James Corden Addresses the Carpool Karaoke Controversy, Claims He Really Does Drive During Most Segments!

James Corden is defending himself after the major Internet controversy over Carpool Karaoke!

If you missed it, a video went viral last week showing James and Justin Bieber doing Carpool Karaoke together, but James wasn’t driving. The car was actually being pulled by a truck, and fans felt betrayed!

“I want to get ahead of everything and address those rumors and assure you, my audience, that these accusations are not true. I really hate that I’m about to say this, but fake news, okay?” James said.

“I know this looks bad. But I just want to say right now that I always drive the car, unless we’re doing something where we think it might not be safe. You know, like a dance routine or a costume change or if I’m drunk, right?” James said. “I’m just shocked I’ve done something that upset people more than Cats.”

He continued, “I swear to you. 95 per cent of the time I really am endangering the lives of the world’s biggest pop stars.”

James then claimed he has only not driven while filming with Justin, Meghan Trainor, Cardi B, Chance the Rapper, and Migos.
