Jenifer Lewis has appeared in 400 episodic TV shows, 68 movies, and four Broadway shows. In her new memoir, ‘Walking in My Joy,’ the actor reveals why all of Hollywood can “kiss [her] ass.”
You open the book with a very colorful story about being called into Kenya Barris’s office for a meeting to pitch you on a. But at first, you didn’t understand why he was calling you into a meeting. You thought he might say something out of pocket, or even fire you. Why did you think that?
Well, I had never been called to the office! I am, after all, Jenifer Lewis! Bitch, you want me? Come the fuck over here! I’m the one that’s in my sixties. I’m not coming to you. [] One of the reasons I had reservation is because as a child, I was always going to the office. I’m like, what the fuck’s going on? I’m being fired? Come on, nigga, what you got? The gay boys will come burn this bitch down. Fire me, see what the fuck happens.
I didn’t belong on a set like that, as good the show was; I never saw it, but everybody said it was good. I didn’t belong there. Now I’m doing a show that actually has the word “love” in the title.. I love that. And I’ve given such an amazing performance. I say that because I know it is my best work.It is. And they let me run with it. They’re using every inch of my talent.
