But why hasn't Tracee hosted SNL yet? Thats the only snub that matters

[@mico70]

Agreed

[@susancoley2874]

She would be amazing on SNL

[@vincentmarchese8202]

In person Tracee is The nicest sweetest Woman ❤❤❤❤

[@xcelmateo1956]

She would’ve been famous even w/o Diana Ross being her mom. She’s got the IT factor for entertainment

[@telikaandfam]

Diana put it in her genes

[@haroldsmither8378]

Absolutely! But it is obvious that MISS ROSS taught her children to stand in her ILLUMINATION and NOT her shadow....but you are absolutely right, she has the "IT" factor all by herself!

[@cj3726]

Looking just like her mom. Beautiful

[@dashby2189]

I fell in love with her when she played in Girlfriends.

[@quintonryan3290]

Did she say Power Surge!!!! 😂😂😂 sent me outta here 😂😂😂

[@andreserickson6963]

Why did it take me until now to realize how alluring and funny she is, as a performer and as a person

[@samdakid6559]

She’s a whole vibe

[@sunshinee321]

one thing i LOVE about tracee, is her sense of humor. she seems sooo fun, so silly, so bright, & seems like she sees the positive in ANYTHING! i love this woman so much. practically my idol 😭💕💕💕💕

[@JanetMarcum-o7r]

As a menopausal woman, I prefer “power surge” over “personal summer.” Personal summer is way too euphemistic.🥵🤬

[@imnotdacreator7193]

She looks amazing!

[@RGTismeJoy]

Tracie’s comedic timing is so amazing ❤❤❤

[@nleanne]

And the same to you. Such a lovely sentiment ❤️!!

[@sunny5ma]

The one enjoyable guest of the month - ✅️.

[@riverrhodes7394]

It was probably the disproportionate size of her bug eyes tbh

[@mariaaliciabustosmontalva8478]

If anyone were to take the rol of Nefertity... she's the one. I think she looks so similar to the egyptian queen. She is very beautiful.

[@derrykev]

What’s she best known for? First time I’m seeing her and she’s very funny!

[@thehitman6963]

She looks Amazing 😻

[@EnzoPontrelli]

Love you!!! Tracee!!!🎉❤

[@vee5315]

I love her

[@larondapaden7589]

I’ve always wanted her to play Lucy

[@Blessed-jz7fh]

She doesn't have the talent like Lucy can't touch her
Not a fan,

[@mariem7174]

Can you imagine Tracee and Taika Waititi in a movie or interview together?

[@Floridacoastwriter]

Does Ross have a thyroid problem or is his/her eyes naturally so buggy? I'm being serious. She/he got some spooky eyes.

[@audreyjohnson1019]

She's very talented, but her hair products didn't do a thing for my kinky hair. Hope others had better luck. 😔

[@vetgirl71]

Proud of Tracey , very talented and funny! 😊👏🏾❤️

[@chondageorge3379]

Tracee, Tracee, Tracee, you can do no wrong!

[@AsherMolina]

This was one of the best interviews
