Tracee Ellis Ross is once again at the center of social media buzz, this time due to a nearly-nude photo shared from Paris Fashion Week.
The 51-year-old star, celebrated for her roles in “Black-ish” and “Girlfriends,” is making headlines as her topless selfie garners both praise and criticism online.
The photo, initially posted in July 2023, features Ross covering her breasts with one arm while her bare stomach is on display.
The snapshot was taken during her attendance at the Schiaparelli fashion show, where she was spotted front row with rapper Cardi B.
Reactions have been polarized. Critics argue that the photo is inappropriate for her age, with one commenter stating:
“Aren’t y’all older women supposed to be setting the example? Put your shirt back on! The hell is this,” on Spiritual World’s Instagram page. Another user chimed in with, “She fine as hell, but at her age, this ain’t it.”
On the flip side, Ross’ supporters are defending her right to embrace her body confidently.
“She hit that age of I don’t care what anyone thinks and said this body gone get seen today. I love that for her. And she still got it,” one fan praised.
The Shade Room also saw support for Ross, with comments like:
“She looks good. Y’all gota stop [with] the ‘she old’ narrative. She livin life her way, and so should y’all.”
The debate extends beyond her recent photo. Ross previously sparked discussion with a 2021 Instagram post featuring her in a string bikini and has been open about her decision to remain single and childless.
In an interview with “We Can Do Hard Things” podcast, Ross shared her perspective on curating her own chosen family and embracing her independence.
Ross, who frequently shares her fitness journey and self-love affirmations on social media, remains a polarizing figure.
Her posts, including the latest from Paris, continue to ignite conversations about aging, body positivity, and personal expression.
