Who doesn’t love the fun-loving Queen?
Pleasant to watch, laugh-out-loud funny, and all around memorable, there’s no denying that Queen Latifah has made her mark in film and television. When not producing her own movies (e.g. “The Cookout”) or sitcoms like “Living Single,” she’s busy starring in movie roles, or lending her voice to animated movie characters.
In a nutshell, this Madame has got it going on…so much so that she always seems to land some pretty hot cuties as castmates, doesn’t she? Here’s our list of all the Queen’s men…from film to television movies to sitcom. Let us know if we’ve missed any fine specimen out there!
“Brown Sugar” 2002
Remember when Mos Def’s character, the uber-shy, super-adorable Chris ‘Cav’ Anton Vichon finally stepped up to his crush Francine (Queen Latifah)? So freaking cuuute.
“Bring Down the House” 2003
In this movie, Queen Latifah plays ‘Charlene,’ a prison escapee whose hot body is pursued by Eugene Levy’s character, Howie. OooOoow!
“Beauty Shop” 2005
The Hot, charming, sweet Djimon Honsou plays Queen Latifah’s love interest in ‘Beauty Shop’ (a cute movie that was kind of like the “Madame” version of ‘Barber Shop’).
“Just Wright” 2010
What’s a Commoner to a Queen? Everything, apparently, if the chemistry between Common’s and Queen Latifah’s characters in the movie ‘Just Wright’ has any say in the matter.
“Last Holiday” 2006
LL Cool J’s character, Sean, plays Queen’s Latifah’s love interest, Georgia in the movie ‘Last Holiday.’ And the cutie co-stars just keep coming for the Queen…
“Life Support” 2007
It’s a tragic situation for Queen Latifah’s and Wendell Pierce’s married characters, as the former drug addicts share the HIV virus and struggle to overcome.
“Living Single” (1993-1998)
Remember Cress Williams’ character, “SCOOTER,” on ‘Living Single?’ How could you forget Khadijah’s on-again off-again lover? The two were so perfectly paired on that show…
Despite what you think of black female representation in film, or what you might have speculated about the Queen’s sexuality, it’s so hard not to notice: she always seems to land the foiiinest of fine men as co-stars! For that fact alone, consider her saluted.
