Amanda Seales Done Protecting Issa Rae & Talks About Issa Not Empowering Women
Shannon Sharpe: I had Lil Rel and he says that Issa, most of her set is with women; camera people, etc, etc. And that she's very empowering to women.
Amanda Seales: I disagree. She wasn't empowering to me. She didn't feel like I deserved to be protected... I have still always protected her because I felt like it is my responsibility to do so, but I realize now it is not.

Always remember the story with Oprah Winfrey and Whoppi Goldberg. For years they didn't speak. They happened to be at the same function. Whoppi went and sought Oprah out at the event and Whoopi asked her, "Did I do something to you, did I say something that offended you?" Oprah was shocked and said to Whoppi, " No, I was told you had a problem with ME!" They are friends now and a lesson was learnt. Put rumors aside and speak to the person directly.
I like Oprah and 50 cent story more
Whoopi was always a class act. I'm glad she spoke up. I like both of them.
Amen to that!!@ Eliminates all the BS!!! Haters loves he/she say!!!
Absolutely agreed right on otherwise there's no communication...
Shannon: "I don't do the gossip thing" Now, Unc... 😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂
Exactly 😅
😂😂😂😂
“You need to talk to your therapist about why you don’t like me. That’s none of my business.” 😂🤞🏽
But sometimes ppl do messed up stuff and when you tell them about it, they ignore it or gaslight you. She may not believe she did anything wrong it doesn't mean she didn't. Intentions are important but so is impact
Amanda's experience is a great example of when you keep going to spaces that do not value you. Spaces that do not value you will always make you come across as the smallest version of yourself. I hope she finds spaces that value her fully.
No, Amadas experience is when you you think you are the center of the room and you act like it.and you are confused to find out that you are consistently wrong. How for almost 20 years it’s everybody love? I really feel like you know…
Why are you going then? Just to complain? 😮
🎯
U making a joke right?
I think she has a lot of challenges seeing other points of view. I feel like that’s why she’s had so many connections end the way they have.
Amanda said something key , she said when you’re sure of yourself people feel small and have issues with you. I never understood why trouble seemed to always find me even when I stayed to myself. People do not like when you do not need or seek validation and find contentment in who God made you to be. I wish I could tell her I see her and how much we value her in our community. She’s too real for the community she is in💛
👏🏾
💯 I feel her, ppl attack what they don’t understand, underestimate or control.
@@sabraha9 I agree !
Absolutely!!!👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
U right
_Just because people are the same color as you, your family, and so on... doesn't always mean they are your friend and on your side._ _You'll be surprised._
All skin folk, ain't kin folk! PERIOD!
The folks better stop being surprised and accept reality and be ready to move around.
True. It's so unfortunate.
So true
💯🎯
She made valid points. She is a woman who thinks and speaks for herself. She knows her family history. I hope she can continue to produce and write for herself and others.
Maybe she tried too hard to get people to like her who never had any intention of liking her.
@@denisedean2446So illogical, that makes NOOOOO sense. She is an Actress and Comedian they are told by everyone to make people like you. They are just Mad because she isn't a F'd Up ec child actress like so many others and they have to work with her without pity or sadness. She is also to intelligent for Hollyweird they like women dumb, desperate and on their bad crying. Grow a pair
Amanda is very educated very thorough. She knows how to play the corporate game and she’s true to how she wants herself represented on screen-- Isa is very fake. She knows very little about the people she attempts to portray inner city urban she didn’t grow up that way she is basically a fraud.
@denisedean2446 or maybe she's just extremely unlikeable
Than OH well .Always be yourself if people like it or not.
In my opinion, Issa Rae responded the way she did because SHE is the one who don't like Amanda, and she used her publicist to do her dirty work.
Seems pretty clear.
Who cares. Amanda not being likeable is not new and it's clearly HER.
Yeah, I get that feeling too
I thought the same thing!
That part, you could see that too
"I think people are going to show up for me the way I've shown up for them" - felt that.
That’s a cancer trait fr
If she means toxic overbearing intense and way into their business and with tons of expectation and pressure. That’s already what’s happening to her. It’s why she keeps attracting conflict. Hoping she starts focusing on herself and her own growth and improvement. I bet when she does that all dynamics will shift. 🙏
Unfortunately, this is a false mindset. That’s why she’s always disappointed.
I had to look up her zodiac sign after hearing that and the cancer ♋️ in me was correct because I felt that too
That’s not a good way to think about it. People will never show up for you the way they show up for them. It’s setting yourself up for failure to be disappointed.
I use to expect people to treat me like I treated them. I’m older now and I have made PEACE with the fact that MOST people disappoint me and I just smile when I’m WRONG
I started treating myself the way I treated others , man do I love me ❤
Yeah, but I yell sometimes when I am by myself.
I wish more people realized this
A Sermon
Yep. We smile even when we may not necessarily be wrong
this makes me so sad. For Issa to say "this between yall" but then allow her staff member to ban Amanda from a party which in the entertainment industry is an extension of work. This is so sad bc both you and Issa are amazing women. this shouldn't have happened. So sorry this happened to you Amanda.😔💛
I don’t think they allow it. I think they’re just working. That was a busy time for Issa
Rejection is a Blessing
IF Amanda's perspective is close to an accurate account of what happened....Issa doesn't like Amanda either. The publicist is Issa's employee. Let's speak on it fr.
Exactly. Issa lost me as a fan. I believe her
Right ! And I liked Issa . Sadly this does make me look at her differently.
@@katerradanae4042my ick about Issa was well deserved. I believe Amanda
absolutely
My thoughts exactly. It's not about women empowerment, it's a personal issue.
It was up to Issa to call off her publicist/hench woman. I think Issa was using the publicist as the scape goat. It was Issa who hated Amanda.
Pretty much, Issa is fake af.
Don't spread misinformation especially since issa has never talked about it, especially since has called her to know what happened and try to help. She even said she don't know if certain situations were true or not.
She gotta be on the show next to discredit cuz Shannon is raising eyebrows and gathering information.
YESSSSSSSSSS IT STARRS FROM THE TOP!!
if star talent had to mend the relationships of all the people they employ or are in contact with, they'd be on the phone all day - they work with and support hundreds of people. in an ideal world Issa mends that relationship between her publicist and Amanda, but I can understand one of Issa's roles not being Drama Mending of all the people she knows.
After all the Hollywood stories we hear WHY ARE PPL SHOCKED ??? I would have left that party once the first person couldn’t figure out why I couldn’t come in. I believe Amanda .
This whole story is BS. Anyone who is this specific n adding in every little detail is lying.
@@kellyperry559I don't think she's lying. I would argue she's telling her side, but ignoring her responsibility. You may be right, though. Her story is flimsy as tissue paper. She seems to lack self-awareness. If you listen carefully, she's in severe pain. Her defense mechanisms showed up all through this interview. I can care less about who did what and the gossip. She needs to talk to a good therapist. This was difficult to watch.
@@LawTzuTao No she needs to go forgive her parents who did not teach her to be herself and be aware of her environment.
I agree that she comes off very sure of herself and confident so people want to cut her down, soften her up. She is who she is. Good for her 👏🏽
If she was so secure of herself, she wouldn't constantly be trying to be in places that don't want or accept her.
I notice a trend with the type that thinks her behavior is perfectly fine.
1000%
@@methylphosphatePOET 😇
You can't convince me that issa Rae didn't put her publicist up to it or co-signed it. When you're in leadership you either make it happen or allow it to happen
I agree"" I bet you Issa Rae is the one who really didn't like Amanda tbh.
@@user-ri5rr9gj8m I a lot of people don't like her
Amanda Seales is the problem, period.
@@cmamasita90Really, why do you say that?
Well you can’t call me everyone the “N” word Amanda it is what it is.
What did you do? I arrived 😂
😂😂😂
😂😂😂
😭😭😭😭
😂😂
Thats power
Definitely gives a strong impression that Issa doesn’t like Amanda. They were both employees of Issa. There is no way the publicist should have had that much leverage to harass Amanda to that level, with zero repercussions.
I adore Issa’s work and just her vibe in general but having a publicist who works for you attacking the reputation of an actor that works on your show is BAD for your show and the legacy of your show. Issa absolutely had a responsibility to intervene for that reason alone. Now, there is all this mess. Neglecting the issue was simply bad management and bad business, and that engenders mistrust!
You definitely spoke truth to this issue. You have to call them our on their b s.
Well said!
IMO, if the issue(s) didn’t revolve around the show, then it had absolutely nothing to do with Issa Rae! It is obvious to me that it didn’t involve the show because AS said Issa asked her if it would be a problem on the set. Grown people manage your own interpersonal relationships, puh-lease!!! 💕💚💕
She's the boss. She pays people to handle issues like Amanda's energy
This is one side of a story from someone who is known for beefing against someone who we really don't know to beef.
THE FACT THAT ISSA RAY SAID TO HER DURING DINNER THAT AMANDA REMINDS HER OF THE CHARACTER SHE PLAYING. THAT ALONE SHOULD TELL YOU SHES BEHIND THE PUBLICIST DOING ALL THIS BS
Right, then to say something like that when Issa said on The Breakfast Club one of her early interviews how she didn't like people addressing her as her character on a show that was her first name. How soon we forget Issa.
@@chalinaclayton5136 I think Amanda is naive in that aspect to never think about possibility Issa Rae is behind all of this. publicist that works for her is making her star employee on her show uncomfortable. How could Amanda not see this. Amanda needs stop wanting validation just bcz you work with people doesn’t mean anything. Her interview made me sad for her to say she invited people to her house and retreats and they still didn’t show up! I guess it makes sense now that she said she had autism
Amanda has no self awareness. Like people are trying to tell you why they have an issue with you but she is pretty delusional.
They don’t like Amanda because her light is “too bright.” Issa feared that she would have “Excel-erated” beyond Issa’s rise to the top. Classic jealousy move.🤷🏾♀️
@@lindaf6274that’s EXACTLY what it is!
When she said, "Affirmative action is not supposed to diminish opportunities, it's supposed to expand opportunities," that got me!!! And what she said regarding the Issa story I believe her cause how can you believe someone is the character that you created...
She wrote the character and was like this is so Amanda, I should hire her for it. So foul.
@@brendenhuerta21 bingo!
@@brendenhuerta21what’s wrong with that ? :/
How ?? Through observation. She would not be the first person who naturally fits a character ..
"You need to talk to your therapist about why you don't like me"😂😂
When it happened initially I remember thinking… Issa didn’t want her there. Bc she had control over that. Either Amanda leaving something out about their relationship or Issa became snooty bc of people around her.
Maybe they made amends but I wouldn't consider her a friend. An, associate, maybe. She's seems to me to be one of those type 'friends'. And, by that, I mean 'iffy'. However, I've never seen her as actually nice. But, then again, I don't really know her. I peeped a bit of her demeanor during a group interview for a movie she was in, and I kinda got snooty vibes from her. I think many people just assume people like her are nice.
Amanda is the problem everywhere she goes and people do not like her. Issa does not like drama and she was put in a bad situation. That's what it comes down to.
Amanda strikes me as a difficult personality.
there is always THREE sides to the story. I don’t believe her full story. she’s busy and messy and talks to much.
Issa was at them Diddy Parties....sooooooo
Amanda should have been an attorney. She will fight for your freedom.❤😊
True!
😅
Lmao 😂facts
💯😂
And she would
Me listening to my wife talk about her day at work.
😂
Maybe a little. But she has something to get off her chest
Ima show her this Brody she been looking good lately 🤤
😂 that's exactly what this is.
Let her find out this is how you feel.
I think Amanda should look into why she wants to create a space with ppl who aren’t on her vibration…rejection is protection..
“I am nimble in a heel” …I’m gonna needlepoint that on a pillow. 😂
If I was rejected entrance to a place/ party once I would’ve went on about my business immediately after. Because nothing good could come from that
Exactly, don't let nobody tell you twice they don't want you! Party or relationship, rejection is protection.
Does this lady still have a job?
I know, she can’t read the room…and trying to invite people to hang out, totally immature. Calling someone a Revolutionary Nikka is crazy…too opinionated and set on how the world should work…wanting to hang out at a party where someone CLEARLY did not want you there and you used other people to try and weezle your way through then get mad when they chest bump you to leave…feeling hurt and rejected is a choice, that whole experience is her choice..then coming on a show to talk about it and admit she cried and people were not moved…sadly pathetic but she has chosen that experience…there is genuine love in the Universe for her but she flocks towards people that will never like her…she needs a life coach to remove her from being addicted to this victimhood mentally. All those characters she is talking about are so petty…the host of the show is clearly bored and struggling to engage in the substance of her pettiness…she needs psychotherapy and a more open mind. Shay this was an embarrassment after the heavy hitters you had…she added nothing to our lives. People don’t like her because she is lost…an ungrounded immature adult.
But it wasn't this Mexican girl's party she was the phucking non-physical bouncer haying on Amanda the nerve of her!!!
I believe she must be a challenge, just the way she started this interview made me dislike her, I had to come back to it to realize she is very intelligent. First impressions are sometimes the only chance you get.
"The jealous are troublesome to others, but a torment to themselves."
BARS ❣️‼️ Who is this quote from ⁉️
So true!
Word!!!
@truthteller816- That quote is attributed to William Penn
This is so sad. May your tribe find you Amanda and may you find them.
She was invited, asked to come back multiple times, by multiple people, one of whom was an organizer of the event, and they treated her like she did something wrong... that's crazy.
One side of the story
She’s the common denominator…
Very!
A few weeks ago she complained bitterly of not being invited to certain events such as BET awards, even tho she hosted the 2020 one from her house. I guess one time with her was enough for BET!😒😩
She was invited by people on the guest list, not by those who created the guest list.
I like Issa Rae but honestly I think she called the show insecure because she was and clearly still is insecure. Under no circumstances should this have been allowed to happen. That publicist is a little B and those people can ruin your life
Yessss I agree! I think all the others were mean girls to Amanda - colorism works in funny ways sometimes! It’s sad!
Insecurity is a common phenomenon and shouldn't be demonized.
@annnee82 Just remember, this is only Amanda’s version of events.
So everybody dislikes Amanda for no reason whatsoever? 😂
Yall goofy females believe anything. You heard one side of the story and ran with it. Amanda Seales is the common denominator in all her issues.
Unc the best person to vent to lol cause he really dgaf lmaoo
😂😂
😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂
Stop it,
How do yo arrive at that statement because is clearly paying attention to reiterate.
Amanda you are so intelligent and eloquent. Don’t stop speaking so clearly about things that we as a people sometimes don’t even understand ourselves. The layers of internal discontent that cause us to be divisive amongst each other. Thanks Amanda!
That was a joke right , calling her intelligent lol that was a good one
Well she is quite articulate! Amanda raised alot of good points!
Nobody calling you back… Yah is calling you higher. He isn’t bringing the fire, but He will protect you through it… to the other side. Seek him in your quiet place.❤
Question: Can she not be articulate and intelligent… many people are.
Now thats true comedy😂
Sharpe is fully processing the whole situation like I do. He’s asking the right questions. I’m even more of a fan now. Amanda Seale is intelligent. She is good at her job, whatever it is. ❤ Sharpe is sharp.
Amanda spoke so little about Issa in this interview… Yet thats what the title of the video is all about. This is a prime example of that she talks about in the end of the video - journalists/social media platforms will say anything for clicks. The ending of this video was beautiful, she said so many things that couldve been highlighted in the title
and almost every comment is dragging Issa. See what I mean.
Lol Insecure is/was Issa's show tho.
Amanda, love you, dear sis. Thank you for your honesty.
But everything is about Isa. Read between the lines!!!!
@eniolafolorunso1095 so Isa is the hater...who gave Vanessa the power to mistreat Amanda?
I like this chick, she not willing to play the game, or let people playing in her face ❤
Nah she is to grown for that she been had her veteran badge working with so many people
Exactly, she's in the wrong industry. Hollywood is nothing but fakeness. Girl go be a teacher or lawyer.
She def playing the game of the business but also just telling her story
She's beautiful and they are jealous of her. People start rumors about Beyonce that's because they're jealous of her I almost got into a fight on the bus long time ago when somebody was talking about Beyonce😂
@@lisa196409That’s weird.
She speaks blanket truth, it makes many people nervous.
1000% ❤
I love how she has stayed so authentic for MANY YEARS!
If youve seen footage of amanda as a little girl, shes the same. She was a super smart kid, only child, mom encouraged her curiosity and to have a voice. Thats what i see...she spoke maturely as a child and has continued to be super articulate and assured. I think it offends ppl and i get it but she really doesn't mean to.
True her mom is the blame here because her gift is also her curse. It’s odd that Amanda References the 48Laws bits fails to apply Law 04: Always Say Less Than Necessary to her own life. Which contradicts the very thing Amanda credit as her greatest strength. I find it odd that Amanda never realized the importance of the law. Amanda may be intelligent but in this world equally important is also being smart. And really smart people know when to be quiet. If no one knows your thoughts, you cannot be conteolled
@@dougedoug2105 She's definitely missing a number of social cues, not the most premeditative and yeah it's absolutely her upbringing, she's used to being centered. She needs coaching to help
She was problematic as a child as well. In Orlando, I grew up right to the school she went to while she was shooting My Brother And Me at Nick Studios and she was known as the mean girl in school and on set.
Yes. I remember her on "My Brother and Me"
@dougedoug2105 This right here! Say less....Amanda 🗣listen more than you speak! Also 🗣 people don't HAVE to like you!
Nah, i don’t like that. If this is true, Issa dropped the ball big time. Amanda is right about the responsibility of leadership and handling all personalities who report to you
Shameful 😔 I’m glad Amanda has stayed in positive mindsets. Her personality and contribution is priceless
You're drawing a conclusion after hearing one side of the story. We have no idea what Issa experienced during this situation.
@@ewest8638 I literally said “if this is true, Issa dropped the ball…” it’s a conditional opinion contingent on the actual truth lol
You only have one half of the story; at the end of the day, its not really our business. These are grown adults beefing.
I was talking to a friend about this. No I don’t know her career trajectory to know how she started off but with the little that I think I do know is that Issa was probably learning how to be a leader herself that time. And this was one of those drop the ball moments. I’m sure looking back she wishes she could’ve made a better decision. You probably follow this more than I do… Am I hitting the mark or missing it?
What I'm hearing Amanda say is that in EVERY situation, she did nothing wrong 😂😂
FACTS 💯
@@ntombizandilelilly1 Exactly, and that trouble seems to just follow her around! Is her luck really that bad or should she at least take some accountability like the adult that she is? 🤔
Lol if I'm not mistaken her whole thing was I get treated a ways because I have autism......she diagnosed herself 🤦🏿♂️🤣
If that’s what you heard then you lack critical thinking fr
That’s most women lmao
“It’s Goku over here, I’m like, aaaaaaaAAAAHhHh!” Bahahahaha I love her!
I was cracking up!
The people who insisted she attend the party also didn’t protect her. I feel for this woman.
Say it again for the people in the back!
She crashed a party she was purposely not invited to, thrown by the person that she knows doesn't like her. She is clearly not as much of a medium or psychic as she believes.
@@rudesword2852? she said multiple times that she was invited
@@rudesword2852she was asked to come by more than one person. She should have left the first time with her head held high and looked for some new friends
She's a toxic person. It can't be everyone else. It's her!
Some people love the word ACCOUNTABILTY, but I've found peace in the word DISENGAGE.
☮️
Wisdom
Sure. Amanda should have DISENGAGED the first time she was told she's on the do not enter list.
You’re wise
Wow, what a word ❤
When she talked about why she was light skinned it brought me back to roots 😢 we have to stop fighting each other mentally as well as physically. God Bless.
This clip was rather interesting, and from my viewpoint I can see a couple instances where Amanda maybe didn’t make the best choices for herself. To me it boils down to her expecting certain things from people that were more acquaintances/coworkers than her actual friends. Unfortunately that’s where discernment comes in. It sounded like she continuously tried to create a community amongst people that weren’t meant to be in her inner circle.
Amen.🙏🏻
Yes!! At the end of the day it is work. I feel for her. I love building community. But sometimes you have to understand work is not the place where you'll make new best friends.
Well said.
Get a passport instead of Nikes. The world is ours to explore. Let’s not limit ourselves to consumerism. She is telling the truth right there
Exactly
I wear Nikes on the plane... Stop thinking everything is deep.

Learn to be happy at home and watch the desire to leave melt away.

@@CnormTV It’s not a character flaw, it’s culturally based and majorly depends on how you were raised. We cannot always fault people because they had a different upbringing. It just is what it is, Victim Mentality @ its finest.
For people who don’t understand the term “Gatekeepers” this is an excellent definition or example. I can relate!
Thank you so much for giving her a platform to say all of this. I’ve never seen her before or after Insecure, which I thought she was brilliant in, but no even more so. I wasn’t aware of any of the backlash so I’m grateful about it from her first. This interview has inspired me to go find her book. She is so quick, witty, beautiful inside and out, what an amazing, sensitive sounding woman with a supper spirit. I’m light skinned too and hearing my similar experiences articulated with that double edge, eloquent code switching was a rare treat.
Raising my hand too ...I am a light skin, and I am aware enough to know that Amanda is giving light skin energy in every story. If people tell say it doesn't matter anymore, they are lying
In an industry full of snakes & fake friends, nothing Amanda says is a lie... Envy & jealousy are dangerous combinations. The term "brutally honest" comes to mind. The publicist was the "fall girl" for Issa's insecurities. Amanda refuses to be disrespected and be silent... and they can't stand it. Stand your ground,Queen🌹♥️👏🏾
Very well stated
I really like Amanda. I have to say I look at Issa Rae in a different light now. Not good.
I agree. I believe Issa was behind all of this, or that she is incredibly dismissive. I find it hard to believe that a publicist has the type of power to turn away guests at a Hollywood party. I also find it hard to believe that a celebrity would allow their publicist to create a hostile work environment among your employees and you not feel it is your duty to intervene.
This comment should be pinned!
Idk something about sis seems off since she got big, Issa I mean like she forgot she started broke and with KZhead.
Shannon sound like Bubba Gump talking about those fish-"catfish, crappie, perch, bass, tuna, branzino...."😂His TRUE COUNTRY SELF....I love it!
Dang now you got me all hungry 😂
I’m seeing this comment as he say it 😂
😭😭😭
Is that you Issa?
😅😅😅😅
POWERFUL & STRONG WOMAN!!!❤❤❤ I believe that your intelligence, self confidence, strength & independence is your SUPER POWER & your light is intimidating for insecure jealous hearted people. Don't give anyone permission to dim your light. ❤❤❤
Baby, never go where you’re not wanted. Although you thought you were invited, when you stepped up and you were told that you were persona non grata, you should have left. If the persons who were telling you to stay and you were going in with them did not have enough pull to get you through the door (and that person if they got you in, should have been you’re companion while you were there), then leave!! Simple, really!!! But, there isn’t anyone who could have convinced me to enter the party when I had been specifically told that I wasn’t invited!!!!! 💕💚💕
The thing that most people don’t understand is that PEOPLE WILL DISLIKE YOU BASED OFF OF A RUMOR or EXAGGERATION!!!! I think she has a strong personality and there’s nothing wrong with that! People don’t like her direct approach but that’s none of her business either! Most Narcs don’t like honest direct personalities because they lie. I love Amanda! Keep speaking your truth ma’am!🩵
Yess ma’am to everything you said ! I hate that people are crucifying her for her strength and knowledge.. it only offends the weak.
But why? Why would I concern myself with your journey, or your lack, unless you need my help. No time for child's play.
Very well said!!
I have a friend who reminded me a lot of Amanda. Intelligent, attractive, successful...very hard to get along with, especially with men. We're in our 50s now. She finally admitted she's very lonely. That's huge for her. Be careful of admiring personality types like Amanda. Definitely, don't immulate it. Eventually that abrasive personality in women ends miserably. It costs nothing to be pleasant.
And, if someone tells you you're on the list not to be admitted, find something else to do. She tried to bogart her way in someplace she was told 3 times to leave. That's not strength, that's idiocy. Nothing that happened after, lies or not, would have occurred had she just left after the first or second time.
At the end of the day, no matter what you think of Amanda Seales, Hollywood is too sick to be in the right.😷
I won't say the whole Hollywood. 😅
@@followGreatnessbut one can say a huge portion is.
Amanda seems more suited to politics, she is trying to be a genuine person in a fake a$$ industry like entertainment.
@@kekedreamLol politics is worse. Fun fact, DC has the highest population of men that have plastic surgery. If I asked someone that question, I’m sure most would say Hollywood. Hollywood is a reflection of our society.

I get it. She just takes a LONG TIME to answer these questions. Sis goes all around the world and then some but I get it.
I CANNOT GET THESE MINUTES BACK.

It proves how good of an actor Amanda is because I would never compare her to that character. And I think Issa lied to cover why she really didn't like her cause as a writer and director she displayed pure ignorance by saying what she said.
This was one huge therapy session. Shannon is a entertainment psychologist 😅
She’s speaking for many of us underdogs who refuse to back down
@@SuchASaintshe’s not an underdog. She seems like a person with a chip on her shoulder & thinks she’s always right, but still should be given love. Only my opinion.
@@bonbon-gl8qo your opinion
@@jamesmcclaren9759 for sure. I forgot to mention that she also seems to be brilliant as well.
😂😂😂😂
“Need to understand energy that’s not our own.” Say it again for the people standing in the back!
Everybody can’t handle amazing people. You are amazing. Keep rocking in your greatness! Your energy is phenomenal! We will be hated on based on our amazing energy that they wish they had.
I have experienced someone saying they didnt like me and I had no idea who they were. Someone had to point them out to me. Amanda is very outspoken, i can believe this publicist used her "power" to say she's not allowed in just because she didn't like her. Issa does does give off I'm not getting into any fights for anyone vibes.
I agree
I agree as well.
I totally agree! 👏🏾👏🏾
Issa is definitely not that friend that’s going to fight first and ask questions later…. Issa is going to the bathroom while you fight she’s not helping…
Amanda strikes me as simply annoying. Literally everybody at the party was like, good riddance
I know she’s a trained actor but I really believe her experience with being on Insecure and working for Issa Rae was what she described to Shannon. The way she describes her interactions with Issa Rae are accurate in how she talks in all of her interviews
What do you mean?
@@gaila.9852 I mean I believe her.
@@gaila.9852 what I mean is I believe Amanda
Shannon was so ready to end this interview...he was done 5min into it 😂😂😂
I’m glad I wasn’t the only one who felt that. 😂😂😂
True because he was on the same thing we’ve all been on until he finally gave up. Stop trying to find an issue with her and listed. Oh, he was there for the interview.
😂😂😂😂 Facts
It did seem like that, I was thinking the same thing,😂
So was I.... BORING AF💯🤣😂🤣
Amanda just do your own show because the people is here we love how real you is
See as an adult I have to appreciate Amanda naming names, and what she is saying doesn’t sound like gossip or fake!!
exactly she is very real and literal and extremely honest
Yeah they kill me when they wanna tell it without naming names
but.....unless the story is verified, its still...literaly.gossip. Just because you like the charisma of the person saying it changes nothing.
@@MrBanks-dp4zpsomeone recounting something that happened to them doesn’t qualify as gossip. The fact that she’s here giving names, knowing those ppl will see/hear yay she said…. It’s highly unlikely that she’s lying.
@@VirgoGoddessXxountil someone collaborates her story,it's just hearsay. In my opinion it's still gossip
Years ago I peeped that Issa Rae did not like Amanda. They were doing press for the second season of Insecure and it was Issa's body language towards Amanda.If the boss doesn't like you the rest of the team is not going to support you in anyway. I've heard some things about Issa but she has a very likeable public persona so it does not get any traction.
It will now. People are definitely going to look at her funny now. All that stuff always comes to the light and the way this year has been going, everyone's toxic and shady behavior is getting exposed.
@@Destiny-tm1bh No because nobody but KZhead commenters takes Amanda seriously.
@@AshleighDanburryI wonder if more than KZhead commenters took katt williams seriously? What about Monique? Shut up 🤡
@@AshleighDanburryexactly. Issa will be fine.
@@AshleighDanburryThis sentiment is how people are protected for years and sometimes decades in their wrong doing/bad behavior. The OP said that he/she has heard negative things about Issa that apparently came from someone other than Amanda. Not saying that the things the OP heard are true, nor what Amanda said either, but still to be dismissive is part of the problem.
It’s because she speaks up. No one likes when a person speaks up. Same for Mo’Nique. Doesn’t matter if you are right or wrong. Being honest and looking out for others doesn’t work in today’s society. I had to learn the hard way.
I feel Amanda and her pain! Those specific individuals outcasting her are insecure, and jealous of her confidence, her strength! They don't like that you're proud, strong and secure in your stance. Your walk in life is a bold presence and a sense of keen self awareness! They're alway's watching you, wanting to take away your confidence. It's definitely the spirit of the devil. Rather than simply allow you to live your life and be great, they're threatened by your lifestyle, your demeanor and want to cause some form of calamity toward you, if you're naive enough to fester such negativity.
“ she called back? .. No she called around “ wow that’s deep who ever that woman is has a wicked heart!
That's how you handle a beef. 🤷🏿♂️ You use the tools that you have. Amanda doesn't have the industry connections to throw body blows like a publicist can; she can only go to friendly contacts and complain publicly...
smear campaign
@@THEAdmiralXizor When ones uses those kinda tools, they've just planted a seed they are not ready to harvest. The karma wave that comes back will be other-worldly.
@@THEAdmiralXizor or hie a real much bigger publicist than the one Issa has...trust me...that Vanessa publicists would be gone in a minute, if Amanda hired the right publicist to blow back.
@@BlueRain-fp4so 2 problems with that idea: (1) Amanda can't fund a bigger publicist than Issa has - she works for Issa too! 🤷🏿♂️ (2) What publicist would take on Amanda? Especially to take on another publicist? This would only work if Amanda had ridiculous money or serious industry power. She has neither.
When Issa and Amanda sat down at the dinner table and Issa said that she think that Amanda has something against her. Brings me back to the whole Emmys party thing lol. “OH SO IT WAS YOU THAT MADE SURE I HAD TO LEAVE YOU JUST HID BEHIND YOYR PUBLICISTS ) got it lol
People do this all the time without asking questions just assuming
Issa AINT YOUR FRIEND!!!!!
This was the interview I didn’t know I needed. 🌺
❤💕🦋🌸🌺🌻
The insecure set sounded toxic AF for her. Show about friendship and she was excluded on set. Everybody in the cast was at Issa wedding but Amanda
It's a workplace lol. They're there to act, no be friends. Maybe Issa doesn't like Amanda. Amanda continued to be in Insecure until the final season. Don't mean they were friends.
It’s a job. Separate the characters from the real people.
This is sad. We all need to do better. It's ok if you don't care or like a person. But to try and ruin their career or put them in a negative light is not right.
@@kingtchala6832the wedding was not the workplace
What goes around, comes around , the energy you put out comes back . That goes for all parties.
People do not show up for you like you do for them. I felt that in every bone in my body
💯
So true!
I think the worst thing to do is to show up for people expecting something back. Getting something back doesn't have to be from that person.
Yessssss. Happened to me
Its always the white person's fault. This is what taking no accountability looks like. This is what victimhood looks like. She literally blames EVERYTHING on white people. MY LORD!
Amanda , I feel you ! This is what happens to me all the time . I think and see like this . Your great just keep being you. We need you . 💕
Gotta give props to UNC for even listening to this agent of chaos for this long. 😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂ommmmgggg haha but fr you could see in his eyes that he was hanging on by a thread trying to be supportive & faking agreeing with her
@@chelsealee6349 Factual! Because I would have finished up this interview within 10mins. 😂
Agent of chaos 💀
I used to feel like Amanda was protecting Issa and now it’s confirmed.. I used to wonder why won’t Issa say anything?? Now we know why.
And I’ve ALWAYS wondered why Issa never spoke about what happened to Amanda afterwards. She was “church mouse” silent. And did you notice once the last season ended, Amanda was barely present for the finale activities?
Because she doesn't have to. Amanda is the one with the problem. Practically the whole cast of Immature didn't like Amanda. There is too much drama with Amanda and it's exhausting. I wouldn't want to be bothered with her either. It's not Issa's fault for Amanda's disruptive behavior. There is a long list of her "misunderstandings"🙄
@@Kimmi-om2nv It sounds like YOU were on set with them 🤷🏽♀️ sounds like you’re jumping to conclusions and judging her in the same way. What’s the disruptive behavior you’re speaking of? If the leader doesn’t like someone and everyone else wants to keep their jobs, I don’t think it’ll be that hard to alienate them or distance yourself from that person. You should be able to see that there’s more than one way of seeing things.
@@ew0711lol Issa’s publicist has entered the chat.
@@sympthylost tell me about it 🤣😂🤷🏽♀️
I think Issa using her publicist as the fall guy and it’s really Issa who start hating on Amanda & so the publicist start hating on Amanda. Issa just too scared to admit she’s the one with the problem not the publicist.
Issa felt threatened by this woman and started the hate train then the publicist took the blame.
@@km4336 yeap!
Disgusting.
That part
Lightskin Hate is a real thing. People think they know who you are, got you all figured out, and don't like you, won't like you, simply because you're lightskinned. Issa done probably lost a few boyfriends to a couple lightskin women.
You are a wonderful spirit with the less than simply attempting to break you down. I'm so happy that you have called these people out. Keep your shine girl, you're not a door mat.
She is delightful in her own mind
It sucks!! I loved Insecure. Amanda is a sensitive person with a strong personality. Not everyone can handle her, but the people that love her, will love her. She’ll be okay. I hope she finds happiness and continue to be happy.
That's me!
Absolutely 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
I love Amanda. And I’m convinced that Issa Rae KNEW Vanessa banned Amanda from the party in advance and CHOSE to do nothing about it. I think Issa was DEFINITELY in on the messinesses of that whole situation because she didn’t come to her defense, but kept emphasizing how she had nothing to do with it. I’m SO glad Amanda talked about it because I’ve always thought Issa should’ve done more, but now I’m thinking she intentionally allowed the drama to fester because Issa was on the same type of time her publicist was on. That’s shady asf. Issa sounds like a straight up Karen. Like why was all of this necessary? I relate so much to Amanda, and she must be protected at all costs.
You are right! I agree!!! What the publicist, Vanessa did to Amanda, she can will easily do to ISSA! She's trying to use her "power" ...and it's always fun ad games until it happens to you! A publicist should never be in a situation like this. This is a total nightmare and if I was one of her clients I would be very concerned, I would probably run, and RUN FAST! Publicists should play the back, I would NOT trust her at all if I was Issa.
It's not cool what happened to Amanda. It hits home because I've had stuff like this done to me.
Same! I relate to her as well.
Crabs in a barrel?? They both trying to get out of the barrel so they keep pulling each other down back in the barrel with the rest of the crabs.😂😂
I’m convinced Issa Rae did the banning and the publicist is the scapegoat.
This was a great interview, thank you!
Best interview Ever She smart Intelligent and I watch whole video.. Perfect conversation ❤️💯❤️
Shannon be acting like he don’t know what’s goes on in Hollywood 🙄🙄
He is an interviewer. He has to ask questions in an unbiased manner. He does know what happens in Hollywood but he can’t reflect that. It keeps him neutral so that Issa will feel comfortable coming back to his show.
Because he’s also in compliance.
@@alexajay6896 🎯
Just because he's an athlete doesn't mean he's associated with Hollywood. Those circles aren't the same.
He’s helping YOU understand what’s going on by asking those questions
He is a good listener. He recalls correctly, he is attentive.
Well he is getting paid to "listen" lol
Ahhh ooo ok 😅
@@DV-ou1yu We're all paid to our jobs at work. Unc just does it and he does well paycheck or not.

@@hannahevans8193we YOU ARE RIGHT! He is totally engaged having me engaged and interested. 😢
You don't need to change your energy girl. You've LITERALLY told my story and didn't even know it but further down the road-I realized the problem wasn't "us" it was *THEIR* problem. Girl move forward; and I loved your character in insecure. Please don't change😍
I can’t believe I’m hearing this. I’m going through the EXAct same thing with some of the women at my job. Lately, I cry every day.Why are we doing this to each other? It is such a waste of energy & time. Every word you say I identify with .
I can totally relate to what Amanda's saying...they're just hatin' on her! And that's why I don't mess with too many women, cuz when you're sharp, confident, intelligent and beautiful, you're a target to be destroyed.
Shift that mindset. Because the reality is once we find our tribe. The shared experiences will always be elevating. Finding true community is not about any of these nonsense. Remember we attract energy. Be THAT energy you want to attract ❤
@@chopituppodcast Beautifully said and needed to be said. I agree 100 percent. Please change that mindset
" sharp, confident, intelligent and beautiful " lol all self proclaimed. Being all those things doesnt out way being a b**** and intolerable to be around.
Amanda Seales is an example of BW passive aggression towards light skin & bi-racial women 🤷🏾♀️
@@sunnybright8206 Issa set her up when she had her go on the show in AKA gear. That was actually crazy behavior - on Issa's part. She knew exactly what she was doing. Disrespecting AKA and making Amanda a target. Who TF does that?????
I can listen to her speak all day. The wealth of wisdom, love for her people, and her open mindedness to listen, research, and learn. Live you Manda!
She is delusional and annoying
I gave this a honest listen and I have to say I’m exhausted after hearing her
Take a nap
I like this women! She presented herself very transparently. Truth is brutal! She brought it and shared her pain. I like you for the person you are Amanda. Prior to this interview, I had only seen your sketch comedy show in passing. Now I'll look for opportunities to see your work. Love you!
Amanda is incredibly detailed
Hello, part of her diagnosis 😂
They HAVE TO be jealous of her on PETTY LEVEL #1
We didn’t need all these details.
Exactly, which is more reason to believe her. I don't think anything she said was a lie or exaggeration.
@@Destiny-tm1bh no pathological liars tell very detailed stories...and they believe their lies as well.
Their fishing conversation was so wholesome 😄. Amanda was dialed in and Shannon was showing true southern charm
Sounded like deflection or flirting, did I miss something like the hug???
@@sharrellwyatt5850I thought it sounded like flirting too. Seems like she would do well with an older man. Wait is he an older man? She also has fresh, young energy (in a good way) so maybe that’s why I’ve drawn this conclusion lol.
@@queendeche4555she’s mid 40s
@@queendeche4555 Hmmm, Shay is straight forward and he is already bored with her here. It would be a touch and go....from time to time.
