We've all been guilty of going to work when we're a little bit worse for wear (take your sick days, people!) but actress Jameela Jamil took that one step further this weekend when she showed up to an event with frozen peas on her face following oral surgery.
Jameela appeared at a PaleyFest panel on Friday for The Misery Index, a new show she'll be hosting for TBS...and it turns out the name was pretty fitting. She revealed that she had just had three teeth taken out, as well as jaw and gums surgery the day before. In an Instagram video, she showed herself on the way to the event rocking a bag of peas.
The Good Place star even kept the peas on during the panel and later posted a photo from the event, joking that she was "shitfaced" and on pain killers the whole time. She later apologized in a tweet, saying that she was sorry if she didn't make any sense during the panel.
"I’m so sorry to everyone at the panel yesterday if I didn’t make any sense. I was somewhat wasted on pain killers. But I had a BLAST. And I love @thetenderloins so much for being such a support during this dental disaster! I want to work with them forever #TandooriTenderloin," she wrote.
It seems like Jameela did finally get some rest following the panel, as she posted a photo on her Twitter on Sunday of her still-swollen jaw while wearing PJs. Stars need to recover, too!
