Quote

There are two things I wear. One is a Curvation undergarment over my whole body, and then maybe I'll also put on some Spanx. They're so great. They have a way of smoothing everything out, and then you can just put on whatever you want. It accents you and makes you feel pretty.

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.

I made decisions that I regret, and I took them as learning experiences... I'm human, not perfect, like anybody else.

There is nothing like a person with confidence, male or female, not conceitedness, but confidence. That inspires other people.

There are a lot of people who helped make Queen Latifah who she is today. I don't forget, but a lot of people do and get big heads. My mom will make me walk the dogs or take out the trash when I go home. I'm not allowed to get a big head I've still got to do the simple things in life.

I'd say, if you want to be an artist, start with your art start with making great music and it will, hopefully, eventually cut through all of the nonsense that is out there.

There were musicians that influenced me, but they weren't all women. Teena Marie was a big influence because she wrote and produced her own music, which let me know that women could write and produce their own music, which was an empowering moment for me.

I always loved all kinds of music. I would watch musicals a lot as a kid, on TV, watch the Fred Astaire movies. I'd watch 'The Wizard of Oz.' I was a big Jerry Lewis fan, and they'd have these big bands and someone singing - some siren, or some guy singing some gorgeous song. I was always enamored of that style of music.

When you're rapping, you do have to perform to a certain degree, but not every rapper is necessarily a gifted actor.

You just have to connect with people who believe in your vision and who will work with you and advance your cause.

I often go to bed in my birthday suit. But I like teddies and cute little undies that match. I like a sexy bra and panty set, or little shorts.

It was a very vulnerable time going from being insecure about my body and who I am to becoming comfortable with me. I had to tune out what the hell everybody else had to say about who I was. When I was able to do that, I felt free.

Lets be clear, Dolly Parton is a rapper. Somewhere before all the country, I don't know what happens up there in the mountains when you're growing up, but she has been spitting rhymes for a very long time - 50 years I'd say.

I came from a crew, and to me, all the guys I rapped with were better than me, so I was surprised when I was the breakout one. It was definitely a cool thing.

As a teenager, I had big breasts for my age, and my friends cracked on me a lot.

The good thing about movies is that they're subjective. You can connect to different themes depending on your own perspective.

I never really took any acting classes. I'm just a natural ham, I guess.

If I ran into a 19-year-old version of myself, I'd just tell her to live, full out. I might also tell her to go ahead and have a few babies and not worry about the timing of it.

I'm not allowed to get a big head, I've still got to do the simple things in life.

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.

We ignore our feelings a lot, I realize. Many of us have to... until they really bite us in the butt.
