Literally what I was going to comment. Makes him more of a relatable person and honestly makes me like him more that he has insecurities just like the rest of us. I wish him nothing but the best in whatever he decides to do in the future 🥰
Parts of this interview made me kind of sad but I hope Kelon realizes that he really is amazing, far beyond the Terriverse. I think a lot of artists struggle with seeing their self worth beyond their craft or specific things they're known for though. But I think even if Terri didn't exist, he'd eventually find another medium that would portray how funny and unique he is and still get the attention and payout he deserves. We love you Kelon. ♥♥♥
absolutely, i feel like some comedians are born and some don't find themselves until they turn into the personalities that are in their head, after seeing his real personality as kelon very nonchalant about 'stuff' its easy for him to not gaf when he ends a live with someone abruptly or when he mocks someone else and does it all with no regrets. I do hope he doesn't feel the need to be terri joe all the time to feel alive irl or to please ppl.....i can see more and more lately its annoying for him that ppl are calling his jeorgia peach and amoura rose characters terri joe and not addressing him as the character he is, everything is about terri joe and its kind of annoying as a viewer too. Even the guy in this podcast only really addressing terri
@@sheznezthank u for saying that. U took the words out of my mouth. I was thinking the same because I feel like he’s still trying to find himself but having terry joe around just shows this part of him that is not all him. And people just see him as terry joe but not kelon when they need to see him as terry, Georgia and kelon. (Idk if u understand, English is not my first language)☺️
I think it’s just the awful questions these d grade youtubers are asking. They are asking him questions like he works in the IT department. Seriously they don’t even realise they are speaking to an artist
@@TheseStreetsReportseah on h3 it was same thing like trying to coach him in business- of course he wants to make money but he doesn’t want to be trapped in contracts or doing things he doesn’t want to do and sell out his genius. even if he never does anything but what he’s already doing it’s freaking amazing- there’s such a capitalist mindset that tends to come in and try to monetize everything above all else, but that’s why so many genuine things get ruined. no one that loves kelon wants to see that happen to his stuff!
@@Aminaoui Isn’t he 27? If so it’s quite literally in limbo between where Millennials end and Gen Z starts. People in that in between can swing between either or tbh.
I would LOVE to se him move one and expand to different platforms but I believe it would be incredibly difficult to translate Terri Joe out of the current TikTok format. The live banter, the various characters, other people, it just gives it that special UMPF.
Fr I could feel very freaking down and wanting to drown on bed all day, but it just takes a clip of one of his characters to literally make me smile and laugh like nothing is happening in my life. He's just so good at what he does that it really inspires me.
@@vhardt840 he’s the only person that makes me wheeze with laughter honestly . The internet doesn’t really do dark humor much anymore because of how sensitive society is but the fact that that’s mainly what his characters do is so refreshing and hilarious
I’m a 30-year-old gay man and I can relate to Kelon so much, it’s crazy. Not really caring about anything, hating work, not being very ambitious or driven, but having a big imagination and a desire to exercise my creativity. Also having a relatively undefined personality, one crafted by observing others and taking on the traits you find desirable and/or advantageous for your own survival. My theory is that this stems from being made aware of the fact that I was different from a very young age, and so deciding early on that I couldn’t express myself freely for fear of being judged or ostracized by others. This made me feel very isolated as a kid, even while I’m naturally very sociable, because I felt like I could never fully be myself around others, and it became exhausting to put on an act. I see a lot of myself in how Kelon describes himself, so I would bet he has a similar story. Thankfully I have a bustling social life now with friends who love me for me, and I’m glad to hear that Kelon has found that too and has found a way to express his creativity through Terri Jo and his other characters. I’ve been on a Psyiconic binge lately, and it’s easy to see that Kelon is an absolute comedic genius within that medium. I cannot wait to see what he does next.
I’ve been watching Kelon since he had 500 viewers on TikTok . His fan based has grown like crazyyyyyy the past year and I’m so so soooo happy to see him on a big podcast. Soooo well deserved!!!
Kelon‘s humbleness is so admirable. You can tell how he never sought out fame, it just happened. His personality is so relatable and sweet. So much more than his characters. He is definitely going somewhere!❤️
Super talented. I tell my husband that he could be on SNL, actor, or a writer. He’s hilarious, humble, really smart. I hope he gets everything he wants I also have really hard days so when he comes on a lot of that stress goes away. So thank you Kelon. 🤗
I know you mean well, but SNL seems to always degrade great icons to run of the mill comedians. Kelon is a gay icon, and gay icons make their own spaces.
kelon’s personality wasn’t what i expected and i realized he’s really like me. when he talked about how he felt like he was just existing and don’t know his emotions that well i really felt that. ive gained huge respect for him
The questions are so one-dimensional when you compare them to the type of person that Kelon truly is… He’s truly a special, talented man with his own ‘verse’ of his own curated characters! WE LOVE YOU, KELON!
It was hard to watch what a weird interviewer like he’s trying to dissect him and question him so deeply about who he is and why he’s funny like what? 😂
@@ladyoftheamazon lol I agree, cringeworthy. Like grade school assignment type of prep work. Instead of reading word for word questions off a piece of paper, they should only use that as a framework of where they want the interview to go, but instead they tried to do too much with the outta place “deep” questions. Like reaching. Instead of putting him at ease and actually listening and working off the vibes. This was bland and lacking on their part unfortunately. What a missed opportunity
@@almondmilklatte2001 for real like “so is Terri Joe your imaginary friend? Does she live within the 4 corners of your padded wall? Do we need to up the dosage of your pills?” It was giving intake at a mental hospital interview 😂
He honestly sounds so depressed in the beginning. I recognize the affect, I know he was anxious and not the most comfortable…but there’s something underneath this that feels deeply sad. He deserves the joy he gives his audience, very talented.❤️🩹
As someone with panic attacks and severe anxiety daily, I can tell you he has high levels of anxiety like I do. I don't come across many . I can see the depression but chronic anxiety for sure.
i like how kelon didn’t allow himself to be put in a box- being asked if he’s an actor or comedian… those are just labels. he’s having fun being him and making bank! we celebrate that! terri joe is iconic!!!
I love how Kelon is being so real about the randomness and “chance” aspect of popularity and that literally gags ppl. I think lots of celebs play into the press of themselves and create this fan fare but literally are just bullshitting and have no idea what’s happening. I hope Kelon doesn’t lose that but also secures his bag. ❤
omg this is so insightful! Celebs playing into the press always looks tacky, watered down and mechanical. Its interesting to conceptualize the balance of riding the wave of mainstream notoriety and also staying true to your art and integrity.
I have severe anxiety and depression. Nothing really makes me react much in life. But Terrie Joe and Ms. Jeorgia peach with the big peach make me look forward to something ! I get home and am motivated to clean around the house and run errands and study. Then I relax after a shower and kick back and watch Terrie Joe’s live on the week days. 💕 so happy been here since under 600 viewers!
I wish people who interview him know more than just the Terri Joe character. Like talk about Jeorgia, Amethyst, Amoura, him being himself, or even the one time characters he’s done (like the NYC aunt with the smoker voice, the country girl with one missing tooth, & stuff).
I wish he would have been interviewed by a gay gen z or black gay gen z - he is code switching - this platform is straight and white - he doesn’t seem at ease, code switching to conform to the white space.
this is the perfect embodiment of how the fans love kelon and his characters and know he could really go far with it and how kelon is like yeah i could i guess whatever whenever, lmao hes so laid back and we're all obsessive about him
Kelon is so talented, he could be an SNL writer. I don’t think he fully understands exactly how talented he is yet. He’s very humble, but he’s such a great improv comedian. The fact that it’s so natural to him just shows how great he is at what he does, but once he realizes how valuable he is as an artist many huge opportunities will come his way
I understand why the interviewer is trying to get an understanding, but Kelon is saying he has no process. Some folk can be witty and quick off the cuff, while others have to prepare. This guy obviously can tap into the foolery without trying. They're trying to get him to be cerebral about it when it's not that deep for him. It's a gift. Also, Kelon is perfectly ripe for Hollywood vultures, because he doesn't know what he wants and seems to have no footing. I hope he doesn't allow types like the main interviewer is giving me take advantage of him. The eyes of the main interviewer are seriously lit up as if he were beholding a gold mine that he wants to possess at all cost. KELON, GET A MANAGER AND BE CAREFUL: READ YOUR CONTRACTS AND PROTECT YOUR CHARACTERS FROM CORPORATE. Once other commercial money becomes involved, then the watering down commences.
Kelon goes with the flow, and he is very blessed, and I'm not talking Bernice. I mean he has a gift for success. If you are reading this, I am proud of you, Kelon!!!
Kelon is one of my absolute favorite people on this earth. Although we have never met, him and his characters have made me smile and laugh harder than anyone in this world. I look forward to watching his lives every single time.
I think his humor works right now because of all the overly politically correct stuff going on. It's refreshing to find such crude bold humor out in the mainstream. It works because he did this for no other reason than just to do it. Just pure expression. It's casual for him. There wasn't a plan, and there isn't a plan whenever he does Terri Joe, so I can imagine it being difficult to bottle it and be more intentional with Terri Joe. Because the very nature of trying to make money from it goes against the reason it came to be. It's possible, but tricky. He seems like a normal introverted guy, wallflower type of personality. A loveable funny and regular person with an insane sense of humor :)
This is exactly what I get from him. Id love to see him grow in whatever way he sees fit that’s authentic to him because that’s what we LOVE, but if we keep getting him to bless us with the Terriverse on TikTok lives for now until then I’m literally not complaining 😂
Kelon you are amazing...give yourself enough credit..you have touched so many ppls... lives .. good or bad. ..as Terri Joe you make ppl laugh..cry...angry... Deep inside Terri Joe has a big heart.. as Kelon you can tell you are a sweet heart... generous.. real ..and helpful...so no matter who you are ..keep being you ..thank you for all that you do...love your live show❤️
i relate to kelon so much… like i don’t feel like my own person. at all. i grew up alone… on the internet. i’m an observer. people see my potential but i’m always like wellll… I don’t know what I wanna do. and I feel like i’m not ambitious but I know I can be … but wow I’m so proud of Kelon for even going out and doing these interviews. he’s insanely funny and talented.
I love how Kelon just winged all of this and became so successful. it seems none of this was planned or thought out and just worked for him! I hope to stumble upon my success story like this one day.
I really didn’t want to comment on any TikTok’s etc of Terri joes content bc I was embarrassed about how much he has got me thru hard times, in deep grief from losing my best friend of 20 years and granny in less than year & 5 months, struggling with BPD depression n more I never laugh anymore I’m a shell of a person nothing can hold my attention long enough but Terri joes lives distract me and completely make me feel like my old self again i laugh soo much I know my best friend would have loved all of kelons characters it is completely our type of messed up humour😂❤ but seeing so many ppl comment the same thing made me feel comfort(not that I want anyone to be suffering) I hope he grows more confident in himself and realises we all love him I think he has imposter syndrome and feels he isn’t as worthy as he is, wee love you kelon and the terriuniverse xxx
So proud of Kelon. For everyone saying he should change platforms I disagree cuz he’s making a ton a ton of money on tiktok and idk how terri joe would translate to platforms where people would easily get offended and try to cancel him.
It feels so good for someone to talk about how they don't feel they have a personality. I also feel like I pick bits and pieces from a bunch of people in my life and it makes me feel bad sometimes??? Anyways it was just nice to hear!
kelon has the same exact socially awkwardness as me and i spot it right away lmao. i think it’s bc were both introverts and observers and notice things very easily about people
I do wish they talked more about the other characters instead of talking only about Terry Joe, like he said himself he sometimes is tired of Terry, and tbh Joergia, his other character is also pretty popular, so it would be nice if they talked about the other characters
YAY!!! We love Kelon so much! He has brought so much laughter and joy to so many people, i’m so glad to see him getting the recognition and praise he deserves 🤍
Kelon is one of the only people that makes me laugh consistently. Not just any laugh either, that painful laugh where your ribs start to hurt and you want to stop but you can’t
People need to honestly give the Jeorgia character the respect she deserves. Especially when in his more candid/off cam lives Kelon slips into that character the most on accident.
I've literally been rooting for Kelon from the get-go. He's a total genius the way he's doing this. Rooting for more success AND he needs to do more TH-cam videos. I've re watched the only 10 about 5000000 times 😂😂😂
Kelon and Terri joe started as my base personality when I watched her last year. I learned from him a lot. Plus the humor and laugh Terri joe is giving
Kelon... You're a freaking genius and I hope you realize it fully with time. You're unique on this platform and I think that's why so many of us love what you do. I don't wanna get to personal, but I just wanna say that watching Terri go live has been the best that's happened to me in a while. I've been having some bad years and since I discovered your comedy... It felt like it was all I needed. Last month was pure suffering on my life but istg that everytime I entered tiktok, a clip of yours would come up and I'd laugh like I'm the happiest person in the world. It's just been constant laughter in my life since I discovered you. Kelon, it's YOU that puts that smile on the people that enjoy your lives. You're amazing, seriously. Your imagination is incredible and I admire how you just are naturally funny. Greetings from Argentina!
I feel like I owe my life to Kelon at this point lol. Like really, hes been keeping me going thru my lowest points. Ill be rotting in bed all day but at least im laughing my ass off while doing so. Thank u for everything Kelon
kelon u are an amazing fucking soul ! you ARE your own entity and you do have ur own personality, you bring so many people joy and entertainment by just doing your own thing. don’t feel pressure about your journey; everything is gonna work out the way it’s supposed to, just enjoy everything in the moment cuz ur slaying. You literally are so dope, terri or not❤
Kelon, it's so clear to us that you are a COMEDIAN and WRITER! Speak it out. You are so talented and I know your future is bright!! Don't ever doubt yourself.
The part about not knowing what to do or not sure how to feel about most things is so real. Just doing things for the sake of it. But tbh he doesn't need to have it all figured out. He's very young still...
Many men wear wigs and give rude funny answers we have been watching this for years. I believe people who are younger and who didn't grow up seeing this type of comedy love him.
@@SumAnonymousAcapellae definitely have. We’re Gen Z most of us lol ofc we have. She’s not just a character that does “rude funny things and wears wigs”.
I love this man! Oh my god. Terri Joe saved my day so many times, just easily makes me cry with laughter every single time. THE person of the year. PERIOD 😂❤
I relate to Kelon so much and love seeing him like this just as a normal person. I love his energy so much. I think a lot of what he explains sounds so much like borderline personality disorder too which is probably why people love him so much because he’s imitating their personality. He’s amazing to have build a literal career out of his characters!
Kelon is literally me, I love his humor so fuckin much! The crude, mean, sarcastic humor is totally my thang. He’s crossing the line with things he says, but like he said, he literally is all the things he’s making fun of. That’s how we can laugh at life and at ourselves.❤❤❤❤
It’s genuine because Kelon made the character out of fun. There was no plan lol. He didn’t expect it to blow and you can tell he’s shocked it did. I wish him success, but at the same time I hope he has full control of any opportunity presented to him. Mainstream has a tendency to ruin things/people.
He seems like Robert Williams in a way, like he thrives and lives to make others happy, but he himself isn’t…💔 You can see and hear in his voice that he has had such a difficult childhood. I pray for him to find fulllllll happiness one day.
Love you, Kelon! Not just your characters! I am so happy I found you last week. I’ve been laughing and peeing everywhere ever since. Thank you for bringing us this joy!
I love Terri Joe but Keylon I love you more. You say you are not emotional and all but I know deep down they are just not touched as there is a lot of pain that will be unleashed. Thank you for bringing smile every night❤
I can definitely see him doing live stand up comedy dressed as those characters messing with the audience. The amount of people that would turn up for that would be insane
I suffer with pretty bad depression, and haven't laughed in years properly, but Teri Joe makes me belly laugh every single live. Kelon is hilarious
Me too!
Same here 🩷💙
Hope you get through it❤️🙏🏾!!
Same here. He's probably the only person that makes me genuinely happy. ❤
samee
i love kelon starting an answer off with “i don’t know” before providing very relatable and concrete answers
It’s because he’s humble
Literally what I was going to comment. Makes him more of a relatable person and honestly makes me like him more that he has insecurities just like the rest of us. I wish him nothing but the best in whatever he decides to do in the future 🥰
It made me unpatient
@@losenti926 that’s a problem you’re going to need to fix then

I also have really hard days so when he comes on a lot of that stress goes away. So thank you Kelon. 🤗
They NEED to get him on SNL
Yes! SNL would be perfect I’d never thought of that. 👏🏻👏🏻
I know you mean well, but SNL seems to always degrade great icons to run of the mill comedians. Kelon is a gay icon, and gay icons make their own spaces.
I feel like SNL is too PG13 for Kelon aka Terri Joe

Kelon is so talented, he could be an SNL writer. I don’t think he fully understands exactly how talented he is yet. He’s very humble, but he’s such a great improv comedian. The fact that it’s so natural to him just shows how great he is at what he does, but once he realizes how valuable he is as an artist many huge opportunities will come his way
I understand why the interviewer is trying to get an understanding, but Kelon is saying he has no process. Some folk can be witty and quick off the cuff, while others have to prepare. This guy obviously can tap into the foolery without trying. They're trying to get him to be cerebral about it when it's not that deep for him. It's a gift. Also, Kelon is perfectly ripe for Hollywood vultures, because he doesn't know what he wants and seems to have no footing. I hope he doesn't allow types like the main interviewer is giving me take advantage of him. The eyes of the main interviewer are seriously lit up as if he were beholding a gold mine that he wants to possess at all cost. KELON, GET A MANAGER AND BE CAREFUL: READ YOUR CONTRACTS AND PROTECT YOUR CHARACTERS FROM CORPORATE. Once other commercial money becomes involved, then the watering down commences.
Kelon goes with the flow, and he is very blessed, and I'm not talking Bernice. I mean he has a gift for success. If you are reading this, I am proud of you, Kelon!!!
Kelon is one of my absolute favorite people on this earth. Although we have never met, him and his characters have made me smile and laugh harder than anyone in this world. I look forward to watching his lives every single time.
I think his humor works right now because of all the overly politically correct stuff going on. It's refreshing to find such crude bold humor out in the mainstream. It works because he did this for no other reason than just to do it. Just pure expression. It's casual for him. There wasn't a plan, and there isn't a plan whenever he does Terri Joe, so I can imagine it being difficult to bottle it and be more intentional with Terri Joe. Because the very nature of trying to make money from it goes against the reason it came to be. It's possible, but tricky. He seems like a normal introverted guy, wallflower type of personality. A loveable funny and regular person with an insane sense of humor :)
This is exactly what I get from him. Id love to see him grow in whatever way he sees fit that’s authentic to him because that’s what we LOVE, but if we keep getting him to bless us with the Terriverse on TikTok lives for now until then I’m literally not complaining 😂
i’m so proud of him omfg
Same
Kelon, I cannot express my gratitude for all that you are and all that you do. You’ve made me so happy and the world is a better place with you in it
Kelon is sooo freakin adorable 😳 ...and his brain is extremely fascinating ✨️
Kelon you are amazing...give yourself enough credit..you have touched so many ppls... lives .. good or bad. ..as Terri Joe you make ppl laugh..cry...angry... Deep inside Terri Joe has a big heart.. as Kelon you can tell you are a sweet heart... generous.. real ..and helpful...so no matter who you are ..keep being you ..thank you for all that you do...love your live show❤️
“I don’t know” Kelon is me in every situation 🤣
So incredibly happy to see Kelon get the recognition he deserves. I can’t wait to see where he goes next 🥹
He needs a manager or someone to help guide him. He’s missing out on so much ❤❤
i hope he finds a really good manager if he does because some of these managers are literally from hell
He says he has a manager if you watch the full interview.
i relate to kelon so much… like i don’t feel like my own person. at all. i grew up alone… on the internet. i’m an observer. people see my potential but i’m always like wellll… I don’t know what I wanna do. and I feel like i’m not ambitious but I know I can be … but wow I’m so proud of Kelon for even going out and doing these interviews. he’s insanely funny and talented.
I love how Kelon just winged all of this and became so successful. it seems none of this was planned or thought out and just worked for him! I hope to stumble upon my success story like this one day.
Bro is just so baffled by the concept of something being organic that he asked the same question over and over again
the way TRUE BLOOD gave us terri jo is the BEST CONTRIBUTION that series has made
I’m watching for the first time just to get a glimpse of the character that inspired Terri
The Terri-verse keeps me going every mon-thurs NOT kidding lol
The content on here are superb. We love to see more insightful interviews like this.
I really didn’t want to comment on any TikTok’s etc of Terri joes content bc I was embarrassed about how much he has got me thru hard times, in deep grief from losing my best friend of 20 years and granny in less than year & 5 months, struggling with BPD depression n more I never laugh anymore I’m a shell of a person nothing can hold my attention long enough but Terri joes lives distract me and completely make me feel like my old self again i laugh soo much I know my best friend would have loved all of kelons characters it is completely our type of messed up humour😂❤ but seeing so many ppl comment the same thing made me feel comfort(not that I want anyone to be suffering) I hope he grows more confident in himself and realises we all love him I think he has imposter syndrome and feels he isn’t as worthy as he is, wee love you kelon and the terriuniverse xxx
I love that Kelon is starting to get out there more. Any interview he has, know I’m watching. ☀️🤎
terri jo helped me overcome depression, her lives are ecstatic
So proud of Kelon. For everyone saying he should change platforms I disagree cuz he’s making a ton a ton of money on tiktok and idk how terri joe would translate to platforms where people would easily get offended and try to cancel him.
It feels so good for someone to talk about how they don't feel they have a personality. I also feel like I pick bits and pieces from a bunch of people in my life and it makes me feel bad sometimes??? Anyways it was just nice to hear!
kelon has the same exact socially awkwardness as me and i spot it right away lmao. i think it’s bc were both introverts and observers and notice things very easily about people
I do wish they talked more about the other characters instead of talking only about Terry Joe, like he said himself he sometimes is tired of Terry, and tbh Joergia, his other character is also pretty popular, so it would be nice if they talked about the other characters
That throat gulp gets me everytime....and it be so loud too
We can all relate to that feel😂
Kelon is probably one of the best people who makes me laugh to me he's the best comedian
So happy for you Kelon! Wishing you all the success, you deserve it. Thanks for all the laughs Terri Joe brings the TikTok community
YAY!!! We love Kelon so much! He has brought so much laughter and joy to so many people, i’m so glad to see him getting the recognition and praise he deserves 🤍
i have so much love for kelon it’s like u can just tell he has such a beautiful soul and heart❣️
Kelon is one of the only people that makes me laugh consistently. Not just any laugh either, that painful laugh where your ribs start to hurt and you want to stop but you can’t
Ugh I just love him 🥹❤️ He is so sweet and I'm glad he is himself but also have Terri and Georgia as an outlet. We love you Kelon.. we're so proud 👏🏼
"I'm just a very strange person" we love!
Wow…I was not expecting this interview lol
At all!! But it was so nice !
People need to honestly give the Jeorgia character the respect she deserves. Especially when in his more candid/off cam lives Kelon slips into that character the most on accident.
Been watching Kelon since he had 1k viewers absolutely so proud of him and I wish him the best in the future.
I've literally been rooting for Kelon from the get-go. He's a total genius the way he's doing this. Rooting for more success AND he needs to do more TH-cam videos. I've re watched the only 10 about 5000000 times 😂😂😂
Kelon and Terri joe started as my base personality when I watched her last year. I learned from him a lot. Plus the humor and laugh Terri joe is giving
Kelon... You're a freaking genius and I hope you realize it fully with time. You're unique on this platform and I think that's why so many of us love what you do. I don't wanna get to personal, but I just wanna say that watching Terri go live has been the best that's happened to me in a while. I've been having some bad years and since I discovered your comedy... It felt like it was all I needed. Last month was pure suffering on my life but istg that everytime I entered tiktok, a clip of yours would come up and I'd laugh like I'm the happiest person in the world. It's just been constant laughter in my life since I discovered you.
Kelon, it's YOU that puts that smile on the people that enjoy your lives. You're amazing, seriously. Your imagination is incredible and I admire how you just are naturally funny. Greetings from Argentina!
I feel like I owe my life to Kelon at this point lol. Like really, hes been keeping me going thru my lowest points. Ill be rotting in bed all day but at least im laughing my ass off while doing so. Thank u for everything Kelon
kelon u are an amazing fucking soul ! you ARE your own entity and you do have ur own personality, you bring so many people joy and entertainment by just doing your own thing. don’t feel pressure about your journey; everything is gonna work out the way it’s supposed to, just enjoy everything in the moment cuz ur slaying. You literally are so dope, terri or not❤
I absolutely adore Kelon!!! ❤
I am not into toxic and I am a very calm hard working individual, but Kelon has brought comedy to me that I never knew I would ever enjoy
He’d be a great addition to the boondocks lol. I love his satire
Kelon, it's so clear to us that you are a COMEDIAN and WRITER! Speak it out. You are so talented and I know your future is bright!! Don't ever doubt yourself.
honestly so proud of how far kelons come !! i know it feels good for him especially when he was once in a bad place
The part about not knowing what to do or not sure how to feel about most things is so real. Just doing things for the sake of it. But tbh he doesn't need to have it all figured out. He's very young still...
He doesn’t know how much his character keeps my laughing during bad days!!!
A animated series of Terri would be amazing
Terri and momma and uncle Randy and pa. On the farm. Before both died
His other voices and singing is great aswell. He is genuinely talented and 100% transparent about that he "just" happened to blow up.
I love that he's able to ignore others and do what's best for him, like if he dont wanna play Terri he won't.
We stan you Kelon ❤️💗
His Terri Joe character really is brilliant and it's funny that he's so disconnected from the power of it.
Many men wear wigs and give rude funny answers we have been watching this for years. I believe people who are younger and who didn't grow up seeing this type of comedy love him.
@@SumAnonymousAcapella it's a different character, though. The closest would be Medea, but it's a completely different backstory and roasting style
@@SumAnonymousAcapellae definitely have. We’re Gen Z most of us lol ofc we have. She’s not just a character that does “rude funny things and wears wigs”.
You can tell he has severe social anxiety. I related way too hard to this interview.
For real. I feel this so much. I would be nervous sweating so bad the WHOLE time lol love him
I love this man! Oh my god. Terri Joe saved my day so many times, just easily makes me cry with laughter every single time. THE person of the year. PERIOD 😂❤
Terri didn't Kelon did.
This interview made me love Kelon even more
We LOVE you Kelon! You’re the funniest person ever! 😢❤
I relate to Kelon so much and love seeing him like this just as a normal person. I love his energy so much. I think a lot of what he explains sounds so much like borderline personality disorder too which is probably why people love him so much because he’s imitating their personality. He’s amazing to have build a literal career out of his characters!
it’s great to see someone with your personality type grow this much, it’s inspiring af.
a terri joe album would be amazing. some of my favorite moments are her singing the most random lyrics 😂
Kelon is literally me, I love his humor so fuckin much! The crude, mean, sarcastic humor is totally my thang. He’s crossing the line with things he says, but like he said, he literally is all the things he’s making fun of. That’s how we can laugh at life and at ourselves.❤❤❤❤
This felt like therapy and I loved it. Love Kelon.
Thanks for this.. look forward to watching, the man behind TerriJoe is a genuine genius of comedy 👏 peace and love from Scotland x ❤️ x
When Kelon breaks character as Terri Joe is just the funniest thing ever 💀💀
Terri Joe is everything to me! Kelons quick wit really is unmatched!!!!
He’s so relatable like sometimes I’m just like idk
Probably because you spend more time on your phone than in your own mind
It’s genuine because Kelon made the character out of fun. There was no plan lol. He didn’t expect it to blow and you can tell he’s shocked it did. I wish him success, but at the same time I hope he has full control of any opportunity presented to him. Mainstream has a tendency to ruin things/people.
He seems like Robert Williams in a way, like he thrives and lives to make others happy, but he himself isn’t…💔
You can see and hear in his voice that he has had such a difficult childhood. I pray for him to find fulllllll happiness one day.
Love you, Kelon! Not just your characters! I am so happy I found you last week. I’ve been laughing and peeing everywhere ever since. Thank you for bringing us this joy!
Heck yea! Good for Kelon giving more interviews! So Psyiconic! ❤❤❤
I love Terri Joe but Keylon I love you more. You say you are not emotional and all but I know deep down they are just not touched as there is a lot of pain that will be unleashed. Thank you for bringing smile every night❤
I can definitely see him doing live stand up comedy dressed as those characters messing with the audience. The amount of people that would turn up for that would be insane
I frikkin love Kelon! We need merch, Kelon!! Please?! Seems like such an authentic human.
