CHAT show host James Corden has confirmed that he is ‘truly sorry’ about his personality.

Following criticism for jokes about Harvey Weinstein at a charity gala, Corden said he never intended his personality to cause offence and wants absolutely everyone to like him.

He added: “In hindsight, I should have given more careful consideration to how I generally interact with the rest of humanity. My personality, although I thought it was really very good, just wasn’t appropriate.

“I never stopped to think that some people, indeed quite a few people, might find me insufferably smug or nauseatingly ingratiating.

“Perhaps it’s because I’ve been living in America where they quite like that sort of thing. I’m going to seek help with a professional personality consultant.”

Corden promised to have a full rethink of himself, and is reconsidering forthcoming roles as a patronising wombat in a bank advert and a chirpy paperclip called Bendy Bert in an animated film about office stationery.
