This is the first time I'm watching this interview and tbh I'm boiling from the inside. That interviewer called Lilly "ancient", "school drop out" and what not? Lilly, as usual, handled it in an extremely calm way. That interviewer seriously needs to watch the #GirlLove video -.-
Why is the interviewer so condescending? I mean hello!! If you think You Tube is not as important as traditional media and You Tube creators are not important people....just remember that your boss fired your ass up to interview Lilly and not the other way round.
+tanima kedar Yeah she also interviewed Lady Gaga a while ago and it was a train wreck from the start. She was totally condescending and you could tell Gaga was annoyed very quickly!
Ik! she really tried to paint Lilly as some college dropout that just got lucky with making videos and now that she's 'ancient' she should really make the jump to traditional media
I picked up a negative vibe from the interviewer. I am so pleased with the way Lilly responded to all the questions and comments. Lilly just made ALOT of viewers like her even more.
the interviewer is being indirectly sarcastic n rude..her tone is not good..girl she is known all over the world n billions of ppl love her..treat her in a way she deserves
Going through the comments, and I am so relieved that I wasn't the only one who raised an eyebrow at this. Maybe it's because this is The National, and so things are on the more formal end, but the whole interview just felt...off. Like the tone was weird. Also, I felt like the interviewer was being seriously passive-aggressive? I dunno. Either way, Lilly handled it with grace as per usual ^_^
Does anyone else feel like smacking the interviewer's face for being so unprepared for this interview and underestimating the power of TH-cam with her crappy questions? 👊👊👊
That interviewer was honestly unprepared & yo could see her biases categorizing Lilly but Lilly that never ceases to amaze us has done great & made this lady feel like an ass. Props to Lilly! #AwesomeSauce
the thing I like about lily the most is that she takes confidence in her natural beauty. you'll see that in many of the videos or v logs she's completey without make up. and that is what makes her the most beautiful girl in the world.
Personally think the interviewer had some kind of chip on her shoulder, and wasn't as friendly as I would have liked. But as always, Lilly outshined her by setting the record straight and taking every comment, whether it was intended as condescending or not, in her stride. Love you Lilly. Keep doing what you do
This interviewer is so rude. Comedians making fun of their parents is not a "South Asian" thing. Have you ever seen a stand-up routine from comedians such as George Lopez, Kevin Hart, or even Ellen Degeneres? Everyone makes fun of their parents in comedy because it's relatable to people of all cultures. You are so ignorant.
I just can't stand the undertone in Mesley's questions. So many assumptions stretching from Lily's parents to her 'dropping out' of university. It seems like establishment media don't like TH-camrs. I have a news for you Mesley: get over it!! We like TH-camrs and they relate to us irrespective of how much fun you make of their videos and what they make for a living. Mesley, please prepare for interviews next time you happen to interview a TH-camr. You disappointed us here. Cheers,
who is this ridiculous interviewer. it seems like she got stuck with doing an interview with someone she doesn't know or care about. lilly probably has more followers and global influence than this lady has locally. this lady is ridiculous as hell #LEH
+Nikki U. Very true, she's normally very professional, but I didn't like the tone here... But she's human, we all have our moments! And we all shouldn't be judged off of only one of them :D.
I love how she tells her story every time like it's the first time. Lots of love to Lilly Singh! #Goteamsuper #spreadgirllove #iisuperwomanii You were amazing in this interview, like you always are everywhere! Big hugs!
I love her vids. My sis showed me her when I was 9 and I'm almost 12 and I've been watching iisuperwomenii ever since then. I subscribe to both of her channels. Go Lilly!
Superwoman's humor is not my thing. I prefer Jusreign any day but Lilly deserves all the subscribers and fans that she has. I'm not a violent person but this interviewer made me re-think that aspect of my personality! With that condescending tone and her nose up her forehead, Lilly was too civil to even continue talking with a smile on her face.
I agree with the comments below. The interviewer is rude ignorant condescending etc etc all of it put together! Simply love the way lilly handles it!..
Lilly handled this interview fantastically. The interviewer is clearly super unprepared and borderline offensive. props to Lilly for carrying herself so well. The interviewer's questions were clunky and condescending
Lol wow even after Ms. Singh said that those characters aren't really based on her parents, this interviewer asked how her parents feel when she makes fun of them. "Is that a South Asian thing?", citing a mere 3 comedians.
omg! i thought it was only me getting negative vibes from the interviewer but a lot of people in the comments feel the same way. Lilly did a good job at keeping the excitement while the interviewer is subtly being condescending
I hope the interviewer opens her eyes...people like that is why a campaign like #GirlLove is around...when really #GirlLove should already be a way of life!
I actually thought the interviewer did a good job for the audience that this content is directed at, e.g. an audience that is not familiar with youtube yet and has certain biases towards it. As such, the interviewer did ask some "ignorant" questions, but I think that was on purpose, because what is obvious to team internet is not obvious to everybody. And I don't think she was condescending. She was nice and a bit reserved as most people are when you are talking to someone and get to know someone whose world you're not familiar with yet.
Not a very good vibe from the interviewer.She is very rude.And Lily is a darling for holding her composure so well.Makes me love and support her a thousand times more.And for the interviewer"Get a grip grandma.Your old and your mean cos ritirement is right round the corner.....even that tons of plastic smiles couldn't cover up the fact that you are jealous and bitter of Lily"....#One Love Superwoman!!!
This woman is superwoman without doubt. Love her for how inclusive and inspirational she is. She smashed the white supremacy out loud in this video for probably how inferior the interviewer feels in front of this super girl who is not white but so popular, inclusive and working for a cause. My respect for Lilly Singh goes several notches up. It takes substance to sell your craft and be so clear on what you do. She is so graceful! She makes me cry. Reading her book how to be bawse and not surprised to see where she is right now. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Interviewer had a condescending belittling tone throughout. Interviewer did not come across as warm nor supportive. Very cold and unrelatable. LILY WAS AWESOME!!! And well handled the interviewer.
the interviewer is Anne Marie medowick. she usually reports "hard" news which might be why she's condescending about interviewing someone who she probably doesn't even take seriously. props to Lilly for doing an amazing job with her answers.
am I the only one that thought they interviewer was being very mean. Like with every question it had a condescending tone and had some backhanded compliments. For this to still be the stigma in 2016 now 2017 is kind of ridiculous. Like how she assumed that she dropped out of college or the fact that she was pushing traditional media. Oh well Lilly handled it with class and didn't take any shit.
Being in the media line before, I would definitely say the interviewer should have approached her questions to Lilly in a better manner. Lilly nailed all her answers though!!
Omggg this interviewer was just so ignorant. I didnt enjoy the vibe of her tone and speech. Now those are stupid comments that us indian ppl have to face " south asian thing" wTH. All i have to say is Lilly you handled her very well with intelligence and grace.
Umm I don't see the interviewer as condescending. She was asking questions about TH-cam because she doesn't know how it works. This was a great interview and Lilly Singh was amazing as always.
white people be tripping to see a brown girl ruling the world. -___- for eg. this interviewer. never mind, I am happy that Lilly will always be a TH-camr. She da Queen.
why is the interviewer being so rude with her questions, she didn't do much research on Lily... she thinks Lily is just another person making videos... but guess what Lily a.k.a superwoman is a talented down to earth person... superwoman makes people laugh in turn makes herself happy... i grantee you when you watch Superwoman videos, it would make you smile and laugh...

Lilly handled the interviewer's questions like a pro.
+sanskriti arora yes she did!
+sanskriti arora Lilly handled it like a boss!
+Nicolle Isaac She is a BOSS.
+Nicolle Isaac instantly thought of machal's song 😂
sanskriti arora yes she is!

👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🙌
Yeah my mouth dropped when she called her ancient!!
This interviewer was like 'I better get salty'I gotta interview this bissh from TH-cam who makes more money than me
😂😂😂

Her fans are not all just 14,15,16 I'm 42 and love her vids

Ik! she really tried to paint Lilly as some college dropout that just got lucky with making videos and now that she's 'ancient' she should really make the jump to traditional media

Lilly answered some tough and ignorant questions with grace and maturity .. Really impressed
i love how the interviewer really tried to put her on the spot multiple times, but lilly kept clapping back with really good answers.
I picked up a negative vibe from the interviewer. I am so pleased with the way Lilly responded to all the questions and comments. Lilly just made ALOT of viewers like her even more.
the interviewer is being indirectly sarcastic n rude..her tone is not good..girl she is known all over the world n billions of ppl love her..treat her in a way she deserves
7:03 "You're like ancient now, you're in your 20s"
Then what does that make the interviewer???
Aishwarya Net 👍

Yeah 👊

This interviewer is so ignorant.... props to Lily for holding it down.
the thing I like about lily the most is that she takes confidence in her natural beauty. you'll see that in many of the videos or v logs she's completey without make up. and that is what makes her the most beautiful girl in the world.
awe
Mama unicorn looking so pretty , humble and mature, that she is. Keep inspiring lilly. #onelove#girllove. xoxo 😊
Her fan base isn't of young girls it made up of unicorns 🦄🦄🦄🦄👍👍👍
Personally think the interviewer had some kind of chip on her shoulder, and wasn't as friendly as I would have liked. But as always, Lilly outshined her by setting the record straight and taking every comment, whether it was intended as condescending or not, in her stride. Love you Lilly. Keep doing what you do
"You're ancient"
I wish the host had put it in better words....... It would have sounded better.
She said you're ancient now? ARE YOU KIDDING ME???? 👊
can u point it? i can't find
This interviewer is so rude. Comedians making fun of their parents is not a "South Asian" thing.

That interviewer is making me crazy
But Lilly nailed it x
The interviewer pisses me of by the way she talks to Lily
so true
me too
yes I agree! but lilly handled it like a boss
The tone and attitude of that woman. It speaks volumes.
she is beyond smart, beautiful and talented! ❤
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE HOW SHE MENTIONS US JAMAICAN SUBSCRIBERS!!!!!
I just can't stand the undertone in Mesley's questions. So many assumptions stretching from Lily's parents to her 'dropping out' of university. It seems like establishment media don't like TH-camrs.

Mesley, please prepare for interviews next time you happen to interview a TH-camr. You disappointed us here.
Cheers,
I agree with you
+Joe Bakker Agreed, the interviewer was a real asshat.
totally agreed
How is this dinosaur calling 27 year old Lily ancient????? So disrespectful and condescending
I love Lilly 😘
Lilly totally killed her with kindness 😉❤️
The interviewer is condescending! Probably jealous of the fact that Lilly Singh is at least 10 times as more successful.
Lilly handled this very well,happy she's so nice :)
The answers she's giving are so on point. I'm so proud. she's amazing.
That's where positively played its role.. Pat on back Ms. Superwoman
who is this ridiculous interviewer. it seems like she got stuck with doing an interview with someone she doesn't know or care about. lilly probably has more followers and global influence than this lady has locally. this lady is ridiculous as hell #LEH
Lilly handled those questions well, if it were me I would have bitch-slapped the interviewer and left right about the time she called me ancient
Terrible interviewer!!! Like honestly do your research before interviewing someone. She was degrading Lilly so much. She needs to go.
Lily you handled this like a boss!!!! Such an epitome of your words....this is why you are loved! Keep it real always...hugs! 😄😎💖
The interviewer sounds so arrogant. Serously the questions were ok, but the way she asked them seemed so judgemental
Guys, I received some bad vibes from the interviewer as well; but unless we personally know her, no need to assume the worse. 😌
+Nikki U. Very true, she's normally very professional, but I didn't like the tone here... But she's human, we all have our moments! And we all shouldn't be judged off of only one of them :D.
but who hires such pple?
This Interviewer Tho!!!... (-- _ --)...
You go girl, you are awesome! :)..
Btw..her age demo is not just teens!!!
first of all....lily is looking so gorgeous
Props to Lilly for not punching the interviewer in the face because I certainly wanted to
someone needs to give this lady a class in #girllove, why is she being so condescending? not necessary at all.
I love how Lilly handled herself in this interview. Impressive and looking beautiful.
I love how she tells her story every time like it's the first time. Lots of love to Lilly Singh! #Goteamsuper #spreadgirllove #iisuperwomanii You were amazing in this interview, like you always are everywhere! Big hugs!
How many times did Lilly have to repeat that she wasn't making fun of her parents -_-
just discoving Lilly , I am 50, she is off the chain , positive , smart and inspirational.
QUEEN!
she is sooo beautiful!!!😇😘😘
I love her vids. My sis showed me her when I was 9 and I'm almost 12 and I've been watching iisuperwomenii ever since then. I subscribe to both of her channels. Go Lilly!

+Nalonracky Gaming SAME

So proud of this young woman 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Lilly is so beautiful externally and internally... I just love this lady!
She is a star.
Superwoman's humor is not my thing. I prefer Jusreign any day but Lilly deserves all the subscribers and fans that she has. I'm not a violent person but this interviewer made me re-think that aspect of my personality! With that condescending tone and her nose up her forehead, Lilly was too civil to even continue talking with a smile on her face.
this made me smile so much. the fact that even though your not a fan you stand up for lilly. You are amazing thank you
I agree with the comments below. The interviewer is rude ignorant condescending etc etc all of it put together! Simply love the way lilly handles it!..
Lilly handled the snarkiness of that interviewer beautifully.
WHY IS THE INTERVIEWER SO CONDESCENDING AND RUDE?
Lilly handled this interview fantastically. The interviewer is clearly super unprepared and borderline offensive. props to Lilly for carrying herself so well. The interviewer's questions were clunky and condescending
Lol wow even after Ms. Singh said that those characters aren't really based on her parents, this interviewer asked how her parents feel when she makes fun of them. "Is that a South Asian thing?", citing a mere 3 comedians.
Only Lilly would respond to that 'ancient' comment like a bawse🙏🏽
Preeyenha Elango 👍
Yeah it was rude for the interviewer to interview Lily like that,but she handled that great!! I love her!!✨💕❤️
omg! i thought it was only me getting negative vibes from the interviewer but a lot of people in the comments feel the same way. Lilly did a good job at keeping the excitement while the interviewer is subtly being condescending
I hope the interviewer opens her eyes...people like that is why a campaign like #GirlLove is around...when really #GirlLove should already be a way of life!
And now she has her own show. Doing big things.
I actually thought the interviewer did a good job for the audience that this content is directed at, e.g. an audience that is not familiar with youtube yet and has certain biases towards it. As such, the interviewer did ask some "ignorant" questions, but I think that was on purpose, because what is obvious to team internet is not obvious to everybody.

Demian Haki Yeah, but she could've worded those questions better.
Yeah maybe but the "is that an south asian thing" was really unnecessary and ignorant.
Lilly is so beautiful
Go Lilly #teamsuperwoman!
that women interviewing lilly is so disrespectful.
Not a very good vibe from the interviewer.She is very rude.And Lily is a darling for holding her composure so well.Makes me love and support her a thousand times more.And for the interviewer"Get a grip grandma.Your old and your mean cos ritirement is right round the corner.....even that tons of plastic smiles couldn't cover up the fact that you are jealous and bitter of Lily"....#One Love Superwoman!!!

This interviewer was somewhat arrogant throughout this. Zero energy and clearly doesn't know her facts.
Lilly was amazing with every answer.
good luck Lilly! ❤
I wanted to comment about the interviewers attitude but #GirlLove ❤️
am I the only one that thought they interviewer was being very mean. Like with every question it had a condescending tone and had some backhanded compliments.

lilly is such a cool person
dropped out? excuuuse me. my girl was valedictorian.
She is so humble I don't even think the word 'Hate' exists in her universe. The only celebrity I can't bring myself to hate xD
ancient??...oh please...lilly is ever living in our hearts...
Lilly handled this interview
Being in the media line before, I would definitely say the interviewer should have approached her questions to Lilly in a better manner. Lilly nailed all her answers though!!
