Tracee Ellis Ross‘ fans were left in awe of her latest look after the actress showcased her all-black ensemble in an Instagram upload.

In the post from Tuesday, Dec. 7, Ross shared various photos and behind-the-scenes videos as she prepped and attended the People’s Choice Awards, which aired the same night.

In addition to the compliments, other social media users brought up how the star used a bathroom sink during her poses. One wrote, “Foot in the Sink, Drip. okay, I’m done. Another said, “Yes foot in the sink, loving it.”

A third individual expressed how Ross deserves an award for making use of the bathroom sink in the photos: “You deserve an award for making the bathroom sink an accessory.”

In the same Instagram post, Ross also gave fans an inside look at what went on as she took her bathroom photos. The clip begins with an unidentified camerawoman saying as Ross starts to strike a pose, “Come on foot!”

The unnamed woman then instructed the actress to kick her legs up in the air as the video continued. The person said, “Give me a kick.” While kicking, Ross compared her movements to choreographer Mia Michaels. “It’s a Mia Michaels Kick.”

Toward the end of the recording, the unidentified person showed appreciation for Ross’ “core strength” as she moved her legs in various positions. The video ended with the star making her way down from the sink and saying, “not bad, right.”

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.
