I was in Vancouver shooting something and me, trying to be a baller, I was like, ‘I need some new sunglasses.’ So I bought these Christian Dior metallic, reflective sunglasses and they were like $700. What is the worst purchase you ever made? Don’t come for me, because I feel like I’m Anderson Cooper. But I’ve also been bingeing Sense8 and The Leftovers right now. I can just watch Game of Thrones right now. Over Christmas break, I rewatched every episode of Game of Thrones because that is my all-time favorite. The Handmaid’s Tale was the bomb, but it wouldn’t let me binge it because Hulu is mean. Jazmyn likes fashion, but she’s not wearing Alexander McQueen to cook dinner like Julie is. I’ll put on jeans with a white T-shirt and an expensive purse and call it a day.
I will spend some dollars on a pair of jeans. And Jazmyn’s clothes are not as cool as Julie’s. Shout-out to Tiffany, our costume designer, because Julie’s clothes are always on point. Julie has great fashion sense, and I’m sure Jazmyn does, too. “So if you see me riding around town with my falcon doors, just say, ‘What’s up?’ “ I was a sales assistant in the Chicago office. My first job out of college was at HBO, so if I wasn’t on an HBO show, I’d probably be an executive at HBO.
If you weren’t acting, what would you be doing? The awe has definitely worn off in 3 1/2 years just because I know him and I love him. If you need to talk to him, you can just call.’ I was starstruck that day, and my blood pressure was probably very high. I still have to pinch myself and say, ‘Girl, you have Dwayne’s phone number. I will tell you the first table read that I had for Ballers, the very first one after I booked it, they sat me directly across from Dwayne, and the entire time I was in that table read my knees would not stop shaking. President Obama was the most starstruck I had been. I’m the closest with Donovan Carter, who plays Vernon Littlefield. I was telling them it was so fun to be out with my brothers, and Dulé was like, ‘Just so we’re clear, I’m not your brother.’ And now 3 1/2 years later, he’s my fiancé. It’s funny because 3 1/2 years ago when we first started shooting, I went out with all the guys … just a bunch of us.
Well, I’m engaged to one of them, so that one is definitely not my brother. “I was telling them it was so fun to be out with my brothers, and Dulé was like, ‘So we’re clear, I’m not your brother.’ And now … he’s my fianc é.”Īre there any actors you’re closest to? Or are they all just treated like brothers? Working with a bunch of guys is fun in general, but things get wild when all of us are together. It’s a lot of shenanigans that go on when all of us are together in a party scene. They only showed a little of it, but I tell you, when you get all of us together, the whole cast and a whole bunch of people at a pool party, it gets weird. We had this one party scene last season and it was Ricky’s ( John David Washington) birthday. What was one of the craziest moments you’ve had on set? And that is the thing that I’m most proud of and most excited about, what the writers have done and what I’ve been able to do with this character. When you think of a football player’s wife, you automatically think of negative stuff, and you don’t really think that this is just a doctor who loves her husband and supports him no matter what he does. It’s always good for a black woman to be able to break a stereotype. Tweets: IG: your favorite part about playing Julie Greane? Life can get a bit hectic in Hollywood, but that doesn’t stop Simon from making time for the important things, including binge-watching her favorite shows, winning political arguments, and being engaged to and planning her wedding with fellow Ballers star Dulé Hill. She’s a doctor, and many people don’t realize she’s a doctor because she never went to work.” one thing to be a wife and another thing to be a mother, but it’s a whole other thing to be a wife, mother and have your own things. You see her go to work for the first time, which is very important for me.
“But this season, she kind of steps out on her own. “The first two seasons, was really just Charles’ backbone, trying to help him decide what he’s supposed to do … and that definitely goes on in season three too,” Simon says of her character. With the third season of Ballers underway, Simon is looking forward to showing viewers a different side of her character, Julie Greane, who has played the role of a supportive wife to Charles Greane ( Omar Benson Miller), an ex-NFL player who struggles to find his identity off the football field.

Though the year has been a whirlwind for actress Jazmyn Simon, it’s one the 36-year-old co-star of the hit HBO series Ballers would not trade for the world.
