Latifah Lost 20!

Queen Latifah showed up and showed off her slimmer figure on the red carpet of Will Smith's movie premiere of Hancock
this week in Los Angeles.

I've been giving Latifah a hard time lately because since January the Jenny Craig spokeswoman didn't seem to be losing any weight. In fact, unlike previous Jenny Craig celebrity spokepersons Kirstie Alley and Valerie Bertinelli, no weight loss figure was being mentioned in the commercials tracking Laitfah's weight loss.

Well last night I caught Latifah in an interview with The Insider on the red carpet, where Latifah confessed to losing 20 lbs. and that she may keep on losing more.

Well done Latifah! Well done.

What The Hell Is A 'Size Satisfaction'?

Is it me or has Queen Latifah not lost any weight since becoming a spokeperson for Jenny Craig?


When it was announced that Queen Latifah was slated to be the next celeb to take the Jenny Craig challenge I was excited to see how much weight she would shed.

I was even impressed with the initial commercial and how they spinned Latifah's weight loss story to speak more of the 'health' vs 'vanity' reasons why someone should want to lose those love handles.

Check out that commercial:



Since this commercial, there has been at least two more and none of them seem to be tracking the Queen's weight loss. In fact, the last commercial I saw stresses that one should aim for a size "satisfaction".

WTF! As opposed to a size 8 or a 10?

I dont know what's going on but since Oprah, our plus size black celebs are getting lazy!

Star Jones chose to go under the knife, Mo'Nique refuses to give up fried chicken and now Queen Latifah is faking the funk by pretending to lose weight.

If you are reading Queen, put down the donut, go to the gym and start eating the free Jenny Craig meals that's probably been sitting in the back of your fridge now for the past few months!
