James Corden says he has given up meat but adds bread is now his "vice".<\/p>\n

The host of The Late Late Show in America explained he gave up meat after reading about abuse of elephants.<\/p>\n

"I was upset about animal welfare while eating a bacon sandwich," he told the Radio Times.<\/p>\n

"I thought, 'Well, you really can't be upset about elephants and not think about the pigs.' I hope I can keep it up. I will certainly try."<\/p>\n

The talk show host and actor is currently promoting his latest film, Ocean's 8, which he stars in alongside the likes of Rihanna and Sandra Bullock. <\/p>\n

He lost six stone before he took up his job in the US and plans to become a vegetarian next by phasing out fish.<\/p>\n

"It's going to be a gradual process" he said.<\/p>\n

The former Gavin and Stacey star, 39, also said that in his younger years he did not imagine he would become the star he is today.<\/p>\n

"No one is more surprised than me," he said of his achievements, which include winning Emmy Awards and TV Bafta. <\/p>\n

He said: "But I always knew I wanted to perform. The only time my school attendance record was 100% was when we were rehearsing a play."<\/p>\n
