Deshaun Watson's girlfriend Jilly Anais gives Browns QB his flowers for crucial support in her music journey
Jilly Anais is giving her boyfriend, Cleveland Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson, credit for her helping her with her career endeavors. The singer was featured on Nick Cannon's VH1 music docu-series "Future Superstars" as she tries to break out in the music industry.
In an interview for the series, she noted that the Browns quarterback encouraged her to release her original EP in 2021. She said that at the time she wasn't sure about the style of music she had made, but with Watson's encouragement and support, she did it.
"I put out my EP because of him, my EP "copy and paste" that I released in 2021. That was a different sound to something that I hadn't even created throwback was such a vibe.
"It was such an r&b, s*xy, growing up woman song that I created that I didn't even know I was capable of because I stepped into this new phase of my life, and I had somebody who supports me say go take that, and go do it. Because why not?"
Jilly Anais also said that Deshaun Watson knew what she was capable of before she even believed it herself. For her part, Anais has done the same, supporting Deshaun Watson's NFL career.
