The actress and broadcaster, best known for her role as Tahani Al Jamil in the critically acclaimed comedy The Good Place, made the comments during an episode of her podcast Jameela Jamil: Unfiltered, alongside TV personalities Blakely Thornton and Justin Timberlake. Talking about how she created the character, she said: “I was lucky enough to be a part of the show. The show was very well written and one of the lead writers on the show, Megan Amram, had just written Tahani’s shit, so we made her together. But I had to make her more ab****. They wanted her to be very cute. Americans think the British are cute, which is crazy because the British are literally the most evil people in history. They are they owe India $43 trillion.”
