  • Comedian and actor Amanda Seales joined Jemele to discuss her groundbreaking variety show, “Smart, Funny, and Black,” and why she considers herself to be a comedian first.
    Amanda also talks about the final season of the HBO hit television show “Insecure,” what she’s learned from playing the character, Tiffany Dubois, and the “beef” between her character and the black sorority, Alpha Kappa Alpha.

      I don't think history should or will be kind to her. She attacked Tamir Rice's mother because Shaun King was using her dead son's name to raise money that wasn't going to the family to help them.
      She said Jussie Smolett doing the hate crime hoax was "noble." Amanda spit in the face of actual victims of hate crimes by doing that.
      These big names like Marc Lamont Hill and now Jemele Hill defending Amanda and not reading the articles that point out these issues, is some Candance Owens level grift at this point.
      Amanda is ALWAYS on the wrong side of things. History is showcasing that she's not a good person and that's why people don't like her.

      The problem is she is very condescending, and rude, towards people that politically disagree with her. When she speaks on social and political issues half the time she doesn't know what she's talking about. She has a, "I'm holier than thou" attitude and she takes zero accountability in her role of why people dislike her. Amanda Seales is no victim and she wants people like you to throw a pity party for her.

Her voice is musical, informed and, again, brave. And I think she’s doing what the God’s have appointed her to do. My best friend is a Cancer and I’m a grounded Taurean.

She also has a nasty habit of making false accusations against people publicly like when she falsely accused Myron Rolle, a Harvard educated black doctor and former NFL player of sexual harassment. Amanda might be smart but she is not a good person.

How you all for the black community and stand up for out black women and men, and turned around and accused and destroyed a black man life. Accused him of sexually assault, abuse ect ect then offered an bullshit apology, because you got caught lying. Also its not you say it's how you say it. Her approach is always aggressive, and if you don't agree with her she gets very very aggressive and speak over people. Also every project she have been on it has always been a problem with her. At the end of the day, if you always in drama and drama follow you everywhere you go, then you are the problem point blank period. Alot of people don't want to deal with her, because they see how shit goes when she's around, so they choose to far away from her.

Experiencing gratitude and personal growth amidst grief is profound. Her ability to channel her grief into positive energy, empowering herself and others, is truly remarkable. It's a journey only understood once experienced. She's a special soul, transforming her grief into something extraordinary. And taking the responsibly to not bring children into a world that has not made it easy to be a mother or a child is actually a selfless act

    The problem with Amanda is that she fails to actually listen to WHY people do not like her and become likeable. She doesn't care to be a likable person. I see how she talks to people in her comment section. It turned me off just seeing it and I lost the little bit of respect I had left for her.
    It's likely that people stand with her message but just don't like HER.
    I used to be a brash person with pure intentions. I remember a friend telling me that I hurt their feelings and from that point I made it my business to consider my delivery because I cared about who I hurt.
    She has no desire to adjust b/c she's always right in her mind, it seems.

      There is another element to that. I don’t believe she is rude. She is passionate, confident and direct. If she was a man or spoke softly, there would be no problem.

    and there lies the problem "folks be bothered with me for no reason" - theres always a reason. you may not understand it, and it MAY have nothing to do with you and more so projection- amongst other internal struggles on those people behalf, but there is always a reason... and continuing to act as if it just came from an empty grocery bag is gaslighting...most people dont feel this way about Tamika and her whole life is dedicated to US....you dont have to care, and tbh you shouldnt, IF you have no desires of changing yourself or growing from others perspective views of you, its spiritually taxing, but to complain or to voice aloud is to some what care......
    shes not my cup of anything, not even my own spit to keep my mouth salivated BUT i clicked to give her a chance hoping shes done some self awareness after hearing peoples feedback because i will always support anyones advocacy work when it comes to our community, even if i dont support them as a individual in all other aspects BUT im a little glad she said this statement early so i dont have to sit through this interview of the same AS. i feel for her internal struggle,😢 the windows to her soul say a lot🥺, it makes me feel sad and i havent even had my lunch yet😓. still dont fk with her but its sad.

    People describe Amanda Seales as being a polarizing figure because she is an outspoken black woman. There have been black rappers or famous black men in America who have said or done some bad things whether it's toward women or people in general, but they are still well-liked. Those men don't receive any or little backlash from the things that they have said or done that some people may see as offensive. So this is sexism pure and simple.

    People didn't just decide not to like Amanda Seales. People didn't just wake up one day and say we don't like her. She's obviously very talented and intelligent. But its also obvious that she has a hard time dealing with people. And at some point she has to own that she's played a part in that.

    Thank you for loving Black people Ms. Seales! I'm sorry for your loss. Another perspective... Your public responses (in my anecdotal survey) are received as (intelligent, but) immature. You're missing the peace that usually comes from consistent practice and is reflective of expertise. You are brilliant and beautiful. It's my guess that if you were to step back and look at the ingredients (tools/resources you have) with peace, you would reflect that peace and see clearer. People need peace. Sending you encouraging love ❤
