Jameela Jamil Is Calling Out Celebrities Who Push Detox Teas One By One In A Savage Way

ADVERTISEMENT

Jameela Jamil may play the “hot, rich fraud with legs for days,” Tahani Al-Jamil, on TV show The Good Place, but her recent Twitter rant proves that offscreen she’s as real as it gets. Over Thanksgiving weekend, the most gluttonous of holidays, the star took a stab at celebrities who peddle “flat tummy teas” on social media, a fat ‘cure all’ known to contain diuretics.

In her far from subtle Twitter series, Jamil summed up her criticism by saying she hoped they all sh*t their pants in public. Scroll down below to read Jamil’s humorously blunt message on the nonsense behind these ads along with the comments she received.

I love Jameela Jamil! I love her even more now. I don't care what people do to their bodies...it's their bodies...BUT..when you have millions of fans who watch your every move, and most of them are young girls then you have a responsibility to them.

If a young women is taking diet advice from Cardi B or Khole Kardashian lets be honest, these aren't going to be future Nobel prize winners. Telling someone who dates men who have a coke and hooker induced comas in a brothel outside of Reno to be responsible in her advertising is just inane lol.

Probably off-topic, but I find people using their kids to justify morally questionable or ill-considered decisions so annoying. Ms. Jamil has a point. Many points, actually.

In the 18th and 19th Centuries, being poor was thought to be a moral failure, rather than a socio-economic one. In the 21st Century, being fat is considered a moral failure, rather than a socio-economic one.

lax Teas (as i like to call them) not only do not work the way they are promoted. you will also get : stomach pains, a Brown soup invading your panties, depending on the tea - bad breath and on top of all that some teas who use the ingredient "Senna" or "Senna leafes" have also a good Chance of you getting addicted and Building up a resistence so you Need more and more to see any "effect". been there, done that. (to my shame) when i was studying in japan a few years ago Senna Tea and the Banana diet where the latest fad and since we european gals look like the hulk in comparison to all those fragile, thin ladies strutting around in Harajuku and Shibuya i got some tea from another Student. i never regreted drinking tea that much.. oh the cramps...

Lena, I get you are no longer a teenager, and know better now, but for the teenagers out there reading your comment, please, know the clothes sizes are not all about weight. It's your bone structure as well. For example, even when I'm at my best weight, I have naturally large shoulders and hips, so you guess → no pretty dresses for me. But you know what? A Korean friend once confirmed to me that she has similar problems when it comes to clothes. She, who doesn't look any bigger than the average Korean ladies. And last time I went to buy skinny male jeans for myself, the (Korean) woman working at the shop showed me the jeans she was wearing and said "look, it's this model from the male section". She wasn't overweight or even chubby either, and she wasn't even as tall as me. So, girls (and boys) don't let the fashion industry bring you down. I KNOW it's difficult (been there, still there, still struggling), but you find a way.

When I fasted for 48 hours and took two mega doses of laxatives for my recent colonoscopy I had the best flat stomach ever! I was soooo hot. And hungry. And on the toilet. But if anyone had come in to the bathroom I'm sure they would have said I was loookiiiiing gooood.

I feel like wanting to be thin is not inherently wrong, i know what i'm worth and if i want to use my free time trying to become hot that's my choice. The big problem is that the wrong and unhealty methods to do it are insanely advertised, everybody tries to sell you miracolous potions, tools or bizzare diets. I lost 35 libs since 2016, there are no cheats, i went to a doctor who teached me how to eat better (not less) and than to a personal trainer to learn how to exercise, if someone tell you that there are easier ways they lie.

Yeah but to many people, being thin (or what we consider thin) is simply not healthy. For instance, my sisters took after my father, in that they are rather stocky. Not fat or anything. Just rather sturdily built let's say. One of them tried really hard to be "thin" once. She failed and almost ruined her health doing so. So yes, sometimes wanting to be thin is inherently wrong. And remember that you're only hot to flatter your own ego. ;)

Detox c**p isn't real guys!! Your liver and kidneys are your filters and detoxes your body for you automatically!! Didn't school teach you this! Companies and businesses wants to make money off of people because they know you will believe them through advertisement and such! Do your research people before buying any detox stuff. It doesn't work and your wasting your money!

Khole Kardashian is famous because she is thin and her sister took a fat c**k and placed it on the internet. She has no other qualities other than being thin and pretty. Don't try to make a hoe a housewife and don't hate on her because she is a vapid whore who offers nothing to society. Some women are nothing more than a pretty face and if that is what makes them them then let it be. Stop trying to push your ideals on everyone. If anyone is taking advice from Cardi B, Khole Kardashian or Iggy Azela on to what they should be putting in their bodies then they deserve to s**t themselves in public. Instead of trying to save the world by hating on celebs how about you take what little fame you have and create and alternative to these teas, make millions and pay these dumb hoes to promote your safe and healthy products?

I love Jameela because she did a news report about the immoral hair weave industry and the exploitation that goes along with it. I wish more black (or anyone else wearing regular hair pieces) women would consider having a look at it. She’s right about the diet pills too. But those last three photos were pure cringe. “37 pounds of grit” lol girl no. Embarrassing.
