Tracee Ellis Ross, 50, is thirsty!

Tracee Ellis Ross is showing off her wild side.

The “Black-ish” actress, 50, looked as ageless as ever in new bikini photos she posted on Instagram Monday.

Ross struck a series of playful poses in the leopard-print two-piece, adding a plunging cream-colored cover-up, brown sandals and oversized glasses in the last snap.

And the Pattern Beauty founder’s friends and fans couldn’t get enough of the pics.

“The abs are abbing,” commented writer Adriane Jamison, while a Ross fan account wrote, “BODY GOALS,” adding, “50 has never looked so good.”

Joked Jesse Tyler Ferguson, “I want to come back reincarnated as you.”

January Jones and Padma Lakshmi both dropped fire emojis, while singer Chika told Ross, “you’re the flyest person i know.”

Throughout the week, the “Girlfriends” icon has been sharing vacation snaps from a tropical locale, showing off swim looks ranging from a sunny yellow set to a blue floral bikini.

In an interview on “Today” earlier this year, Ross spoke about the joys of turning 50.

“I think I’m the sexiest I’ve ever been. I feel fantastic and I feel like the world is my oyster,” she said.

n 2020, the stylish star accepted the Fashion Icon Award at the 2020 People’s Choice Awards, clad in a white Alexander McQueen shirtdress accessorized with a leather harness and thigh-high boots.

Ross thanked her ever-fashionable mom, Diana Ross, during her acceptance speech, calling the diva’s closet “the best fashion playground of all time.”

It seems the actress’ own closet (or suitcase, in this case) is quite the playground as well.

I think that she’s talented but her “moment” has passed. Hollywood had her hosting awards shows and headlining movies but now she’s back to knocking on doors.

Soon she’ll leverage her mother to try to get back on top. A duets album? A wacky family reality show? A warts-and-all documentary? All of the above??

I've always been impressed with the fact that Tracee realizes she's odd looking and so made it in comedy rather than trying to make it drama like her mother.

It's undoubted that her connections got her where she is (or was), but she's genuinely talented. I don't mind the nepo babies like her or Jane Fonda when they're genuinely talented--what I object to are the Lourdes de Leons and Rumer Willises and Beanie Feldsteins and Jaden Smiths who never would have received any attention if their parents or siblings weren't famous.

She’s not a pretty girl and she was unfortunately raised by a narcissistic mother while she looks like a clown.

Feel no pity as “work” for her is a hobby, but that marionette face cannot be fixed and no man (or woman) would touch her without demanding her PIN number first.

That term nepo-baby is so fucking stupid. It's made up by people who as adults still think "Life should be fair." Life isn't fair, nor has it ever been. Part of being an adult is accepting this fact and still getting up everyday to make the things you want to happen in your life happen. And people who use this term act as if they wouldn't be the first in line to use whatever advantage they had to get where they wanted. Which of course is a lie. It's all just sour grapes.

The children of celebrities usually already have built in audiences, eyeballs on them to bring to a project. They automatically bring more interest before they even ever begin to prove if they have talent or not. It's a business about filling seats, getting viewers. Period. It's how the entertainment industry has worked since its genesis. Tracy Ellis Ross has more than put in her dues. And as a matter of fact she probably could have had a much easier path as the daughter of a legend. But she insisted on putting in her dues.

When the sitcom “Girlfriends” was on in the early 2000s, it was a big hit in Black households. So some might’ve thought that its lead Tracee Ellis Ross was a big star in the eyes of Hollywood. But that wasn’t the case, according to what she revealed during a recent interview on Essence’s “The Color Files” podcast. According to Ellis Ross, while “Girlfriends” was on from 2000-2008, she was never invited to a late-night talk show or one of the major award shows, despite the much beloved sitcom being so popular.

“My career was not handed to me,” she explained. “When I was on ‘Girlfriends,’ I couldn’t even get on a late-night show. No joke. I was never on Jay Leno, David Letterman, any of those shows. I was the lead. It was a huge hit in our community and we had a lot of eyeballs. I had never gone to the Golden Globes. I’d never gone to the Emmys. I’d never gone to any of those award shows,” the actress added. “All of that has happened since I got on ‘black-ish’ in my mid-40s. None of that was a part of my experience in the early part of my career.”

Ellis Ross also said she struggled to find work after “Girlfriends” ended, and she had somewhat of a low profile until “black-ish” began in 2014. During her interview, Ellis Ross also admitted to thinking “The pearly gates of Hollywood” would open for her after “Girlfriends” ended but just the opposite occurred. During that time, however, the former model said she learned not to attach her self-worth to her career, which is an approach she’s held on to.

I don't think she's ugly. TER did look model-y at one time with the big eyes and the sharp features. Model-y doesn't have to equate with beautiful, although it can. I think she was beautiful when she was younger.

I've always enjoyed her in comedy. Like I said above, she's always been thirsty and leans into it. She's not someone looking for attention and then insists she's not trying to get attention.
