Jill Scott has been featured in O Magazine as well as Giant Magazine talking about her up and coming projects.

In O Magazine, Jill speaks about her aunt who died of failing health and the lessons she learned from losing her:

“Her passing shook me–and freed me. I finally faced the fact that I was unhappy in my own marriage… I felt a lot of pressure to remain with my husband; I’d written songs about our love, and people would tell me the lyrics inspired them to get married themselves. But as fame came, love left… She gave me the courage to find my own happiness. So I moved out, got my own place, and spent some quality time alone… Now I’m florishing, growing, and loving myself. and I’ve found my guy, a musician named John Roberts.”

In the March Issue of Giant Magazine, Jill talks about her up coming new HBO mini-series called The No. 1 Ladies’ Detective Agency where she plays a cunning detective by the name of Mma Precious Ramotswe.

“The film allows people to see Africa in a different light,” says Scott. “And it’s not a full definition of Africa. It’s only half of the half of the half of this one country.”

The show also stars Idris Elba and Anika Noni Rose and the pilot episode is set to air March 29th.

She’s a singa-turnt-ackta. Check out the photos below to read her articles in it’s entirity.
