Queen Latifah on Having a Baby: ‘I’ve Been Practicing’

January 18th, 2012 - By Brande Victorian

A couple of months ago, Queen Latifah told More magazine that she would like to become a mother, saying she’s “definitely going to adopt, or have a child,” and when the Queen stopped by the Wendy Williams’ show today, she sounded like she was leaning a little more toward having.

She told the gossip queen, “I’ve been practicing,” although she said she was just joking, adding:

“God willing, it will work out however it’s supposed to work out and that’s the plan.”

Demonstrating the levelheadedness we love about her, Queen Latifah talked about people getting caught up in the hype around pregnancy, forgetting that at the end of the day it’s about whether the baby and the mother are health. So, she said:

“I’d love to be a mom, but how that works out exactly I can’t say.”

I’m excited for her and I hope things work out whichever way suits her best. Could you imagine Queen Latifah pregnant?

  • Thatsnotcool

    I thought she was pregnant..with all that gut infront of her at the show.

  • darkman

    I’m ready to be her baby daddy!!! (My wife will understand…). But, seriously, why not pregnant? Even if she’s not in men, there are ways…
    About practicing, it’s not trying to get pregnant but practicing her motherhood’s skills. She said that she’s paying bills for 18 years, meaning she’s probably taking care of nieces and nephews, so she feel like a mother…
    I’m still ready to be her baby daddy, even if she beat the crap out of me: I’ll be driving a Porsche, common!!!

    She doesn’t need a man to get pregnant you ignorant fools. 

    • Pahleeze

      Yes she does hun…even if she were to get artificially inseminated the key word is “semen”! And semen only comes from one species that is a MAN!

      You’re the ignorant fool #smdh

      • Morningdove666

        ok you sounded real stupid with that statement. She can go to female doctor and request only female nurses and have the baby without coming in contact with a man. FYI there is enough semen in to work with in banks around the world to repopulate the world if the male species just died off tomorrow. So what if she is gay. Everyone doesn’t believe or think the same way that you do. In the greater scheme of things your post and mine will just be lost in blog crap never to be seen again. Get over yourself.

    date via online dating —(βlαckwhitеPlanet).{C 0 M}—it’s the most effective place in the world to connect with, to find
    intimate encounters.There you may easily have free contact with charming girls
    or handsome men….Hope you like it!Good
    luck!
    ++++++Life is short. Enjoy
    yourself.

    Who is she “practicing” with, an imaginary man??!! 
    She needs to stop fronting as if she is into men – if you like women, that’s your business. 
    No need for the phony act that everyone can see through.

  • cleojones

    how is she practicing when she has no love for men.. 

  • Henewaa

    i’m not understanding this…

  • severine

    No I can’t imagine QL pregnant, because that would entail her having sex with a MAN. I wish to God she would stop faking this “straight” steez of hers; she doesn’t have to come out but good lord EVERYBODY knows she’s not into men, hell SHE doesn’t even act like she’s into men so who does she think she’s fooling by talking about “practicing”? GTFOHWTBS!!!

    • Jenn

      Not necessarily. She could get artifically inseminated.

    • Fceswfge
