Issa Rae on Emmy Nomination for 'Insecure' & Betty White Backlash

[@ThatLadyDray]

In case people aren't aware, she started on KZbin ALL on her OWN producing what lead her to HBO. I share this 1- to acknowledge her grind & 2- as an example that there's more than ONE way to get your goals accomplished

[@NellieKAdaba]

Great to know

[@darkangel20403]

YEP, she created "the Misadventures of Awkward Black Girl" on KZbin!

[@robertstanley9633]

Yes yes yes! I smile everytime her face or name comes up cos once upon a time she had a KZbin series which she uploaded once a week and Ive never watched something so relatable and transparent regardless of sex, age, gender etcetc. Im so happy for her continued success and she hasnt changed one bit 🙌🏽 shine bright Issa Rae 💕

[@TheProgressReport]

Respect

[@thagreatfrank3071]

So many people don't understand or even see or acknowledge all the hard work people put into getting where they want to be in life!

[@idoflawlesshair]

Issa is GORGEOUS and baby that skin is glowing!

[@jasonbythe7262]

I just posted the same thing. She's beautiful

[@kingconscience.1597]

Issa's skin is perfection. She's so pretty in a natural way. She doesn't need much. And her appeal is the fact that I don't think she even realizes her potential, physically. Her skin is such velvety chocolate goodness!!! ✊🏽✊🏾✊🏿

[@tootsla1252]

LaDiva DeJour That skin!! What is it? It's just a beautiful color and so flawless.

[@kparm23]

That is so well said lol, it explains it perfectly! She is really really pretty!

[@thagreatfrank3071]

I'm on an Issa Rae interview binge and I've noticed that she gets all the tonight show host's to hysterically laugh and sort of "break" their composure. She's amazing af

[@capricornwoman6726]

Me too!😂

I'm on a roll now too 😹

I didn't know her dad was Senegalese:)

[@shadowspond3488]

I agree! I love her show

[@jayJ857]

And the fact that its a genuine smile. Like she didn't pay for fake teeth.

[@c.c.benfield1630]

after QUEEN ANGELA OF COURSE

[@islandgirlruby2750]

She exudes beauty and confidence.

[@maatspear]

Her story about her hitting her head at a party is so like a scene on her show and hee character on it!

[@shanasteele6894]

Marcus Atkins Yess! Exactly what I thought 😂😂😂

[@kathyannalexander4506]

Issa should have won the emmy in my opinion.. insecure is such an original show

[@ronasia9323]

@The Real Tamartian rachel did last year

[@AvastJackSparrowrox7]

MELANATED TV nah she didn’t it was her first emmy win . The only other category she was nominated for was guest actress on house of cards and she lost. maybe you’re thinking of them going against each other in the golden globes where rachael won

[@highlyfavored2434]

I watched all seasons in a day after a friend recommended it.. awesome show, cast and story lines

[@nkrose283]

Panini I think she’s getting backlash from her “I’m rooting for all black people” comment

[@kya7566]

@@nkrose283 why would she recieve backlash for saying that?

[@RonandHerm]

I love Issa Rae fashion and hair. Too gorgeous

[@AshleyArieeArchive]

Glowing skin, poppin & relatable personality, and a simple yet elegant hairstyle ✊🏾😍. Issa Rae is a true queen

[@haute03]

That camera man was shady af lmao.

[@thehoneyeffect]

haute03 probably a trump supporter

[@TonyVisciardi]

The camera man doesn't decide what goes on air. That's the director that said, "...go to camera 3...". Camera man was just filming what was there in the spot he was at. Director called for that to go on air.

[@kathyannalexander4506]

Right? And just say betty white aint God

[@JoeCnNd]

@@thehoneyeffect honey get some help. Everything doesn't revolve around Donald Trump when stuff happens.

I need this whole outfit down to the shoes. Love it. And Issa is hilarious. Love Insecure. Been a fan since ABG! 💜

[@kudabeen]

Trying to figure out what ms. Maisel is and why I haven't heard one peep about it until Emmy's

[@CecileVeillard]

It's actually a great show. I wish Insecure had won, but at least the winner wasn't a trash show - people should check out Marvelous Mrs. Maisel it's also excellent.

[@kudabeen]

@@CecileVeillard will do

[@coronaflo]

That is probably because it is on Amazon Prime which hasn't got the coverage as Netflix.
