bro it was so obvious from the start. House Of Balloons, while I adore that album, carried lyrics and themes which revealed a lot about Abel, he is indeed a 90s kid, romantic, chatty, a man who needs time to let himself loose and the Weeknd was a mask that he or the producers and ghostmen behind him created to appeal to public taste. It was no question from the start.
@regorajczi Nah. I think it’s just a different side of him but amplified so not totally a “character”. Like many humans, he’s multi dimensional and the version we’re watching here isn’t who he always is/was. I think he’s had very sad, dark times and tried to cope with drugs and other vices. Deep down at his happiest, he may be all those positive things but like everyone else, he had a different side that he required some kind of therapy and I think that’s what Weeknd was to Abel. His music was very much drawn from his actual life.
You lack awareness. Jenna is young and grew up in Hollwood so she is trying hard to be knowledgeable. Or mature. Hopefully she grows out of it. The weeknd is just trolling her everytime lol
it's not always the case, but i feel like a lot of people in their professional mediums know a lot about the craft and what it takes to make it more than knowing about the medium and the other people in that sphere. kinda like when basketball player Anthony Edwards once said that he doesn't watch much basketball.
I listen to his music but I realised that I've never actually searched or watched interviews about him in all these years. This is the first time I've heard him talk :')
I love that he said My Dear Melancholy is his fav album. As he said it's not really an album and it was so simple and really just did what it was supposed to do
tbh it seems like an incredibly affected personality. which is the impression i get from his music. seems very hard like he's trying to convince even himself that thats his real personality
Thank you lord for not letting my hopes die in the vein, abel is REALLY DOING THIS 😭😭his voice is like a lullaby in itself like my man where have you been
Jenna is really cool. You can tell she’s got a niche music taste. It would be cool to talk to her about music. And she’s from Coachella valley? Shoutout IE
it feels so weird to see my playlist talking
Fr 😂😂
@nurajsus7220 😂😂😂

GOATE comment😂😂
Thought same 😂
Weeknd interviewing Wednesday. Who would’ve thought
lol
Underrated lol
underrated comment
It feels soo surreal to see Abel doing this😭😭
Legit. Been listening to him since 2011. Unreal lol
I know FR
Like …..talking it’s feels so weird. I have never heard him…….talk.
@ascension-spiritualawakeni7865 yess this is really weird
I know right. He's usually so mysterious
This video made me think he wasn’t lying about the weeknd being a character

@regorajczithat is honestly smart lol. But he did cause so many girls trauma though

The weekend is a closeted trans
@ElliotAlderson-cg2qkhow did your brain come up with that😂
they match each others energy so well
they both Aquarius and Libra
wish he couldve matched her energy in the film, cuz their chemistry was off
@0DAYAnubis1357 I'd attribute that to the age difference between them. He is 35, and she's just 22.
You lack awareness. Jenna is young and grew up in Hollwood so she is trying hard to be knowledgeable. Or mature. Hopefully she grows out of it. The weeknd is just trolling her everytime lol
@BeeBee-pl9lynah they even got a matching tat
Jenna introducing Abel to music he's unfamiliar with and Abel introducing Jenna to movies she's unfamiliar with is cool.
yea i thought it would be the other way around lol
it's not always the case, but i feel like a lot of people in their professional mediums know a lot about the craft and what it takes to make it more than knowing about the medium and the other people in that sphere. kinda like when basketball player Anthony Edwards once said that he doesn't watch much basketball.
They're both over a decade apart in age. That's bound to happen. He was born 1990 and she was born 2002.
@angie-jo1mn 90s to 00s isn't a revolutionary difference.
Facts!!!!!!
Abel's songs:🔪
his personality:🥰
FR 😊
Fr fr fr fr
frrr reminds me of future
Abel run your fkn bread need to buy some more chains for some more guys
hi do i have the worst music ever
The Weeknd doing all these interviews is crazy, he was so mysterious for so long
He comes out when he gotta promote stuff to make money. I remember he was everywhere for the super bowl halftime show.
he is really ending the weeknd
Movies gotta sell
@ANGELOFDARKificationbut he never did interviews. He would just do cameos or something
@Project199x He was doing skits and produced videos with James Corden and chat shows. That takes more time and effort than an interview
13:04 Abel saying he's 6'2 with a straight face is diabolical
Hello are you a true huge fan of mine
Hes like 5'8
@Ghost-d9q6f i thought he was like 5’4
bros 5,8
he was so serious I actually had to google it
Abel in misic vids:👹👿😈
Abel in real life:😂😄😃😁
Bro is sunshine and rainbows in real life 😂😂😂
The weeknd seems like a super chill dude
he’s not he cheated on his girls girl
@ski-mask-the-slump-godhe never even cheated, just sdfu
Dude,never imagined
@ski-mask-the-slump-godeven if if that’s true you can still cheat on someone and be chill lol 🤣
Of course
Never knew The Weeknd talked this much and he’s surprisingly a big kid who is a true 90s baby.
Talking about starwars and goofy, conpletely got me by surprise lol, like him even more
for me it was the All Dogs Go To Heaven mention 🥹 that movie was my childhood too
Would love to see abel do a hot ones interview. It's so good to see this chill side to him and learn about him
Yesssss that such a good idea !
Such great idea
My boi is Eritrean. Their food is ridiculously spicy so he would just breeze through the wings 🤣
I dont hate it but i really like it when he was such a mystery
YES PLEASE
jenna's tastes are so niche and specific it makes her 1000x more interesting! would love to have a convo with her
I just realized we having Wednesday vs the Weeknd
Abel seems such a smart dude. Knowledgable and witty. Like him even more now.
what does witty mean
@littlejackm quick thinker
Witty means both funny and quick thinker.
Haha witty is a funny word 😂
how do u think he pulled bella & prime selena
The weekend talks?!! It feels so unreal hearing his voice 😭
Talks but can't act
You couldn't get him to shut up on The Idol. Both in front of and behind the camera. Surprised this dude hasn't talked himself out of a career.
His so cheery id never expect this since his music is sad
I just took your likes to 1k
He shoulda stayee in the closet he lost all aura
Abel just a goofy guy
🤣🤣🤣
Need to see him at a morgan jay show
@witnessg431ayyyy. Can i get a…
Carti too
do u think i make music like the weeknd?
they're just chill ppl fr
The cultural and music and film knowledge between two people so young is WILD the deep cuts stuff i've NEVER heard of
Abel has done 5x as many interviews in two weeks as he did in ten years
😂 love it
I was thinking about the same thing.
I feel like it supports the death of The Weeknd and the birth of Abel Tesfaye
@grittynejii Facts
Cause he retired
We got The Weeknd interview before GTA-6
😂😂😂
can we retire these comments
@jinkers34we got the retirement comments before gta 6
@jinkers34 prolly not.
Damm straight bro
ABEL DOING INTERVIEW IS A BEAUTIFUL MOMENT
I listen to his music but I realised that I've never actually searched or watched interviews about him in all these years. This is the first time I've heard him talk :')
Being so mysterious for so long it’s so cool seeing The Weeknd show his personality
How fast Abel answered goat future song just shows that he truly admires his work
And the duo being real friends, there's a reason the two worked together a lot throughout the years
@JOLTER15 and every song they did was great some even masterpieces like recently enjoy the show , low life and many more
u could look at that in a different perspective too. maybe a true admirer wouldn’t be able to answer so quickly 🤔 nah i’m joking 😂.. or am i? 🤨 😂
Bro shoulda just said low life
am i the worst musician in the world
Abel's undying love for Goofy is something I never knew I needed
I mean he has no father and goofy is a great father
Goofy is actually a popular character among black culture so it’s valid haha
Weeknd’s blunt rotation got me crying
said jar jar binks with no hesitation 😂
he's definitely someone who doesn't smoke alot.
It was a fake weedsmoker answer
@nonamesnonumbers0 Don't you have something unproductive to go and do?
Him picking Michelle Lamie says it all fkn Satanist
His choice of Michelle Lamie says it all he's a Satanist!
5:53 ABEL 😭😭😭
Abel, please do Hot ones now. Loving the interviews so much.
@theweeknd @hotones
chickenshopdates
I appreciate the 'My Dear Melancholy' love, Privilege is my favourite song for sure
Same!!
🥲🥲🥲
Same, my GOAT Weeknd lyrics: two red pills to take the blues away
@michellejulietxoxo when they asked the saddest lyric question, that’s the one that came to mind
👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾
Abel’s personality is so chill and gives off such a calm vibe. It’s unreal that we’ve already had interviews from him before GTA 6.
they def have such a good connection & are so well both cultured
Maybe Rockstar is waiting for Abel, the weeknd to call them to voice the main character/protagonist of GTA 6. He be a good fit.
🤓
Bro. Weeknd’s talking voice got so much aura it’s crazy.
Insane glaze bro
@moneyaintathingbutachicken133 stop trying to be nonchalant about life and celebrities
Nah fr tho his voice is crazy
Frrr
@beanbean54bro he sounds regular wdym
Abel is such a cartoon guy, he just like me fr
My love for My Dear Sweet Melancholy has finally been validated! always thought that was his best project since Trilogy
This is the first time i heard The Weeknd talk
12:34 ALL OF THIS!!! 💯
Abel is so freakin adorable he makes me smile and his laugh is contagious
Abel always looks like the fake weeknd that pops up on Instagram's reels now and then 😂
its very reassuring that we have the same fave album. my dear melancholy is sooo underrated
Man they vibe so well together. Like besties.
Weekend is ♒ Aquarius & Jenna is ♎ Libra. Both are compatible 🤝
@supernova502 😂🤦♂
@supernova502 bruh 😭
@supernova502 Bruh sybau
ughhh I loveeee hearing him talk, I’m so glad he’s finally doing more interviews
Abel's love for Goofy is hilarious🤣
Glad he said March Madness. As a big Future (and The Weeknd fan) that song is something else.
The weekend picking “in the air tonight” scratched some leftover itch in my head from Kiss Land era that I didn’t know I had
I love that he said My Dear Melancholy is his fav album. As he said it's not really an album and it was so simple and really just did what it was supposed to do
Fan of the weekend and that's a deep album
❤
7:05 The Weeknd forgetting his favorite lyric, oh the irony. I love this guy
Watching the weeknd in an interview feels like seeing a unicorn
He lost all his aura tho he no longer unknown
@JoexLegacynow you can listen to his music unburdened by "aura" or whatever
Weekend is pure aquarius we always have grear taste in movies and music..oretega too
bro's completing all side quests now
The way Abel looks at Jenna while she opens up is so endearing, he seems like such a sweet person
tbh it seems like an incredibly affected personality. which is the impression i get from his music. seems very hard like he's trying to convince even himself that thats his real personality
3:35 MARK (PUN INTENDED )
Didn't he Co wrote the idol? 😭
@ftftyffghfvghfcht6701you're really reschin
No he seems completely normal your socially depraved life is something you shouldn't be projecting on people
Abels favourite album being my dear melancholy I SCREAMED holy love that
7:36 you don’t KNOW?! it’s your project 😂😂
He means it in the sense that it’s only 6 tracks, it’s considered an ep, but can be also called an album
I feel like she agrees to so many things he talks about but has no clue what they are 😂
his voice is so calming
I like that he's willing to demystify himself a bit.
Jenna usually plays extreme characters but she is just so calm and chill
I think you mean absent minded lol...
@rivv4902 "absent minded" and she's so knowledgable
@rivv4902You're the one who's absent minded.
My Dear Melancholy is my favorite weeknd "album" too.
Abel giving me chill vibes
Why is Abel so incredibly cute, I just love his smile ❤ God bless him
12:51 - the side eye 😂
Weeknd interview??? Ohh we living
Jenna spitting facts about the weeknd
0:30 You know she was asking about Anita Max Wyyynnn💅
The most we’ve ever heard abel talk, god bless this movie and how he has to do press now🙂↕️
3:38 The Best Man soundtrack is the GOAT
11:56 perfectly said
abel’s so excited that he was not even giving jenna a chance to pick the card😂😂😂
Abel shows explicit appreciation for Jenna throughout the whole video, it’s nice to see
Abel after reading every goat card, *slaps* 😂😂😂
I don't know why I still get shocked whenever I hear him speak. His speaking voice always shocks me.
I loved how he mentioned All dogs go to heaven for his disney rushmore.
I have a German shepherd named Charlie because of that movie
Both of there personality’s collide together so well
their
@plantcraftie4141 "their"🤓 sybau
Jenna is a Libra ♎ and Weekend is an Aquarius ♒ Both are Compatible Air signs
*personalities
I’m with Jenna. I also, agree with everything Abel said 😅😅😭
This was super dope and funny. Grateful to see others Happy. Just a light In dark place.
I can't believe we're actually getting an Abel interviews
Never in my life did i think the weeknd would be on GOAT talk but i'm sooo here for it
I realized that i smiled through the entire video😭
Literally me still smiling reading all the comments
@yvettebetancourt6706 SAme sis
Same
Abel needs to do more interviews... Great guy
Thank you lord for not letting my hopes die in the vein, abel is REALLY DOING THIS 😭😭his voice is like a lullaby in itself like my man where have you been
Abel can talk without singing ? wow
You expected him to talk in falsetto?😂
This the most I’ve heard the weekend talk ever
I’m only watching this because I’ve never actually watched a Weeknd interview before.
Now I know how he acts and what he sounds like when speaking.
completely shocked because I also cry with In the Air 😭 love u Abel
The way he immediately answers jar jar binks right away 😭
He does have the perfect brain for this
Jenna is really cool. You can tell she’s got a niche music taste. It would be cool to talk to her about music. And she’s from Coachella valley? Shoutout IE
I actually came here to see Jenna instead of the mysterious Abel 😂
STOPPP I LOVE THIS DUO 😭 I love to see two people I really like collab ‼
My Dear Melancholy 💯
had no idea he had such a gorgeous smile !!
What a great pair to do this interview! Both intelligent and talented! ❣
Abel loving all the Goofy movies just like me 😂 so aquariusss
Abel's smile and laugh gives me such sanity 😅😍
Loved this conversation between them and I hope we see more of Jenna and Abel together in the future!
Love seeing Abel like this bro was never like this before 😭🙏🏽🌅
Just the weekend and wednesday talking
11:09 that's surprising...
I would have never expected to see these two work together 😭 i love it
Abel saying that husbands by Cassavetes inspired his new film is wild. Just watched that one a few months ago
I would do anything to just sit and chat with abel man, he seems so genuine and chill. hearing him mention pink floyd was unexpected too
my playlist is talking!
This is the first time in years that I've heard The Weeknd talk about anything Canadian. Thought he was ashamed.
