Late-Night Shows Win Back Their Fifth Emmy Nom Slot After Showrunner Campaign

The Sun said the late night host and his wife, Julia, were riding rented bikes in central London when a man cut in front of James, sending him "flying." James, the report said, narrowly missed morning traffic while dodging the unaware rider. "Corden was fuming," a onlooker said. "This young cyclist just darted across the road and sent him flying. It must have really taken him by surprise."Although he was forced to dump his bike onto busy Regent Street at 10 a.m., James thankfully avoided injury. "He had no cuts or bruises but it must have hurt," the source said, adding that the fellow cyclist merely said "sorry." On July 18, The Sun published video purportedly taken just moments after the crash.

James Corden was left absolutely furious over a reported bust-up with another cyclist in London after he was thrown from his bike.
