LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA - APRIL 13: Host James Corden speaks onstage during the 10th Breakthrough Prize Ceremony at the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences on April 13, 2024 in Los Angeles, California. (Photo by Lester Cohen/Getty Images for Breakthrough Prize) James Corden has revealed he has stopped taking the popular weight loss drug Ozempic despite struggling for years with binge eating. The Gavin and Stacey star, 46, who has been an ambassador for Weight Watchers and has previously admitted to being bullied over his weight, has revealed he used to eat jumbo chocolate bars in his car, before turning to Ozempic to help him in his battle to lose weight.

But he’s already given it up, saying: “I tried it for a bit and then what I realised was I was like, ‘Oh no, nothing about my eating has anything to do with being hungry. All it does is make you feel not hungry. But I am very rarely eating [just because I’m hungry].
