James Corden Almost Reveals Oprah's Cell Phone Number on The Late Late Show

To be filed under "when late night bits go wrong," when James Corden tried calling the actual Oprah Winfrey via speakerphone on Tuesday night's Late Late Show, he was routed to her automated voicemail message, which promptly began reciting her phone number. A quick-thinking Corden immediately hung up, only for Oprah to call him back.

As you can see in the clip above, Corden continued the bit, proceding to pitch her on a new business idea:  a new chain of Oprah-branded lifestyle hotels with the name "Otel."
