The rumored engagement of Queen Latifah to her longtime girlfriend Jeanette is big news for celebrity followers, especially those who've wondered if this star is a lesbian. First reported by MediaTakeOut.com, the rumor is big for just this fact alone. Additionally, it's also been reported that Queen Latifah and Jeanette will be coming out about their relationship and upcoming marriage. At Dotspotter.com, this celebrity newsflash was seconded by one of their blogs called "Mama Pop".

Latifah's upcoming movie, The Perfect Holiday, is slated for a December 12 release. The film is directed by Lance Rivera. MediaTakeOut.com cited unnamed sources about the relationship. This movie, with a hopeful Christmas theme called The Perfect Holiday, will feature Queen Latifah's skills as a producer and film's narrator. This Christmas holiday film is about a struggling single mother of three whose Christmas wish is to find a decent man. It also stars Gabrielle Union and Morris Chestnut.

The celebrity diva was, according to Wikipedia, born on March 18, 1970, in Newark, New Jersey. Latifah's real name is Dana Elaine Owens. She is an actress who has starred in TV shows like Living Single and movies like House Party 2, Juice, Jungle Fever, Scary Movie 3, and Hairspray. Latifah played a car-loving and car-stealing lesbian named Cleopatra "Cleo" Sims in the 1996 movie Set It Off. This talented actress even received an Oscar nomination for Best Supporting Actress for her performance as Matron "Mama" Morton in the 2002 film Chicago.

Her music hits include the hit song U.N.I.T.Y, which won a Grammy Award, and came from her 1993 hit album Black Reign, though she's had other hit R&B/Hip Hop albums like Trav'lin' Light and All Hail the Queen. She's the first hip hop artist to have her star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, which occurred in the early part of 2006, according to the official website of The Perfect Holiday movie.

This isn't news. I've known she was a lesbian for a long time. Just her mannerisms alone give her up. Watch out for Alicia Keys too, she's next to come out. If you think Alicia is straight then you REALLY are green about the world, lol. I still laugh at people who couldn't tell that Luther Vandross or Tevin Campbell were/are gay. Too many folks lack discernment.

What an amazing woman! To have such a fulfilling life. I mean look at her accomplishments. Who cares if she likes women? It's her life and she should be able to do what she wants. I feel for all celebrities. Can you imagine having every little thought, belief, and action questioned? The only difference between us and them is that our thoughts, beliefs, and actions are not recorded for all to see. Great article.

I've read that she's overcome a lot of personal struggle and heartbreak, also. It's good to see her hard work and perserverance pay off in success.

Great article, she has been suspect every since she played in the movie Set It Off. If she is fine if not fine. My opinion of her will not change either way.
