I want to have and adopt. I always have; ever since I was 18, I wanted a baby, and I wanted to have and adopt because there are a lot of kids. I want to adopt an American baby though, you know what I mean, no offense. Just because there are so many kids here that need our help. Queen Latifah adoptamericanbaby share on social
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.

I'm not the type that's going to sit and preach to people if they don't need it just because I've been around the block a few times. Queen Latifah blockhavepeople Change image and share on social
I support many organizations that I feel are doing the right thing, like Alonzo Mourning's foundation, Alicia Keys' foundation, the Make-a-Wish Foundation, and other well-established foundations. I kick out a lot of time and money wherever I can. Queen Latifah aliciaalonzoestablish share on social
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. Queen Latifah bigforgethead Change image and share on social
Two records put me over the top with hip-hop. One of them was 'Planet Rock,' and the other had no lyrics - it was called 'Numbers,' from a group called Kraftwerk. Every kid in the 'hood in New York and New Jersey was popping, locking, and breaking to that record. It was the hottest track on the street at the time. Queen Latifah breakcallgroup share on social
Sometimes you do have to bank on yourself. You do have to believe in your ideas enough to really get out there and fight for it despite what people think of some young kids from the hood. Queen Latifah bankfighthood Change image and share on social

When I was around 18, I looked in the mirror and said, 'You're either going to love yourself or hate yourself.' And I decided to love myself. That changed a lot of things. Queen Latifah changedecidehate Change image and share on social
I do feel like I have a direct connection with God for some reason; always have since I was a little kid - I would talk to God, talk to the sky. Queen Latifah connectiondirectfeel Change image and share on social
