Looks like Leslie Jones may be done with commentating on the Olympics just days into live-tweeting the Beijing Winter Olympics 2022 started.
Jones has been recording herself and live-recapping the last few Summer and Winter Olympic Games on social media but she shared a post to Instagram letting her fans know she’s done fighting people who don’t want her comedic commentary.

“i m starting to feel like this should be my last olympics i [sic] live tweet,” she wrote on Instagram early Monday. “I’m tired of fighting the folks who don’t want me to do it. They block my videos and they get folks who think they can do it like me. And I’m tired of fighting them.”
Jones added, “I love the athletes and they love me doing it. And I know ya’ll love it. But now it’s gotten too hard. And no one is fighting for or with me. Soooo I guess I’ll leave it to the professionals. But thank you for all the love. #uptoyallnow.”
She captioned her post, “Leslie Jones does not stay anywhere I’m not welcomed.”
“I have watched olympics since I could walk lol. Me and my dad. So this is from my heart. Y’all should be asking @NBCSports why they don’t see that. And think they can replace me with just anyone. Again not saying I was first just saying it’s frustrating,” she wrote on Instagram.

Fans joined her comment section brought up how she should be a part of the peacock network and commentate on the Olympics how Snoop Dogg and Kevin Hart do. “Yeah your commentary is great and you should be doing this on Peacock like snoop and Kev!!!!!!,”
Jones responded, “You think Kevin and snoop give a f— about athletes and Olympics? Honestly I think this should be my last one. Its frustrating.”
