My guest Tonight is a Golden Globe Award winning actress who stars on the hit ABC.

Siri's Blackish Please welcome our good friend Tracy Ellis Ross, you look fantastic.

I see your hair has grown Even though you've cut it and it's grown again, it's no matter what I do it, uh, it refuses to be quieted during this time.

Yeah, I don't think your hair should ever be quieted.

I think it screamed as loudly as it wants to.

Yeah, it was very, you know, worried about the elections.

And it's been It's just it is expressing a lot of inner turmoil right now.

Someone's got to Let's let's talk about you and then talk much more about me.

You were named fashion icon of 2020 at the People's Choice Awards on Sunday.

That is also a lot of pressure because you are a fashion icon.

Now, listen, I It didn't feel like a lot of pressure to me.

It felt like it finally validated my shopping habit, and I finally like you could put a I have to buy this.

And now you know, these are my pajama scone.

I actually stole this from my both Johnson's wardrobe.

I take things from wardrobe whenever I can.

I don't even know how an award show works these days.

A red carpet And then usually the times when I've gone to an award show.

It's a lot of hugging handshaking, you know, Cheek kisses.

There were on Lee to photographers spread out distance.

Um, you weren't anywhere in proximity to anybody else.

I actually kind of overlapped with a friend of mine Djamila Jamil, and we automatically magnetically like started walking towards each other.

But then we just moved into the bows and it was Yes, It's so nice to see you and the air hugging, um, the only issue with the red.

Well, there's a ton of issues with all of this.

First of all, it's very surreal to keep doing stuff like that in the middle of this, because it feels like What are we doing?

And then I would you know, you wear your mask until the last possible moment took my mask off my makeup.

My lipstick was like up my cheek and other way.

Like you probably look like Joaquin Phoenix's Joker, you know, just sort of exactly right next year and and up on the nose, too.

But, you know, it feels fun to do safely some of those things, um, to create some semblance of like, I really wanted to go because it was such a big deal.

But then you standing on that stage and all you hear is the echo of your voice, because there's no one there, nobody there, No one.

You don't even walk on the stage with somebody else.

There's such riel things going on in the world that a lovely, joyful, awkward award show is just fine because there's I'm really glad that you mentioned the bow because, um, I started out doing the elbow bump.

But for years in my monologue I would give a little bow at the top of the show, and I'm finding that that's the way to go.

I see people, and actually you brought up Djamila Jamil.

I saw her recently because we both work on podcast in the same building, and it's there's hardly anybody there and everyone's wearing masks and it's all very safely done.

But I saw her in the hallway and I did a big bow, which is one should bow to you and to Jamila Jamil, you are worthy of a bow, although sometimes I'm bowing it like a gas station attendant.

But it's like I feel like bowing is appropriate.

I feel like you deserve about two, and I feel like a gas station attendant deserves about not this one, not the one.

Okay, I understand that this guy was up to no good.

I don't think he worked at the gas station.

He was just wearing the uniform and trying to steal gas caps so does not Does not deserve about the elbow bump is honestly too close to me.

I'm like, you're still way too close to me.

So this works and you can still make eye contact with the Onley sense that you get to see out of you.

You just get you know, I touch my heart a lot.

You know, I think I was doing for a while is the elbow bump, But I would lik I would lick it first.

And that was just I don't know why I was doing that.

I was trying to add a little bit of eroticism to it.

And I got a lot of complaints so that I think I think I'm glad you stopped that thing.

Is why I need friends like you who are fashion icons but also can tell me when I'm behaving inappropriately.

Um, you are figuring out a way to still be fashionable even during this pandemic.

I know that you don't need to check it out, but I want my audience to see this is you matching your mask to your shoes, which is.

Yeah, that is that is operating in the upper 99th percentile.

I am one of those people who is terrified of this pandemic and co vid.

And so if there were some sort of actual bubble I could be in, I would do it.

That was me visiting my products at Alta because Ulta beauty carries pattern my hair care products, and I wanted to see them because we have a whole bunch of new shelf space.
