Romesh Ranganathan: 'The hustle mentality is bull****!'

Romesh Ranganathan hates the "hustle" mentality.

The 45-year-old comedian has fronted shows such as 'The Ranganation' and 'The Weakest Link' during his career and even won a BAFTA for his work but explained that even though his upcoming tour is called 'Hustle', he feels quite the opposite about working in the industry.

Speaking during his upcoming appearance on 'The Lateish Show with Mo Gilligan' - which will air on Channel 4 on Friday (09.06.23) at 10pm - he says: "It’s called hustle but the theme is kind of the opposite of that. I think the hustle mentality is a bit of bulls***. You know, those people who are like, ‘Do you know what you want to succeed?"

Romseh - who has Alex, Charlie, and Theo with his wife Leesa - went on to slam those who promote such an overly organised lifestyle and claim to have done more before 8am than anyone else before lambasting US reality superstar Kim Kardashian, who infamously told fans around the world that all they needed to do to succeed in life was to "get up off [their] a** and work hard.

He said: "What you need to do is get up at 5am, write down a list of things you want to do, go to bed for half an hour, get up at 6am, look at the first list, then go back to bed again, then eat a hearty breakfast, then get on the treadmill . . . And finally at 8am, I start my day and I’ve done more than most of these other p***ks have done before their breakfast’.

“Shut up, I’m so done with that bulls***t. Kim Kardashian saying, ‘My advice is to work hard’. Go f ***yourself.
