"What I appreciate about you is that everything you say is so memorable. You are like a modern-day Sophocles, referencing the ancient Greek tragedian, which Adams didn't seem to register. Instead, the two awkwardly smiled at one another as the camera panned back and forth. You know, I don't think people realize what's in a person's eyes, said Adams to break the silence. Oh gosh, Ziwe responded, sounding frustrated."
"She then tried to change the subject. No, go back to that for me, said Adams. Oh my goodness. I just don't want you to hit on me, or something that makes me uncomfortable, she said, to laughter from Adams. Whenever a male gives an authentic conversation, it's automatically hitting on you. I'm not hitting on you. I'm interacting with you."
Outgoing New York City Mayor Eric Adams conducted an interview with comedian and writer Ziwe Fumudoh. Ziwe praised Adams, calling his remarks memorable and comparing him to Sophocles. Adams commented on reading people's eyes and asked Ziwe to revisit his remark. Ziwe said she did not want him to hit on her or make her uncomfortable and tried to change the subject. The exchange included awkward smiles, laughter, and Adams insisting he was simply interacting and complimenting her energy. The interview segment was released Thursday and is available via Ziwe on YouTube.
