ONCE AGAIN, I HAVE FOUND MYSELF AT THE HEART OF CONTROVERSY.

AND I JUST WANTED TO ADDRESS MY VIEWERS DIRECTLY SO THAT YOU CAN

HEAR MY SIDE OF THE STORY BEFORE INEVITABLY THE MEDIA BLOWS IT

WAY OUT OF PROPORTION.

OKAY?

LAST WEEK WE DID OUR CLASSIC SEGMENT “CELEBRITY INSTAGRAM,” A

PILLAR OF "THE LATE LATE SHOW"-- NAY, A PILLAR OF THE NETWORK--

OKAY?

IT'S A CLASSIC THAT I'M SURE YOU'RE ALL TALKING ABOUT IT LAST

WEEK IN WHICH WE SHOW PHOTOS FROM CELEBRITY'S INSTAGRAMS.

WE THEN EXPAND THE FOE TOE TO -- TO SEE WHAT ELSE IS GOING ON.

IT'S HILARIOUS.

I MEAN, I'M LAUGHING JUST THINKING ABOUT IT.

LAST WEEK, WE HAD ONE OF SEAN MENDEZ, I WASN'T CUT BECAUSE IT

WAS TOO FUNNY.

YOU'VE SEEN IT, IT WAS COMEDY GOLD.

IT WASN'T A FUNNY ISSUE BUT UNFORTUNATELY, THERE WAS AN

ERROR IN COMMUNICATION AND THE DIGITAL DEPARTMENT WAS NOT

INFORMED OF THE EDIT AND THIS IS WHAT THEY POSTED ON YOUTUBE.“

CELEBRITY INSTAGRAM: KYLIE JENNER, SHAWN MENDES.”

WE'VE REALLY DONE IT THIS TIME.

WE HAVE COOKED OUR GOOSE.

( LAUGHTER ) AS YOU CAN IMAGINE, MANY PEOPLE

CLICKED ON THIS VIDEO ONLY TO FIND THAT- THOUGH HILARIOUS

COMEDY- THERE WAS NO SHAWN MENDES CONTENT AND THEY WERE

UNDERSTANDABLY VERY UPSET, LEAVING COMMENTS LIKE, “WAIT

WHERE THE ( BLEEP ) IS SHAWN?” ( LAUGHTER )“

I ONLY CLICKED ON THIS FOR SOME YUM YUM SHAWN MENDES CONTENT...

I'M DISAPPOINTED!”“ YOU SAID SHAWN MENDES-- I'M

HERE.

AND YOU LET ME DOWN.”“ DISLIKING BECAUSE HE LIED TO ME

ABOUT SHAWN.”“ LITERALLY I WATCHED IT ALL TO

FINALLY SEE SHAWN'S AND THEN NOTHING.

AM I JOKE TO YOU?” AND THIS ONE, “WOMEN ARE LIKE

TEA BAGS, THEY DON'T KNOW HOW STRONG THEY ARE UNTIL THEY GET

INTO HOT WATER.” ( LAUGHTER )

>> Reggie: WHAT?

>> James: I DON'T KNOW WHAT THAT LAST ONE HAD TO DO WITH THE

VIDEO, BUT I THOUGHT IT WAS WISE.

SO, THANK YOU, YOUTUBE USER MONKY DOLLQUEEN.

NOW...

WE AT "THE LATE LATE SHOW" ARE OF COURSE HORRIFIED, EMBARRASSED

AND ASHAMED.

OKAY?

NOTHING TO DO WITH THIS.

ADAM ABRAMSON IS THE HEAD, NAY THE BOSS OF THE DIGITAL TEAM,

WHAT WENT ON, E-BLOKE?

>> I GOT EXCITED, I WAS TRYING TO SELL THE SIZZLE AS I ALWAYS

DO AND -- >> James: I'M SORRY, I CANNOT

HELP BUT THINK, ADAM IS USING THE CORONAVIRUS TO NOT COME INTO

WORK, AND HE'S SENT IN A 17-YEAR-OLD BECAUSE EVERY DAY

IT'S HAT, TWO MASKS, HE'S ALSO HALF THE SIZE THAT HE WAS WHEN

HE LEFT IN MARCH.

I DON'T BELIEVE THIS IS EVEN ADAM.

I THINK ADAM IS IN THE BAHAMAS AND THIS IS THE THING THAT'S

MADE IT COME UNSTUCK.

>> SO YEAH, EVERY NIGHT WE TRY TO SELL THE SIZZLE AND SEAN IS

THE SIZZLE AND LIKE YOU SAID -- >> James: I'M THE SIZZLE!

AND I APPRECIATE YOU ARE TRYING TO SELL THE SIZZLE.

ADAM'S HAD A QUITE TOUGH CAN QUARANTINE.

YOU'RE TRYING TO SELL THE SIZZLE I WON'T WATCH THE EDITED CLIP.

DO YOU EVER WATCH DID VIDEOS WHEN YOU PUT THEM UP OR DO YOU

GO WHAT SHALL WE CALL THIS?

>> DO I WATCH NAP.

>> James: TYLER WHAT SHOULD WE CALL THIS?

I DON'T KNOW, WHAT GETS VIEWS.

GENTLEMAN IMS HIT BY A CAR.

BUT IT'S EMOJI NEWS, DOESN'T MATTER, SELL THE SIZZLE, BRO.

>> THEAT PRETTY MUCH IT, YOU PRETTY MUCH HIT IT.

I JUST -- SO YES, WE HAVE A STRONG QC PROCESS IN PLACE.

>> QUALITY CHECK.

>> James: YOU'VE GOT A STRONG QC WHEN YOU'RE TRYING THE STS?

>> IT WAS I WAS TRYING TO THE MAKE DINNER AND SHAWN WILL BE

IN.

YEAH THERE WAS TOO MUCH LAUGHS OFF THE BALK OF IT.

-- BACK OF IT AND IF WE PUT IT UP IT WOULD BE

A MINUTE OF PEOPLE LAUGHING.

WE'RE GOING TO SHOW YOU THE SHAWN MENDEZ THAT WAS CUT.

THIS NEXT ONE IS SHAWN MENDES, CAMILLA CABELLO.

LOOK WHERE SHE GOT IT?

>> ARE THERE MORE, PLEASE?

>> James: THAT ACTUALLY MADE ME QUITE DEPRESSED!

I MEAN, THE GREATEST SALESMAN IN THE WORLD COULD NOT SELL THAT

SIZZLE.

(LAUGHTER) >> James: CLEARLY IT WAS CUT

FOR TIME.

BECAUSE IT WAS SO SMART AND GOOD AND FUNNY.

BUT WE REALIZE HOW EGREGIOUS OUR CRIME WAS.

IT WAS.

IT WAS EGREGIOUS AND I DON'T USE THAT WORD LIGHT, YOU KNOW, IT

WAS EGREGIOUS.

NOT ONLY DID WE DEPRIVE POWER AUDIENCE OF SHAWN MENDES

CONTENT, WE ALSO DEPRIVED THEM OF A GOOD LAUGH.

AND WE'D LIKE TO GO A STEP WE RESPECT YOU WE LOVE YOU AND

WE LIKE TO GIVE YOU THIS AS A PEACE OFFERING WHICH IS A FULL

MINUTE OF PURE UNCUT SHAWN MENDES CONTENT.

THAT'S RIGHT, IT'S AN ENTIRE MINUTE FROM OUR SHOW THAT IS

SOAKED IN SHAWN.

IT'S SOPPING WITH SHAWN.

IT IS SOPPING WITH SHAWN.

MIRED IN MENDES.

PLEASE ENJOY.
