Since her 2025 tour, she has launched one of Substack’s most-loved stacks, A Low Desire To Please for her essays on friendship, ambition, beauty culture, and everything the industry would rather she kept to herself, an award-winning comedy podcast Wrong Turns, and poked the bear calling Botox “a prison for facial expression”, and Hollywood’s women “so obedient, so compliant”.
2026 tested her, too. A sudden illness forced the first cancellation of her 18-year career, and she spent weeks writing from a hospital bed with the candour her readers have come to expect, urging them to listen to their bodies. It is the same conviction behind Move For Your Mind, the movement she founded to reclaim exercise for genuine wellbeing, rather than a mirror.
Returning to stage in 2027, in conversation with special guests (and her audience!), Jameela examines the Prison of Perfection: fame, love, failure, body image, and the impossible standards sold to us by the media and the algorithm, with acerbic wit and heart-wrenching honestly.
“I’ve always been passionate about the concept of helping the underdog. It just doesn’t make sense to me as to what kind of person would take a huge platform and not use it to do something, to change something, to help people.”
Don’t miss your chance to hear from this savant of cultural commentary, and ask your own burning questions.
