Janelle James Grades Outfits From 'Abbott Elementary' 

Ava is one of the funniest TV characters of recent years. Janelle is brilliant, her comedic timing and line delivery - impeccable. I hope she gets a lot more awesome roles in her career

I love how she gave herself an A throughout! It's true, Ava is one of the best dressed characters!

janelle’s laughter is so contagious and iconic

She gave herself all A's, a true alpha

Her reaction to Janine's outfit is so on point for her character in the show lmao

Man I FELT that sigh when Janine came on screen 😂😂

I had no idea this was her first real acting role. She is amazing and holds her own so well around her seasoned coworkers

Did she end off with the words "Janelle'd it"? Because if so I love her even more 😂😂😂

“Janine is a treat for the eyeballs” 😂

All of Ava's clothing is an A+. She always eats in whatever she has on. Janelle is so talented in how she was able to bring Ava to life.

It’s fun watching a new celeb become more and more relaxed and self-assured as they get accustomed to doing press. Ms. James gets more insightful and honest with each interview. And she can’t help but to be funny!

how she talks about her own body with such ease and so gently / w such love is my favourite part about this !

Ava is the most entertaining antagonist in a very long time. The casting on this show is amazing. Everyone is perfect.

Of course the storm costume was iconic but her in that damned white fur coat with the orange dress, talking about I don't talk line... 😫😫 Ughhh I was not mentally ready for that moment!! Loved it!!

I love me some Janelle James. There’s not been a break out character on an ensemble comedy like Ava since Sue on “Glee”! Every time she’s on screen she steals every scene. Her comedic timing is impeccable. Next season give her ALL the awards! 🤗

I love that she referenced her version of storm being the most accurate in live action form. The girlies that get it, get it! I see you sis. You were verrrry accurate! haha

Its crazy how this is her first real role .She plays it perfectly so funny and talented.

Janelle trying to find compliments for janine's outfits😂

lmao the sigh when she saw janine's outfit

Janelle is an introvert playing an extrovert lol

I never thought I'd love a character like Ava because I'm all about peace, kindness and love, but somehow, even though Ava says some things that are totally "out there" for lack of a better expression, she still makes you fall in love with her because of her crazy, fun personality. Quinta did an amazing job with creating Janelle's character and Janelle is the perfect actress to bring Ava to life!

"I don't speak line" was crazy 😂😂

Ava giving herself straight A's is so on character 😂 LOL Seriously though she does so well with this role! It's chaotic & entertaining AF 😊

You better not say you don't have a model's build! You are gorgeous, funny, quick with perfect comedic timing. Every time Ava enters the room my mind is blown. The outfits are perfection and she commands that space!

the blue dress w the gold chains was S-tier styling. easily my favorite fit from anyone throughout both seasons

when she says "i have this body for a long time, i know how to dress myself" this is goals

She's perfect as Ava. Always has the funniest lines

Janelle is TOOO FRIGGIN' funny in this role. Her outfits carry her through as well. Who would even expect their school principal would come in costume along with their staff for Halloween.

Janelle as Ava is the epitome of excellent casting.

I hope she gets an Emmy next award season

Can't wait for Janelle James to win her emmy

LOVE the life Janelle breathes into Ava's character - fav Abbott character and that's hard with such a talented cast that always brings it. LOVE that she gave some background info on Storm's costume & shared the comparison between the two (Marvel nerd, here). Janelle/Ava are such a comfort to have in life right now

That red santa suit KILLED. I saw it live and immediately started searching for it online. Flawless!

Janelle's comic timing steals every scene she is in, not sure if she's a more horrible boss than Michael Scott but she's more loveable for surr

The entire cast of Abbott Elementary are truly outstanding in every way, but Janelle's fantastic portrayal of Ava is a delight to behold.

i had a good laugh watching her. the way she roasts everybody, especially janine , a total unapologetic iconic queen

Her giggle is precious! 🤗

What a QUEEN. Love this woman, wishing all the success in the world to her, just looking at her face makes me happy ❤

Rich-Maroon hair, plain black dress, bronze-shimmering skin, simple black eyeliner, metallic silver nails, curvaceous body, charisma-oozing Libra personality, quick witted mind and the cherry on top the subtle yet risqué *SENSE OF HUMOR* ... #JanelleJames ⭐️ From #Gemini with platonic love 😂😌💋

I smiled this entire interview ❤ I love Ava’s looks every episode so I love that someone else’s sees what I see

She did Storm justice ❤

6:19 “I believe i was eating a lemon tart when they called my name” LOL

They have to add Janelle’d it! To a scene if they haven’t already 😂

Ava is hands down such a genius, lovable character and Janelle plays her soo soo right, even though as a person is so different. I hope Janelle goes on to continue her career. She is very much capable of playing all sorts of mainstream and contrasting, unique roles. Would love to see her flourish. 😌🖤

That Storm outfit was 🔥🔥🔥🔥 I'd not previously heard of Janelle before Abbott, but she's funny and beautiful and I'm glad she's had this opportunity to shine. Quinta is very talented and has put together a wonderful show.

Tyler is so cute clapping in the background when Janelle accepted her award 🥺

I've been a fan of her comedy for years, I'm so glad she's getting her flowers, and on one of the best network sitcoms OF ALL TIME, PERIOD. Also loving her in that red hair, she is always gorgeous.

"That's Ava being nice..." lol We love you Janelle! Thanks for keeping us laughin waiting on your Emmy next, Sis!

She seems so natural on camera. I’m so surprised she hasn’t acted more prior to Abbott!

Principal Ava costume as Storm is so very iconic!

Love Janelle. Her character is so familiar to her. Excellent actress 👏🏾

I love Ava, and her timing is perfect. Continue to make us laugh. Each cast member is great. I love the show

Ava is my favourite TV character since Wilhelmina from Ugly Betty. And her reading Janine for filth at each turn is the cherry on top. 😂😂😂

She kills the Ava Character 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 love her on Abbott “ I don’t speak Line” 😂 classic

i love her, i hope she gets more recognition and roles. she absolutely nails Ava

the styling in season 2 for Ava was 10/10. She always looked great but s2 really took it to another level!

Janelle’d it 😂🤣 I love it and I love her 🙌🏾🔥

5:44 the laugh 😭😭 ugh love janelle so damn much

Janelle with the X-Men Facts!!! MY HEART! 💘

I love Janelle - she is legit hilarious 😂😂😂 i love how she just kept gocong Ava's outfits A's 😂

Abbott has made me love so many of these actors and actresses. I truly hope it brings them more gigs so I can see them even more

She is amazing. I can't wait to see her in more stuff. She has got so much talent to show us.

She is naturally funny without having to try so hard! Great looks!

Her laugh is infectious 😅

I love her. I pray that I get to see her on more shows and movies in the future.

Basically Ava and Janelle never miss! Fashions are on point

I want to see her getting EMMY THIS YEAR

All of the characters on Abbott are so funny but nobody has me laughing as much as Janelle as Ava Coleman, she completely kills it every time

The principal with very curious principles. Love Ava!

Janine is consistent with her wardrobe choices and what matters is that she is herself and happy with her choices.

"Sorry, I don't speak line." has to be one of the greatest lines ever. Definitely attributed to Janelle!!!

can i just say this deep red hair with the silver nails is also an absolute look

I really enjoyed the commentary 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽💕

I fell in love with this show the first time I saw the trailer. ❤ Congratulations on all the success.

Ava is my favorite character. I love her! 😂♥️

She is so fine. Ngl, if she was my principal, I would NEVER miss a day of school.

the blue dress with the chains is my fave! she should wear that colour with her red hair - would kill!

Just saw the first two season. Excellent show with an excellent cast. I can't imagine anybody else playing Ava and Ava is my favorite on the show. BTW, I do love the way they dress her character on the show and Janelle wore the heck out of that Oscar De La Renta red suit!

i will be watching everything she does forever.. such a great actress and comedian

She is so awkwardly opposite of her character. I'm glad y'all let her talk alone on here. Her comedy is impeccable.

Love love love this show and her character!!

After Jackee Harry and Tiffany Haddish, we just love a black female comedian/scene stealer with a raspy voice and a killer body 😊 I so hope she wins an Emmy next year.

I just love her 😂❤

I love me some Janelle!! She’s the perfect storm of doing TOO MUCH! I love it!!!

Janine is a treat for the eyeballs.....I'm gonna have to give this a C. This was definitely Ava rating her lol 😂

I love her and she always looks stunning!

Ava has become one of my favs! After that episode where she subbed for Janine I developed a soft spot for her for sure

I love her fashion assessment of her wardrobe on the show.

Ava is the funniest character...she has the best lines and the best delivery

She’s literally one of my favorite actresses on tv rn!!!

I just stumbled on an Ava montage on YT and that made me decide to watch the whole series 🎉🎉🎉

She always looks amazing

Omg i loveeee her character and her energy ❤😂

We need more Janelle!!

Love her! Definitely an Ava superfan

I love the JANELLED IT!! at the end. So clever. I just love her.

god i love her so much

WOW that hair color looks amazing on her. It’s the perfect shade

Janelle is EVERYTHING ❤

This show is hilarious cause of Ava!! She is really out there and I am here for it! Love the whole cast! LOVE Janelle’s laugh soo much!
