More quotes by Tracee Ellis Ross
Black-ish is really a show about an American family and these are some of the topics that come up - for all of us, in different ways - and we get to see how this family is walking through it.
Tracee Ellis Ross
When I'm not working, I spend a lot of time on my hair. When it's time for my hair to get some rest, I either wear it in a ponytail, bun or my favorite milkmaid braid.
Tracee Ellis Ross
Just embrace your hair! I really feel like I am not an advocate for people doing what I do. I'm an advocate for people discovering and finding what works for them.

Because of my unique experience as my mom's child, the beginning of my journey was more about me trying to figure out who I was on my own. My mom is one of the greatest moms and so supportive of all my siblings and of all of us being who we are, and not who she wanted us to be.

[Black-ish creator] Kenya Bariss wrote on Girlfriends. We've been friendly since then. He sent me [the pilot] and said, I wrote it for you. But I know what that means in this industry.

One of the things I've realized is how portable God is. No really, He's everywhere!
Tracee Ellis Ross
I hope they look at me and think, 'That lady looks like she accepts herself'.

In some of the darkest and hardest moments, there is always a part of me that is okay. And I can always access that part of me.

The two things that I thought were really interesting about this character [Bow] for me were that she actually loved her husband, and he loved her. The comedy was not coming from the fact that they hated each other. Which is what television couples are usually based on.

There is a way to be a woman, ask for what we deserve and be able to negotiate.
Tracee Ellis Ross
My mom helped me. I was very shy growing up, but my shyness sort of manifested in a big personality.
Tracee Ellis Ross
One of the photographers was like, Can you stop talking and try to look sexy for a minute?
Tracee Ellis Ross
I wanted Bow's hair and makeup and clothing to look like a woman who has four children, a career, and a full life. For example, she won't wear eyeshadow unless she's going out. Because it takes a lot of time to put eyeshadow on. She's a woman who has style, but it's all about functionality - she grabs stuff from her closet.
Tracee Ellis Ross
Somehow [Kenya Bariss] has figured out how to explore these very weighty, sticky, sharp topics, and still be funny and not make fun of the topic.
Tracee Ellis Ross
I just want to say this. I love being a woman. I love playing a woman. I love being a whole and full woman. I am more than my parts, and we all are. And we all, as women, need to continue to change our gaze from how we are seen to how we are seeing. We are full and beautiful women, and let us live in that.
Tracee Ellis Ross
I'm trying to find my own version of what makes me feel beautiful.
Tracee Ellis Ross
I am learning every day to allow the space between where I am and where I want to be to inspire me and not terrify me.
Tracee Ellis Ross
I never heard my mom say, Not now, I'm busy. But I did have extraordinary experiences that I'm very aware were extraordinary. I mean, I traveled Europe before I was 12 years old, had been to the White House numerous times. Andy Warhol photographed me Michael Jackson called our house.
Tracee Ellis Ross
I want to be awake. I want to choose kindness, live & let live. I want joy, gratitude, and peace today.
Tracee Ellis Ross
The clothing, the makeup, the freedom of expression in [the models'] bodies. It was Linda and Christy and Naomi at the time. So I modeled before college.
