The Britain's Got Talent winnerPaul Potts in new biopic One Chance, exclusively told MTV News UK that Harry Styles and Co deserve every bit of success they are currently having.

Corden stated: "I think it’s amazing. I think it’s great and the best thing about it is they’re all so together. Such lovely boys.

"I can’t really take in what their lives must be like at the moment but they just hold it together and I’m immensely proud of all of them and how well they’re doing. "

When asked if he feels like the sixth member of 1D, the funnyman said: "I would hate to think I’m the sixth member but me and my best friend, Ben Winston, wrote and directed one of their music videos [for Best Song Ever] and he’s done a new one and he produced their movie. 

"I just try to be on the end of the phone for any of them if they ever need a little shoulder to cry on, I’m there. Or some advice, about diseases. "
