Taraji P. Henson Almost Skipped Her Benjamin Button Audition for a Yard Sale

[@Boom12]

Her performance as Queenie was amazing. I was simply stunned by Taraji for her heart and motherly spirit as Queenie.

[@bigfrankfraser1391]

nowadays black actresses play white roles as stuck up bitches, i sure as hell miss when actors did there job and did it right like taraji did as queenie

[@SergioTheOne]

I love Taraji!!! She’s so real & funny

[@ScarlettJ1221]

Taraji is such an incredible actor and I love her personality

[@jerminator356]

She's so beautiful and hilarious

[@ErykaSoleil]

I've enjoyed watching her pop up in various roles for years; I'm so glad she's getting more attention now. Also, I would go back to yard sales if somebody told me there was champagne available . . .

She was wonderful in this movie. I've followed her career since.

[@leek988]

That woman has everything!

[@mrs.stewart917]

People love "Cookie" as a character, but the real life "Cookie's" get no love. It's nice to pretend that she would be embraced though.

Why has she not aged?

[@bertagriese8282]

What's with those eyebrows? Start where they belong and end up somewhere else?

[@christinalucas1002]
