Jameela Jamil is an interesting character. She flawlessly plays a lovable narcissist on NBC’s The Good Place but she’s also carved out a space for herself as a social media vigilante, regularly calling out brands, celebrities, and reality stars for potentially problematic behavior, including the relentless promotion of diet teas and unrealistic body image. This week, Jameela is characteristically candid—including about her so-called beef with the Kardashians, her own struggles with disordered eating, spending all her money during her 20s on good food and Chanel, her love of online shopping, and the truly shocking thing she did to make sure she didn’t get fired from The Good Place.
