Queen Latifah is a national treasure and her hair is NEVER out of place! 😂
Since day one her hair was always laid
Never. Makeup either
Never
She definitely keeps her image in check. Like she's always polished, even if it's not truly her style, she rocks it all the time. You see her in her downtime she's very laxed
Right like does she ever have a bad hair day
Yes. Queen Latifah is definitely our Queen. So happy she's got a new movie out.
top gun maverick is in theatres now
Everything she’s in is terrific.
MY 👑🤛
She is one of the very few stars I would probably fangirl over if I met her in person. 🥰
You don't think a feminist is she? I don't like feminists and i pray to allah she is not one. Does anyone know if she calls her self a black feminist?
I love Queen Latifah!! So excited to see her acting again. With Adam Sandler no less.
coming up next the star of top gun maverick danny ramirez
Acting again Have you watched The Equalizer 👌🏾
Umm...you can see her in her show "The Equalizer".
This woman is a career reviver, consummate thespian, amazing artist, savvy business woman and a simply dope person. Her industry rep is pristine and she is respected by everyone across all genres. Bow to the QUEEN!!!
Queen Latifah, ageless beauty, class and smarts.
Perfecto words to describe the queen, one of a kind...😉😎✌
Well black don't crack.
WHO YOU CALLIN' A B✨TCH😝U.N.I.T.Y.

She's the real Queen! Classy and honest.
Her Arabic name means very kind and pleasant as well.

Couldnt agree more!
She is Stunningly Awesome!
Queen Latifah is one of my favorite entertainers. She can sing, rap, act and she's a Steph Curry fan...ALL HAIL THE QUEEN!!!
Queen Latifah has been my real life hero since I was a teen in the 90s. She inspires me as a female and a human.
I don't think any of the women in the recording industry or Hollywood are like her she just seems to be exalted by her own genuine qualities ... she's classy and down-to-earth at the same time ... and so real .
I agree 👑👍🏼❤️
she could rap
Yes!!!!!!!!! My FAV
Her mom was an art teacher
I love Queen Latifah. I need her back on the big screen! 💕
Queens hair is always sleek and slayed babay!❤️ always loved her! she has a great positive spirit!
Yes she creates good vibe.
I waited on Queen Latifah one afternoon several years ago in We Ho. The restaurant was having a lull at that moment so she was the only person in the place. I tried to keep my cool, but when that woman smiled, it was like a mega wattage of light and beauty filled the room! I was taken aback by the power of The Queen! She's annointed.
Her hair always kept in place ,never a single day do I ever see her hair messy 💜💜💜💜🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻

I adored her as a kid in Living Single, I watched Chicago a million times mostly just for her as a teenage theatre kid, and yet, against all odds, this interview made me love her more.

Adam sander is just a down to earth actor, they way he carry himself is like I'm still a regular person no matter how movies he's been ,much respect to him
Queen Latifah is so cool and seemingly down to earth. I’m glad that she is in another movie and a successful series.
I just imagined Charles' face after being told that when Queen Liz passes, he still has to wait for Queen Latifah to go before he gets the crown.
💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀
So happy to have seen her on Hustle! I miss her comedy movies. Taxi, Last Holiday, those were great
I just rewatched Last Holiday. She is amazing in that. She was also incredible in Chicago and got an Oscar nomination.
Queen Latifah, the definition of Grace and Gorgeous. Badda bing badda boom you nailed your role in Spike Lee’s movie.

Love her. What gorgeous cool woman she is.
Wow, the Queen. Love her, and Adam. I remember playing the hell out of her music when I attended Howard in 1990. I was on her TV show and it was nice. Got a cell phone that day along with the entire audience. She is so cool, so real. She reminds me of my little sister because they look alike and have that same aura. 💯
