Corden on Conan on Corden

Even though he has his own show to do, James Corden did double duty last night to sit down with Conan and talk about his first night on the job. Conan asked what it felt like, the first moment walking through the curtain. Corden talked about spending the last three months going from a team of three, to a full staff. The entire time he thought of the show as something the whole team was in together. Until Monday night.

“I found myself behind the curtain, with all of these people who I thought were in it with me, going ‘hey good luck man.’ And you look and they’re gone and you’re just on your own and all you can see is this spotlight, from the back of the room on the curtain, just this circle. And you just go, uhhh this is going to open in a minute, and I’m going to have to go out there, and look remotely like I know anything about anything. And then its just a quest to not throw up on your own clothes before that happens.”
