Okay. Tonight is a massive celebration for "The Good Place."

But it´s not so much of a celebration for us at home, because it´s the final season premiere this week.

-Blame Mike Schur. How was that last day on set?

And I never thought I would because I´m English, so I´m dead and cold inside.

But it really hit me when he walked towards me, as he said, "That´s a series wrap on Jameela Jamil,"

I was like, God. This man found me from nowhere.

He plucked me from obscurity. I´d never acted before.

And everything I´ve been able to do with my activism, everything I´m able to do in the world

is because this man just took a chance on me for no good reason.

And so it just killed me, and I cried and cried and cried all night,

and it felt sad to say goodbye to that wonderful cast and this magical show.

-Well, you´ll be reunited with them all tonight.

I don´t know if you´re going to like me saying this, but you have become a style icon.

-Oh. Really? -Absolutely. In your own right.

You always exude confidence and cool and comfort on a red carpet.

You´re working with Law Roach, a new stylist. Is that right?

-Yes, it´s our second time working together today, and he´s just a genius.

He´s the man behind the styling of Zendaya, who has been my style icon for five years.

And so it´s a real privilege to get to work with him, and he´s so creative.

I´m not turning up here not to be noticed.

-Oh, my God. You told me something really interesting at New York Fashion Week,

and it was about getting equal time in hair and makeup as your male costars.

Halfway through Season 1, I realized that the girls were getting in at like 4:45 or 4:30 in the morning,

And I realized that we had an hour and 45 minutes in hair and makeup.

And I just sort of went to the producers of "The Good Place," and I was like, "How ugly do you think I am?

I just need half an hour in hair and makeup.

And so I did my own makeup for the show, and someone else did my hair,

and I got the same amount of time, hair and makeup, as the boys.

´Cause I can´t be funny when I´m tired.

-I always do my own. -Okay. We need a close-up on this.

-Oh, God. I´ve been sweating like a criminal for hours.
