James Corden Responds to Bill Maher's Fat Shaming Take
After seeing a segment on "Real Time with Bill Maher" addressing obesity rates in the United States, in which Bill's thesis is that fat shaming needs to make a comeback, James Corden felt compelled to respond with a different perspective. Simply put, fat shaming hasn't gone anywhere and is perhaps the worst approach to a complex issue for people across the globe.

“I’ve had good days.... and bad months.” Brilliant man
That is such a stingily accurate observation....MAN do I know that feeling.
Oh ffs.. Come on.. That is very far from brilliance... Or... You're let's say very easily entertained 🙄🙄🙄
lynno from Cork it's not really about brilliance, is it? He did a very good job explaining the problem, transmitting the emotions attached to it, and still being funny and somehow managing being kind to Mahers. Well... "Believe me, I can see a dick." 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
ironically both Bill and James are partially right and wrong at same time, fat people are two types: those who eat excessively, have lazy lifestyle despite being capable of changing it, the part Bill shamed, and those who genetically have low metabolism, bad genes, and who would do whatever they could but do not lose weight because their bodies arent programmed to be at right BMI, the part James defends, it is complicated situation
Daughter of Jerusalem nah, just a fat man eating incorrectly
"Good days, and bad months" this hit so hard and so true
Same.

@@mikkelhoejen You do not need to shame people for being fat. Did you not hear James? Mostof us live with the goddamn shame everyday and we try to deal with it. But with someone else being an asshole about it, you can set a person back. Not everyone responds well to bullying. So just mind your business. We'll ask for help if we need it.
Being healthy is superior tho so he's not wrong.
"I've had good days, and bad months" Someone actually put my life into words
Get some self control
@@romanmarshall602 over my life? Honey, no one has control of that. Maybe take heed your own advice and have self control of your misguided comments, have a nice night ✌️
Even if everything in your life was stolen from you and you were destitute and on the street (which god forbid never happens) and all your agency was gone you would still be able to control what goes into your mouth. I think this is why people like Maher and myself have this attitude, because it’s so plainly and undeniably within the realms of self control so all words to the contrary are simply excuses. I wish you the best
Dude, my comment was a generalized joke to make light of the subject and direct it towards the topic of life itself. It's cool, some self-righteous, all-knowing prick always has to swing by and ruin it for everyone. If this didn't help you get that fat steamy pile of Bill Maher shit off your chest, I hope you find the argument or debate you were hoping for on someone else's thread. Cheers! 🖕
@@romanmarshall602 dude, chill the f out, you take jokes too seriously
Shame is harmful, but on the other end of the spectrum is complacency. We've become too complacent with obesity and it's skyrocketed. Over 70% of Americans today are overweight or obese. Shaming people is not the answer, but some things need to change because millions of people are dying every year.
@@phillipthach7924 No. The fact that you give a shit proves it. Shaming is better than verbal abuse or sweet lies. I gotta be surrounded by alcoholic drug abusers with multiple kids because no one gave enough of a shit to say something.
It’s not even a matter of shaming, it’s a matter of corporations, stores like Target, and Hollywood acting as if being fat is just as beautiful and normal as being thin, which is absurd. It’s one thing to say harassment is bad, but it’s another to try to normalize unhealthy lifestyles which is what we’re seeing. “If shit’s wrong with me, it’s society’s fault” is the ridiculous attitude.
I'm fat but people like bill give me motivation to lose weight
Me too
Me too
Me too
Please lose weight you will look better, feel better, attract more partners with your confidence and most important you will live longer
Fill your stomach with whole foods. You will lose weight. Eat till your heart’s content when eating whole single ingredient foods and you will shed it. I did it and you can too. Good luck!
"If making fun of fat people made them lose weight there'd be no fat kids in schools and I'd have a six pack by now" Wise words!
This should be titled lazy, rich, sycophant responds to Bill Maher. How about joining his show or inviting him? Or better yet, make some changes in your life?
@@ngc6603 Nah thanls, we're perfectly healthy. Now why don't you go and kiss Bill's ass
Laura Grimmer it worked with me
Jimmy kimmel slimmed down
And if incessant WHINING and MAN-SHAMING and WHITE-SHAMING and BULLY-SHAMING and SPEECH-POLICING from the politically-correct Left actually worked, we'd all be living in an Orwellian "Utopia" (or Dystopia, depending on what side of logic and common sense you stand) with nary a complaint. But whining Leftard snowflakes will ALWAYS find something to complain about and be "offended" by. I stand with Bill on this one. And y'all who are "offended" or have "hurt feewings" can fuck off back to your safe space and cry me a river of salty "oppression" tears.
James is pulling the “I’m not angry just disappointed” card. Bloody brilliant
Can't beat the British at their wit or ability to tell you to sod off in a dignified manner.
James is pulling the "I'm obese and lazy and have no desire to do anything about it so let's blame anyone who thinks I should be slightly more proactive and loving a healthier lifestyle" card
JOEL CHAPMAN Ignorance, unwarranted condescension, and a paucity of empathy. Your Dunning-Kruger is showing, dude.
@@didderjade I was going to tell Joel Chapman that he was a stupid bigot but I like your answer better
@@joelchapman8622 Well I agree with diddgerjade. But also you are a stupid bigot.
Bill was 100% accurate. You don't have to be cruel re: extra weight but it's bizarre that people have become so sensitive to basic facts. I spent years struggling with my weight but I never tried to convince myself that I was healthy. We shouldn't protect someone's feelings at the expense of their physical health.
Bill has no double standards. He wants to push these fake issues "Go get mad at fat people now!", but when you talk about real issues like the Israel-Palestine conflict, he sure doesn't want anybody to bring up food insecurity in Gaza or Israeli war crimes. His fake opinions about fake issues don't hold up when you look at the counterparts of those arguments in issues he ACTUALLY cares about. Here, he is "Just doing comedy". Trust me, he couldn't care less if his neighbor is overweight or not. He already says he flies private, so it's not the flight seating either. Think about it, what is he gonna say about Gaza? That they are on a healthy embargo diet? Moreover, not once on his show has he ever taken a stance that criticizes any war crimes. Instead he takes shots at Catholicism and Islam. Not once has he taken a shot at Judaism or the Right-wing governments in Israel. Yet he lies to his viewers and tells them he is a leftist in America. He is not, he just depends on that audience to get good ratings. He says let's criticize fat people again! Imagine if somebody else said "Let's bring back racism and antisemitism again". Not only did they never go away, but it is nothing more than a just an asshole that like to hear himself talk, and a buncha fanboys saying he is right about everything. Getting into the weeds is irrelevant since it is a red-herring issue. He is literally just doing his job as a comedian. That is it, pretending like this is some credible political commentary is crazy.
Bill Maher’s point was that we should not say that being fat is ok. USA has a serious problem with junk food and overeating....it’s extremely urgent to address this.
That may have been one of his points, but to imply that was his main point makes him sound nicer than he was. He also clearly said that fat shaming is a useful tool for encouraging weight loss. He is wrong.
No, the problem is with a diet and fitness industrial complex that makes far too much profit out of human misery and pushes an agenda of stigmatisation of people's bodies so they can keep on making money.
They missed the point 😂
@@alexandrabarnes4511 there are a lot of reasons why its harder to stay at a healthy weight in America, but blaming the problem entirely on external forces perpetuates the problem too. The vast majority of obese people have the ability to lose weight. If they genuinely set out to lose weight, they would. Take some responsibility for your own actions
@@noahdiluca9857 I recommend reading some weight science. There is literally *no* scientific evidence that long term (more than 5 years) weight loss is possible for the majority of people (95-97%). Most people who lose any weight regain that weight within 5 years and many end up larger than before. This leads to yo-yo dieting (aka weight cycling) which research shows is an independent risk factor for all those health issues correlated with* bigger bodies (*correlation is not causation). Another independent risk factor for these issues is...guess what? Weight stigma! Including fat shaming which is what Bill Maher was promoting. So he is recommending a behaviour which *increases* people's risk of health problems, as indeed are you, when you tell people to "take some responsibility" and lose weight.
“I’ve had good days and bad months...” if that isn’t the truth.
learn a bit of discipline? i drink too much but in the last year i've slowly been getting my drinking into reasonable limits. I'm not there yet but I'm a lot better. Can't is a word for people without will or discipline. EXCEPT.... in those FEW cases where is actually is genetic or endocrine or whatever.
That’s why it’s “good days and bad months...” Discipline is a habitual thing, but life does happen and wrenches get thrown in. I’m the same way- not with drinking but with weight. Yeah, I’m down 40 pounds, but I still have 40 to go. Some weeks, you’re kicking ass. Some weeks, you have 60 hours to work and you set yourself up for failure. The problem with food is that unlike drinking, you can’t quit completely and I think that is a problem especially when it comes to portion control. I get what you’re saying and the comparison you’re making, but everyone is different in a different bracket.
@@HxcJinx well goodness! if you're down 40 pounds then there is no reason for you to be unhappy with yourself. if you really want that extra 40 I'm sure you'll get it. If you're working on yourself in any respect, the only good measure is against yourself yesterday.
Kyle Barton to be fair, I’m a pretty big fan of me from where I was, but I definitely strive to be healthier. That being said, there are times where I honestly eat an entire box of cereal and days where I skip the gym. The discipline is coming along slowly, but it’s way better than when I would eat 5k calories in a day. I just mean, you know everyone has their own timeline.
@@HxcJinx there are days when i finish 3/4 of a half gallon of vodka. but they arent as frequent. progress is progress. the thrust of my postings on this is that being unhealthy should not be something that we all just say is ok and brave and beautiful. jaundiced alcoholics, emaciated crack heads, sore covered meth heads and obesity. its just not something that we should not strongly discourage, especially toward those that we care about personally.
Bill Maher seems like the kind of guy who would tell someone on their period to "just hold it."
Sounds about right smh😒 how dear him😒😒
Proving points...
I have never cared for Bill Maher or his stupid show but ever since I saw the interview with Marianne Williamson, I loathe him, and now coming out with this... is just...alright that's it.
"stick a bandaid on it, problem solved"
He does😂 We have a bucket and tissues it’s ight
I'm fat.....and I'm with Bill
For those who are not aware of it, James Corden is now appearing in ads for Weight Watchers
and did not lose anything
@@talks2squirrels953 Yep
This is hilarious. The guy is a gigantic hypocrite
James only lost weight after a bowel movement.
And James was so polite and made it so clear that he understood Bill’s intention, when he had every right not to do that and simply respond to him
Did y'all even watch the piece bill Maher did ? I had not but did after watching this... Yea go watch that before you clap for this guy
@captain toby shandy I think you just mansplained her mate
James Corden only tried making Maher look bad even though that's not what Maher did... James Corden is an asshole who is overly sensitive about his weight even though he doesn't workout. Can't stand how fake and narcissistic James Corden is
Well if you are going to be wrong you should at least be polite about it...So James did the right thing being polite. This whole video is just ridiculous. How science works, since James decided to use that phrase incorrectly several times, is simple. You eat fewer calories than your body burns and you lose weight. You eat more calories than your body burns you gain weight. He made it seem like there is a fat gene and fat asses can't help it. EVERY SINGLE FAT PERSON CAN FIX THEIR PROBLEM BY EATING LESS THAN THEY DO.....
That's what happens when you don't let insults get in your head and you give a cold thoughtful response that feels like a white glove slap.
I love how he was serious and funny in the same tone.
unlike Bill Maher :)
That's British humour mate
I don't know if I could be as calm as he is in his delivery. I would probably end up sounding as intensely as Malcolm X or something. And I'm not even overweight. He kills it with comedy, like the great ones.
Very so, he reminds me of another talk show host.
rafal KB Yes really cool 👍🇨🇭🎧🎶
Bill is completely right
Indeed, and this Cordon person really cherry picked bits of what Bill Maher said to make it sound worse. Anyone on here who thinks Cordon's right and Bill Maher's being a bully should watch what Maher said in its entirety.

Best line: "We don't all have a sense of superiority that burns 35,000 calories a day."
One of the best lines of 2019 for sure!
You don't need to burn 35000 calories per day, just burn 500 calories per day. Is not hard you just too lazy
@Timothy Hagstrom or maybe she just appreciates sparkling wit.
I'm fat and it's a stupid line. Being fat is wildly unhealthy and most fat people can lose it by diet and exercise. Only a rare amount have a legit disease that stops them
David Hagensten ever try speed
People need to take responsibility for their health. If you are fat and develop diabetes, heart problems etc, it was on you to lose weight in the first place. Your feelings won't protect you from diabetes and heart disease.
The fear of shame or being shamed stops me from doing stupid ass shit

Kind of hard to manage a constant schedule of healthy eats and exercise (in addition to stress from school/college/work/job-seeking) on top of having constant pressure, insults and smugness from people who don't care enough about anyone to even know what depression is. Overweight people don't need stress and pressure, they need encouragement and support. Not the same thing!
“We don’t all have a sense of superiority that burns 35,000 calories a day.” IM DEAD

Fat shaming worked for me as a teenager, it really motivated me. People vary
that does not change the fact that a lot of overweight people are getting fat shamed
@@cedrickjoshuamanalo9033 yes, but this person was saying that the so called fatshaming helped in this case. So even if it is happening it doesnt need to be a bad thing. I must say i totaly agree, the shame i had for being fat was the factor that drove me to do exercise and eat at least reasonable.
@@DoktorCocktor If Fat shaming pushed you and motivated you to become better, then you do you man but you can’t use your personal experience as an example for everyone and especially for those who are struggling at being bullied. I know you’re well aware that a lot of overweight people are getting fat shamed and it’s messing up their self-esteem and mental health. Using his logic is like saying that college is useless because dropping out of college worked for Jeff Bezos and Mark Zuckerberg lol
@@cedrickjoshuamanalo9033 I understanden your point but college doesn't kill you (or atleast doesn't make your Chance of dying bigger by a lot). And I would never compare myself to these guys, they are (in their field) at the top of all. I am just a normal person.
Worked for me too. Whenever I let myself go over the years, those childhood "lessons" brought me back to fitness. Now I'm really dedicated, and have been for last 7 years. I'm actually quite grateful for that "shaming", though I would really call it a "healthy dose of reality."
To all the commentators that agree with James, Bill wasn't shaming anyone. He just stated the truth. Americans as a whole eat far too much and get far too little exercise...which has dire effects on health. He drew a great parallel to his own bad habits. Everyone acknowledges that smoking and/or drinking alcohol negatively affects the health ...which is why people are encouraged to abstain or moderate their use of those substances. Encouraging people to adjust their eating habits is the same thing.
Yes. Maybe "shaming" is a bad choice of words. How about "fat education"?
@@potgod7314 Fewer and fewer people approve of smoking.
In USA James is in good shape
But why put a person down who is fat. You can claim health all you want but I choose to smoke. And being fat is not over eating. Put a good plate in front of me and I'll over eat. I have a high metabolism. I'm somewhat skinny. My mom eats no where near as much as I do and she's overweight. Low metabolism
Also I'd say we move arround equally
People assume that fat people don't know they're fat, WE DO! And everyday is a constant battle. Thank you James for shedding some light on this.
THANK YOU!
But some fat ppl think they are healthy and by fat imean obese ppl like Tess holidy who glorify being obese
Being at your optimal weight and healthy is extremely easy. Eat a Whole Food Plant Based diet and avoid all processed food, sugar, oil, dairy and meat. Its the only nutritional program to reverse or prevent obesity, diabetes, heart disease and cancer. Look up Dr. Greger, Dr. Lim, Dr. Cadwell Esseltyn and read the China Study. You will be amazed at how easy it is.

I thought bill was right to be honest
They both have a point, but their delivery isn't ideal. Bill Maher is right about how missguided the body positivity movement is and he's correct in saying that being overweight is unhealthy and that as much must be said unequivocally. James Corden however is correct in saying that fat shaming (if by fat shaming we mean legitimate bullying and not just saying that being overweight is bad) is often counter productive if the goal is to make people more healthy. Most of the times people aren't overweight simply because they're foodies or lazy, but because unhealthy habits are their way to cope with stress, depression or PTSD. Yes, ultimately they will need to learn more healthy ways to deal with these issues, but until then shaming them plays into the root cause of unhealthy habits. If a friend or family member has weight problems, a better way to help is to lead by example (if they are on a diet, you'd help just by refraining from fast food or beer when you're around them) and by positive encouragement for example by inviting them to play badminton or something.
Hello, Yes, let's call a cat a cat. Humor and denying don't avoid amputation. I am sad for all the people cheering at James humorous comments. Americans should sue the majors of the food industry and stop denying the sad reality. Sorry.
He was
I highly agree with you
Preach, I see people lying to themselves all the time about this stuff
So is this retort the basis for ‘fat-splaining’ aka trying to rationalise obesity as a culturally acceptable way of life? I don’t get how somebody could rationally argue such a point?
Fat-splaining!! 🤣🤣
You'd have to be James Corden to do that.
his audience is mentally underdeveloped, cut them some slack
The basis of this segment is empathy. Life is uncomfortable enough for overweight people without having to be bullied. When people talk about ending fat shaming they’re not suggesting that obesity is healthy. All they’re saying is that overweight people shouldn’t be treated as if they have no place in society simply because they’re overweight. I think James handled this beautifully. He didn’t defend his poor habits but he did take the time to explain them so that others would understand why Bill Maher’s words were so problematic.
@@lynne709Thank you! I don’t get how this went over people’s heads. It’s as if empathy is a genuinely foreign concept to some.

After living in Asia I got used to friends pointing out when I had gained too much weight. Its a good thing, because its easy to kick the can down the road if the people that care about you are not there to remind you that its important. Its not the same thing as bullying / harassing fat people.
"Childhood obesity is directly linked to poverty" So what's the adult millionaire's excuse for being fat?
I'm pretty sure in the American context its referring to obesity related health issues leading to crippling healthcare costs. Such problems could compound across multiple generations to bring poverty. Once you are in it you are a lot more likely to stay there.

Exactly!!!! He also said something about obesity won't change until we have a better health care system and more education about nutrition. I agree with that. But the fact is he can afford the best health care and he is privileged enough to know how to read and to have access to information about nutrition. So he has no excuse other than the fact that he's weak and lazy.
He actually called fat shaming what it really is: bullying!

That was a poignantly beautiful response to a cruel monologue of Bill Maher’s. Thank you, James.
Ikr. He really did a great job, speaking in the name of so many people,myself included who struggle with overweight. His respond is so smart and so beautifully done.
Did you even watch Maher's monologue? There was nothing cruel in it. It's just that people want to not only indulge in unhealthy behavior, but also others should be forced to validate it as good.
Sean M I don’t think anywhere here James stated that fat people should be told their lifestyle is ok. The point the majority of the community makes is bullying doesn’t help the situation and can make things worse for many (eating disorders).
@@thomasnewton8223 Perhaps Corden didn't say it in as many words, but that IS the overall message of the "body positivity" movement. "I'm perfect the way I am". And there's a difference between bullying and calling out vices. I'm not suggesting anyone go around saying things like "hey fattie". But we SHOULD call it obesity for the health crisis that it is. I'm not unsympathetic to people struggling with addictions. I used to drink a liter of vodka everyday. But tough love is what breaks addictions. The "soft" approaches don't work; addicts just take it as a cue to continue their behavior. I'm not 5+ years sober because people said "hey, I don't want to judge but maybe that's not good...but I'm not judging!!!...you're perfect just the way you are so do what makes you happy". I'm 5+ years sober because my doctor told me I was going to die and my family got tough on me to clean up my act. Brutal honesty and calling out got me to put down the bottle. I believe it can get people to put down the fork.
Cruel? By pointing out we can all do better about our health? Maybe Pudgy Corden shouldnt be the one you take health advice from. I lost 300 lbs through perseverence and dedication and exercise. If this society wasnt so lazy everyone could. No one needs to be overweight
That was THE MOST: Honest, heartfelt, kind, gentle, and polite comeback I have ever heard! CORDEN ROCKS!!!
Sure but he missed to whom this massage was intended for.... The audience he was addressing was the far left.... The "your perfect in every size" crowd that believe that 120 lbs. Is just as healthy as the 900lbs bariatric.

@Mortal Kombat About how the Democrats only wanna talk about the healthy side to health. Not the unhealthy side. So. He chose a DISEASE that is really unhealthy. Obesity. And gave out facts as to why it is unhealthy to way 370 lbs and eat a burger grilled in butter every night

“We don’t all have a sense of superiority that burns 35,000 calories a day.” I’m deceased!!!
Janely Rodriguez That’s literally true in Bill Maher’s case. His ego burns up so many calories all on its own.
Youre also unoriginal.
Looks like he’s not getting that 35k anymore, he’s starting to get kinda spindly.
NIc K , wow, you’re so original, douche.
Makes you wonder why Kanye and Trump aren't just skin and bones! lol
Let me explain something... I'm an emergency medicine physician, I also have an active pituitary tumor. The pituitary tumor causes me to be overweight. Not everyone who's overweight, isn't exercising, eats to their hearts content, or has a poor diet! As for myself, that's simply untrue. I also see so many people in my work, who are affected by illness, or take needed medication which actually causes them to be moderately to significant overweight. So, let's avoid undue ignorance and forego Bill Maher's advice. Skip any shaming of another human being, for any reason, and be kind to others. You never know their struggles!
Well, sure. Nothing is 100%. How many people are overweight because of pituitary tumors? Not that many. The rate of obesity has skyrocketed in the span of one or 2 generations. It's not all genetics. Clearly, something's not right with the typical American's lifestyle.
@@mysticaltyger2009 that's actually more likely to be *because* of dieting! Research shows that dieting just doesn't work long term and I'm fact very often leads to people gaining *more* weight, especially after repeated diets. And no it's not because fat people don't have any willpower - it's because putting your body into what basically constitutes a famine situation causes it to send more and more signals to the brain to focus on food while also working harder to hold onto whatever food it gets. That's what also makes it harder and harder to lose weight by dieting, the more you do it. And all that can lead to the very health problems *correlated* with fatness. But don't forget, "correlation is not causation" and a huge amount of the research that claims health conditions like heart disease are "caused" by fatness do not even bother to control for other risk factors like socioeconomic status, yo-yo dieting or weight stigma, all factors that are known to be significant independent risk factors for those conditions. So if you're concerned about "ob*sity", try shaming the industries that profit from making people hate their bodies, not the people who are already suffering!
That’s an exception, not the rule. Dumb dumb
@@mysticaltyger2009 at least 10% of people have thyroid disorder. Add to that cortisol imbalances, insulin resistance, estrogen imbalance, and medications that cause weight gain, and you get a huge chunk of the population with medically caused weight problems.
@ FC LLC : 1) you are wrong : read the peer reviewed articles on the causes of obesity. 2) do you deny that to be obese, a person needs to eat more calories than the body daily requires (in a gradual process over time) ? 3) in no starving region on the planet, starving people are overweight 4) how do you explain that western countries population obesity exploded ? If not due to bad diet and not enough exercise (according the WHO the prime causes of obesity) 5) if due to health issues a person "stocks" caloric excesses "faster", eat less calories aka the normal required intake, regulate your caloric intake with supervision of a dietician and a medical doctor. 6) the fat acceptance movement should be relabelled the "flat-earthers of health" that are responsible for promoting life threatening lifestyles that also cause huge national debts in social security systems in many countries in the world where obesity if off the charts. 7) the body positivity movement (which should be mostly empathy towards disabled persons, due to something they are born with or happened after an accident) should be separated from the fat acceptance movement (life-threatening movement promoting eating disorders and who seek excuses for something that happened mostly in a voluntary gradual process over time and not by accident)
Bill is completely right.
This is why everyone loves James Cordon.

"Bullying makes the problem worse " James tell him....
I’d watch Bill’s video in full.
It's not bullying its an economic manoeuvre. Fat people cost the countries billions. hiding behind an illness. You can tell a smoker stop smoking it's bad for them and not to smoke here. Mention a sugar tax or suggest exercise to a fat person and its bullying. Pointing out somebody is fat, is not bullying nor fat shamimg. It's stating the obvious.
@HelpStopAnimalAbuses in your mind it goes fat and unhealthy, or vegan. Lol.
People too sensitive to hear the truth...lol..
@@Dave_ja_vu That's because smoking is a thing you do, and fat is a thing you are. I hit the roof when an ER doctor told me to "start exercising," not because I didn't want to exercise, but because I was getting twenty to thirty minutes a day and the amount that he suggested I "start" with was insultingly low. People have this idea that they can look at a fat person and know everything there is to know about their lifestyle, medical history, and personality, but fat is not a behaviour, and the relationship between behaviour and body type is a lot more complicated than fat-shamers make it out to be.
Being obese is a costly to an already strained healthcare system. These are the facts.
Shaming does work at times
"When you are encouraging people to think about what goes into their mouths, just think a little harder about what comes out of yours" Wow, that's it in a nutshell, well done James for not just striking back indiscriminately but replying with such eloquence and wit.
Bill, or his writers, did think about what he would say. They very specifically only mentioned anything that could be considered fat shaming after the mention of and in response to the fit shaming being done by fat people. So, the whole premise of James' segment is disingenuous, which is neither eloquent nor witty.
D'you think he actually wrote that? I doubt it. I don't fully agree with either party but believe the problem is with fat acceptance.
Start intermittent fasting. This is the only way. Go to Jason Fung his channel!

Empowering. I am 330 pounds and my doctor fatshames me all the time by saying I am prone to diabetes and my LDL is too high.
I am overweight, and yes, fat shaming in a form needs to come back. My sister is overweight and one of her own kids talked about her eating and drinking habits which took a lot of guts and when asked why he is saying things like that his reply was, "Because I love you and am concerned with your health." Just calling someone ugly cause your fat is one thing, but giving a 450 lb person a look for eating at an all you can eat place that need to sit one chair per cheek, or the ones that use the mobile carts at stores that are there for the OLD people. Now the infrim are walking around hanging onto carts where maybe if these overweight people would actually push a cart and walk could be a solution to their issue instead of making it worse by being even lazier. At the VERY LEAST if you say fat shaming has to go away, then so do all these fat promoting, overweight models showing, "Look how brave I am to show my fat body that most everyone is actually repulsed by, but in today woke society most will comment how good I look and adore me and it is okay to re,main this way."
Because shaming someone into changing a shame-based behaviour is the most effective procedure! Brilliant!
@@FernandoVazquez-ro1nw Shame and humiliation are important parts of personal growth.
U r probably not that fat if u think shaming works. I don't think youve experienced the consequences of being bullied for ur weight to that extent.
That's not fat shaming, that's someone that loves her telling her they care. That's the complete opposite of fat shaming. Fat shaming DOESN'T WORK
Tell that to the countless people who k!ll3d themselves because of fatshaming or wanted to
"While you're encouraging people to be careful about what goes into their mouths, just think a little bit harder about what comes out of yours." Very, very well said.

James was making fat jokes the howl time.
@@sundaibrown And did so very quickly without addressing the good points. Sounds like he has an agenda and isn't open to conversation. Which makes him dishonest and disingenuous.
Yep
I think there is always a way to be empathetic while acknowledging a problem.
@Bal Rex addiction is a real thing. With food it is no different. There’s a reason a large percentage of obese people try and fail. Again, doesn’t mean we don’t acknowledge or try to help solve the problem, but assigning shame and blame is likely to increase the negative behavior
@@NorthOfWindsor ever been to a buffet or some kind of lunch where they put out cookies and squares, and watched an obese person grab like 22 things before anyone else even got there? like they're being completely and utterly disrespectful, and if i said "someone get a harpoon" to that behaviour it would be "fat shaming"
@@jamescheddar4896 I’ve never seen that happen. I agree that would be inconsiderate, but usually that’s not what happens. Usually there is so much food out that even a large portion is not enough. You’re making up a hypothetical that never ever happens to try to act like obese people are immoral.
@@NorthOfWindsor Yeah I was kind of using hyperbole to point out the irony on your empathy comment. It's not like the fat people are looking over their shoulders making sure everyone's eaten first right, they don't care about strangers. So then to add "you need to have empathy for the sheer lack of discipline it takes to get this fat" needs a reality check. empathize with the discipline and you will be enlightened
bill maher is right
I’ve got to disagree with James here. With all due respect, I have to say Lesbian Vampire Killers was amazing.

My nephew came out of the womb with an insatiable appetite. He was literally a fat infant. My sister said he would breastfeed an inordinate amount of time. He was a chubby kid until he went away to college and started working out and lost all the weight.
"Accessible" health care is not driving obesity. There are medical conditions, but the folks on 'my 600 pound life'... didn't get that way because there was a 2 week wait for a doctors appointment.
You handled this scenario like a true gentleman. I tip my hat to you sir.
*fedora tip*
Cringe
Yes!
Mikkel Højen you should only be ashamed of what you eat not about being fat. Like if someone eats burgers everyday they should be ashamed and they should eat healthy but they shouldn’t be ashamed of their size and how they look. Their looks is their choice. Be ashamed of your actions not the outcome.
Same here. I have PCOS and I would walk 7 miles every day for almost a year and cut down on my eating and I only lost 25 pounds. It's so annoying but my surgery did go down and so did my blood pressure.

@@fabianbinder3681 I see your point, but I don't think this is selfishness as we most often see it. It's definitely something he is invested in, but I don't think his message was only about him.
I'd argue that Bill was more selfless. He knew that he would take some heat for what he said. He stood by what he believes at the cost of some scrutiny.
Sarah Walter how is it for unselfish reasons
I know. He’s great, Bill Maher.
“When you’re encouraging people to think about what goes into their mouth, just think a little harder about what comes out of yours!”....James Corden 2019
This needs to be on a tee shirt!
James is fat and it hurts him. I like him but not this video. The fat shaming was to get attention and give it structure. These days because of emotions truth is pushed back.
Toki Tajwar i truly understand your point. My point of view would be, just like for a smoker you can say smoking is bad for your lungs and can cause diseases, but you cannot say “hey you! Black tarred lungs.” Similarly you can say unhealthy food is bad for health, but shaming someone of overweight is way too much.
Like how 300,000 people die from Obesity each year.
Kelli Barnhouse totallt agree
I've watched both this and Bill's clip so I could make a reasoned, judicious decision, which is....you can make an talk show audience applaud wildly at any position.
You have to take self selection into account. I imagine the fat shamers might not go to this show
What they really need to do is end corn subsidies. No more cheap corn sugar.
I love the way James handled this; it’s very mature.
I think if he was rlly mature about it he'd lose the weight, it's his life but he'd be happier as a fitter person
Louis Morgan well acturlly no just cus you where born skinny and have a good rate of food turn over. it doesn't mean people like you can go round saying loose weight, how about you f**king try loose 40kg while eating a healthy already cus it's harder than you think. so go f**k yourself.
Louis Morgan I understand what you mean but you can’t just tell someone to lose weight and expect that to help them out. There’s a reason people do what they do. Everyone has their thing they do to cope with hardships and for some people that is eating. I’m lucky enough to not have to deal with that problem but that doesn’t mean that I don’t have problems as well.
@@bigtobyp7240 jesus christ I was never born skinny I was fat for the better part of 3 years, only this last year I managed to lose weight and I feel better already, it's not hate and I'd appreciate it if you weren't so immature about it tbh.

You shouldn’t shame or bully anyone, but you also shouldn’t enable bad habits. If someone I loved was dealing with obesity, I would certainly speak up and try to help them.

Oh please grow up
we don't need to be fat-shaming, but instead, we need to be supporting healthy life choices.
100%!!! When shit processed food costs less (and easier prepared) than fresh fruit n veg there's going to be a problem
What you are saying is true and should happen but the problem with that is that some people will still call that fat-shaming even if it is not.
People confuse recommending healthy lifestyle to fat shaming, if I go to some here are some healthy alternatives to what they eat they may take offence and think I’m fat shaming. (I’m a nurse so not going up to random people and taking digs at them). There is fat shaming which is wrong, although ironically people mock you if your right leaning politically all the time, how about we stop mocking each other and listen and discuss.
Exactly. And that's what Bill Maher is advocating for. We have to stop the nonsensical and appalling body positivity movement. If you listen to his words in the context, that's what he means by "Fat shaming doesn't need to end, it needs to make a come back". No one is saying we should make fat people's lives miserable, but we have to stop telling them it's OK to be fat, promoting obesity, criticising doctors for pointing out the obvious and enabling lazy people with terrible eating habits. And I know what I'm talking about, I was obese (I've lost 30Kg, around 66 pounds and feeling bad about my lifestyle and the consequences of my obesity was what helped me losing wait), and many members of my family are obese. The last thing we need is body positivity movement.
We need to call fat people fat like the fatties they are
I know its not the point of this clip but I've been waiting for James to reference Lesbian Vampire Killers on this show for years. It's one of the best bad films there is.
So concerned about fat shaming that he has an eating competition on his show...
shame works. just the way it is
"If making fun of fat people made them lose weight, there'd be no fat kids in schools"... damn, I felt that one. Every fat kid gets picked on, but some of us didn't make it out alive.
oh please. this comment is disgusting and trivializes real mental health issues. bill maher was simply saying we need to aim high and try harder. when i pass McDonalds on my way home and see the line on the drive thru 20 cars deep its hard to see where your trying... not a good message to bring to our kids
Jake Fay Are you saying it’s wrong for 20 people to eat McDonald’s? Stfu. I’m skinny as fuck so you wouldn’t say shit about me eating McDonalds. It’s not trivializing mental health issues considering how bullied fat people are and how bullying can lead to suicide so stfu. Bill Maher said what he said. Fat shaming should come back. Don’t even try to act like he meant something he didn’t.
@@jakefay3151 Congratulations on posting the most ignorant comment I have seen thus far on this video. There are many reasons for being overweight. Some people who have "real mental health issues", as you stated, actually gain a lot of weight because of their depression. From experience, I gained almost 100 pounds in the six years following the death of my father, whom I lost at age 15. It is not, by any means, "trivializing real mental health issues". Mental health issues arise both as a result of and causing obesity. I agree that people should do their best to exercise, eat healthy, and lose weight, but it isn't always that simple. I am 21 years old and a collegiate athlete who weighs about 270lbs. I am exceedingly active (we run and lift weights 5-6 times a week), so it's not like I'm lazy. But, am I skinny, or even a "healthy" weight? No. You know why? Because, it isn't as simple as you'd like to think.
@@leslieboelter97 90% of people are fat because they are lazy, and don't want to get off their ass. Very few is because of a disease. I know plenty of people who have depression, but still go out to the gym,a nd eat right, which actually helps boost their mood, and confidence. Its fucking very simple to lose weight for most people, stop making excuses.
@Toni Sumblin Always blaming everyone else but youselves.. You can look at ingredients to see what in food, there ARE healthy foods out there, and you can eat certain amount of portions of food to control weight gain. yes some people have special conditions that stop them from losing, or makes it harder, but the majority of people can in fact take better care of themsleves. The food industry doesn't force them to eat Mcdonalds, or other unhealthy foods.

@@user-df4yl3cs6q People shouldn't be stupid either, but here you are...
@Lin K and I do, but ultimately i don't think people should be fat, being fat is mostly a willful thing, and if it's that hard for you to just exercise or eat right or something, I don't see what the harm is in a simple reminder that being fat is bad. The only objection would be that a fat person would be offended that theyre being talked to on such terms, but ultimately its the truth, and I could give a shit about their feelings.
They are both comedians,. Don’t take either so seriously. They are both entitled to there opinion. Bill just said people shouldn’t eat like assholes and people as a whole need to eat better.
@Emma Potter You're assuming the only reason people are fat is because they eat too much. There are genetic conditions. PCOS is one of them. I gave up pop and deserts DECADES ago. I don't sit and much on chips all day. I probably eat healthier than you do. I have done everything the nutritionist have said I should do and had them call me a liar to me face because obviously, if I had done that, I would have lost the weight, right! WRONG! People complain about guns killing people. Fat shaming kills people too. And no one who's snickering is thinking about the anorexic kids who are so afraid of being called fat for gaining a 1/2 oz. that they are destroying their bodies faster than a bag of chips and a bottle of pop a day would.
apparently, the writers ran out of material for this episode, so they focused on Maher.

Bill point was mostly towards folks who say "it is okay to be fat". Although this statement might protect someone's feeling, it makes them complacent in trying to make necessary changes in their lifestyle to improve their health.
People should listen to Bill’s response of James’ response on Rogan last week.
Meh bills a prick yes fat acceptance is bad but fat shaming does nothing but make people feel terribly about themselves. The problem is as someone who was pretty damn overweight and am now in a decent place shaming people does nothing but make you feel shitty. The amount of crap I got didn't make me want to lose weight it wasn't until a nutrition class I took as a required science pre rec at college that it finally clicked and I stepped on a scale and said shit I should probably lose weight. But most people arent going to get shamed into losing weight they need to reach the pt themselves where they are ready. Not everyone will and they shouldn't be reminded of it if they aren't willing. But like I said where bill was right and Rogan is right is that fat acceptance is dangerous and bad. Good bad just let ppl be how they want.
@R SI can only speak for myself but I'll tell you people calling me fat really did nothing but actually hurt my self image when I lost weight. Because as weird as it sounds when I was 255 at 5'10 to 5'11 of like just pure fat no muscle I really gave 0 shits about how I looked. I knew I was fat and had a whatever attitude and the more weight I lost the more I started to care about self image and its just residual from all the shit I got haha. Like it might just be me but from my experience and knowing ppl who have lost weight alot of fat ppl are in denial of being fat and until it clicks for them "if it ever does" fat shaming is just being a dick to someone for no reason. If they are happy being fat let em be happy. But like I said fat acceptance isn't good or healthy. But there are ways to say that without being a dick about it like Bill usually is.
Exactly
@R S oh trust me my parents let me know. I mean I was overweight in highschool but I ballooned freshman and the 1st half of sophomore yr of college. So not really much they could do when I wasnt home haha. Like i said wasn't until I took a nutrition class which I was taking for just an easy grade that I was like shit cuz that class was legit u are going to die. But I'm telling you every single thing my parents told me went in one ear out the other. Insults from other ppl did not effect me until I got into shape so I'm telling you anecdotally shaming ppl doesn't work
@R S lol na I just gain weight easily and I'm especially susceptible to carbs. I mean it took a nutrition class and research and figure that out lol. Like I'm just genetically fucked. My cousin rarely works out eats nothing but shit and is 6'0 165. No matter what he eats it doesn't stick. If I stop going to the gym and start binging on junk food will gain like 10lbs if I do that for like 2 weeks. Every individual varies. Being fat isn't only about ur state of mind. Some ppl gain weight easily and if u don't have time to go to the gym daily (maybe you work and have kids) or eat healthy all the time it's really.easy to get out of control. And once ur in ur 30s (I'm not) it's much harder to manage when it gets out of control. Honestly ppl just need to stop being all up in other ppls shit lol
Lesbian Vampire Killers was still a more noble project than the Emoji Movie
