May I Have Your Attention Please?

De: James Corden

Narrado por: James Corden

As far back as he can remember James Corden has only ever wanted to be in one place: in front of you, doing something to make you laugh, cry, shout, or giggle uncontrollably. At the age of 4, he grandstanded throughout his baby sister’s christening, standing on a chair in front of the whole congregation, pulling faces and cracking everyone up. Despite himself, the vicar was impressed. And from then on he couldn’t get enough of the spotlight, even when it always seemed to avoid him. Throughout his teens, he and his Dad trudged up and down towards London, getting closer and closer to landing a gig, only to be told ‘No’ at the last stage. But he never gave up and soon found his whole life turned upside down and inside out by his experience as one Alan Bennett’s History Boys. From that moment forth, he’s never looked back.

May I Have Your Attention Please? is the warm, cheeky, surprisingly honest and hilarious story of one of our most popular comedy talents. From his antics as one of the founding players of his high-school’s first ever rugby team to gaining recognition in the West End, to nationwide fame as the loveably loud Smithy in the award-winning Gavin and Stacey, this is a tenderly told story of what it’s like to try, try and try again and - happily - get there in the end.

"A funny, interesting & genuine account’ 5 stars." (Daily Express)

Deeply moving at times

I wondered about reading an autobiography of someone so young but surprised myself by quite enjoying it in the end.

Honest, funny and well written

If you are a fan of Carpool Karaoke then you already know James is original and funny. This books takes you on a journey of how he became that funny guy as well as a Broadway actor. So much more to his talents then singing.

Clever and enjoyable

This was a clever and enjoyable read! A book very well written. The beginning and the end tied together beautifully. Now, I will be on the lookout for another one of James’ books as I’m looking to be more updated from 2011.

I need more James Corden

I was a huge fan of his American talk show . miss him dearly....this was charming, insightful, witty...one of the best bios I have read..

You've got it!!!

Holy crap! My favorite actor/comedian/host!!! You're incredible James and I can't wait to hear another book about the last few years. Wish there was a bit more about your work with Matt Smith.... But all together amazing!!

I loved it!! James Corden is a great storyteller!!

This is a great listen! I got lost on some of the sport references, and you may have to look up some of the names he mentions if you are not familiar with British entertainment, but I thought is was wonderful! :)

Interesting if you're into James

A lot of thanking people and congratulating himself. Sometimes apologizing for his past actions. Probably would be better if you are a fan or British.

James is the real deal!

this book is so insightful and inspiring to anyone who wants to make it in the industry. Loved his childhood stories. I have the book but listening to his voice makes it come alive. Hope he writes another book!

A great tale of growing up

James Corden's journey from self-conscious teenager to arrogant performer to appreciative star is an intriguing journey, made even better by him reading the book.

very interesting!

James cordon is a great narrator. the story is interesting and I gained insight into his life. highly recommend
