James Corden Ryanair ban

[Touring442]

I abhor violence, but I might make an exception if confronted by this obnoxious piggy eyed turd.

They banned him for being a tt to staff in a restaurant that has nothing to do with their airline, or the airline industry in general?

How bizarre. It's almost like Ryanair (famed for their treatment of customers) are just out for a bit of free publicity.

This.

Also, I'd be surprised if he was a regular of theirs anyway.

Don't normally pat these things too much attention but it seems to crop up quite a bit with James Cordon.

The restaurant said he was the worst customer they've had in 25 years, that's quite a statement.

Hmm, Ironic that a massive **** is banning another massive ****.

It's only taken them 8 years to find out about him - https://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&...

Oh dear, reading that article it really does sound like he's let the fame go to his head. A male Mariah Carey in the making.

I seem to recall that Virgin Atlantic banned Cilla Black. An ex GF was Virgin cabin crew in the mid 1990's and said that she was absolutely vile.

Well, her voice was more like a foghorn at times.

This is a good thread if you want to know about Celebs on planes.

The Reddit AMA has almost legendary status:

Love the first post:

“ Hey James. You won’t remember me but me and my friends sat at a table next to you and Harry Styles + some others in Manchurian Legends in London’s Chinatown about 6 years ago. We didn’t bother you but you were a massively entitled who yelled and treated the waitstaff like st and when one of my party politely suggested you calm down, you got really aggressive and threatening (in a chubby way. Like a boozy panda.) So my question is this; why did Harry seem so cool, while you were such a massive throbbing bellend?”

That comes as quite a surprise...

So where do we stand on free speech and cancel culture on this one?

This is so confusing

Personally (and this is a controversial opinion I'll grant you) I quite like JC output as an actor. I've not watched his chat show stuff as I don't really "get" celeb culture. I also don't much care whether he is a bit of a knob off screen. I'm sure hundreds of the people I watch on TV or film have behavioural traits that I wouldn't like. Most of the music i listen to is created by people with some sort of personality disorder, and i really don't care.

It seems he behaved like a tt, has apologised and that apology has been accepted by the restaurant. End of story isn't it?

Cancel culture gone mad. Ryannair have quite a funny SM team - surely this is just advertising for the airline, as it’s unlikely that Corden would fly On that POS airline anyway.

This.

Whilst I'm having a wee chuckle over this, realistically it's an airline someone as entitled as Corden would never fly so it's just a shameless publicity stunt.

Both classics, love Stewart Lee. Popbh had some great stories about Corden. And Cilla, according to Popbh, was an absolutely dreadful human being.
