Everyone knows Tracee Ellis Ross is the funny woman about town. As the star of ABC’s hit show Black-ish, Tracee has made a name for herself by simply making folks laugh out loud.

Tracee, 43, assumed The Supreme meant her younger brother Evan, but realized it was her, her mother wanted. The last time Tracee sang with her mom was when she was a child.
Filled with nerves, the curly-hair chanteuse turned her back to the audience just to get her bearings and then began to sing.
