Writer Calls Jill Scott America’s Most Attractive Celebrity After Fitness Transformation
Writer Maria Lloyd has called Jill Scott the most attractive celebrity in America, praising the actress’s fitness routine and acceptance of her natural curves.
The assessment was reported on Friday, May 16, 2014, as Scott’s changing appearance attracted favourable responses from fans.
A report by BlackDoctor.org described Scott as following a health-conscious workout programme while retaining her natural body shape. Her approach did not involve pursuing the “stick figure” physique often associated with female celebrities.
Lloyd, a writer for the dating website iDateDaily.com, described Scott as a welcome contrast to women in Hollywood and elsewhere who, she said, face pressure to remain thin to secure professional opportunities.
“Scott’s acceptance of her natural curves leaves the thousands of black women on my website cheering. Hollywood often makes us feel that there is something wrong with our bodies. It’s also wonderful that she’s healthy as well,” Lloyd said.
The coverage also recalled Janet Jackson’s account that a ballet teacher had once told her that she could not participate because her backside was too large.
Scott’s reported fitness goal placed the emphasis on health while accentuating, rather than concealing, the distinctive features of her natural figure.
