The gorgeous Tracee Ellis Ross gave a masterclass on aging beautifully as she turned 50 this year, and it starts with doing things that make you happy! The comedienne is currently in Jamaica on vacation, and we know that due to her Instagram update earlier this week.
As if her stunning face wasn’t impressive enough, Ross flaunted her toned physique in a floral bikini, leaving us envious. A few hours ago, the actress shared a fun clip filled with her famous wit, and we can’t wait to tell you all about it below.
Living It Up In The Caribbean
Ross posed in a colorful floral bikini, accentuating her fit physique. The actress’s bikini top was a triangle string design with warm colors, while her bottoms were mismatched in cool blue hues. She looked like a magazine cover model stepping out of the lake with water droplets glistening off her body.
Her naturally curly hair fell to her neck while her face glistened with water without makeup. Not that she needed any since the actress has glowing skin. Kate Hudson approved of her location, saying it’s the best place.
Avoiding A Potential Horror Movie Scene
The hilarious video came about a day later, with Ross sharing the behind-the-scene moment of her magazine-worthy shots. She wanted to make a “first dip” video for the internet but changed her mind upon peering into the lake.
In her words, it looked like a horror movie scene waiting to happen, especially when a seaweed grazed her foot. Ross rallied for the Instagram video but didn’t stay long in the water as she regretted not choosing a pool.
Older, Wiser, And More Confident
Ross bared it all for her 50th birthday as she celebrated five decades of life and over 30 years of industry influence. The actress said her younger self wouldn’t believe how far she’s come, but she wouldn’t change it for anything.
She shared a slideshow of her journey through the years, and it’s overwhelming how much Ross has accomplished in her career. She did several interviews leading to that moment and explained how she’s more fulfilled and contented with the life she created.
Wearing Her Black Hair With Pride

Ross said she’s wiser and more comfortable in her skin, as we’ve seen on her Instagram. She also launched a streaming show with other powerful black women in the entertainment industry, where they spoke about their identities through hair.
The actress is one of the most famous African-American women who wears her natural hair everywhere and looks stunning in it, whether it’s a curl out or cornrows.
