You understand Daniel Craig. He’s Benoit Blanc, he’s Rachel Weisz’s husband, and, maybe most famously of all, he was James Bond.
And whereas studying that first line in your head, you in all probability pronounced his final identify in considered one of two methods — “Crayg” or “Cregg.”
Should you’re British, you presumably learn it the primary manner. And if you happen to’re from the States, it is extra seemingly you went for the second choice.
Nevertheless, there is an accurate reply right here. And Daniel could be very eager to make sure that everyone seems to be on the identical web page.
Showing on The Late Present final evening to advertise his new film, Queer, the 007 star abruptly highjacked the interview to tell Stephen Colbert that he’s been announcing his identify flawed for a few years.
Stephen requested if he’d been responsible of claiming “Cregg” prior to now, which prompted Daniel to provide a fast lesson in phonics.
As Stephen struggled to understand the idea, Daniel sounded it out much more clearly. “Daniel Crayg. Daniel Cregg. You don’t hear the distinction?” he mentioned.
Ultimately, the host started to comply with, realizing the error in his pronunciation. “Oooh, I hear the distinction,” he mentioned, taking a second to apologize. “That’s refined. That may be a refined distinction, and I apologize.”
Fortunately, Daniel appeared blissful to forgive and overlook as Stephen lamented over the truth that he’d been getting it flawed for thus a few years.
OK, be sincere. What number of of you’ve gotten been getting it flawed, too? Be happy to admit within the feedback part — I gained’t decide. You may watch the complete clip from The Late Present right here.
