How Jameela Jamil channeled her inner diva for Bumper in Berlin

Jameela Jamil has a pop star moment.

The right place alum transforms into German pop princess Gisela in new series Peacock Pitch Perfect: Bumpers in Berlina role she knew she simply couldn’t turn down.

“I just have to throw myself into this completely different woman,” she said in an exclusive interview with E! New’ Francesca Amiker. “And she’s so extra, and the wigs and the makeup, the outfits and everything about her.”

The 36-year-old also admitted her obsession with playing ‘delusional, narcissistic nightmares’ like Gisela, adding that they are ‘the most fun to play’.

“I couldn’t have had more inspiration to draw from when I was living in Hollywood,” she said. “And so, it was just a joy. I was given so much freedom.”

Diving into the role required not being ashamed, especially when it came to filming Gisela’s Pretzel Fest performance. “I’m in lederhosen and just tapping my absolute lack of ass,” she said, “surrounded by the most incredible dancers.”
