'I would still love all of that, but what am I going to do, just sit around waiting?' the Golden Globe winner said.

Ross, who is the executive producer of ABC’s “Mixed-ish,” told the publication that she’s considering pursuing a singing career.“Love Myself,” as a single off of the soundtrack for the 2020 film she starred in, “The High Note.” The Golden Globe winner said during an Instagram Live at the time that singing had long been a dream that she was “afraid of” — especially with the pressure that comes with being the daughter of legendary singer Diana Ross.

Ross had shared similar sentiments about societal expectations often put on women during her speech at Glamour’s 2017 Women of the Year event. “So it is really interesting to be a woman and to get to 45 and to not be married yet and to not have kids,” she said, sharing examples of intrusive questions she’s been asked about her marriage status and her desire to have children.

“My life is mine,” she continued. “Those words, like, stopped me in my tracks. And, honestly, they brought tears to my eyes. It seems so obvious, but, obviously, it wasn’t, because I have not been living my life as if it was my own.”
