She's the definition of "Everything I'm not made me everything I am". Proud of her
She has beautiful facial features and skin...Natural beauty.
Shes very intelligent and beautiful & Black .....Trick Daddy where you at!!?
Gemini Jones He wasnt talking about chicks like her obviously when you listen to what he said
Gemini Jones somewhere smoking weed and cocaine to cure his lupus
You guys are taking a guy named Trick Daddy waaay too seriously.
***** True true. Agreed
Trick gets a pass because he's an og.
I swear I live for the moments of her show when she's going off or rapping in the bathroom mirror. 😂😂😂
MzzPhattyPhatPhat right?! i loved when she was putting on the different lipstick colors before the club. the black lipstick personality was aggressive af! lol Pussy pot pie lol
I love Insecure, it's so fresh and I'm glad it got picked up for a second season. Congrats Issa.
She is freakin gorgeous.
1234JANA
I think her show should be called, "Insecure: But I Don't Give A F*CK"
Because throughout the show she's insecure but don't be caring at the same time lol.
Latoya Cook But really some women that have that idgaf attitude are really insecure on the inside
I believe its full name is Insecure as f*ck
Issa looks absolutely stunning. I'm so happy for her success!
Geneva Gordon same!I'm SO proud of her,she's so deserving of all the success that comes her way
Her smile is everything
Love her so damn fine and intelligent
Come on man
If you don't think she beautiful you crazy
She's gorgeous. I love her teeth and her smile.
Mr. Marshall the beautiful natural ones are overlooked tho
chris montgomery yes we are ....
Pretty cool to see Charlemagne go through the whole appreciating black women thing. You can tell wheels been turning in his head
yea it's interesting. he's trying lol
R_ M Naw that nigga loves his"Nubian White Queens" Ashe says.
lormisha He's married to a black woman though and been with her for many years. Y'all stay rolling on small comments ehh
we will see for how long
He appreciates her because she has something to appreciate. He drags reality stars, strippers, and the like. Issa clearly respects herself and he respects her naturally
She's Senegalese!!! West Africa representing, for real.
"damn i wish DJ Envy was in this interview"
-Nobody ever
Pharoah 07 envy would ruin this interview its perfect without it
Pharoah 07 I love eny's awkwardness..
Pharoah 07 😭 the interview went good without him. Angela Yee finally got to ask questions without being interrupted or rushed
wait hol'up haha shii, I didn't notice his absence till I read your comment lol.
RIGHT LOL
Envy normally be quiet in interviews unless somebody brings up cars or money.
Her skin is everything
she said she's an introvert and socially awkward I cant tell lol very outgoing personality and beautiful
Unfortunately you can't really be a true introvert in Hollywood, otherwise they will chew you up and spit you out. The media obligations must be the worst part of being an actor in a popular film/t.v show, especially if you're a genuine introvert.
Hedylogos Being a introvert just means you get your energy from solitude and prefer small crowds. So you can definitely be in Hollywood and be a introvert.
Bea H. How so? Because being on a tv or film set everyday around many people is far from ideal for an introvert. These film, t.v and music stars aren't just having to deal with a small handful of people, but instead many people from day to day.
Hedylogos I'm a introvert who has an inclination to the art and media scene. I love being working and getting to create with other brilliant people. I also like to be the center of attention for my art. However, outside of the art, I don't interact with many people on a personal level. So creatively, yes you could say I'm outgoing. But as whole person, relationally, total introvert.
sib this makes soooo much sense! That's how I've been feeling
Issa Rae!!! I clicked so fast when I saw her!
Steph lol me,too
Steph same lol
Would you eat it though?
Took too long for them to get her on here
Fuckyourcouch nigga
She has a amazingly symmetrical face. Goddamn beautiful.
"Insecure" & "Atlanta" are absolutely brilliant shows with young, TALENTED BLACK MEN & WOMEN. Those are just two recent shows too. Not to mention all the other tv programs that already exist & those on their way being produced by amazing black artist. Great time for black television!!
Love Issa Rae. Have been a supporter of hers for years! Makes me so happy to see her achieve this success, and get the appropriating backing too!
Rikuphi me too! im so proud of her ♡
I agree with her when she says tbc makes me care about people, I usually wouldn't...
Nicole Cooper so many facts lol
Nicole Cooper tru
Whats happenin cuzzin!
so true.
James Cooper skk
funny ass show...I love it....I literally laugh out loud several times. As a black person, it's very true to life too and relatable. I feel like I see this characters all the time in my daily life lol.
jabrown1978 that's exactly how I feel
jabrown1978 just watched it and was in tears.
No DJ Envy = No stupid questions!
Son of Yaiqab lol! 33 mins into this video.. just scrolling through the comments... didn't even notice he wasn't there til I read your comment lol
iamoliviafierce lol true dat
Son of Yaiqab
She so dope they didnt even bleep her curse words out.
Issa is the dopest!!! I'm reading her book now and it's awesome. Love her!
Oh and ratchetpiece theater is the funniest shit ever!! Lol
Ratchetpiece Theater needs to come back... i lived for it...hella funny.
Charlemagne low key sound like he in love sitting there staring at her wit shiny eyes like "damn a dark skin black woman that is normal awkward sarcastic smart and beautiful? Hmm.. what's the catch?"
Fool. lol But you're right, he was gazing at her hard though.
He has a wife and sits with beautiful black educated women all the time. Plus he's almost 40, he's been in enough Pussy, so he's able to just sit with a woman and talk.
Issa is beautiful
She is gorgeous! A good representation of young black women today, I wish her nothing but the best!
She is GORGEOUS. Her skin and teeth are everything and more. Blessings and more success to this Queen..
I love her. AND this insecurity in black women is not so much insecurity as is trying to be regular without SUPERwoman expectations.
Vonnie C yes, powerful statement!
Vonnie C so true we always have to be over educated to get an average job or run for Congress to prove we’re worth it
I've been a fan since Awkward Black Girl and to see her blow up like this is AMAZING
Me too. I love Awkward Black Girl
her voice reminds me of levita from the Steve Harvey show.. all I hear is ceddy 😂😂😂 but she's a talented, beautiful woman! love the show
lavita alize Jenkins Robinson...to be exact lol
Well I stand corrected
Dev One1 true lol
Dev One1 yesss
JourneysHeart ... love your screenname
My baby cousin is an extra on the show....she's having such a fun time! Issa is genuinely nice and FUNNY!👏👏👏👏
I FUCKING LOVE HER! It's crazy how much I relate to her, finally there's someone on tv that represents us regular black girls. Can't wait to see where the show goes❤️
Issa is so beautiful and real. I love her
I love Issa Rae. Her reaction to Trick Daddy... I damn near choked. HILARIOUS>
Charlemagne flirting and shit...tryna sound edumacated.
ALI JAMA You must be young.
OmegaMagnetic I'm a young nigga and even I knew that 😭
OmegaMagnetic 😂😂😂😂
lmao
lol!
This was great!!! I loved her face during the trick daddy audio! lol I love Issa!
That look was priceless lol.
MoGravy90 what minute?
Wow, so cool. we went to the same high school, and her father was my primary doctor when I was a kid. congratulations Jo issa.
yo, who was that with the "geese" analogy?! LMFAO that shit was epic.
K Hood yessssss!! I was like - who is this guy? I need to meet him personally.
She had the BEST reply to the Trick Daddy post!!!!
She's Beautiful.
love her personality! she's the coolest! her show is dope too!
"I'm always uncomfortable." Same Issa Rae same lol
I remember Watching her Awkward Black Girl and just knowing she would make it big.. i am BEYOND proud... looking flawless and slimming down, ISSA RAE IS WINNING
When she said her mom be waking her in the middle of the night to do dishes😂😂😂😂. So true. Love this girl❤️❤️❤️
Im so proud of her, I use to watch her on youtube.
Been watching this babe since Awkward Black Girl! Love her!
Issa is gorgeous, her skin is flawless
She's so beautiful and relatable! #BlackGirlMagic ✨Her skin is so poppin
I just died hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha. Issa said who gonna tighten up for trick daddy lmao
been rocking with her since awkward black girl
I'm so glad she said Vanessa from The Cosby Show. Vanessa was my favorite but she was always hated on.
I love her so much. Good to see that Charlamagne showed respect for her. Issa might be the most important Black show runner (over DG and Shonda) because her depictions of Black life are the most realistic and non-stereotypical I've ever seen on TV. Good to see People of color that aren't portrayed as "cool", "strong/badass"', or "victimized." Incredible time right now for the representation of Black people in film/tv.
She is my fav, I have been a fan since Awkward Black Girl...I would be at work, not working but watching her videos.
Finally! Thank you Charlamange to be nice and respectfull to our black sister this time...She deserve all the respect! I really like her personality and looks
This is one of the rare interviews that all 3 members of TBC aren't there and the interview has a great flow and dynamic. Issa Rae is the shit.
Her complexion is just beautiful.
Well, this is the first breakfast club interview that I pushed the like button for lol.
I love her smile
So tired of seeing comments with these black "men" in their feelings concerning her new show. She isn't bashing at all... simply showing the guy she dates and his struggles along with her bestie dating life and her struggles.... Get over yourselves so called "men"... if you're a real one then you know this show doesn't apply to you.... simple!
IKR!! and some how they don't get mad when almost every tv show or movie represents black women in a stereotypical way!!
Lubna hussein exactly!! they sit back and bash black women for being bitter, angry, or "ratchet" when they see us doing that on shows.... smh
Cause they're guilty and can relate to him.
miya Me Truth nation!
I swear they over hear crying a river. What Issa should've did was have her boyfriend in the show try to become a rapper then that ish would've really hit home for the soft ass "men".
Listening to This interview felt so organic
No one ever says Charlemagne talks like a white person.
lmao
but he bleaches .
I bet he wishes he did tho
Brenande Mossita I was wondering how he felt he related...not saying skrenth
"Skrong", "Skreets" "skrength"??? Yea okay Charlamagne...
"19, Female, Cali"
😂😂😂😂😂😂
THIS IS SO RELATABLE!
J M 19femalecali
Smart, talented, beautiful smile, flawless skin, great interview
I am completely obsessed with INSECURE! Super proud of Issa Rae, for her perseverance... you did that!
Been a fan of Issa Rae since 2011 when Awkward Black Girl premiered. I am so proud & truly inspired by her success! It goes to show how hard work, dedication & drive pay off. Loving Insecure! Wishes her major success!
Issa, I binge watched your show (all four seasons) in two days. It was like nectar. You are just the most talented, lovely person. THANK YOU!!
Me too! I found this when I really needed it! What a weekend.
It feels good to see her get the recognition she's deserved for years. I've watched Issa since the VERY beginning. I knew she had a special kind of black girl magic going on! Congrats on everything! Misadventures of an Awkward black girl is hilarious in case anyone hasn't seen it. Make sure you start from the beginning.
Issa speaks to me so much every episode I've seen so far makes me say omg that's me or I do that too
Her show is f@>kin dope. It's like the black version of "Girls". 🤔it's actually better than girls
Girlfriends?
I love Issa and her show! She is sooo relatable. If you don't know her, go and watch Awkward Black Girl on youtube...you will love it. Especially if you are a black woman who's dating and whatnot.
Yess! This was a good interview. She's really blowing up, so happy for her!
Ashley Johnson you’re stunning ❤️
SHE IS SO BEAUTIFUL‼️💃🏾🌹💯👏👍😊 I LOVE TO SEE BLACK PEOPLE BECOME SUCCESSFUL IN MAINSTREAM✊🏽HBO😳🤗 WOW😄 ABOUT TIME THEY TAKE NOTICE😏 THERE'S ALOT OF TALENTED PEOPLE OF COLOR THAT GOES UNNOTICED SO THIS IS ABSOLUTELY REWARDING TO SAY THE LEAST❗️❕"YOU DESERVE IT!" In my Future's voice🏆

Issa, thank you for showing black women being "regular" human.
The longer I look at this interview the more I realize how fucking beautiful she is!!!!! She has such a beautiful color. idk if I'm in awe of her or her MUA for blending so flawlessly and highlighting her features. lol! Sorry I'm an MUA

Kadriye Buyuk Damn I'm 25 minutes in and I just realized that 😂😂😂
