I think Queen Latifah is a cool lady, very talented. :cool: What I like best about her is that she seems very comfortable in her own skin. She's a plus-size woman, yet walks with the confidence and sexiness of Angelina Jolie, as she should. Her smile can light up a room. She's seems like the type of person who would be a blast to hang around with. These quotes of hers are classic:

"I wish every woman would love herself and embrace what she was given naturally." -quoted in WOMAN'S WORLD, (6-7-05)

"I am not one to turn down macaroni and cheese, even late at night. I love Italian food. I love pasta. A refrigerator full of water and Gatorade? Honey, that's just not gonna happen." -quoted in WOMAN'S WORLD, (6-13-06)

In 1992, her older brother, died in an accident on the motorcycle that Latifah gave to him as a gift. He was a police officer. She still wears the motorcycle key around her neck. He never lived to see her meteoric rise to stardom. That must weigh so heavy on her heart. :heart: :(

I think she's a terrific actress. I loved her in Beauty Shop, Chicago, The Last Holiday, and more recently, she just won the Golden Globe for HBO's, Life Support, which was fantastic, and well-deserved. That role also earned her an Emmy nomination. :thumbsup: I don't know much about her singer career, but I hear that she really had it going on big time before she concentrated more on acting. :music:

I read recently that she's gay. I think people here know me well enough to know that, if true, it's a non-issue. Still, I'm nosy, lol, and wondering if she has a partner. I don't recall her being photographed or being involved with a man. She's obviously a private woman, in that regard. That's certainly her prerogative. It doesn't mean I'm going to stop wondering about it. ;)

Any Queen Latifah fans out there? She's so versatile, in that she can make you laugh, make you cry, sings, even dances a bit. She's come a long way from being Dana Owens, working at a Burger King in New Jersey. I think it's safe to say that she's here to stay for a long time. :)

She's my favorite actress, she really seems down to earth.

so is that why most plus size women I talk to on the phone before meeting them say-"People tell me I look like queen latifah"

LOL

I loved her on Living Single.

She is awesome, i think she is a very sexy women!
If i had children i would much prefer queen to be a role model of their's than angelina jolie, that women look's like a crackhead!!
Great actress and person here's to you Latifah!! :cheers:

I am a HUGE Queen Latifah fan. So is my boyfriend. He always comments how beautiful she is. He rarely says that abt any celeb that appears on our television screen. She has it going on! I love her work and her music. I love how she came out with her last album and used her name Dana Owens. She is unique, she is vibrant, she is proud of her looks, her curves, etc. She doesn't give off any vibes that are negative. She seems so down to earth and I my wish is to meet her one day and tell her what a great spokesperson she is for various things she does, I love her underwear line CURVES. I have a rather large chest and I found that her bra line works so well for me. They are comfortable, they are so pretty and they actually HAVE MY SIZE!

QUEEN LATIFAH ROCKS! :rock: GOOD THREAD JANICE! ;)

I heard a rumor that she is Getting Married

Married? I haven't even heard who she is dating.

I love Queen! She ROCKS! :D I love her in Chicago, Bringin Down the House and Living Single! A true role model for those of us who aren't pencil thin.

Married? do you live near her or something scoobie? :lol: Where'd you here this? ;)

I heard she is going to mary her Girlfriend

she's definitely funny i liked her in last holiday and taxi

The last Holiday was Filed where my dad used to work

my mom told me that she was going to marry her Girlfriend

my mom told me that she was going to marry her Girlfriend

She is not gay though, i think your mom might be thinking of someone else, unless im wrong.

Then why am I am hering all of this from my mom read it on the frount page of AOL.

Then why am I am hering all of this from my mom read it on the frount page of AOL.

Sorry your right. :)

Congrats to them both!:mango

Then why am I am hering all of this from my mom read it on the frount page of AOL.

Thank's again Scoobie sorry i doubted you. :)

Aww! They look very cute together! :D Congrats to them!

Wow! Last I heard Queen Latifah was saying her private life is her "BUSINESS" and no one else's. :lol: I guess she decided to finally let the world know she is in love. Awwwwww, they make an awesome looking couple. Her girlfriend is gorgeous!!!! And I bet Queen knows how to treat her right. Not like some of those Hollywood dudes like Eddie Murphy. :rolleyes:

I loved her in CHICAGO. Did anyone else see that movie? She was so damn good in that movie. The first movie I seen her in was SET IT OFF. I think Queen Latifah is a natural born actress. She is so damn good at her craft. :thumbsup:

My aunt told me that Queen Latifah had a girlfriend but i didn't wanna believe it. I think Queen might be bisexual. I think she likes men too. I've been a fan of her's for a long time. I like some of her rap songs and she's a good actress too. She's one of the few female rappers who got lyrical skills and she doesn't have to dress half naked to sell records like other female rappers like Little Kim, Trina, Foxy Brown. Queen's new movie Mad Money with Diane Keaton and Katie Holmes looks corny.

wait a min, Queen admitted she had a girlfriend? where the hell have I been? haha

Not surprised one bit, but surprising I didn't hear it until now.

I remember when she first came out in 1989-1990 with the song "Ladies First" and thought it was catchy, but I had no idea she was going to have the career ahead of her that she has had.
