Lily Allen has savagely claimed James Corden was a ‘beg friend’ after he accused her of leading him on when she ‘definitely wasn’t’.
The Smile singer said she met the Gavin and Stacey actor on her chat show in 2008, where he was ‘very flirtatious’ with her.
CORDEN MISREAD THE SIGN
The 39-year-old said they hung out for a ‘hazy’ short period of time afterwards, but Corden misread the signs and wrote in his book that she led him on.
On her podcast, Miss Me?, Allen said: ‘Yeah, James Corden was a bit of a beg friend for me.
‘James Corden came on my chat show and was like very flirtatious with me and we sort of made friends and I introduced him to a group of my friends.
‘And I don’t really remember it because that whole period of time was a bit hazy.’
WHO IS A BEG FRIEND?
A ‘beg friend’ is described as a person who ‘begs’ for your attention in the hope of forming a friendship.
The mother of two continued: ‘I believe that he wrote about it in his book that, you know, that I was like leading him on or something – which I definitely wasn’t.
‘I think in his mind, maybe it went on a bit longer.

‘But yeah, I’d say if I ever had a famous beggy friend, it was James Corden back in the day.’
Corden, now 45, has recently moved back to the UK after presenting The Late Late Show in America for several years.
Allen added: ‘He’s not begging me anymore. I’m not begging him either. I can’t do anything for him now, he’s good.’
