cultural behemoth with segments such as “Carpool Karaoke” and “Spill Your Guts”. He was also one of the first late-night shows to find success posting content to YouTube, following in the vein of Jimmy Fallon on The Tonight Show. The Late Late Show YouTube channel has had over 10 billion views and has over 27 million subscribers.

However, in 2022, it was announced that Corden would be leaving The Late Late Show in 2023. Furthermore, the show would not be finding a new host and instead, end its current run. The final edition of the show is scheduled to air at 12:30am EDT on April 27. That meant that show’s final week was expected to be the one that started to wrap things up, so that the final show could be a blowout finale.

Adele And Corden Swap Stories And Shed Tears

Carpool Karaoke has been a staple of the show for many years. Corden, or sometimes a special guest, drives around alongside a musical guest and belts out some tunes. There have been many, many famous faces in the segment over the years. However, British singer Adele is perhaps the most memorable appearance. She was the first guest on the segment and her appearance has since racked up 216 million views on YouTube.

Fittingly, Adele reunited with Corden for the segment’s last appearance on April 24. In a 21-minute segment on the show, the two joke about and share stories as they “drive James to work.” They also reflect on James’ legacy and experience with The Late Late Show before breaking out into song, as the tradition. Tears are shed and laughs shared as Corden and Adele share in the last edition of the segment they helped kickstart. It’s unknown what Corden’s next move will be. However, The Late Late Show will be replaced with a reboot of the panel show @midnight. The @midnight reboot is being produced by Funny or Die and Stephen Colbert. Are you sad about James Corden leaving?

Diddy Says Jay-Z Is Only Rapper Allowed To Use His Government Name: Watch

April 21, 2023 by newhiphopnews

The last ever episode of James Corden’s Late Late Show is quickly approaching. Fans are obviously sad to see the English entertainer moving on, but he’s definitely keeping them happy with an impressive roster of final guests. Most recently, he recruited Diddy to join him for this week’s Carpool Karaoke segment, during which the host and his pal drive around the city and sing along to their favourite songs while spilling tea. Among the hot topics discussed by the New York native on screen were his tips for getting it on in the bedroom, as well as some secrets about his fellow rap stars.

Regarding the former, the father of seven credits his success to his ’90s R&B playlist, red lighting, and keeping the focus on each other by putting phones away. As for the latter, he revealed to the late-night personality that there’s only one other lyricist who’s allowed to call him by his government name. “We call each other Sean, [but] nobody else can call me Sean,” he said of Jay-Z, who was born Sean Carter while Diddy’s is Combs.

Diddy Tells All on Carpool Karaoke

Those who do have the privilege of calling him by the name he was given at birth are on the “Sean-approved” page in the 53-year-old’s book, he joked. As HipHopDX notes, other popular nicknames from over the years include Love, Puffy, Puff Daddy, Sean John, and P. Diddy, among others. Apart from Hov, Diddy noted that his mother also obviously has permission to use his original moniker.

Apart from his Carpool Karaoke stint, the producer has also been making headlines after Yung Miami confirmed that they’re no longer romantically involved. At this time, it remains unclear what women he’s spending time with, though he’s certainly been showing plenty of affection to his youngest daughter, who’s also named Sean Love Combs. Following the young one’s birth last year, her father and the City Girl began drifting apart, though she says they’re still friends. Did you catch Diddy on last night’s episode of The Late Late Show? If not, stream it above, and tap back in later for more pop culture news updates.

Diddy’s Spicy Bedroom Advice Includes His R&B Playlist, Red Lighting, And No Phones

April 21, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Yung Miami recently announced that she and Diddy have gone their separate ways romantically, but they both seem to still be living their best lives. The City Girl recently spoke with The Cut about some of her major career moves as of late, along with her relationships, and is gearing up to drop new music with JT in the coming months. For his part, Diddy has been busy taking care of his baby girl, Love Sean Combs, to who cyber security specialist Dana Tran gave birth last year. The producer doesn’t appear to be officially dating his 28-year-old baby mama, though they do seem to have a healthy co-parenting relationship.

Aside from spending time with his seventh child, the “I’ll Be Missing You” hitmaker found time in his busy schedule to kick it with James Corden on The Late Late Show. Diddy joined him to drive around the city during the series’ beloved Carpool Karaoke series, during which he dished out some hot and heavy bedroom advice to the English host between belting out songs. When asked how little Love’s arrival came to be, the 53-year-old declared that it has something to do with his return to the music industry.

Diddy Gets NSFW on Carpool Karaoke

During his lovemaking sessions, Combs apparently listens to a perfectly curated R&B playlist which he described as”the Super Bowl of [the genre].” It’s notably made of throwback tracks from the ’90s when Puff was a much younger man. After hearing come of the details, Corden began piecing together what sort of vibe should be set, saying, “I go home, I light a candle…” Diddy promptly cut him off, going full dad mode to remind his friend of the dangers that can come from playing with fire. “You got to put the red light on, no candle,” he schooled James. “It may burn down the place.”

Another piece of advice the New York native had to offer is creating an “off-the-grid” environment while building up to sex, forgetting about phones and other technology. Would you follow any of Diddy’s bedroom tips, or do you have rituals of your own that work? Let us know in the comments, and check back later for more pop culture news updates.

Bad Bunny Had The Pleasure Of Putting James Corden In A Headlock On ‘Carpool Karaoke’

March 15, 2023 by newhiphopnews

James Corden has made The Late Late Show a cultural staple since taking over the late-night program in 2015. The experience hasn’t been entirely positive, though, as it sure looks like a lot of people hate Corden. He certainly didn’t earn himself public favor last year with joke-stealing accusations and the infamous restaurant situation. So, on the latest “Carpool Karaoke” segment, Bad Bunny got to do something it seems a lot of people wish they had the chance to try: put Corden in a headlock.

Bad Bunny has a strong connection to WWE, and towards the end of “Carpool Karaoke,” that conversation topic came up. So, Bunny and Corden took to a wrestling ring, in which Bunny showed Corden some moves, including a headlock, a camel clutch, and more. Wrestling legend Rey Mysterio also made a surprise appearance and helped Corden develop a more intimidating wrestling attitude.

Bad Bunny is one of the last “Carpool Karaoke” guests before Corden leaves The Late Late Show, as his final episode is set for April 28. That last show will be preceded by a prime-time special, The Last Last Late Late Show. While Bunny is as of now the final confirmed “Carpool Karaoke” guest, given how important the segment has been to Corden, it feels likely there will be some sort of new installment in the special and/or the finale.

Watch Bad Bunny’s “Carpool Karaoke” above.

Bad Bunny Will Be One Of The Final ‘Carpool Karaoke’ Guests Before James Corden’s ‘The Late Late Show’ Ends

March 10, 2023 by newhiphopnews

It looks like Bad Bunny is finally blessing us with a “Carpool Karaoke” segment. Today (March 10), The Late Late Show With James Corden shared a preview of an upcoming segment featuring the Puerto Rican superstar.

In the clip, Bad Bunny is introduced as “The biggest streaming artist in the world.” Corden and Bad Bunny are then seen singing along to the latter’s hit single, “Tití Me Preguntó.”

Bad Bunny’s “Carpool Karaoke” segment will air on this Tuesday’s (March 14) episode of The Late Late Show, at 12:37 a.m. ET. It’s coming just in time, too, as Corden’s last episode of The Late Late Show is set for April 28, so who knows how many “Carpool Karaoke” segments Corden has left before the show wraps up.

Last year proved to be eventful for Bad Bunny. His fourth studio album, Un Verano Sin Ti, reached No. 1 on the Billboard 200 and boasted several hits, like “Tití Me Preguntó,” “Moscow Mule,” “Me Porto Bonito,” and “Despues De La Playa.” The album was nominated for two Grammy awards, including the coveted Album Of The Year award, as well as the Best Música Urbana Album. He won the latter of those, and in his acceptance speech, Bad Bunny said that the album was a result of pure passion.

“I just made it, this album, with love and passion,” he said, “and when you do things with love and passion, everything is easier, and life is easier.”

Kim Kardashian & James Corden Link Up For “Carpool Karaoke”

March 3, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Throughout her rise to fame, Kim Kardashian has dabbled in various industries, from makeup and beauty to shapewear. Long before she became the successful billionaire businesswoman we know her as today, the reality starlet even tried her hand at music. Unfortunately, that didn’t go in her favour. As Page Six notes, it was 2011 when she released her “Jam (Turn It Up)” single, complete with background vocals from The-Dream.

Many were quick to criticize the 42-year-old’s singing skills, even dubbing her “the worst singer in the reality TV universe.” Since being so brutally slammed in the news, Kardashian has opted to avoid performing in public. However, that’s all about to change. Ahead of James Corden’s late-night show coming to an end, she’ll be joining him to let out some of her favourite songs during his Carpool Karaoke segment.

Kardashian Karaoke

On Thursday (March 2), the California native was photographed with the British comedian in Malibu. They appeared to share plenty of smiles and laughs together as they made a pit stop at a convenience store to try on hats and sunglasses. Kardashian looked ready for spring in a dark pair of distressed jeans worn over a body suit. Her dark hair was perfectly slicked back into a long braid, and she completed her outfit with silver accessories.

Corden also kept it casual, donning a plain black tee with blue jeans and Gucci sneakers. In the past, he’s been joined by guests like Adele, Nicki Minaj, Céline Dion and the Migos. The latter trio went viral for their Carpool Karaoke stint. At the time, they sang Neil Diamond’s “Sweet Caroline” with all the right adlibs. It remains unclear when Kardashian’s episode will air. Nevertheless, fans are certainly eager to hear if her vocals have improved at all over the years.

Thankfully, the SKIMS founder has her TikTok page to get some practice in, which she’s already been doing. For the most part, she and her daughter North West’s joint feed has been filled with videos of them lipsyncing along to New York rapper Ice Spce lately. In the latest upload, Kim Kardashian is joined by her gal pal La La Anthony to rap “In Ha Mood” via FaceTime. Read more about that here, and check back later for more pop culture news updates.

‘@midnight’ Reboot To Replace James Corden’s ‘The Late Late Show’

February 8, 2023 by newhiphopnews

@midnight is returning to TV’s comedy lineup after 6 years. Following James Corden’s departure from The Late Late Show, there will be no new host. Instead, The Late Late Show will be ending after almost 3 decades. CBS will instead be airing a reboot of the game show, @midnight. The show originally aired for 600 episodes on Comedy Central from 2013-2017. It will now occupy CBS’s 12:30 time slot, according to sources. The switch will happen in the spring, when Corden says goodbye to the show after almost 9 years.

The original host of @midnight, Chris Hardwick, will likely not return to the reboot. According to Variety, CBS hopes to have a female host on the show. They are also pushing to have more diversity both in front of and behind the camera. In its heyday, @midnight had a quick-witted rotating crew of comedians who played improv games about what was trending on social media. One episode could range in topics from a new Apple emoji to absurd but viral YouTube hits. Guests ranged from Jenny Slate to Ali Wong and even Weird Al Yankovic.

We hear that Stephen Colbert will be executive producing the new @midnight reincarnation. The show comes from the comedy brand ‘Funny or Die’, who created the original series on Comedy Central. This makes two hours of late-night television involvement for Colbert, who also hosts The Late Show at 11:30 on CBS. Colbert also produces Tooning Out the News and Hell of a Week with Charlamagne Tha God, as was previously reported.

A CBS spokesperson declined to comment on the network’s plans for the future of its airtime. However, CBS’s taking of @midnight would mark its second raid from Comedy Central for its late-night airtime. Stephen Colbert jumped from Comedy Central’s The Daily Show to CBS’s The Late Show in 2015. Additionally, Corden’s lack of replacement follows a trend of what’s happening with Late Night TV. TBS never replaced Conan O’Brien following his departure from Conan in 2021. NBC never replaced Lily Singh following the cancelation of A Little Late. The future of late-night TV is certainly up in the air.

Lizzo Does ‘Carpool Karaoke’ To Sing Beyoncé And Reflect On Her Influence: ‘She’s Been My North Star’

June 28, 2022 by newhiphopnews

Weeks away from her upcoming second major-label album, Special, Lizzo stopped by The Late Late Show With James Corden for the show’s “Carpool Karaoke” segment.

Lizzo and Corden kicked off the karaoke session with a performance of her hit single, “Good As Hell,” which was released in 2016 but reached No. 3 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 2019. Later, the two sang “Juice” from Lizzo’s 2019 major-label debut album, Cuz I Love You. Corden then surprised Lizzo, a well-trained flautist, by pulling out a flute from the back seat. Lizzo, who has been playing flute since she was 12, then shows off her flute skills. Lizzo that she calls her own flute “Sasha Floot,” named after her fellow Houstonian Beyoncé’s alter-ego, Sasha Fierce.

“When I was shy, or when I didn’t think I was cool, and when I was getting picked on, I would listen to Beyoncé in my bedroom, and it would transport me,” Lizzo said. “I would feel something. I would feel like my life is going to be better. There’s hope for me. When I dropped out of college and I was really depressed, I listened to [Beyoncé’s sophomore album] B’day on repeat. I would just sing B’day all the time, and I was like, ‘I’m gonna be a singer, I’m gonna be a singer.’ The way she makes people is how I want to make people feel with music. She’s been my north star.”

The two then sing Beyoncé’s hit single, “Crazy In Love.”

Other high points in the episode include Lizzo previewing the album’s title track, before she revealed that she grew up in The Church Of God In Christ and wasn’t allowed to listen to secular music growing up.

“Would you have been allowed to listen to Lizzo’s music?” asked Corden

“Early on Lizzo, yes,” Lizzo replied. “But when Lizzo started cussing, no. I’ve pissed a few family members off.”

Toward the end of the episode, the two perform Lizzo’s most recent hit single, “About Damn Time.” They are later joined in the park by Jaeden Gomez, who created the song’s TikTok dance, as well as a large group of people, creating a flash mob.

Check out the full segment above.

Nicki Minaj Does An Awesome Adele Impression, Returning The Favor After Adele’s Legendary ‘Monster’ Rap

February 4, 2022 by newhiphopnews

James Corden’s “Carpool Karaoke” segment on The Late Late Show has produced some memorable music moments over the years. Perhaps the most beloved among them is when Adele rapped Nicki Minaj’s verse from Kanye West’s “Monster,” a viral moment that helped the Adele “Carpool Karaoke” episode become easily the most-watched video on the Late Late Show YouTube channel, with over 252 million views as of today. Well, Minaj was on Corden last night, and while there, she returned the favor by showing of her impression of Adele.

The two re-watched Adele’s rap and then Minaj offered a reaction, saying, “First of all, It’s Adele. Second of all, it’s ‘Monster.’ You guys made such an amazing freaking tag team, by the way. I never got to tell you that. That made my day, my year. I probably got a thousand phone calls about that one thing.”

Corden then asked Minaj what her Adele impersonation sounds like, and Minaj replied by doing an Adele voice and explaining her thought process behind achieving the nuanced impression:

“Alright, in order for me to channel Adele, I sort of have to think like a Black lady in London, right? Because the thing is, normally, everybody knows, my British accent is sort of like a posh white lady, a rich white lady, right? But with Adele, I sort of have to, like, transform, like she might have used to sell crack. Like maybe she used to be hustling, like nickels and dimes in the hood, and then she got her big break. That’s what I see when I see her, like she’s always… it’s so expressive, right?”

Minaj was all over The Late Late Show last night, so check out the Adele bit above and other clips from the show below.
