    Each week night, THE LATE LATE SHOW with JAMES CORDEN throws the ultimate late night after party with a mix of celebrity guests, edgy musical acts, games and sketches. Corden differentiates his show by offering viewers a peek behind-the-scenes into the green room, bringing all of his guests out at once and lending his musical and acting talents to various sketches. Additionally, bandleader Reggie Watts and the house band provide original, improvised music throughout the show. Since Corden took the reigns as host in March 2015, he has quickly become known for generating buzzworthy viral videos, such as Carpool Karaoke."

      I just assumed the joke was that she wrote them to fictional women, and then signed with a name that could be female. And that everyone missed it because she didn't say the letters were to women.

    • @redraven24
      @redraven24 Před 7 lety +20

      It's true! This interview made me giggle and cringe at the same time because when I was in high school, I totally use to write fake letters to fake people just to practice getting into a different type of person's head for a while. Now I write novels lol. It's funny cause my English, Creative Writing and Drama teachers often had us do epistolary style fiction writing to help understand a character's perspective. It's rather awful that Ellen's being razzed for doing something that teaching curriculum has established for students to use in their education.
