Amelia Dimoldenberg Reveals She Started "Chicken Shop Date" Because She'd Never Been on a Date

[FORARIESONLY]

British Amelia has to be absolutely DYING from all the physical contact

[quietkinthecorner]

I am British and if someone tried to grab my hand like that repeatedly I'd physically cringe. Amelia is doing so well here

[yfoog]

Drew is like that girl in the club who is on MDMA and just spilling her heart out to you on the pavement

[Tara-wpzc]

I love how Amelia never changes herself no matter what show she's on

[Jessica-ffrn]

Amelia looked so okay and not okay with touch at the same time.

[rayonlinee]

waching this made me overwhelmed for her 😭😭😭

[AA-qbni]

As a Brit who's watched Amelia since the beginning, I'm so proud of her for making it big 🙌🏼

[eggloria]

LOLOL i'm crying Amelia's humor keeps going over their heads

[lonbub]

I love Amelia and am so happy that she’s everywhere now 🎉

[peachpeach]

I hope it was Andrew Garfield she kissed! ❤

[Ketaminogue]

This is, how they say, a maximised joint slay

[DanDan-qubu]

"With tongue?" 😂😂 Drew asking the important questions. Thank you 🙏

[manoloortiz]

Amelia is going to be the face of dead pan comedy in years to come

[koalapillars]

3:32 Drew resting her elbow on her coffee cup in order to keep holding Amelia's hand is all I can pay attention to now

[calumsanderson]

Not the audience chanting "chicken"...

[vanessajadegallagher]

Amelia's wonderful! Glad to see her succeeding in her career! :) x

[yfoog]

As a Brit I feel like this is oil mixing with milk, but hey ho well done amelia for getting through that and none of them getting your jokes lol.

[toniemcfadden]

Because she's come so far in her life and became strong for herself, it probably was harder than heck, she grew up in southern California like me.. drew is a strong woman

[zoesheena]

Go Amelia!! You deserve all the success into the world!

*"Honestly, I feel like Amelia Dimoldenberg on Chicken Shop Date whenever I try to talk to someone new—just sitting there like, 'So... do you come here often?' with the most awkward energy ever, and I love her for normalizing my pain!!* 😃😃
