Spice Girl legend Mel B doesn’t regret labelling comedian James Corden as the “biggest d***head celebrity” she had ever encountered in the showbiz industry.
Appearing on air with comedian Joe Lycett to take part in a Spice Girls quiz, Mel struggled to get most of the questions right, with the exception of one which she knew right away.
When asked which Spice Girl described James Corden as the ‘biggest d***head celebrity’, Mel immediately shot her arm in the air and declared proudly: “Me!”

The moment came in December 2022, when Mel B was Channel 4’s The Big Narstie Show and chatting to Mo Gilligan about people who she had met in the industry.

When asked who was the biggest “d***head celebrity” she’d ever met while working in showbiz, Mel said: “So, there’s a few, Geri Halliwell, Jessie J and me!”
A shocked Mo replied: “But Geri, she’s your bandmate?” To which Mel replied: “I know, I love her to bits but she’s really f*cking annoying.”
Comedian Big Narstie then asked: “You said James Corden, what did he do?” as he probed on the former Gavin and Stacey star and later US TV host.

Mel responded: “I think you always have to be nice to the people that you work with whether it be production, camera guys, sound, lighting – we all work for the same thing. ‘So, you should always be nice and he hasn’t been very nice.”
Her comments came after James came under fire from New York’s Balthazar restaurant owner Keith McNally for being “nasty” to his staff.

In an open letter, McNally wrote: “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.”
James later addressed the incident and said it was “never his intention to upset staff” and admitted that he had been “ungracious,” before later claiming he didn’t think he did anything wrong.
