Queen Latifah Turns 55! Honoring The Icon’s Legacy In Music, Movies & More - Page 3
3. The STAR
At this point, Queen Latifah has nothing left to prove. She has appeared in and produced some of the biggest, historic and cultural films of our time. From timeless Black films like Set It Off and Beauty Shop to classic musicals like Chicago and Hairspray.
What can’t she do?
Queen Latifah has appeared in more than 40 films, and her breakout role in Jungle Fever was only the beginning. She has since showcased her acting range from hilarious comedies like Bringing Down the House to her current drama series role in The Equalizer.
Latifah has worked with almost everyone in Hollywood such as Tiffany Haddish, Steve Martin, Halle Berry, Dolly Parton and Jada Pinkett-Smith.
Her presence onscreen is powerful just as it had been through her music, brief talk show hosting stint and naturally radiant personality that won the entertainment industry over since the beginning. We are wishing Queen Latifah continued success, love, light and an EGOT soon enough! Happy Birthday, Queen!
