Queen Latifah has a warm, friendly personality and a wonderful outlook on life. I greatly admire her.

So Mariah really does start randomly singing everywhere 😂😂😂

[@DeLucaSou]

love the Mariah moment. Queen is so precious. we gotta love her

[@paparazzi85]

Not them not mentioning Set It Off?!!! I’m shocked!!!! One of my favorite movies of all time!!!! ❤❤❤

[@bosslady1188]

I didn't think about that one. Exactly boo hoo.

[@Pal3sa]

That was her getting to really show off that she's an actor with so much range. I'm mad they didn't mention it either

[@MonicaLAlvarez]

Saame!!! And The Equalizer, which is PHENOMENAL!!

[@dr.braxygilkeycruises1460]

I loved *Set It Off;* it was definitely the first of Queen Latifah's movies where I saw just how phenomenal an actor she is. Also, that was the very first movie that my soror from college was in. *Natalie Desselle-Reid* only had two lines in that movie, but then she went on to do such great things. I miss her. She passed away two years ago (December 7, 2020). 😇🥰

[@carmthisis8265]

Living Single is absolutely one of my favorite shows. Will rewatch endlessly & would love a reboot. Wonderful characters & cast. So glad to know the show & hope more of us discover it. 😊

[@nicolenunya984]

Man, I forgot just how funny Living Single truly was until they put it on Hulu. I’ve watched the whole series twice since then

[@sparklefairy34]

I would LOVE for Living Single to get a reboot or a live reunion!!

[@justsensa]

Hell no no reboot. Some things need to just be left alone especially now in days

[@KellieT73]

I love her movie "Last Holiday" too. She's so awesome!

[@shellyj987]

Yep her and LL. One of my favorite movies and will watch it every time it is on!

[@Lori00000]

I’m so glad this generation is finding out about Living Single. Such a feel good show! ❤ still my fav

[@purplepantha11]

Born in the early 90s and now just watching it, it’s soo amazing so happy I can still watch it

[@canadianravenbrook]

Queen Latifah is a true Queen. She absolutely slays every role!!!

[@tjasaboh808]

Queen Latifah has such a nice personality, down to earth. 😍

[@rockerbob949]

My my my…..she is better than fine wine….and So DREAMY 😍

[@nellyc1002]

This woman is phenomenal! So reinventing on so many genres in life!

[@justincartwright252]

Queen is easily one of my favorite women of all time. She is so multifaceted. And just easy breezy and down to earth. I cracked up at the blonde hair part. Girl gone and get loose! 😂😂😂

[@camiv2061]

Something about Queen that I love- so down to earth, great actress

[@Ernie1978]

Gotta love Queen Latifah, not only a phenomenal rapper and singet but a gifted actress. Respect!

[@sahej6939]

Queen Latifah is the true Queen!!! Black Reign still my favorite album! Can we get a Queen Latifah & Mariah song today!

[@DoMeDoMyNDoI3490]

She's in an amazing space. It is beautiful to see. To feel. Great interview. She said she's slow because she takes a longer time with her stories, something I can understand, but I feel she explained herself thoroughly. She tells great stories.

[@lucyrodriguez9719]

Living Single is also on Hulu!

[@MojoviWrites]

Queen Latifah is truly a queen! I love her so much. I don't know if there's anything she isn't good at, and on top of all that talent, she also seems to be a genuine, kind person.

[@BeachBumEvvie]

When I tell you I’m here for a Living Single reboot. PLEASE.

[@jeanetteholzmann1206]

Queen Latifa is very cool and a great Actor🙌🙌

[@Shopaholic33forever]

The queen walked into my photography class asking my teacher did he see her mom. OMG I was so excited to see her in person!!!

[@tiffanycurtis4794]

Queen Latina still got it beautiful talented lady

[@slate49]

Hail to the Queen! Man, there’s no other like the queen! Love her films and tv shows. Not much into her music but just her personality pulls you in and she picks awesome projects to be in

[@dr.braxygilkeycruises1460]

Her jazz album was phenomenal!

[@slate49]

@@dr.braxygilkeycruises1460 Thnx for the recommendation! I had no idea she had a jazz album!! I’m going right to I-tunes to check it out

[@robtastic9899]

I didn’t have cable or satellite back when I was a kid and after I got off school living Single and the Jamie fox show was my favorite shows to watch getting off school. Didn’t have cartoons only on the weekends.

[@shannonallaround9490]

QUEEN 👑

[@nr30199]

No need for a reboot just watch the original 🤷🏽‍♀️. Been down with the Queen since 1989 no need to stop now 👑

[@mtherfnprincess]

She's so darling 😍 the Queen is just so versatile and humble

[@SuperMar10GalaxyBro]

This was a lot of fun, lots of laughs!! Thank you, Drew and Queen!!

[@melanieballard8669]

I loved her talk show!!! Wish she were still on.

[@cocoafemme47]

Melanie Ballard: Both versions. She had her 1st in the '90s and a 2nd one about 4 years ago. Don't know why she discontinued it.

[@nicolenunya984]

@@cocoafemme47 lol, I was about to ask Melanie which one. I was younger so it could be that I didn’t connect with the topics, but I didn’t like her first show

[@BrandonCM4]

what a legend

[@GooberTronElite]

[@carlycoppi4769]
