Michaela Coel Answers Questions From Lena Waithe, Seth Rogen & More | Ask Me Anything | ELLE UK

- Michaela Coel has had one heck of a year.
As we endured pandemics, lockdowns and a total overhaul of the way many of us live our lives, Coel delivered some much-needed escapism with her groundbreaking consent drama, I May Destroy You.
Was it an easy watch? Not always, no. An important one? Most definitely. Critics and (most of) the awards bodies have agreed too, with Coel walking away with two BAFTA TV awards in June and nominations for two Emmys (Best Leading Actress and Limited Series, while co-star Paapa Essiedu is nominated too).
Coel's peers are just as admiring as awarding bodies, which is why many of them, like Seth Rogen, Natasha Lyonne and Lena Waithe all wanted to film a question for our 'Ask Me Anything' video, to celebrate her October cover of ELLE UK.
Rogen and Lyonne - both acclaimed writers in their own fields - wanted to know about the creative process for Coel, with the Super Bad star asking about the consequences of putting such 'heavy' and honest material out into the world and the Russian Doll actor relating to Coel by asking how she bets on self and has the confidence to keep going with the writing process.
Watch Michaela Coel play Ask Me Anything in the video above.

I feel the world is a safer place knowing she's out there doing art.
She is one of the most strikingly beautiful human beings I have ever seen. Chewing gum was HILARIOUS.
Chewing gum was hilarious.
I loved Chewing Gum. Her mom and sis were too funny. I miss that show.
Her face is incredible..
she is the most talented writer and performer of this century. period.
relax
…and she’s gonna be in Black Panther 2 we really won 😭😭😭😭
@@goldfaust8613 nope
Period.
How if she hasn't done anything note worthy or won any real awards🙄🤦🏽♂️guess the word talented just means to be on TV
why is her skin so perfect...that glow, shine, even tone is unmatched
She is drop dead gorgeous and so so talented that we all should go to sleep
Are you serious if she wasn't on TV she would be bullied everyday 🤣🤣🤡
@Kendria Hudson umm yeah. Is that not allowed?
@Kendria Hudson lmao you sjw's are toxic and petty. I'm gonna stick with my OPINION anyhow and say gigantic mouths are not my type.
@@ecwashere8735 Tell us all of your “features” are tiny, without telling us.
@@illluminate7806 lol you guys are so fragile. Where does it hurt when the meanie insults your royalty?
Lmao I remember Johnathan Baily from that episode on Chewing Gum where he had that African Fetish now hes on Bridgerton 😂😭😂😭
I got introduced to her via 'chewing gum' and i fell in love ever since.
SAME!
Yeah, me too. I love that show. It's masterpiece
we only get one artist like her in a lifetime
She needs to run that skin care regiment immediately....love love love her she is beyond talented 💖
Clearly it's genetic
@@tvs9978 Agreed 👍🏽
just finished her new book “Misfits,” absolutely incredible work. finished it on one sitting
that's incredible
THIS GIRL IS JUST UTTERLY BEEEEEEEEEEEAUTIFUL IN EVERY SENSE................... 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
Brilliant writer and artist. Fearlessly revealing her truth, very rare. We're lucky to witness it
Her face during Kadiff Kirwan’s question was too pure for this world. We don’t deserve her. All the blessings to her!!!
The only reason why i wished she was on socials is so that i can see MORE of her! Cannot get enough of this star power, beautifuly humble, dang talented woman!
She deserves the world, very underrated she does quality work.
Underated? She has won baftas and just won an Emmy.
@@AfricancoolChic still not enough to convey the absolute force of her genius
Looking at my phone whilst listening to the first answer 🥴 🤣
Jonathan Bailey is such a stereotype of what we think an actor is. And that’s a very revealing his question.
I miss Chewing Gum. That will forever be my favorite
INCREDIBLE. She is such an incredible writer, incredible actress, her bone structure... everything about her, is just INCREDIBLE
i want to know every creative thought she’s ever had. she’s so talented
she needs to play Nina Simon she is amazing
Her skin is so beautiful. She is so smart.
She’s just a JOY to witness, also some very interesting questions asked in this video.
Michaela looks so cool and chill!
MICHAELA = 100% PURE TALENT
i feel so lucky to be alive at the same time as her
Omgg i totally forgot that episode of Chewing Gum with Jonathan Bailey😂😂😂
Beautiful looking face USS Callister brought me here. Shes in the next Black Panther I'm happy for her.
You gotta love her! Her personality, intelligence, and her art!
I could write so many things about her but I will only say this: I love her 😍🙂
I’m glad she’s on here being honest and free. I’m barely on social media and I’m so free. 💜✌🏾
I just love her outlook on life, I'm intrigued by it.
I am a massive fan.. she is so intelligent, humble, an amazing human being...thank you so much...
I'm so proud and happy that she won the Emmy 🤍
Michaela Coel is living ART.
I can't WAIT to see Michaela Coel's work start to get the attention it deserves after her Black Panther 2. It's so disheartening that she's behind what are 2 of the best shows on TV and that they didn't get the exposure they deserved.
I'd love to see her in conversation with and DONALD GLOVER.
me, too!!
They conducted a conversation together for British GQ. Definitely worth looking up!
how can one person be so perfect?
Stunning, intellectually emotionally
She’s so beautiful. Beautiful smile, beautiful skin, beautiful mind and personality!

Cheekbones for daaaaays...she's just gorgeous. So insanely brilliant & talented as well 🥰💫
You're definitely right about that, that was the first thing that caught my attention. Most definitely a beauty marker.
There is nothing Micheala cannot do, very diverse actress and I am happy because they tend to typecast darkskin actresses. Much love to her 💕💕
you can tell how many of those people love her so much, and see has such a deep connection with a lot of them too... beautiful to see
shes so cool i love her smmmmmmm
I loved her acting in black mirror she’s so gorgeous!
The love and respect I have for her, yes I'm a fan ❤
Her personality ♥
She is a great talent!!!. 👏👏👏👏
I think she is so beautiful!!
I may destroy you is the realist and best narrative around the complexities of sexual assault, consent, supporting survivors, who counts as a victim, etc., that I’ve ever seen. I cried so hard at the end because it was a REAL end. Not a movie end or a law and order end, it was real life. I have loved her since Chewing Gum and she and John Goodman were a surprisingly good team up in Black Earth Rising (I think is the name) on Netflix. Obsessed with her ❤️❤️❤️
Stunning, just a beautiful soul.
Her skin is glowing.
A queen ❤️
beauty at its finest
LOVE HER!!!!!!!!!
love her
I love her facial features she's Beautiful 🌹
god I am in LOVE with her
I love her face 💕💕
I love her

I JUST SCROLLED TO FIND OUT --- WHY IS NO ONE TALKING ABT THE JACKET
@@lizadye Because it's Prada and we can't afford it ;_;
She’d be amazing as Venus Williams on screen. She is so beautiful.
She is so lovely and amazing. Not gonna lie? Seth surprised me with his question
She's so beautiful. Im trying to concentrate but I get distracted 🙈 Love hearing what she has to say though
