She's so much more confident in interviews now

[@juliemills2032]

She has faith now😀

Julie Mills faith?

[@juliemills2032]

@@GeorgetheGreat the commentor's name is Faith. So I said she has faith in herself now

WHY CANT MY SKIN AND TEETH BE AS PERFECT AS HERRRRS ughhhhhh she’s just so damn aesthetically pleasing to look at. Like girl needs to share some of her damn beauty

[@deepblack2193]

I know i'd die if i had no makeup on tv but jorja is just effortless beauty

If you ain’t got a pretty face, you need to compensate. Go the gym 😁

[@therealvsfake]

her teeth are fake, she's got veneers and likely botox....

[@anaeyoi4490]

she said in an interview that her skin comes from her mother so her skin is genetic, idk about her teeth tho, maybe braces? natural?

[@AC-bo2yl]

No makeup and she’s still peng 🤤

[@elisebrennan-smith9788]

she's clearly wearing makeup

She hasn't got makeup on but on another note what are those bubble trainers called that she's got on ?

The difference between this interview in the UK and the other recent one in the US is wild

[@elisenefernandes5735]

Lucy Wright in the US they made it bare awkward and put loads of pressure on her for no reason

[@johnbuxton4484]

Was just thinking that man, the hot 97 crew act like 14 year olds

[@mud222millie]

omg i literally said the same thing!!

[@MariaRojas-pw8mr]

US were speaking to her very uncomfortably talking to her based of stereotypes and oversexualization. It was quite uncomfortable to watch them speak, I don’t believe that has anything tot do with her media training. You can tell she was not feeling them & they kept talking over her having their own conversation. So obnoxious to watch for Jorja fans that just wanted a little more insight on her & her life perspectives

[@malin434]

wish she didn’t have to go through that, couldn’t even get through the interview

[@ephascus8974]

Not being weird or that but I just like staring at her

If you look for jorja smith walsall on youtube you'll find a video of her singing in Aldridge uniform in the crown wharf with this guy from Queen Mary's (who's the brother of someone I went to school with). It's a small world 😱
