The way she adjusted to the rather…boring audience, was masterful.
This! "Anyway, what about this is one!" 😂
The crowd is always lame AF at these awards lmao writers on some extra introverted ish
Yes! Love her. 🖤
This crowd was giving her nothing. Boo this crowd!
Love the way she laughed at her own jokes. For a crowd of writers these ppl were dry. Explains the writing on a lot of these shows.
Exactly. I’ve never watch more old shows.
😂😂😂😂😂😂
She rolled with the weird vibe of the room well 😂😂😂
They were writers.

Nice to know we've found our next Oscars host. Janelle stays cracking me up!
YES!!!! SHES BRILLIANT!!!
hey butterfly is one of my fav albums from her!!1
This was terrific. Great jokes, delivery, and improv, even for a very flat crowd. Hope Janelle James hosts and performs in more shows!!
They don't deserve her, she's hilarious. Jeremy Allen White joke killed me because he is a short king for real
Right! Loved him on Shameless ❤️Just now watching The Bear, because of ptsd from 2 decades in foodservice!😩No lies told on this show!
Janelle was having fun, and we love to see it.
You can tell this queen is real deal. Very comfortable in her own skin and not a typical Hollywood phony. She is who she is and you like her or you don't. She deserves all the success that comes her way. 👏👏👏👏👏
That last joke was honestly hilarious. She worked with the crowd and overall vibe so well
She's so hilarious, she should host Golden Globes and the Oscar next year.
10:39 her comedy skills are legit she’s everything
oh my God...this woman's timing is a thing of beauty
She absoutley KILLED this
Janelle James, makes me cry and laugh so hard that she deserves to be called the incomparable
She truly is brilliant. I love her! Comedic genius work
Excellent!!! Gorgeous, smart and funny and her giggle is too cute.
Janelle James killed this!👏🏽 👏🏽👏🏽
She is phenomenal. I can listen to her all day.
Ms. James does not disappoint. Funny!
Janelle killed it!!! And I loved how she was laughing at her own jokes 🤣🤣
Why is the audience so uptight lol she was hilarious
Maybe they were all mad because of the strike? Or maybe most network television is so deeply unfunny because their writers are humorless? Who knows?
She’s literally so freaking funny that crowd was so boring 😭😭
This woman is so funny. Just amazing delivery.
I didn’t think the audience was that bad… they were consistently laughing. It’s about what I’d expect for a room full of generally socially awkward writers haha… it’s not like this was a damn Netflix special crowd…
That is very true. I wasn’t thinking about that part at all.
The crowd looks like people who don’t even watch their own shows lol. But Janelle had me rolling😅
Janelle James is hilarious! She looks fabulous. 😊
Love her hair❤
That wig is laiddddd
Haha this woman is amazing, bet she is a hoot to hang out with. The way she just goes with the flow is so epic.
A real comedian. She can read the crowd
You go Ms. James! Can’t wait for you to host and get nominated for an/ the EGOT!🦋 “Y’all don’t that one? Anyway what about this one HAHA”🤣
I absolutely love her dry humor.
This woman is a hoot and a gr8 comic, she needs to host any of the big awards soon
She ain't never lied....... This show has been out for a nice little minute and I'm just now binging it. I'm finally caught up 😁 A+ SHOW!
She's incredible, so of-the-moment. Have her host a Golden Globes❤
We love you Janelle James‼️
She is such a 💎
Dry ass crowd pftt 💨
The random laugh in the crowd at 6:45 😂😂😂😂

THAT CONAN OBRIEN DROP WAS THE HARDEST BAR
It was so savage 🤣
That was epic! She went decades deep!
I love her jokes so much and the way she shifts from joke to joke even if they don’t land. 😂
I aspire to work any eoom with such ease as this. Wow. Amazing!

The only thing running longer than Tom Cruise is Greys Anatomy 🤣🤣🤣
9:50 If you've never seen the video of Webbie doing his promo recording for The Breakfast Club, you won't understand why I had to pull myself together at this timestamp. 🤣🤣🤣
I want to see her do this all day every day. A gem.
Janelle James, comedic genius.
YAY Janelle
THESE WRITERS ATTITUDES , NO WONDER TVS NOT FUNNY THESE DAYS !!! JANELLE JAMES IS ONE OF THE FUNNIEST OUT THERE
FLESHLIGHT !!!
Flash light shooting 200 times
She’s so goddamn funny 😂😂😂😂
My cousin is the best so proud of you Janelle
She’s such a beautiful woman inside n out very funny…
Love her to pieces!
I was cackling over here. From tom cruise on. The James Cordon one killed me.
I really like her!!!
After the 2024 Globes, came back here to watch how a comedian can really smash it out of the park
Love her❤❤❤👏👏👏🔥🔥🔥
wow.. she is amazing.
Janelle James is Hilarious!
She’s perfect
She’s so fucking real.
Im in tears that's all that matters 😆 🤣
"Y'all wild for that one!" "I wanted to say domestic abuse in the building cause it hits harder." LOL Her comedic timing is wonderful. I also admire her professionalism as she was met with an extremely dry crowd. The level of discomfort as she spoke from her perspective (black woman, actor, writer) was disappointing though. I absolutely love how she can laugh at herself. That's something that a lot of people could stand to learn how to do. She killed this opening!
This was amazing omg
She is comfortable with awkwardness.
The phrase "Fleshlight! I messed up the joke" should be repeated often and always out of context.
Awesome I love her
Love herrrrrr
I love her!!!😅😅😅😅
The joke about free trails is 💯
i just love her she makes Abbott elementary!!!!
Smooth and well done. I love you!!😂😂😂
Her somewhat monotoney delivery somehow really works.
Watching her fun delivery and seeing the crowds reaction gave me an epiphany. It makes a lot of sense why Hollywood current writers long climate is so dull, everyone is so boring and dry omg
This is fucking hilarious, she did amazing
She’s fucking brilliant!!! 😂😂😂💀💀💀
Omg she did greatttt😂😂
This woman is hysterical kills me every time
"Speaking of blaaaack!!" I cant w/ her! 😂
"The first time black ppl colonized yt ppl shyte!"!😂😂
she's so good!!
Wow, this crowd does not deserve Janelle James because this was hilarious.
I need to see more of her in other projects, too funny.
She is hilarious 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I. Love. Her.
Crowd was defo dead, but I was smiling/laughing the whole way through.
Amazing!
