Restauranteur Keith McNally took to Instagram to criticize James Corden’s final “Carpool Karaoke” episode, calling out Adele’s appearance in the process. The Balthazar owner said Adele’s makeup was “hideously overdone” and fingernails were “so long she resembled a particularly scary Cruella de Vil.” He also called her tears “complete, f–king SCHLOCK.”
McNally credited both the Grammy Award-winning songstress, 34, and Corden, 44, for being “brilliant performers” but blasted them for being “profoundly inauthentic.” He said it was the “biggest pile of HORSE S–T” he had seen in 40 years.
McNally’s criticisms of Corden have been publicly documented since the “Cats” actor mistreated McNally’s restaurant staff. Corden eventually “apologized profusely” to McNally and his staff after tremendous backlash.
