  • Jameela Jamil does not want to be known as a 'double agent of the patriarchy'. Star of Netflix' The Good Place and former Radio 1 DJ, she is rallying against a culture of airbrushing, weight-loss and vanity. She chats to Krishnan about her latest 'I Weigh' campaign, being in Hollywood during the Me Too movement and why she thinks the Kardashians are a toxic influence on young girls.

    I usually am unhappy with male interviewers of women, because they talk over, interrupt, don't let the woman speak. This guy is one of the best interviewers I've seen. Watch as he sits back until she's finished her point before speaking. How rare is that? Don't live in England, so was not really aware of him before. Glad I am now. And Jameela is amazing. Makes me proud to be a woman.

    for people saying 'men also have it bad' yes you do and its just as heartbreaking to see mens magazine also further this horrible agenda but may I recommend starting your own campaign and cultivating a following and presence for it, start your own conversations on it and get interviews like this, dont interject and then hijack a conversation already started about a situation calling on the toxicity of women's hardships. If you really cared about making it better for men you would care about it outside of conversations that are focused on women, I only ever seen comments on problems men face in regard to this stuff when its in an angry response to a women talking about their experience, and its getting boring, Jameela running this campaign and speaking about this stuff in relation to women will In turn help the airbrushing and standards that are placed on men also, theres no reason to get up in arms about it I dont know what your trying to protect from silencing or condemning her for it?

      If you're talking about meninism and MRAs, the reason that was received so badly is because once again it was so largely centred around anti-feminism. Men's issues weren't being discussed by these groups in a productive way, they were still using these problems as ammo against women to 'prove' we don't need feminism anymore. Come back to me when there's a men's activism movement with the goal of helping men, not shutting down women.

Standing for our struggles doesn't mean we take anyone responsible, we dont want to nourrish angryness against man, we only want to highlight the unbalanced situations. And this unbalanced situation makes us, women AND men victims. Standing up for us, women, as we could stand for you, men, each one of us taking responsibilities for our own struggles and aware of the others struggles! I hope men can also stand for their own rights in this toxic society system, so men AND women can stand up TOGETHER and build a better and balanced society, where we can all thrive instade of living under toxic circumstances!
      And a men healing movement exist, just look for it, there are very beautiful groups like the ManKind project, to learn what is real masculinity, instade of the false creation of the patriarchal system, so men can also live free from it! But let women heal themselves too, we still need it a LOT!

    I resonate so heavily with her experience of being airbrushed to look white. Like our magazines are plastered with this white image of beauty in South Africa. Where 80% of the people are black. How do you fail to represent so poorly? I've never in my life seen an Indian man on men's health. Do you expect me to believe that the grand total of Indian models in South Africa is zero?

    I've lost a lot of faith in the third-wave feminist movement but she speaks with such eloquence and intelligence. So many in social justice speak with vague phrases and virtue-signalling buzzwords, or stand up for causes that are conveniently popular to seem "woke". You can tell she's picking issues to stand for that really resonate with her personally, even if it goes against the opinions of what other celebrities in her position would typically stand for. To say she's well-spoken is an understatement too, her use of simile and ability to summarize her arguments and ideas succinctly and poignantly after every anecdote is incredible. Bonus points for being able to confidently ask "What do you mean?" after unclear questions. Mark of a true thinker.
    EDIT: She's an English teacher. Makes so much sense

      I would actually say that these type of feminists do make up the majority of the third-wave. Not that feminism is in any way a monolith - it never has been - but I feel clickbait media does such a disservice to activists. What's going to get your article/RUclips video clicked on more? A photo of a female scientist calmly explaining the sexism she's faced in STEM industries? Or a blue-haired SJW screaming nonsense? Even I know which one would draw my attention; but don't be fooled - third-wave feminism is so much more than what your social media recommendations depict it as.

      Unfortunately, the whole Pride month movement sponsored by white heterossexual beauty vloggers irritated me as well. I love me the LGBTQ stories and the specials done by comedy central.
      Suddenly, throughout the entire month of June, my facebook and my instagram feeds were bombarded with "Hey, Let's party and eat a lot of traditional Portuguese junk food". Then, there are the summer-bods...Then there are the "look cute and super sexy in this makeup for the Saints Festival or for any summer festival"....Then there's another "woke" trend which is "Pride Month high-end or Pride makeup products", which is just a lame excuse for makeup brands to sell stuff which look...specifically for only one month but of course the daily girl will still have work to do and will only participate in her local gay parade.
      Then, after June...THERE IS no freakin' talk of equality from these "woke heterossexual " women/influencers. They only talk about their products and favorites and how they bought this cute short weekend as a preparation for summer tan, and then bling. It's as if there ain't no homophobia or transphobia or any other sort of descrimination.

    I learned a lot in this interview and it's really inspiring to hear about jameela's journey. Its obvious that she went through a lot, but she fought back and used her experience to combat the toxic environment young girls are exposed to. Anorexia is one of the deadliest mental illness and one day no one will dismiss as a silly teenage girl quirk or worse, a shortcut to be "attractive". I feel like a lot of us take social media for granted and became passive in all the issues that it causes to our mental health and daily lives. It's very refreshing to hear celebrities tackling those issues, especially by a well-spoken and brilliant women such as jameela. I hope her "I Weigh" campaign reaches more people and voices like hers will appear more often in mainstream media. As a poc woman, I'm very happy to learn more about her and this interview made my day :)

    I have never heard of Jameela before and I already absolutely love her. Thanks so much for speaking out for all of us, I couldn't agree with you more! I could say 1000 things and how similar my views and experiences were growing up in the 90s, but for now I'd just like to stick to one example.
    I have worked as a photo retoucher for around 4-5 years before deciding it was the most toxic thing in the world and moving into the film & video field, where I believe a lot more good can be done. I am not blaming retouchers here, but the things you see when you get into this field and start retouching high end models are disgusting and frightening. Everyone who knew what I was doing work wise would always comment saying "Ahhhhh, so you're the one who makes people a little bit thinner eh?" while the correct answer would have been "No, I'm the one who has to correct the very graphic signs of anorexia and malnutrition. I'm the one who has to bring back a tiny bit of curve to a starved body, get rid of the fur that grows in these poor girls faces because the body desperately tried to keep warm, make bones a little less visible so that there won't be an outcry". It's horrible and I am so glad I left this toxic job behind me. What I have however gained is knowledge which I can now teach, and explain to other people what retouching really means, and how much is done to people! I used to sometimes spend a whole day or more just on one models face, retouching every single pore to make her look flawless. I wish they would teach this subject at school to show young girls and boys how fake this world really is.

      Valerie D ** Proverbs 16 King James Version (KJV)
      16 The preparations of the heart in man, and the answer of the tongue, is from theLord.
      2 All the ways of a man are clean in his own eyes; but the Lord weigheth the spirits.
      3 Commit thy works unto the Lord, and thy thoughts shall be established.
      4 The Lord hath made all things for himself: yea, even the wicked for the day of evil.
      5 Every one that is proud in heart is an abomination to the Lord: though hand join in hand, he shall not be unpunished.
      6 By mercy and truth iniquity is purged: and by the fear of the Lord men depart from evil.
      7 When a man's ways please the Lord, he maketh even his enemies to be at peace with him.
      8 Better is a little with righteousness than great revenues without right.
      9 A man's heart deviseth his way: but theLord directeth his steps.
      10 A divine sentence is in the lips of the king: his mouth transgresseth not in judgment.
      11 A just weight and balance are theLord's: all the weights of the bag are his work.
      12 It is an abomination to kings to commit wickedness: for the throne is established by righteousness.
      13 Righteous lips are the delight of kings; and they love him that speaketh right.
      14 The wrath of a king is as messengers of death: but a wise man will pacify it.
      15 In the light of the king's countenance is life; and his favour is as a cloud of the latter rain.
      16 How much better is it to get wisdom than gold! and to get understanding rather to be chosen than silver!
      17 The highway of the upright is to depart from evil: he that keepeth his way preserveth his soul.
      18 Pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall.
      19 Better it is to be of an humble spirit with the lowly, than to divide the spoil with the proud.
      20 He that handleth a matter wisely shall find good: and whoso trusteth in the Lord, happy is he.
      21 The wise in heart shall be called prudent: and the sweetness of the lips increaseth learning.
      22 Understanding is a wellspring of life unto him that hath it: but the instruction of fools is folly.
      23 The heart of the wise teacheth his mouth, and addeth learning to his lips.
      24 Pleasant words are as an honeycomb, sweet to the soul, and health to the bones.
      25 There is a way that seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death.
      26 He that laboureth laboureth for himself; for his mouth craveth it of him.
      27 An ungodly man diggeth up evil: and in his lips there is as a burning fire.
      28 A froward man soweth strife: and a whisperer separateth chief friends.
      29 A violent man enticeth his neighbour, and leadeth him into the way that is not good.
      30 He shutteth his eyes to devise froward things: moving his lips he bringeth evil to pass.
      31 The hoary head is a crown of glory, if it be found in the way of righteousness.
      32 He that is slow to anger is better than the mighty; and he that ruleth his spirit than he that taketh a city.

    I think it's wonderful that we all have opinions that may or may not converge with Jameela's, which is precisely why we should be having this conversation about the social pressures we feel to varying degrees and in different dimensions. What saddens me is seeing people completely disregard her as a person and her views because you disagree with her, essentially reducing crucial discourse to calling her a left-wing or a "crazy feminist" etc. Let's be civil. Nothing good will come out of mocking each other.

    i wish i could like this video more than once. she spoke so many truths and i certainly feel like i needed this reality check...im an adult and i forget most things in social media, the internet and media in general are fake...and i desperately need to realize my self-worth doesn't lie in how i look. im honestly so proud such a grounded so well spoken woman exists right now

    her description of the scarcity of place for female rappers is well described and commented on by bell hooks regarding the publishing industry, as well. In that area of business run by white men and double agent women (LOVE THE TERM!!) female writers hear this 'not enough room" in books for more than a certain number of women's voices. This scarcity gets further diminished when a black woman writer seeks publishing cooperation (especially a challenging black woman writer) and hears "there is not enough interest" to cover the publishing of 2 female black writers in this moment. "There is one already, you will have to wait". The pernicious characteristic of limiting female voice functions fractally in the subdivisions perpetuated by patriarchy.

    @marcharmon5902 4 года назад +1

    I, too, was really struck by her use of the simple four word question, “what do you mean?” Today is the first time I’ve heard of her and I arrived at this clip after watching four or five appearances on late night talk shows. I was hooked initially by her brilliant comedic energy and beauty... but as I spent the last hour listening to her talking about her philosophy and experiences and most MOST importantly her reaction to the world of popular culture and media, etc... I’m grateful, excited and impressed by this woman’s ability to see and identify not just problems and bad actors but just as forcefully to be suggesting and attempting to create positive change. She walks the walk as well as talking the talk which is sadly a rarity. The way she so obviously is still humble as well as forgiving of others AND hilarious is just amazing! I’d join her army and follow her off any cliff. Truly inspiring and important to me in this moment when those very qualities are so lacking in our elected “leadership “.
    She’s awesome!

    I loved listening to this. She is on point with how society expect women to be (not being natural not loving their true shape or size).It's like we are becoming slaves of society and how they expect us to look. We all need to get out of this "filtered world" and love ourselves more starting with who you are as a person INSIDE not just the outside. Good for her - shining light on this topic. I applaud her. She is a beautiful girl!!!

    A lot of negative comments on this interview is coming from hatred and I believe it's due to her calling out certain idols of this naysayers. You don't have to adore her to know what she is saying is good and healthy way of living life. Why are we so entrapped in a life that has been determined by a narrow group of people just cause they have lots of wealth and btw primary of their wealth is coming from most of us aren't wealthy but ignorant and brainwashed constantly. When someone like her comes out and tries to educate us to the right path, instead of bashing her, let's take a moment to reflect on what she has to say and really look at our lives properly to see if she does have a point. Cause she's really hit all the nails to every head. :)

I don't know why, but it's so impressive to hear someone speak such simple truth in such a brilliant and forward way. Also really appreciated the line at 17:15 - "I believe that sometimes disease is dis-ease" and the following discussion on the topic of how illness sometimes manifests as a symptom of unhappiness.

    What an incredible and inspirational talk!! I am so happy there are people in positions of influence like Jameela who are talking about issues like airbrushing and the insane influence of social media on young children and teenagers. This message desperately needs to be filtered down into schools. The mental health and self-image effects of social media on people in their 20's, 30's and beyond- ordinary non-celebrity people also really needs to be addressed more in general. Jameela mentioned that the standards of celebrities are now mainstream- the playing field is leveled by social media. I would love to see more talk about these issues in the media. Will be looking forward future publications and the book!!

    I just discovered you on Stay Tuned Snapchat Story! I’m so happy I have 💗 it’s very rare to find people like you who are very passionate about promoting self-love instead of promoting “change who you are to ‘be happier’ “ ! I’m very passionate about this myself. This is what needs to get out more. Plenty of people in the world don’t realize they are living a lifestyle of self-hate. Being brainwashed by social media on the daily & just not realizing the negative impact it has and can have on their lives and many other lives.
