Bukky's win just goes to show - there is raw talent in most who don't have access to 'those' schools/spaces/places... We just need a chance. Money doesn't equal talent. Talent equals talent.
@alimkheraj
Looool - no matter how you put it, you're there. And you're there taking multiple pictures, mixing with them....
But I guess it's so your TL pops and you look like a Saint huh?!
Cool cool 🙂
When the bus is practically empty, what possesses a person to come and place themselves right next to you. I can feel this man's heartbeat he's so close to me.
Oh nice. He just burped. We had eggs for breakfast. Nice

Awarded to comedy acts who have made an outstanding VAULT Festival debut.
#VAULTFestival2023
I really appreciate all the love that has come my way since that silly review. Initially, I was upset. But when you actually read it, it's laughable. I'm full of love today, knowing that my show is good, my audience enjoy it and my colleagues are beautiful humans 🥰
Guys, I'm on the plane, heading to South Africa! My first time going and I'm chuffed it's for work! I'm lucky to be given a premium economy ticket. Lots of leg room 🙃 Hadn't even sat down and was offered Prosecco 🥰 this trip is gonna be lit!
Today, on my train back to London, I was in first class. At the start of my journey, I chose an apple from the cart. I left it. Fell asleep. I've just woken up and seen that the lady sitting opposite me has just thrown away an apple core. So I ask her if she ate my apple
Kelechi always makes me scream, but THIS WEEK she has taken the wind, tea and cocktail out of me with her tweets and podcast visuals. If you're not on board already, ugh! The end.

Anyone else really proud of Dane Baptiste? Cause I have to keep reminding myself that we are not related. I did not birth this man. But my goodness, I'M SO PROUD
I won't lie, I'm glad
@kelechnekoff
didn't reveal the dirt - it's one of the many reasons why I respect her so highly. HOWEVER, you see that 'night before the trad' - I'm down for a t'shirt or two
And an inbox with the tea won't hurt- all this cake isn't going to digest itself
Sooooo, I've finally joined the company 💜
I'm so happy, words can't express. And I'll be managed by the absolutely awesome

LETS GET TO WERKKKK 🙌🏾🙌🏾
This time last year I had just won Funny Women, called my mgr and quit my day job, went to waldrobe for a Maltesers ad and had coffee's with agents to see who I liked.
Today, I'm standing in my kitchen, looking at the squirrals having sex in my garden.
Isn't life awesome 💜💙
I'm going to start a company for people who need a self-tape partner, because the assumption that u have someone, is wild. Expecting someone to stop their day for u, is wild. Recording the scene & then trying to do it off that, IS WILD because the timing is never the same 😭
Reasons why I will ALWAYS have a girl crush on
@kelechnekoff
🤣😩
That's the opening sentence. The opening...!
Follow her, support her, celebrate her - she is literally THE TRUTH 🖤💜❤️💙
The 👏🏾 Last 👏🏾 Leg 👏🏾
I'm still in shock that I just did this show 🤯 What a wonderful way to close out the year, on set 🙏🏾
If you haven't seen it yet, pop on over to

(4OD) and give it a watch!
That's two very memorable Fridays ✨️
TODAY, HISTORY WILL BE MADE!!
Yesterday we spent the day rehearsing and changing the script every two minutes, thanks Truss 🙄
But TODAY we are ready for whatever life throws at us!!
Watch, LIVE, tonight at 9pm,

Today is the funeral of my childhood friend. In primary school, he was the bestie of my 'first love'... There were 6 of us. Thick as thieves. You couldn’t separate us. 6 years ago, we all met up and caught up with life. Some, still in contact. Some having moved far away. (1)
As an adult, it's really hard to see these things. Mostly because you realise just how badly you were treated when you were young. And how people continue to TRY and treat you. It's hard being a Black female. Trust us when we say these words - WE ARE TIRED!
Imagine... my first troll is a black girl who is trolling me because I don't have hair 😂😂😂 Apparently I'm ugly for it 😂😂
She'll need more than that to upset me. Especially as every photo on her page has a filter 😂😂
Honestly!
I don't think it's sunk in that I was just casually flexing with Jo Brand yesterday. THE Jo Brand 🤯 Best bit, she's just as fucking awesome as I imagined 🥰
Today marks 9 years a comedian! 9 years since I said 'let me try this & see' 9 years since I put my acting, dancing & hosting on ice!
I've battled fear, lack of self belief, lack of self worth and my constant routine of doubting my abilities - I've come A LONG WAY 😊
Woke up and it feels like a dream of a weekend. Won an award and completed Love Island Series 9 as a scriptwriter...
I'll be the one over here, floating
🥰
From school until the last moment we spoke, always a voice of reason. A kind, gentle soul who didn't want trouble (but was able to back it if it came your way)...
I'll love you forever, my friend 💜
Rest In Eternal Peace 🕊
Just so you know guys
@nocontxtoffmenu
, I'm getting gifted a boil from Decatur and I CAN'T FUCKING WAIT! I even told them to leave them sauseeeeeigeeeees in there!

Kelechi needs all the protection. She's really out here asking all the questions and doing all the things whilst staying a stylish, cool, talented baby girl.
Whew den!
Guyssss, I'm going back to Edinburgh... 🫣
This new hour is called 'August'.
It's raw. It's real. It's me.
Come see?
Full information via the linktree in my bio 👌🏾
For dates not mentioned, an update will be posted 🙏🏾
Yesterday I found out that one of my eldest friends, a primary school friend, passed. A guy who would often check on me if I 'looked too busy', or if my background looked chaotic, would offer to send me money for a cab home. A guy who really should still be here 😢
RIP Saidu 💜
I think it’s wild that
@tiktok_uk
have stopped me posting because racists arrived in their droves to report my videos. I haven’t said anything untoward. In fact the commenters were cussing me out but it’s my page that gets locked. Social media is so anti-Black.
Walking into 37 like 😏
It's been one hell of a year! I've met career and personal goals - I've laughed, cried, grown and just been the best space I've ever been in (mostly lol)
Thank you to my village for keeping me grounded, sane, strong, driven but most importantly, loved ❤️❤️
My agents AGENTED the shit out of themselves today. Not to discredit any other day, but SHIT DEN! They both deserve all the alcohol and hugs.
Same like today tomorrow please 💜
Today you can catch on your TV screens TWICE 🥴🙏🏾

@bbctwo
Pinch me 🙃💜
I just saw a lady, in open toe heels, with a little black dress on and no coat. In this UK weather.
I just want to know what part of the North she is from
Medhi's intense desire to present Whitney as a problematic black girl is making my skin itch. She literally isn't anything like the negative stereotype people try to place on us. Producers, time to produce Medhi home please!
#LoveIsland
Imagine drenching yourself in the jewels that you KNOW your great-grandad STOLE, taking pictures with a smug face, and forcing people who are less fortunate than you, to pay for a party you really shouldn't be having...
Imagine.
Had a in real life recall yesterday. Walked into the room & saw 4 women. Director, producer, actor, crew member. It was the first time I was in a space like that & felt so good 🥰 It would be awesome to get that job and be on set with all those women. Just syncing together x
@kelechnekoff
Are we just gonna ignore Uncle at the end saying 'allllrite, allllrite' gbdhsusnedj
He let them have their fun and stopped it before it became manslaughter. He is the true MVP in this clip
She can't name a single thing Meghan Markle has done wrong or why she really hates her. She just proved that it's the newspapers that made her hate a lady she has never met.
..joke again so they can hear it. The others looked like they vote against everything we stand for. But mate, the saying 'don't judge a book...' was real in this room. What a beautiful gig! I left there wanting to join the club! I mean, I'm 8,000 tax brackets away but I can dream
I don't speak up about much, but have a problem when we start being unkind to children.
@BishopChalloner
, you definitely need to explain why this young girl is banned, from ANY part of the school, for her chosen hairstyle. Why does her education have to suffer? Why?
My child is banned from the school playground/canteen for her hair, its neatly braided in a natural colour, I gave them a lesson on the history of black womens hairs cultural significance of braiding, they chose violence,
@BishopChalloner
has a racist hair policy!!!
Guys....! I'm so excited to tell you all thisssss!
The guys at

Guys, our talented brother
