"Fuck the pair of you" perfectly encapsulates British humour. Hilarious, no one's offended, and you are absolutely the butt of the joke 😂😅
i want her life, this sense of community and love that keeps us grounded
and also how she has learned how to bypass shadow-banning by Instagram :D
This was a delightful conversation. Very refreshing.
Love Jameela. She's a very funny breath of fresh air.
🤦♂️
loved hearing about jameela’s living situation, sounds like the perfect lifestyle to me tbh💖 platonic friendships are so important in our lives along with romantic and they’re incredibly undervalued. everyone should be more open minded to stuff like this !
as someone living with friends in a flat share right now, it’s hard for me to imagine a life without seeing them everyday - even in a long term relationship. create your own reality and fuck what anyone else has to say about it xx
the support system and humbling is also so true haha! this woman is truly living my dream
ok literally tearing up towards the end of this.. the bit about morning coffee is so disgustingly sweet. jameela has the secret to a happy, fulfilled life. the world was made so that we could find each other in it :,)
"Otherwise it's a bit fucky" had me rolling!
Can’t beat serenity. It’s taken me years of work to find peace. Nothing beats sitting around the table at dinner time and catching up with the family! You just can’t beat it! 💙
this is such an interesting interview and a great reminder that "normal" doesn't really exist and you can do whatever the heck you want if it makes you happy and doesn't hurt anyone else
Zig & Zag's song Christmas No. 1 from 1990 includes the line "Christmas is coming, Dustin's getting fat, Zuppy is Blue, and Zag's still a twat. Are you calling me a twat? Yeah, you twat." This is a children's song 😂it's flagged for explicit lyrics on Spotify
Wow she's such a cool open mind! I just love her!
“Are ‘the boys’ the dogs?” 😂 She did kinda make them sound like dogs. I can’t believe her dogs sleep late! Mine usually wake me up.
Jameela is a national treasure and should be protected at all costs!
No she isn’t 🤦♂️
This was delightful and now I have to listen to Russell’s podcast
On the Facebook group called "parked like a twat" I commented on a post "yes, the driver is a twat" and got Zucked with a 3 day ban.
As a Californian, I can say that most of us don't like to refer to people as female genitalia. We find it rude, crude. It is strange that we are more comfortable with calling someone a male genitalia. 🤷🏻♂️ Nobody said we're perfect... Except Trump. 😂
"On the Facebook group" That was your 1st mistake.😆
3-day ban? Those are rookie numbers in this racket. You gotta pump those numbers up.
Never seen Russel so serious!
She is the greatest ❤
I have no idea who this lady is, but i fuck with her attitude. Shes very much like myself which is refreshing
That sounds so friggen joyous. love it.
Very funny and interesting conversation. Love it!
I don't know what she means by "growing up" because I think growing up means understanding your needs and learning to provide for them and for any other responsibility you may take on. And I feel like she accomplished that. I get the notion that "growing up" somehow also includes "getting serious" but let's throw that out the window, shall we?
Life changing listening.
Jameela is a phenomenon!
Jameela's house setup sounds amazing! 🤠💜
I love her ❤
Loving these
Love this!! Love her!! ❤
The way the people from the British isles swear is just delightful
wow shes the best i had no idea. had only seen her in the good place. man i wish i could go back to living that way.
I live with my partner and a friend and it works so well
What a smart, funny and chill woman. Not to mention gorgeous.
back home where sanity prevails 👍
Being happy and alone is a true superpower.
She has created her own exclusive social community (aka extended family) that apparently works for her. I would think that she is not exclusive in that regard. There are probably other such communities across the world.
11:16 I genuinely spat out my water 😂😂😂
She's lush ❤️
Jameela is actually amazing. She's so very smart, talented and of course beautiful. I adore her authenticity and humour. She uses her platform in the best way possible, particularly relating to beauty standards.
Margot Robbie and her husband was very similar until housemates told them they needed to really get own place - as long as house big enough all get own space it’s not dissimilar to friends and that closeness and why that show was so popular
In Spain the C word (in translation) is super light and used constantly by all generations. As a brit gradually acclimatising to the language, it was a bit of a shock to suddenly understand that grannies were calling each other C@^÷ all day, along with to the grandkids. I teach English here and now we talk about different weights and how informal, adult conversation have a few differences. The first time one of them was being clever and called me a C to my face in English (friendly, smiling all the while) I nearly fell out of the chair.
3:39 this is a truth nobody mentions , so on point .
❤❤❤ Jameela ❤❤❤
“Coffee ceremony” is a real thing in the home of coffee, Ethiopia.
Yeah, the whole coffee cult is sickening. It is just a warm beverage.
@@_TheDudeAbides_ but look at you, here talking about it as if anybody cares what “the dude” thinks. “Thinks” doing a hell of a lot of heavy lifting here. You inject yourself into a lot of places you weren’t invited, and with very little to actually say, eh?
@@_TheDudeAbides_ one sub in SEVENTEEN years. Oh mate. I thought I was bad until you loudly rocked up insulting me. 🤣🤣🤣🤣 There’s always someone worse off than yourself. It’s unusual they come screaming shit about you while actually knowing nothing, but it’s still funny that you did and I’m honoured you picked me. Pick more wisely next time. Here’s a clue, only troll people stupider than you. That’s the rule that’s stinging your pride right now. You picked wrong. Next narcissist please!
@@_TheDudeAbides_ /rwhoosh, or what ‘dood’? Ethiopian coffee ceremony is an event of reverence. Mind you, on the off chance that you have ageusia, you have my sympathy, if not, it just looks like you have no taste, dood.
@@_TheDudeAbides_ “Yeah, well, you know, that’s just, like, your opinion, man.”
She’s brilliant 😊
I have been in love with her for years she is fuckin fabulous
What a great way to live.I more of us should do this❤ Also I am old as hell and my daughter and I say Tawt all the time😅 Love you both❤❤
“Oh fuck the pair of you” 😂
I feel like my life is like hers but I live with my husband and kids! We have lots of fun.
Yes, if you get on with your kids! Fortunately some of us do
@@uazuazu I do, but life isn’t perfect and sometimes they drive me up the wall. 😅
I want to live in Jameela's house.
"Nice to be where people understand what I sm saying." Damn thats relitable.
My favourite time in my life is when we had the family holiday home (very basic - it's a kiwi thing) and we would all start the day by piling on the bed with Mum and Dad (incl. partners) and talking for about an hour - it was just the best time ❤
3:38 is the most seen I think I've ever felt 😅
She's actually well cool.
She’s so cool.
Love JJ. Millennial Claudia Winklewoman but even more beauteous.
She is so effortlessly cool I can’t handle it ❤👌🏼🫶 also shw can adopt me as a chihuahua but i have to say i am a bit taller than james 😂😂😂
Sounds like Jameela and her mates are living a remake of The Young Ones.
“I don’t want to have kids” *forcefully adopts two grown adults & talks about them like they’re her children*
The dream ❤😂
If you ever have kids you will notice there is a gigantic difference in actually bringing up a kid and just talk about an adult as a kid. Having kids involve a lot of really tough times, and extra so if you are the one who are to be pregnant.
@@_TheDudeAbides_ please tell me you don’t have kids. The way you talk to total strangers gives me chills on their behalf. I hope they have good people around them too.
@@_TheDudeAbides_ I hope they learn how to deal with a narcissistic parent a long time before I spent 34 years battling one. Then spent 12 years working for two more utter narcs… But sure, “The Dude” LOL, tell ME again that I know NOTHING. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣👍🏻👍🏻 Nice one. You’re my hero. (Sarcasm, but I know you’ll take it as a compliment anyway, right?) Narc.
@@_TheDudeAbides_ how drunk are you while you angry type to strangers?
Just commenting for the algorithm 🤎
Jeffery the butler got away with saying wanker on the fresh Prince of bel air show....lol
JJ is ❄️ & 🔥 so talented and yet seems so down to earth
Lol what a perfect tosspot
3:14 Was that a Doctor Who reference? 😀
Oh wow, I wish I could move in! The only slight detractor: I am not a morning person. But for this I'd make an effort. She is living my dream!
Russell Howard Sir , please do a collaboration with Foil Arms and Hog
My ex used to get up at 5am everyday to go to the gym before work. I was usually woken and not easy to go back to sleep. She used to come back so I thought it would be nice to get up and make her breakfast and have a coffee before we both went to work. Nope she complained that I spoiling her time in the morning…. So in the end I used to get up and prep the breakfast and then go back to bedroom and read, even to the point that if she came into the bedroom I just pretended to be asleep. Divorced 10 years doesn’t look like there will be a thanks…😂
She's so cool
“Put them in your house and not let them leave.” 😅
It really does sound like these friends are just human pets who come in useful, seems a bit like a symbiotic dynamic really. Zoolander had this 😂.
3:47 wrong... it is possible! just gotta meet the correct one...
She's literally Jess from New Girl
I’m not sure where she went in America but I’m 46 and I’ve herd and said twat my entire life and so has many people I’ve grown up with and known through the years.
Humans are meant to live like this. We're a communal species that been fed the lie of individualism as way to keep us productive and subservient. Move in with your friends, accept help and help others in return.
Bloody loved this! I wonder how long Jameela has been such a lovely psychopath?
its Tahani! she's the perfect embodiment of Britishness!
They say twot
Posh southern birds swearing 😅
use Twunt
I knew next to nu-u-uffing about Jameela before I saw this. What an utterly delightful plonker! HaHaHa - just lovely. 😊
They share a giant 'Cookie' or 'Doughnut'.. 😅😂😂 a 'special' cookie perhaps?😮😊
0:48 To be fair, the only reason you can get away with saying "wanker" on TV is because of the vast majority of Americans who have not watched British TV on public television, are blissfully ignorant as to what "wanker" really means.
Never heard of her, but she sounds pretty damn interesting, and stunning to look at too !! PS, I', 64, married 36 years, so she's safe .... 😜
Give 'The Good Place' a try. She's great in it. 😊
Was going to say the same thing-I loved The Good Place and she’s terrific on it!
I’ve picked up “twatwaffle” and call people that all the time.
They have human pets.
I want to be her 😅
yes we are
Sounds more and more like a cult as she goes on to be fair😂😂😂 A fun cult but still a cult😂.
I live in the South born and raise in the Southern states of America, those two words are some of my favorite words to use.
311...
As an introvert, it sounds fucking horrific.
So... having a community already starts being healthy at 4 people? Good to know.
I guess some Americans don’t understand the difference between twat and twot. Unless I always thought our c word is spelled with an o and not an a
As I'm from the north, no one says twot.
@@cr9153 good to know. Maybe it’s just a southern thing?
Most Americans have no idea what 'wanker' even means...
Yet they keep electing them.
LA is an absolute dump considering it's the mecca for a wanna be star. I've been there many times for work and it's gross, the weather for me doesn't save it.
Swingers?
I want to be in this cult
That is a polyamorous relationship 😅
Acting is piss anyone can act as long as you can remember your lines plenty of bad Hollywood actors
LA is a hell hole you can speak freely in most places, but LA is its own shitty little world disconnected from the rest of the country
That is not schizophrenia. *Sigh.*
You are right.
She did say “a kind of, ..career” schizophrenia. Which sounds rather accurate actually. Perhaps us as people not being so quick to find fault would benefit society as a whole
@@user-lz7zc4bq3u Words have meanings. “Schizophrenia is a serious mental disorder in which people interpret reality abnormally. Schizophrenia may result in some combination of hallucinations, delusions, and extremely disordered thinking and behavior that impairs daily functioning, and can be disabling.” --Mayo Clinic It’s insulting to use psychiatric diagnoses as casual descriptive words.
Yeah. I have to admit. You possibly have experience with Schizophrenia?. The problem is, it's almost as is you are ready to jump on someone because you get triggered on an emotional level because of it. The same issue with many people, a jokes funny until it's a joke I'm sensitive about kind of idea. Maybe just try to see it in the light it's being said rather than the worst interpretation and being judgemental about it.
So funny, I heard “schizophrenia”, and my eyes dropped to the comments box because I thought “wtf!”, and you already made the comment I wanted to … casual ignorance perpetuates stigma and dangerous assumptions. “It’s just a joke” is not a defence. Otherwise, I love Jameela!
What is it with monogamous people that they have to continually insist that they're not having sex with other people or it's not a romantic thing when they have intimate relationships with other people? Those of us in the poly community really don't get it. I just wish Jameela could enjoy what she has with her friends and not feel like she has to defend it as "not fucky", so what if it is? But more importantly can't we conceive of a meaningful and intimate relationship with a person that doesn't involve fucking them if they happen to be opposite gender?
I would guess that there are too many people that _can't_ conceive that, so that's she made a quick point to mention it.
