More quotes by Queen Latifah
I want every day to be life for the living, not just traipsing through it existing. I'm just interested in life and the world and exploring.
Queen Latifah
I know people who are twice as creative as I am, twice as smart, but they didn't do anything because they feared going into a room and opening their mouths. My parents told me to truly accomplish things in my life, there would be times I would have to stand alone. It may be scary, but that's what it requires.
Queen Latifah
There is nothing like a person with confidence, male or female, not conceitedness, but confidence. That inspires other people.
Queen Latifah
I'm not allowed to get a big head, I've still got to do the simple things in life.
Queen Latifah
I never really took any acting classes. I'm just a natural ham, I guess.
Queen Latifah
There is no profession more essential than that of an educator, and it's time for all of us to embrace and celebrate their importance and contribution to America's children.
Queen Latifah
I have great family and friends that do not treat me like Queen Latifah. We've all grown with this thing, they have sacrificed part of there anonymity they've had to deal with rumors and things in the paper and they've had to take this ride along with me and they've taken it and we've had a good time.
Queen Latifah
My mom was my main influence growing up, and Phylicia Rashad reminded me a lot of my mother, just the way she handled certain things, she was... not soft-spoken but smooth-spoken. Just very calm, cool, collected about things.
Queen Latifah
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.
Queen Latifah
I like Pirate's Booty. Prunes and olives, too. I love hummus. I can eat that until I die. I tend to eat mostly organic food.
Queen Latifah
The objectification of females is not a good thing! Not every rapper does this, but when the lyrics focus solely on the strip club, 'poppin' bottles' and how many girls they can 'tap,' it distorts what kids are learning. I think if there was more of a female presence in hip hop we could break up the monotony. It's all about balance.
Queen Latifah
Roxanne Shanté was kind of the first female to really come out and get respected by dudes, because she went at dudes real hard and battled them and freestyled a lot, and really came off the head a lot.
Queen Latifah
I'm thinking wanting to succeed is something in my DNA I'm not like 'I've got to succeed,' I just don't think about that... I see a silver lining in everything and I see a lesson in everything.
Queen Latifah
I don’t want to be a supermodel I want to be a role model.
Queen Latifah
As a teenager, I had big breasts for my age, and my friends cracked on me a lot.
Queen Latifah
There are so many things I'd like to do. Like becoming a parent. To me that is the next natural progression in life.
Queen Latifah
For myself music definitely informs my emotions. And I can literally play a song that will get me where I need to be emotionally. I don't have to think about the tragic things that happened in my life or the greatest things that happened in my life.
Queen Latifah
I've never wanted to be put into a box, not musically.
Queen Latifah
Having a belief in God, being able to find joy, despite your circumstances or put yourself outside of yourself, and stop looking inwards and look outwards a little bit really helps to carry through tough times. Giving makes you feel better.
Queen Latifah
People say I'm going to be the next Oprah. But I say no, because Oprah is still Oprah. I'll be the next me. I feel like there's always a lane for me as long as I'm true to myself.
