    You know what else "Queen Latifah" did? Picture it. Los Angeles, 2002, at the Beverly Hilton. My family and I (including my two young nieces who were about 4 and 6 years old) were walking into the lobby of the hotel as she is walking out. We're a little starstruck because IT'S QUEEN LATIFAH! So, as we walk past her, we're all like "Hey, it's Queen Latifah!" "What's up Queen!"
    Her only response as she kept walking past us? A roll of her eyes followed by "Psshhh." I guess she's too good to act like a normal human being. Just another inflated Hollywood EGO.
