My mom will make me walk the dogs or take out the trash when I go home.
From Queen Latifah
I was baptized a Baptist, but I'm just Christian, as far as I'm concerned. I could go in any church, doesn't matter if it's Baptist, Protestant, Episcopal, or Catholic.
Sometimes I pray when I really feel like I need God to help me with something, and sometimes we just have conversations. We just kick it.
God is my homeboy. Jesus is my homeboy.
Hip-hop definitely taught me a lot. Having to create your own identity and become known and respected in a male-dominated field - it requires some guts. There are times you have to be strong, and times when you have to stand alone for what you believe in.
To wanna be me is to go through not just the good but the bad. You wanna share my story identically? Man, you gonna take some lumps.
Running for office was definitely something I've thought about. When I was younger, I wanted to major in political science. And I've been engaged in current events since I was a kid. If I can make a difference and feel passionately and capable, then I would. Why not?
If you can draw something from my life that helps, more power to you.
I enjoy just being me. I don't need to be Queen Latifah, the brand, 24 hours a day.
New Jersey is a great place to live. And we have given some of the best talent to the world, from Jack Nicholson, John Travolta, to Jerry Lewis to Bon Jovi to Frank Sinatra.
