James Corden and Patrick Stewart clash at Awards

Comedian James Corden and Sir Patrick Stewart become embroiled in a bizarre on-stage spat at Tuesday’s Glamour Awards.

Sir Patrick started by criticising Corden, hosting the event, for standing with his hands in his pockets. Corden responded: “You could see my belly. I can see you dying right now.”

The pair continued to trade insults, and after Sir Patrick presented the film actress of the year prize to Avatar star Zoe Saldana, she said to Corden: “I like your belly but I’d like to see Sir Patrick Stewart dying on stage any day.”

Several stars commented on the verbal tussle.

Nowhere Boy actor Aaron Johnson said: “I love your belly. That was intense. I didn’t know where to look.” and singer Duffy told the crowd she thought Corden was doing a “wonderful job” and called him “highly entertaining”.

While we love Sir Patrick’s work in sci-fi, he was being a bit of a knob and James Corden definitely came out on top.
