'This Is Us' Star Lyric Ross Gives Dress Advice At Go Red For Women Fashion Show
Lyric Ross was born on September 30, 2003 (Lyric Ross age: 16) in Illinois. In an exclusive talk with uInterview, Ross shared that she has always wanted to act from a young age.
According to Ross, her first-ever role was reciting a message as Harriet Tubman in preschool for Black History Month.
Ross made her television debut on the series Sirens in 2015 and appeared in Chicago Fire in the same year. She had her feature film debut in the 2017 drama film Rogers Park and followed it up the next year with a role in Canal Street (2018).
In 2017, Ross joined the cast of This is Us as Deja Pearson. She was a recurring character throughout the second season and has since joined the main cast in the third. Ross has been nominated for several awards for her performance in This is Us, including a Teen Choice Award, two multiple Image Awards, and a BET Award. She shared the Screen Actors Guild Award for Outstanding Performance by an Ensemble in a Drama Series with the rest of the cast in 2019.
Ross told uInterview that her favorite moment on set was when fellow castmates surprised her with a birthday celebration during filming.
“I was working on my birthday last year and I had to do a scene where I was crying. To cry on my birthday, that’s not really what people want to do, but I had to get through it and during one of the takes, I heard all of these footsteps coming into the house that we were filming in and it was this big old happy birthday cake and everybody started singing happy birthday to me. That has to be one of my favorite moments,” Ross said with a smile.
In late May 2020, Ross posted an audio clip of a conversation with her grandmother in response to the ongoing Black Lives Matter movement. In her caption, she quoted her grandmother: “Until people read up on Black History, they won’t understand this is nothing new,” referring to the oppression and mistreatment of Black Americans.
