She recently returned from Botswana, Africa, filming the lead role in the independent film, 'The No. 1 Lady's Detective Agency.' Ms. Scott actually put on a few extra pounds to portray the role of Mma Ramotswe. Jill is also staring in Tyler Perry's upcoming feature film, 'Why Did I Get Married' with Tyler Perry himself, Janet Jackson and Malik Yoba, coming to the big screen on October 12, 2007. And, if that isn't enough for any one woman to handle, her new cd entiltled, 'The Real Thing,' dropped on September 25th. My girl Jill, with all her curls & curves, is a power house all by herself!
