A lesson for everyone – don’t come for Jill Scott.
After former NFL linebacker Kyle Queiro questioned how people found the Philly singer attractive, social media not only came out in defense of Scott but some of her peers too. Loudest of them was Toronto’s Tory Lanez who delivered the most succinct argument against any Scott slander.
“You can’t trust a nigga that don’t find Jill Scott attractive,” the New Toronto 3 artist wrote.
Tory wasn’t alone in his sentiments regarding Scott’s beauty. Thousands jumped to echo those thoughts including artists like K. Michelle and Questlove of The Roots.
“Jill Scott is the sexiest human EVER. Sue Me,” Quest wrote.
K. Michelle added, “Jill Scott is literally one of the sexiest singers of my time. I hate brain dead jocks.”
The situation kicked off when Queiro posted in a since-deleted tweet, “People are attracted to JILL SCOTT?!”
He added that “by no means is she ugly. But y’all really sexually aroused by her?” He drew the conclusion that it was “an energy thing” when it came to the “Crown Royal” singer but not before the wrath of social media came for him.
Erykah Badu Vs. Jill Scott Instagram Live Battle Wasn't A Battle At All
He later apologized after deleting the tweets, saying, “I tried to explain my tweet after realizing how poorly it was sworded and conveyed. I didn’t grow up on Jill Scott so it was news to me that was a sex symbol, and I just tweeted. Stupidly. It was best just delete it & take my L.”
Queiro has since made his page private.
Scott’s legion of fandom has only grown in 2020. Her Veruz Instagram Live “battle” with Erykah Badu still remains the platform’s most viewed battle to date. Both iconic singers’ streams grew from the battle greater than any of their Verzuz counterparts.
According to Nielsen Music / MRC Data, the two’s May 9 battle drew the largest increase in streams at 217 percent. By comparison, the next highest was Beenie Man and Bounty Killer from their May 24 battle at 216 percent followed by Babyface and Teddy Riley at 90 percent and Ludacris and Nelly at 30 percent.

Quest love is gay, isn’t he? And someone did sue him lol. He’s a asshole.
Fuck you
Something about that lady moves me in a such ad way. I love to hear her speak let alone sing,.
Damn whoever dude was who fucked you in jail you gonna have to dal with it…He must remind you of Questlove
She’s fat. If you’re into fat chicks, fine but most men aren’t. I’m not saying I wouldn’t sleep with her, but most other females who are not obese are more attractive.
We evolved to find slimmer, healthier people more attractive because not surprisingly they live longer and will pass on their healthy genes and habits. It’s not much more complicated than that.
Dumb ass
You men will never get a attractive woman because your too self centered and inside of worrying about Jill Scott worry about how y’all mf look before you talk about someone make sure you look 100 percent better then they do ok just saying ??????♀️??♀️??♀️??♀️??♀️
You have no clue how evolution actually works. Also read a fucking history book….skinny women have only been attractive for maybe the last 100 years.
Buju Banton vs beenie. How clueless and stereotypical is this article. All jamaican artists are not the same . No. It was bounty killa vs beenie man. Get your facts straight.
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Skinny don’t make you cute. Nor face tits ass lifts either. Some women looked better before they tried to become what society told them was cute. I’d rather be recognized than unrecognizable. All men aren’t attractive either. Most of the ones complaining need a face and body lift. We just don’t speak on it. We can fix the face and lose weight. Can you fix the beef. Until you can make it bigger, please have several seats.
What kinda shii y’all on??? Jilly from Philly is a Beautiful Queen ? Dude who started this need to be smacked by the neighborhood pimp with baby powder!
Don’t really see the problem with his initial statement, we all have certain taste and preferences when it comes to men or women. His leans toward the negative on Jill Scott while Lanez and Quest is more on the positive side. Nothing to be concerned with compared to other issues going on.
Why make the comment at all though?
She’s a whale….nothing attractive bout that…unless u like blubber!
sound a bit ‘whale-ish’ yourself there big poppa..I guarantee if you weren’t you wouldn’t have had the time in your day to take out to even make that comment. we know for sure no one is riding your coat tails buddy.
You are clown. Stop disrespect bigga poppa name punk. You meth head
This article is shit. Whoever wrote this quit journalism now
I’m a 40 year old white man. Jill Scott is fine as shit and always will be.
-cuckold
I can only speak for myself. From the videos and photos i see, this woman is attractive as hell.
Jill Scott is a big, beautiful, confident Black woman and sexy as hell! She sings about sex and connection on a metaphysical level. Even if you haven’t learned about that yet, did you see what she did to that microphone?
So glad Jill Scott doesn’t need that dude to validate her existence. Maybe you should stop equating sexiness with 130lbs cuz us sistas can be sexy in all sizes.
Jill Scott so fine,I want to be her her man,that n___a tripping
You said you did not grow up on Jill Scott so you did not know that was a sex. Respect you still sound off she is not a THAT! Jill is one of the vest singer of all time so understand THAT!
Jill Scott is absolutely gorgeous and I think it’s stupid to think anything else!
Not the right time for this type of mindless, brainless stupidity. What was the point in this in the first place? You Mf’s get on my last nerve coming on social media saying stupid s… and trying to post a retraction as if that matters. You meant what you said. You were man enough to post it then be man enough to own it. Don’t sound like the actions of a real man to me!! LOVE ME SOME JILL 4eva.
To say she is an attractive woman is just going against the grain to be obnoxious. She obviously is not attractive. In the least. Yall are just some wanna be afrocentric mfers that are insecure about your lust for white women cause yall hate white people so much. So you put on this act as if buffugly black women are attractive just to try to be jerks.
What do you look like? The nerve… Where do these people come from? Who are you?
…..nigga what!?!?? Your must got the loudest of the loud…mixed with some meth
Jill is sexy as hell , my fantasy minaj is with her and Marsha ;0)
Being sexy is an opinion not a fact and he’s entitled to his.
I think Jill Scott is sexy but I don’t think you’re crazy if you don’t think she is it’s OK people relax!
But he wasn’t stating HIS opinion. He was trying to get people to say on a public forum that Jill Scott isn’t a woman that can get men sexually aroused w/ her physical looks. He just put it in a question form. He was being shady & we didn’t fall for the BULLSHIZ. Even if that is his opinion, why state that to the world? We are already the most disrespected & under-valued group on earth. What was his purpose?
Ms. Jill Scott. If ever you need a bodyguard to keep brothas from TRYING to bring anything less than positivity in your presence, I your huckleberry lol. Where I’m from (Kansas City Kansas born, Sacramento CA raised) we’re never raised to abused women in any form, especially verbally. Oh. My services are free and you can keep me on duty until you say otherwise. I know the strong woman of Jill Scott NEVER trips or listen to clueless chatter. Never been a thug or gangster in my life but I’ll definitely be one of many soldiers on the Frontline. My name is Sherwin Huff Sr. Have a blessed and wonderful day and let GOD take care of you like he is currently ???
Bunch of “woke” niggas in comments expressing thier lust for this woman smh. Just stop it, she is average at best.
Lol shut the fuck up! I ain’t woke and she is beautiful and sexy above average! You be into them fake plastic bitches when you look below average yourself you non pussy getting dickhead!
To fact check…..no equate of sexy or fine in white woman. More so bad posture and looks of 20.yrs older and glow in the dark annnnnd lite!!!!
