The Gist
Tracee Ellis Ross playfully leaned into a summer thirst trap moment as she posed in a tiny black string bikini on August 14.
Set to Megan Thee Stallion’s “Body,” Ross’s photos showed the actress going makeup-free as she showed off every angle of the micro scalloped swimsuit.
Ross also opened up about how she turns to Michelle and Barack Obama for dating advice on Thursday in a Jimmy Kimmel Live interview.
Summer might be on its last legs, but Tracee Ellis Ross proved that swimsuit season is far from over as she shared a full camera roll’s worth of spicy bikini photos with her fans. The Black-ish actress was feeling herself on August 14 as she posed in the tiniest string bikini, which featured an unexpectedly flirty detail.
In a photo dump set to Megan Thee Stallion’s hot girl summer anthem “Body,” Ross playfully leaned into a thirst trap moment as she showed off every angle of her plunging black bikini. Despite being set against the gorgeous backdrop of a plunge pool with the ocean behind it, Ross’s toned boned and her barely-there suit took center stage as she leaned up against an outdoor shower, laid back against the wall in a cheeky shot, and stood in front of the wanderlust-worthy vacation background.

Ross let her natural beauty shine by going makeup-free, adding a pair of oversized black aviator sunglasses that took up half her face. Styling her black hair in braids, the Girlfriends actress teased, “2 things in these photos are coming out reallll soon…,” potentially hinting at new developments for her Pattern hair care line or her recent Solo Traveling with Tracee Ellis Ross series.

Ross’s bikini photos come the same day she opened up about relying on former first lady Michelle Obama and her husband, former president Barack Obama, for dating advice. The star, who revealed she only dates younger men while appearing on the Becoming author’s IMO podcast back in April, joked about how Barack has “failed” her when it comes to her love life.

“Well, I broke up with someone, and I remember running into the former president. And he was like, ‘I could have told you that,’” she told Jimmy Kimmel during an August 14 appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live. “And I was like, ‘Well, you failed as a friend. Like, it was your job to say that before.'”
While she revealed she still does “call about dating advice,” Ross also shared that she hasn’t asked Michelle or Barack to set her up with anyone. In addition to enjoying meeting men “in the wild,” she revealed, “I like to get set up. I have posed the question to many a friend. I’ve never asked Michelle to set me up, which I think perhaps is dumb, and I need to get on that.”
