Her facial beauty is eye-catching and her comedy is intelligent and memorable.
Indonesia and Southern Philippines are proud ✨Muslim countries …jus sayin’…..I just found Zainab’s “Hijabs Off “and I’ve watched it 5 times in January 2024..still rewatching it👍🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾🌟💥🔥
I love all types of comedy, but storytelling is my favorite.
I first saw Zainab in the Amazon Prime Video series “Upload” and remember thinking: wow, she’d be a great comedian! It turns out that she’s *been* a great comedian!
I smiled troughout this interview. The gems, the funny, the melanin, the principles, the intelligence, the depth, the grace. Joy.
Been watching since she opened with her name as the punch line… love her on Upload too, very underrated
Not just your face but also your tone. You are sooo funny
She's definitely both a very beautiful and intelligent individual!!
She is special. Wonderful.
I just saw Zainab for the first time last night and I couldn’t stop watching her videos! Absolutely HILARIOUS!! I’m looking forward to seeing you live!! 💝🙏🏾🌹
Zainab Johnson is my new favorite comedienne!!
Absolutely ❤ HER , her presence AND her story. Just stunning all round Masha'Allah!!!
She is very classy and intelligent. She reminds me of Kari Washington? Am i the only one? I feel like they could be sisters..

I can see and hear that
I can definitely see her playing Diana Ross in a Biopic. Not just the asthetic but I think she has the capability of capturing her whole essence. She is a very talented woman. Bravo!👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
She is beautiful unique but intelligent comedy. She has the same intelligence as Dave Chappelle. Its smart.
She could have easily became a model or actress. Easy.but she’s actually funny and I love her as a comedian bc obviously she’s easy on the eyes but also funny, humble n relatable
Zainab is an Icon in the making.
ZAINAAAAAAABBBBBBBBBUUUHHH!!!!!!!❤❤❤❤❤👋🏽👋🏽👋🏽👋🏽👋🏽👋🏽👋🏽👋🏽❤❤❤❤❤
Love her on the Amazon show: Upload!
I love that you are down to earth funny. Natural funny is better than trying to be funny.
Loooved this interview
so intelligent, so genuine and beautiful. Excellent interview
I remember when she performed on the reboot of the Arsenio Hall show. She is so funny. I enjoyed her special too
Great interview! So glad she spoke to the racism within the Islamic religion/faith/community. The anti-Blackness is baked into the community although Black/African people are at the foundational core of the faith. Same can be said for most of the organized/westernized/easternized faith traditions.
Zainab is funny and pretty. She looks a lot like Dawn Richard.
Peace & Blessings!!!
Toure, what a wonderful Show!! I’m so glad I found you! Thank You for doing what you do💝🙏🏾🌹
Zainab drops gems!
I got to see her live in LA and it was really fun. Love her Amazon special too.
This girl is comedy gold!!!!❤❤
Love my chocolate sisters!
Love her♥️❤️💕
She has spoken as a woman that comes from a lot of siblings. I completely understand her. I have 7 siblings.
Love her
Now I love my name......

As you should. Rocking our name is part of rocking. Period.
If they ever do a movie about Diddy, she should play Kim Porter
Zainab is clearly a very strong empath. This is amazing. It was absolutely clear early on, but for sure by 23:44.
Love you Z you are right where you supposed to be. You was always funny from a youth💯💯☑️ H world.MCSM stand up😎
Zainab Johnson ❤
Already from the intro I think I get it. So many people tell me I am funny and I just don't see it. At least not in the times they think I am being funny. But maybe it is in my face LOL. I mean I think I am being ironic or perhaps a bit facetious... I have been told I should be a commedian but at the that was also well over 20 years ago.
Expressions can tell whatcha really feel occasionally. I'll checkout her comedian craft.
It's like trying to explain the internet to your great grandparents, lol
Now, I'm going to go check out Yamaneika Saunders. 🚶🏿♀️

Another wildly funny human being.
❤❤❤❤❤

Close your eyes, she sound like Thelma from Good Times
Why not be a comedian and a model? Unless she's plainly disinterested in that. In today's world it's best to wear many hats for different sources of income
#itsnotaboutwhatyoulooklike
So comical how all this tech is suppose to make communication easier, but it be making basic human communication as confusing as fu... lol
Yes. Why texting sucks for jokes, they can't see you laugh or have look, so they think your serious, you get the hate texts, you like what the fuc. , then you fingers burning trying to correct the sit, then then they pop, off , with something rude, you be like you didn't have to go there, so now you mad, lol, you fuc. This bit.. anyway, lol, then one or both block each other for a week or so until you ain't bad, then neither one wants to admit you been on block lol , I go though this on a bi monthly basis with my besty, by now the hole thing comical.
