Happy birthday to R&B powerhouse Jill Scott – the sexy, uber-confident, and amazingly talented songstress, model, poet, and actress whose name represents pride, self-empowerment, and warmth. The self-proclaimed “Jilly from Philly” turns 49-years-old today (April 4), and throughout her 20-year career, she’s given us powerful female anthems, performances, and a whole new way to express our sexuality! From the first time we heard her sensual sound on “A Long Walk,” to the moment we were introduced to her acting chops on shows and movies like Girlfriends, Why Did I Get Married, and Baggage Claim, to her and Erykah Badu’s moving Verzuz battle that felt like warm hugs, soul cleansings, and a cultural reset, Jilly from Philly has remained soulful, sexy and confident, never shying away from showing off her killer curves and style. In celebration of the queen’s birthday today, let’s take a look back at the many times she’s showed off her sexual confidence!
