Hosting the Oscars bash would be James Corden’s Academy reward

HE HAS already hosted the Brits, Grammys and Tonys, but now James Corden says he’s going after the big one — the Oscars.

The British host of US TV’s The Late Late Show said he would leap at the chance to host the world’s biggest showbiz event.

‘I would be honoured to be asked,’ James, 38, told Guilty Pleasures.

‘We’ll see… I don’t imagine it is something that I will have to think about if I am asked. It is the biggest film awards show in the world and you would have to go some to beat what Jimmy Kimmel did this year, he was outrageously good.

‘If they ever call, I will not be saying no.’

After becoming a global sensation and friend to the stars with his Carpool Karaoke segment, James says the jitters can’t trip him up now. ‘I do not really get nerves that much these days,’ he admitted. ‘I wish I did. I love nerves.’
