Leslie F*cking Jones

De: Leslie Jones, Chris Rock - foreword

Narrado por: Leslie Jones, Chris Rock

A NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER with 5+ hours of bonus material not found in the print version and read by Leslie Jones. AudioFile Magazine awarded the recording an ‘Earphones Award’, saying: “No listener can leave this memoir unaffected as Jones laughs and sobs, sharing the highs and lows, joys and sorrows of her full life.”

Hey you guys, it’s Leslie. I’m excited to share my story with you.

Now, I’m gonna be honest: Some of the details might be vague because a b*tch is fifty-five and she’s smoked a ton of weed. But while bits might be a touch hazy, I can promise you the underlying truth is REAL. Whether I’m talking about my childhood growing up in the South, my early stand-up days driving from gig to gig through the darkest parts of our country and praying I wouldn’t get murdered, what Chris Rock told Lorne Michaels, that time I wanted to shoot Whoopi Goldberg on SNL, and yeah, I’ll tell you all about Ghostbusters and the nudes and Supermarket Sweep and The Daily Show . . . I’m sharing it all here. It’s not easy being a woman in comedy, especially when you’re a tall-*ss Black woman with a trumpet voice. I have to fight so that no one takes me for granted, and no one takes advantage. These are the stories that explain why. (Cue the Law & Order theme.)

Keeping it real!

I loved listening to her memoir. She was honest, f’ing hysterical and shared a great deal of wisdom. I love memoirs that you actually get to know the person and not just their persona. She had an interesting life. It’s filled with joy, laughter, sadness, revelations, tragedy, successes and lots of life lessons. Loved listening to her tell her story .

What fun

Wow. This is surprisingly emotional but equally hilarious. Tender and raw. Jones is an entertaining reader, frequently laughing, crying along with us. Loved it

Amazing!

I laughed and cried - entertaining stories and a beautiful soul. Highly recommend! Love Leslie Jones!

Lesle "F'ing Undeniable" Jones!

I am so glad I decided to listen to Leslie's book on Audible. Her narrating her book, which is probably great regardless, made this experience HILLARIOUS! Not the sad parts of course, but you get what I'm sayin. I loved this book. Congratulations Ms. Jones on an amazing career and one funny f'ing book. You most definitely are Undeniable.

Undeniably Good

Do I need to say it? Listening to an extra seven hours of Leslie Jones is worth the price of this publication. I cried more than I expected to and I laughed like I thought I would. This is the best experience I’ve had all year.

Leslie is a star.

I’ve never been more entertained by an audio book before, never laughed this hard or gotten choked up so easily. Hands down my favorite autobiography ever.

Real talk

Hearing Leslie talk through her triumphs and challenges with such wonderful wit and insight was a welcome listen. Her descriptions of her stand up and experiences through life are exceptional. Highly recommend👍

So much fun!

I laughed and laughed and cried too. This book is so much fun and a really good story as well! Loved it!

Honesty and Humor

I liked the raw honesty and Leslie Jones’ wittiness in this audiobook. Having Chris Rock do the prologue was also informative and funny.
As I listened to the book, it was as if I was having a conversation with Leslie Jones. At one point, I was listening to it on a flight and started to doze off thinking I was talking to her!

So real, a must listen!!

Leslie Jones is so real. I absolutely loved this audiobook excellent storytelling if I would have bought the book I don’t know if my experience would’ve been the same, listening to her stories, and all of the ad-lib that I’m sure is not in the book, made it an absolute joy to listen to. I could not stop listening. She read down to the final credits and it was worth the 16 hours or so that I listened to her. Tell her story. absolute masterpiece, very interesting subjects and point of view.
