Quinta Brunson on ‘Abbott Elementary’ Success, How A Breakup Fueled Her & More | Emerging Hollywood

She’s such a real person with an authentic rise to celebrity. Love Quinta!!
Like she earned that place !!!
I don’t hate nepotism and its beneficiaries but its so refreshing seeing people who are actually self made.
They are def more authentic
“Self made” by her family and teachers…which she wonderfully acknowledges..they and more made her able to be “Self-made”/independent and interdependent (how she does such a great job creating and working with a team) ultimately after being quite dependent first . Abbot is so much about “The Village” that creates us and not so much about individualism which i appreciate.
I love that she said she doesn’t want to tackle important issues off the bat. Like myself I want to tell stories, like my comic, that are fantasy or sci-fi. The important messages will naturally show up
Thanks for making teachers and teaching real.
I love Quinta!! I've loved her since" he got moneyyyyy"!! 😂😂😂 Abbott Elementary is my favorite show right now! ☀️❤️
So glad CthaG has been hyping up the show on the Breakfast Club! I’m pulling for Quinta💪🏾 I first saw her on A Black Lady Sketch Show and I instantly became a fan. I had wondered what happened to her in the 2nd season. I was so excited when I found out that she had created Abbott Elementary! I watch every week and I am pulling for much success for her!!
This the queen right here forreal I love her man I hope she really take off after Abbot
My family and I love Abbot Elementary!!!
Great show!!! Congratulations Quinta!!! Great interview!!!
Great conversation
I love this woman! She’s so adorable and she shattered the perception of what beauty is. She’s fine, funny, intelligent, and have an amazing heart! My crush 🥰😍
Loving the JW discourse. I was also raised a JW, but I knew at 16 years old, it was not for me.
I was raised JW, but never got baptised.Its not 4 me either. But it's rough growing up in it, I respect it but not for me.
@@Getitgirlllll4717 I was also never baptized. The lifestyle is definitely a strict lifestyle. One of my best friends was baptized at 10. She's is now disfellowshipped and married to her wife. Quinta's points about the structure being beneficial as a safety net, and the disconnect with holidays also resonated for me.
@@thesmileyeffect I agree right, the structure is beneficial and we were raised w/great morals and values, respecting our elders,and so many other things,etc. Bad association spoils useful habits that def. Still sticks w me today which I appreciate. But It's a lot pressure esp when your are a kid and that pressure and guilt applied that people dnt realize affect you. Like I jst turned 40 last week and my dad still trying to get my brother and I to convert I'm jst like stop! It's not right 4 me but I respect it!
I am her. She is me. I remember thinking at 12 I knew this is was what I wanted for my life… needless to say I’m on the run like her 🤣🤣🤣
@@PrincessAmmanii girl, every year I decline my mother's Memorial invite. She is never going to give up. I even remember being introduced to a woman when I was a teenager who had left and returned. Looking back it feels like it was a not so subtle way to try and encourage me to stay. I was so ready to go!
I love everything about her! The culture needs Quinta!
She could Sherri Shepard's mini me......... almost. Kudos. U Rock!!! YOUR stares are EVEREE'THING❗❗❗❗😊😊😅
All the way from buzzfeed!
I love Quinta! She is a great talent and creator! Shout for remembering the Bob Newhart Show, I always loved his show. 👋🏾 LOVE Abbott Elementary 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾🔥🔥🔥❤ Great interview Charlemagne ✊🏾
This was soon awesome; Love her. The whole conversation was enjoyable. She reminds me a little bit of Issa Rea we need more like them; SO PROUD !!! 😍😍
Love that she admits to depression and describes it so well and acknowledges others helped her.I like the way the interviewer asks about early childhood and how she gets through tough times.
Who's the Fool tht broke her heart??? She's a beautiful soul. I was 😥 she only did one season of The Black Lady sketch show. Please if you can do both shows we wouldn't be mad... She is freshingly funny 😄 😆 🤣 Love
This was such a fantastic interview 💜😂💜💜💜
I wanna know what Paul Rudd said 😆
I definitely has to go back an watch Abbott Elementary from the beginning. And I loved her doing "black lady sketch" comedy show
This was a great interview 🙂
I love Quinta! I've been a fan since her buzzfeed years. Keep winning 👏👏👏
Quinta n Issa leaders of the new school
Damn I’m the youngest of 5 to . 32 and they’re much older also
Really enjoyed this! I loved Quinta’s Buzzfeed content & of course the “he got moneeey” bit now Abbott is my fav new show! What a trajectory!
Remember her from VINE days! I really love this for her
Quinta is amazing and I have not laughed so hard at a tv like I do when I watch Abbott Elementary!!! Side note: Charlemagne know he can act a fool when interviewing folks so I don’t know why he’s acting surprised. I wrote him off when I saw The Breakfast Club interview with Lil Mama. I only watched this because of Quinta.
Love this show! Great Interview..
Now I see why Bruce Almighty was important to her and she appreciates her costar so much.
Personally it was heartwarming and soul affirming for me to watch multiple characters and dynamics of Black people. And the show is funny ah. Glad you made it!
Philadelphia is so proud of you Quinta💗
Love love love this show! This was such a great interview!
I’m sooo proud of you Quinta
I love the farm idea on plenty of acres! 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

I love this. So inspiring
Amazing interview. She is so refreshing and genuine
Loved this!
What a great interview! I loved the questions and hearing more about Q's life as a Jehovah's Witness child in Philly . Great questions from the interviewer. Loved the rapport. Terrific!
PHILLY CHICKS SO AWESOME
What a wonderful interview! Hoping to see this show go the long haul.❤❤❤
Side note: Everytime the music comes on I think my son is crying😅
Quinta Brunson and Sheri Shepard have a striking resemblance.
Bruce Almighty my top 10 favorite movie!!! 🙏🏼💥✨
I love her so much. I feel like she is my spirit person of a celebrity.
Love her. Love Abbot Elementary AND I am SO glad she got OUT of the JW grip. Just imagine if she hadn’t.
Great interview!
