Why when she's having a regular conversation it sounds like poetry 😂👍🏾
I saw Jill in Atlanta leaving a hotel and just politely said I love your music! No pics no autographs because I know how I would react to the constant request. She was so sweet and calm and told me in return that I had beautiful skin. LOL

That’s nice. If I noticed her I’d just wanna casually sing a lyric of hers to get her attention and wave and smile lol
"I'm not a celebrity. I'm an artist."
Please tell sister Jill Scott she still have people waiting for her to bring back the ladies number 1 detective. 🙌🏾❤️

That was my show!!
Jilly from Philly seems INCREDIBLY grounded and down-to-earth. I appreciate her more after these snippets than I ever had. She's real.
Why is Jill’s voice so soothing?
Jill is such a great story teller.
No diva energy from Jill. Humble beautiful energy.
I loved her in the show The Number One Ladies Detective Agency. I wish it would have continued.
I attend a Jill Scott listening party that was hosted at the Apple Store for The Light of the Sun ☀️….I was so darn starstruck to ask for a picture but she sweetly smiled at me and gave me her autograph ☺️. Her smile and aura lights up an entire room! I am such a fan.

Are you in Atlanta
Can you imagine looking at that smile across the breakfast table in the morning? It's like the sun coming up all over again.
Jill's always had such a soothing voice... Like a spa for your ears. ✨🧖🏾♀️✨ Her talking about fleeing from those fans in Macy's made me think of that 80s song by Flock of Seagulls - Couldn't Get Away. LOL!!! *singing*... And I ra-a-aan. I ran so far a-way-ay-ay. Yes, I ra-a-an. I ran all night and da-a-ay. 😆😆😆 I couldn't help it. It just immediately popped into my head. Lmao!

Ms Scott can see me, talk me, and sing me a lullaby any time. Seriously looking at her and Jemele "Sisters are beautiful". From the captivating eyes and the natural beauty of the freckles to those rosey cheeks and that pearly white smile. I swear my eyes were bouncing from left to right and right to left. Welp, alright, going to see what else they got to share. Jemele keep doing it!
She’s just soooooo beautiful. Her energy..everything. Love her 🙏🏾😍
I met her in church awhile back. She’s so sweet and regular in real life. Jill introduced herself to me, I was thinking to myself 🤔 Girl, Lighthouse is my song…I know who u are!
Jill Scott is such a sincere soul.
That’s my Jilly from Philly 🥰. That’s head wrap is tied impeccably.
she’s gorgeous
And this is why we will CONTINUE to love Jilly from Philly ♥️🖤💚
Beautiful inside and out, wife and I can't wait to see you in DC. GOD gives more grace to the humble, stay sweet
Her and Janet Jackson have the same spirit to me
I love you Jill Scott and thank you for writing that national anthem for us because we're still dying in the streets which they don't understand.❤❤❤❤❤❤
This is my girl, she’s so humble. If I was to see her out. I’d just give her a nod & keep it moving.
There’s been many reports of her being “mean to fans” when they’ve met her. Perhaps it’s just her anxiety manifesting as her “being mean” nice interview!

Still to this day, when asked what celebrity would I most want meet and have a conversation with. It’s always Jill Scott!!She is just amazing!!
She's so authentic!💗
Jill is real and raw, love her ♥️
I never realized Jill Scott's authentic personality
Great interview. Two beautiful black women who sends out soulful vibes👏👏👏
🥰Jill Scott, always humble and real
Did anybody catch her Color Purple reference? She is beautiful.
I love Jill Scott!!!!!
Jemele love how you interview- you ask the question and allow them to answer fully.
Jill is right what good is it if you gain the whole world and lose your soul???
Jemele is the truth and thank you for your vision - Black women need this...
Love her whole vibe,her art has a brotha in a whole beautiful zone...❤

Pretty Jilly from Philly. Just lovely and regal.
Oh wow, such a soothing voice!! Great story!! I think Jill is a beautiful person inside and out!!
I love Jill Scott. Now more than ever. As an introvert, I can relate to the The story about hiding in Macy’s. And I just drove by a Kmart that closed recently down and it it makes me sad that now I can’t shop there wearing my mask and drinking my coffee. She made it sound like a great self care day. I’m all about it.
That 33rd bus is no joke. She better run 😂
There should be some time of preparation that would come along with popularity of your art because certain things are inevitable when your in that type of world. I'm glad you have been able to get a system for you and remembering things outside of fame that are important.
I love the way she explains who she is? I am just an Artist. But we love you,🥰 Jill Scott
OMG. OMG. OMG. J. HILL. 1🎉❤🎉❤🎉❤
The Jemele show is among my fave new media channels. Always interesting guests, topics and questions. 🙌🙌
Jill is beautiful 😍
Man I love her so much. Listen to her almost ever other day. I know all of her songs word from word.
Jill is a beautiful person... dont say that a lot about these girls a lot!!
Love some Jill Scott.
Much Gratitude
Job well done. Great interview! Your interviews are so authentic and people feel comfortable sharing their stories with you. Bring them on! 😊 Love Jilly from Philly!
Thank you so much Mrs Jill Scott. For everything, from these interviews, your music, and for for just simply sharing the raw you with the world. Some of us young mom's really do appreciate you. Your are a beacon of true light in this world we live in today.❤️🌹🌟🌈
I'm not sure if it was a great interview or if Jill is a great conversationalist? Could be both. I enjoyed the candor and honesty, MS. Jill Scott😊

Great discussion very heartfelt
Gorgeous Jill Scott.
Love, Love, Love Jill Scott! Thank you Jemele for this interview! I'm also looking to becoming an expac, and Jill gave some good suggestions, however, I need her to continue touring, so wherever I go outside the US, she will be there!
Jill and Stephanie Mills share the same astrological sign. Let it sink in. I would love to see them tour together.
I love Jill. I appreciate that she's as big as Sade, but she's always just "ol'girl from 'cross tha skreet".
Excellent questions asked. Good job!
The Rest Of You Can Have Those Half Naked So-Called Instagram Models To See These Two Great Absolute Beautiful Black Goddesses In This Interview Is Worth It's Weight In Gold....

Will Smith once said you want to be rich not famous
Mannn I love JS
I saw Jill Scott in CVS out here in bum ass Durham North Carolina of all places. she was on the phone i just silently mouthed the words: i love you i apologize if i fucked with your anxiety Ms. Scott
I've got nothing but love for Jill Scott. But, being famous comes with the territory. The money and fame go hand in hand.

They don't go hand and hand, there are a lot of rich people who are not famous, but with her line of work especially adding the acting, if your real good then Fame comes with that as well

Sometimes it seems like famous people want all the people around them to accept that they have changed while simultaneously wanting everyone to stay the same.thats unfair.
