Jill Scott Excels At Everything,Including Her New HBO Series! I Know She'll Be A Great Mom As Well!


Jill Scott is pregnant & due at the end of April.I just saw her new HBO series & it was just as good as I thought it would be.She's got the South African accent down pack!You can really believe that she is from Botswana & not America! It's that good!Ms. Scott has proven that she is an all-around entertainer!Here's more on this great new series about a female detective from USA Today:

"Jill Scott is in the home stretch of one life-changing journey and just starting out on another.
The singer, poet and actress is expecting her first child April 25 and on Sunday makes her debut in HBO's The No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency (8 p.m. ET/PT), an adaptation of the novels by Alexander McCall Smith.

Scott overcame personal obstacles to get the Agency job, in which she plays Precious Ramotswe, owner of a Botswanan detective agency. After auditioning for the late Anthony Minghella, Scott nailed the part but learned that same week that her mother had cervical cancer. Her mother ultimately got a clean bill of health, and as Scott was ready to get on a plane and begin shooting in Africa, she found out that she was seven weeks pregnant.

Now, as she and her fiancé, band member Lil' John Roberts, await the birth of their son, Scott is putting the finishing touches on their new home in Studio City, Calif. The performer, 36, is happy for the miracle she thought could never happen. At age 24, Scott was told by doctors that she would never have children, and they recommended a hysterectomy."(END OF EXCERPT)Read the full article here.
