When Iza met James
Actress Iza Calzado recently got a chance to watch “The Late Late Show with James Corden” live in Los Angeles before her trip back to Manila.
“My friend Rembrandt Flores knew I was a big fan, so he took me with him when he got invited by [producer] Kate Presutti to hang out backstage,” Iza told the Inquirer.
Iza saw Gwyneth Paltrow and Andrew Rannells on the set, but was too shy to take a selfie.
When James passed by, however, Iza threw caution to the wind and asked for a souvenir snapshot. “He was so pleasant and generous. He took my phone and snapped the pic himself, making sure to include the show’s logo in the background.”
As a bonus, James also said yes to Iza’s request to shoot a video greeting for her boyfriend Ben Wintle, who similarly adores the British actor-singer. “I had so much fun,” she recalled. Bayani San Diego Jr.
