James Corden recently decided to check out of his lackluster tv show and head back to the UK. And it sounds like some New Yorkers will be glad to see him go.
Keith McNally owns one of New York City's most beloved restaurants, Balthazar. Last night he took to Instagram to share why he has officially banned Corden from his restaurant. Here is that post in full:
James Corden is a Hugely gifted comedian, but a tiny Cretin of a man. And the most abusive customer to my Balthazar servers since the restaurant opened 25 years ago.
I don't often 86 a customer, to today I 86'd Corden. It did not make me laugh. Here are two examples of the funny man's treatment of my staff.
MANAGER'S REPORT # 1:
'In June, James Corden was here on table 61. (Although this is diabolical, it happens Very occasionally in all restaurants.) After eating his main course, Corden showed the hair to Balthazar manager G. who was very apologetic. Corden was extremely nasty to G, and said: “Get us another round of drinks this second. And also take care of all of our drinks so far. This way I write any nasty reviews in yelp or anything like that." '
MANAGER'S REPORT # 2:
'James Corden was at Balthazar with his wife on October 9th for brunch. He asked for a table outside. Brunch Maitre D' Allie Wolters took the party to table 301. Mr. Corden's wife ordered an egg yolk omelette with gruyere cheese and salad. A few minutes after they received the food, James called their server, M. K. and told her there was a little bit of egg white mixed with the egg yolk. M. K. informed the floor manager, G. The kitchen remade the dish but unfortunately sent it with home fries instead of salad. That's when James Corden began yelling like crazy to the server: "You can't do your job! You can't do your job! Maybe I should go into the kitchen and cook the omelette myself!" M.K. was very apologetic and brought G. over to the table. He returned the dish, and after that, everything was fine. He gave them promo Champagne glasses to smooth things out. G. said that Corden was pleasant to him but nasty to the server.' M.K. was very shaken, but professional that she is, continued to finish her shift.'
THAT is some series smoke. Shots fired. Corden has yet to respond.

Make no mistake. Heidi Klum is a slave to attention and is known for a near constant presence on social media. Her AGT cohosts say as soon as the show would go to break she whipped out the phone to go live on IG.
So when I heard she did a photo shoot with her freshly 18 year old daughter for lingerie brand Intimissimi, I knew it would be cringe.
Daughter Leni, who is the daughter of Heidi and Italian businessman Flavio Briatore, can be seen romping around playfully with her mother in a bra and panties. But some (myself included) think it's just a bit too playful for mother and daughter.
What do you think? Is this just a fun frolic between mother and daughter or just to much for public consumption?

It's something BTS fans have been fearing for a while now. The boy band members are going to fulfill their duties of mandatory service in the South Korean army.
Under South Korean law, all able-bodied men are required to serve between 18 and 21 months in the military before their 30th birthday.
"BIG HIT MUSIC is proud to announce today that the members of BTS are currently moving forward with plans to fulfill their military service," said a statement posted on the band's social media pages.
The guys had just performed a free show in Busan to support South Korea's bid for the 2030 World Expo when the announcement was made.
"After the phenomenal concert to support Busan's bid for the World Expo 2030, and as each individual embarks on solo endeavors, it's the perfect time and the members of BTS are honored to serve," added the BTS release.
According to the release the oldest member of the band, Jin, will be the first to serve in October, shortly before he turns 30 in December.
"He will then follow the enlistment procedure of the Korean government," it continued.
"Other members of the group plan to carry out their military service based on their own individual plans," added the release. "Both the company and the members of BTS are looking forward to reconvening as a group again around 2025 following their service commitment."

Between you and me, I'm not much of a sports girl. But I will always tune in to see little babies be cute.
That's why I had to share this Met's players moment that the MLB Conference this weekend.
Francisco Lindor's 21 month old daughter Kalina was front and center with dad while he answered questions from the press. That's when she spotted the Met's manager, Buck Showalter, in the back of the room.
"Papa, Buck!" she said to her dad as she pointed off-camera.
"Yeah, Buck left," he replied to his little girl, before telling reporters, "She loves Buck."

Whoopi Goldberg was and will be the star of the Sister Act franchise, so I have to think her opinion carries some weight in the decision process for casting the belove film's 3rd installment.
Speaking tonight on Comedy Central’s Hell of A Week with host Charlamagne Tha God, Goldberg listed Lizzo, Keke Palmer, and Nikki Minaj as among those she’d like to bring to the third edition of the film comedy.
“I want everybody,” she said when asked about casting. “I want as many people who want to have some fun, because I really, desperately need to have some fun.”
The original Sister Act did more than 231 million worldwide at the box office, with its sequel, Sister Act 2: Back in the Habit at 125 million worldwide.
Sister Act 3 will debut on Disney

Mindy Kaling is a tv star, a movie star, and a celebrated author. And just five years ago she bought this swanky condo in New York City and reportedly renovated the entire thing.
Now she's listing the pad for $2,750,000. The place is mostly white and I frankly can't see where a reno budget went, but it's 1,116 square feet and in Manhattan that's a big place.
One Kenmare Square is one of downtowns most coveted buildings. In addition to being near NYC's best shopping and restaurants, the building also offers a host of white glove services and amenities, including a 24 hour doorman, and a fully-equipped fitness center.

Elon Musk says he has spoken to Kanye West and expressed his concerns about the rapper's recent anti-Semitic tweet.
Musk is in the middle of a supposed takeover of Twitter so naturally that's where he went to make his statements.
"Talked to ye today & expressed my concerns about his recent tweet, which I think he took to heart," Musk wrote on Twitter.
West was locked out of his Twitter account on Saturday after he tweeted: 'I'm a bit sleepy tonight but when I wake up I'm going death con 3 On JEWISH PEOPLE The funny thing is I actually can't be Anti Semitic because black people are actually Jew also You guys have toyed with me and tried to black ball anyone whoever opposes your agenda.'

I want to apologize for being so direct in my headline. I hope it didn't trigger anyone. I just didn't want to sugarcoat anything. You see Danny Masterson, known best for his role of Steven Hyde on "That 70's Show" is currently on trial for rape. And it should be named as such.
Masterson is also a Scientologist and many believe that could help or hurt him, depending on your belief of how powerful the church is.
But at a pre-trial hearing last week, Judge Charlaine Olmedo laid down a basic ground rule. “This is not going to become a trial on Scientology,” she said.
Masterson and all three of his victims are Scientologists and at a preliminary hearing in May 2021, all three said they feared violating the church’s rules and being cut off from their faith community.
“If you have a legal situation, you may not handle it externally from the church,” testified one of the accusers, who is referenced as N. Trout in the proceedings. “You’ll be excommunicated.”
So there are many layers to this trial, not least of which are three accusations of rape. We'll follow closely to see what happens next.
