James Corden is under fire for “Spill Your Guts,” a celebrity segment on his late-night show that critics say ridicules beloved Asian dishes.
Saira’s petition called on Corden to change the game or cease it altogether. It asked that he issue a public apology and make a donation to support Asian-owned businesses. It also linked Corden’s segment to current incidents of anti-Asian violence, saying, “Content like this continually perpetuates and encourages harm and racism against Asian Americans in our daily lives.”
However, it turns out the protest was already successful in one of its goals more than a week before it was held.that he had heard of the complaints and, in the future, would not use any of the foods in question. In other words, he would change the show. “The next time we do that bit we absolutely won’t involve or use any of those foods,” the host told Stern. “Our show is a show about joy and light and love, and we don’t want to make the show to upset anybody. Look, in the same way that when we played it, we gave her a pizza covered in cheeseburgers, you know what I mean? We completely understand.”
Corden put off Stern’s questions about whether people had gotten too sensitive. “It’s not for us to determine whether somebody’s upset or hurt about something,” he said. “That’s not for us to decide. All we can do is go, all right, we get it, we hear you, we won’t do that.”
What a stupid non-'issue.' Just because I find an ethnic food disgusting doesn't mean I'm insulting your culture; it's the food itself that's repulsive. Food that I find disgusting is disgusting to me regardless of cultural origin.
Then don’t watch Monty Python’s The Meaning of Life.
When it comes down to folks being offended by Comedy, I always think WWJRD-What Would the great Joan_Rivers do? Maybe James should do the same! 🤔😁
Of course not. This is their fifteen minutes of fame and chance to make a buck by bending offended
Lol how dare he find humor in 'fertilized duck egg that’s incubated for a few weeks and then hard-boiled' In some french provinces they eat cheese with maggots in it. BoRinG
