She really has such and sweet and golden soul and so full of life ✊🏾‼️ like when she talks it’s like she acting she’s so passionate when she talks and puts like in her words.

She's the reason I will neverrrrrr play with a woman's feelings...

Lynn can "get it now and back then" She has a wonderful spirit. #sheaintlyinthough😉

[@P121-27]

Aw yes brother

[@TREm1990]

Met her at a workshop. She is VERY intimidating and I don't get intimidated by ANYONE. She gave me some good acting advice and a good ass coach. Love you Mrs. Whitfield!❤️❤️😉

[@jacquelinehorton5041]

I watch this interview so many times. I just love her energy. Would love to see her in a vulnerable role being heartbroken. She makes me cry

[@TheRAH1]

32:53 “I don’t think I’ve ever been called a liar in public. I love it...the familiarity ☺️” how you check someone with class and maturity. They got real respectful real quick. 😂

[@IMADIVA1127]

I have to use that lol

[@sharecadorsey7246]

Yes. That was so disrespectful. I was brought up to say “you telling a story” to an elder. Never use the word “lie”.

[@yungheat84]

You’re twisting it... that made her feel very human and down to earth with her people.. you know she’s very deep in the Hollywood world where people are normally kissing ass or not telling the truth... that’s why she said (familiarity )

[@deem132]

Gathered her!

[@TheRAH1]

Kiing milli you’re hearing the words and ignoring tone and body language.

[@crenshawgrinder2515]

She is the type of woman that you show respect to automatically. We should respect all women though.

I would totally love to see Lynn Whitfield in a Sci-fi movie. Can we get a petition started for at least a casting in some Black Mirror episodes?

[@EbsKnows]

She would be great in a dystopian society, running the show, letting people starve, etc lol.

Yes! She could portray a perfect villain of that sort.

[@HH-gv8mx]

Why did Charlemagne say that white people love /obsessed with touching black people's hair? Wtf is he talking about? I had black friends all throughout grade school, High school and college and dated black men and never once can remember ever touching anyone's hair. Feel like it was the opposite. In fact I just had a Haitian man beg to touch my hair just recently. Thought it was odd but I let him.

For some reason I thought Lynn Whitfield was in her 40's..I had no idea she was 65!!! But I do know she is playing the Hell out of her character on Greenleaf and it seems to fit her real life personality.

I did not know this either, but she looks so much younger.
