While recently appearing on former First Lady Michelle Obama and her brother Craig Robinson’s podcast, ‘IMO,’ 52-year-old Ellis Ross explained why she often finds herself courting younger men — and it’s not just because of their hot bodies. She said:
“A lot of men my age are steeped in a toxic masculinity and have been raised in a culture where there is a particular way that a relationship looks. Anything that starts to smell of that, for me… I did enough of it where I was controlled and felt like I was a possession—or a prize. And I have no interest in it. I will not do it again. I’m sorry. No.”

Ellis Ross also made it clear that she’s not a bitter woman out here dating. She told Obama and Robinson that she is not waiting around to be rescued. Ellis Ross said, “I do date and it’s a fascinating adventure out there.” She continued to admit:
“Mostly though, I think there’s really good men out there. I think to a certain extent, I’m a very unique sort of unicorn of a woman and so it’s gonna take a unique person and in the meantime, I’ve really learned how to live my life and enjoy it and not sit around waiting…. I do have to say I’m moving up on what it is that I’m looking for as a match.”

Corey Holcomb Goes Nuclear On Tracee Ellis Ross For Dating Younger Men
Reacting to Tracee Ellis Ross’ comments on dating younger men, 56-year-old comedian Corey Holcomb criticized her on his podcast, ‘The Corey Holcomb 5150 Show.’ Holcomb disclaimed that his comments were just for fun and him joking around. However, his criticism left a sour taste in the mouths of many on social media.
He later claimed, “Tracee Ellis Ross can get it. She can get it and a n***a might walk down the street with her.” He then proceeded to make fun of her looks with different photos of her rolling across a screen behind him. He continued to say:
“Your best years are gone. You have to date the puppies in order to get the proper attention you need. Because they need you. You got bread. You got things that will keep them interested in you. But this is what happens — after them young boys smash you and go around the block with you a couple of times, you start stalking them. You’re gonna feel like that young boy owes you something. You’re not gonna be happy. Don’t no young boy who got his life ahead of him—you can’t have no baby at 52. What you doing with a young boy? You’re stealing from his future.”
