Tracee Ellis Ross Sets The Record Straight…Again
Tracee Ellis Ross is making one thing crystal clear: she is not pregnant. While appearing on ‘The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon’ to advertise her upcoming Broadway debut in ‘Every Sensible Thing,’ the 53-year-old addressed the viral speculation head-on. Tracee revealed she had been receiving congratulatory text messages that originally left her confused. “I’m like, ‘On the play? Thanks!‘” she joked before explaining that she later learned people believed she was expecting her first child. Shutting the rumors down once and for all, she told Fallon, “Which is hilarious. I’m not pregnant.“
Keeping the laughs going, Tracee poked fun at the web’s tendency to create its own narratives. “No, and I don’t understand how you get the preggers,” she quipped. “Now, ‘the pregnant’ I feel is different from just pregnant. I understand how you get pregnant. But ‘the pregnant’ is a thing they make up online when it’s obviously a slow news day.” Her lighthearted response quickly resonated with fans, lots of whom applauded her for addressing the rumors with wit as an alternative of frustration.
