That Was Then, This is WOW!

We loved her way back when she was the First Lady of Hip-Hop, holder of the “Juice”, and editor-in-chief of Flavor magazine. Today, Latifah has positioned herself as a talented jazz singer and an Oscar-nominated actress, and she’s loving it. Best of all, she’s loving herself.

The multitalented star notes: “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.”

We’re absolutely loving the skin she’s in. Get the Queen’s flawless complexion with CoverGirl Queen Collection foundation, $9, at drugstores nationwide.
