“Your Light Always Shines BRIGHT. That’s Awesome…”

“I can hear your laugh through your smile.”

“We love this amazing laughter photo!”

“Gorgeous Queen! I love your smile.”

In addition to the positive remarks regarding Ross’ demeanor, several people complimented the “black-ish” star’s attire. One wrote, ” Absolutely gorgeous!!! That too is giving me life! All around beautiful!” Another said, “She’s done it again! Slayed us at 11 pm!! Stunning!!” An Instagram user pointed out how Ross has yet to fail a fashion “assignment.” That person stated, “LISTEN…YOU NEVER NOT PASS THE ASSIGNMENT BRAVO.”

In the past, Ross disclosed why fashion was an essential part of her life. She told CNN Style in 2019, “For me, fashion started as a way to protect myself — to have a bit of control over how the world perceives me. And I think, for many, that’s still the case. I think fashion has evolved for me personally into a form of creative expression.”

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
