On Saturday, Jill Scott announced during her show at Carnegie Hall in New York that she is engaged to her drummer/boyfriend Jon Roberts:
While she began to sing a tear-filled intro to her signature song ‘He Loves Me (Lyzel In E Flat),’ the blond-striped coiffed musician emerged with a bouquet of yellow roses and kissed the double-Grammy Award winner after whispering sweet sentiments in her left air.
The sold-out crowd, who came to partake in one of the biggest highlights of “The 2008 JVC Jazz Festival,” cheered its approval – some standing at their feet.
Scott, who was divorced from her longtime lover Lyzel Williams last year, beamed as she revealed the secret news to the rapturous audience. SOURCE
Congrats to Jill! We’re so happy for her…
