Alexi Lalas made a shocking pass at James Corden.

The soccer analyst called the former Late Late Show host a not-suitable-for-work name during a live pregame World Cup broadcast while trying to promote his show After Hours with James Corden. 

"What do you guys call him?” Lalas asked co-hosts Rebecca Lowe, Thierry Henry and Zlatan Ibrahimovi of the comedian on the June 12 Fox broadcast. “A full-kit w----r, right?" 

Though Lalas’ dig seemed unintentional, it certainly threw his fellow co-hosts for a loop, prompting him to clarify, "He's all dressed up and ready to go?”

Clearly taken aback, Henry chimed in, "Did he just say that?"

Meanwhile, Lowe pointed out that because the vulgar term is more well-known overseas, she hopes Lalas is in the clear with Fox execs. 

"Lucky we're on American television," she said, noting that the "W-word on British TV” is a big no-no. 

Though Corden found himself on the receiving end of Lalas’ joke, he’s also delivered a quip or two that didn’t exactly land with audiences. After all, he ruffled a few feathers after making a NSFW joke about legendary actress Judi Dench and famed immunologist Anthony Fauci.
