The photos included the “black-ish” star flaunting her legs and slim physique as she took numerous shots sitting on the bathroom counter. In the final two images, Ross gave fans a side and complete view of her attire while she posed in front of the sink. 

In addition to the upload, Ross wrote the caption, “Feelin’ myself!” As fans viewed the star’s post, many flooded Ross’ comment section with compliments. 

“@traceeellisross TRACEE!!!! You making summer shine you super bad.”

“Confidence, with several sides of humility go a long way; at least to me. Feel on girl. Nice pics Tracee.”

“You look amazing my dear love you and your style.”

“So you like just wake-up and say, ‘let me bless my followers before brunch!?'”

“Iconic!!!! From the face to the outfit to the phone case, yasss!”

Among the previous remarks, others brought up Ross’ legs. One wrote, “Your legs are a national treasure! Tina Turner’esque. That’s high praise, and true.” Another said, “Them legs (Heart eyed emoji)” A third Instagram user stated, “Beautiful woman with beautiful legs.”

In the past, Ross revealed how she maintained her toned stature. In 2015 during an interview with Vibe magazine, the actress credited fitness instructor Tracy Anderson’s workouts for her “lean” body. 

She said, “I do the Tracy Anderson method a lot… I do love Tracy Anderson, the blasting music. I love that it changes all the time. I love that she really sculpts a workout for my body. I feel lean. One of my favorite things is that she doesn’t get me cut up. There’s still some jiggle. I love jiggle.”

Ross also mentioned in the interview that yoga, stair exercises, and ballet-inspired workouts were other factors that contributed to her figure. 

Still independent.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

The wider picture isn't any steadier. 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, it's rarely the ones built to center a Black perspective from the ground up 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.
