Jill Scott may not sport the greedy, drooling fan base type that Beyoncé and Nicki Minaj and others have surrounded, but that doesn’t give you permission to pursue the beloved singer “A Long Walk” without reason or provocation, as a former NFL player learned the hard way.
Kyle Queiro is the former NFL player who, according to his Instagram account, likes his own face a lot, because each photo is a close-up of himself. He used Twitter on Saturday to express how amazed he was that fans found the singer-songwriter attractive or handsome.
“Are people attracted to JILL SCOTT !?” Queiro actually printed, highlighting his name in capital letters. “So it’s a question of energy. I got it. and by no means is it ugly. But you’re all really sexually aroused by her, huh?
The backlash rained quickly on Queiro in a torrential downpour of virtuous indignation.
We need to get into the concussion protocol for this guy @Kyles_Style. How the hell are you going to question the sex appeal of the goddess Jill Scott? 😑 pic.twitter.com/0au8Wk6diy

A second person set Queiro on fire with: “Jill Scott’s slander will never be tolerated. Just say you like white women and go. “
Others quickly piled up and pounded Queiro.
- “Kyle Queiro accessed Beyonce’s Internet and wondered how someone could be attracted to Jill Scott. As if he couldn’t imagine that a plus size woman can be physically attractive and sexy. Fatphobia is real. “
- “Put his whole foot in his mouth. Yes, many people are attracted to Jill Scott. No, it’s not just about energy. Jilly de Philly is doing very well like hell. I am offended by this level of ignorance. That’s all.”
- Jill Scott “looks like the sun, so I know denying its appeal is ridiculous.”
- “How did he even fix his hands to tweet something like this about Jill Scott?”
After a few hours of grilling on the hot Twitter grill, Queiro changed his tune.
Queiro found his mea culpa to be terribly insufficient to allay anger while he also deleted this post from Twitter.
The singer “Golden”, in response, did not even address Queiro’s childish and petty tweet, but rather took the opportunity to plead for the innocent victim killed Breonna Taylor.
Wait… I’m in trend again ??? Ok then-JUSTICE for Breonna Taylor !!! Justice for

Scott later admitted that the wave of compliments and positivity towards her was gratifying.

Later, the completely ashamed grill player returned with fairly eloquent excuses that not only dealt with his transgression but also paid tribute to Scott.
