Ruth Jones Impresses Harry Styles with Wild Thing Performance at James Corden's Birthday Bash

Ruth Jones has revealed she once impressed Harry Styles with her singing at James Corden's 40th birthday party in Mexico in 2018. The actress, 59, performed a rendition of 'Wild Thing' that left the former One Direction star in awe.

Corden, now 47, recalled the event during a book event for 'When Gavin Met Stacey And Everything In Between' at the Palladium on Monday. He described how his wife Julia organised a surprise party, bringing together old friends and a mariachi band.

Jones, who was also a guest, took to the stage to sing 'Wild Thing' with a small band. Corden said: 'She sang it like her life depended on it. It was so good, she left the stage and Harry Styles said to her, "How did you do that?"'

The pair, known for their roles as Smithy and Nessa in 'Gavin and Stacey', are reportedly working on a new project. A source told The Sun that they have signed a seven-figure deal with AppleTV+ for a 10-episode series, expected to begin filming next year and release in 2027.

The new show will not feature the original 'Gavin and Stacey' characters, but will instead focus on a new format. Casting has not yet begun.
