Jameela Jamil says three former lovers all made same comparison after sex with her
EXCLUSIVE: Actress admits her former lovers have dished out less than savoury verdicts on her love-making skills, even likening her to a memory foam mattress
Hollywood rising star Jameela Jamil could never be accused of sleeping her way to the top.
That’s because she is useless in bed – or so she reckons.
The 34-year-old funnywoman, who stars in Emmy-nominated US show The Good Place, admits her former lovers dished out less than savoury verdicts on her love-making skills, even likening her to a memory foam mattress.
“Sex in itself is so stupid,” she says. “The thrusting? What are we doing?
“I’m not amazing in bed. But I’ve got big boobs so I don’t have to be.
“Some of the reviews I’ve had… I’ve been told by three separate men that making love to me – and I think they meant this as a compliment – was like having sex with a memory foam mattress.
“I shift to any shape. It’s not that I’m bendy, it’s that I don’t have muscles anywhere but my heart. I’m like a human marshmallow with nipples.”
Jameela – in a relationship with singer James Blake, 31, since 2015 – also says her attempts to crack jokes in the bedroom don’t go down well.
Talking on podcast Conan O’Brien Needs a Friend, Jameela continues: “Mostly if I can just stay silent that’s enough because it’s my trying to insert comedy in the bedroom that goes down badly.”
In a “too much information” moment, Jameela relates a bedroom mishap that made her quip: “Unexpected item in bagging area.”
She says: “It was the angriest I’ve ever seen someone look.”
Best known as Tahani in Netflix series The Good Place, she found fame in the UK on T4, but her profile soared after moving to Hollywood.
