Queen Latifah Archives

Carrie Underwood attends the Pregame Show and National Anthem Press Conference with Queen Latifah at the Fort Lauderdale Convention Center as part of media week for Super Bowl XLIV on Thursday (February 4) in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.

At the conference, Carrie, 26, and Queen Latifah, 39, broke out and sang the American Idol pop-culture song “Pants On The Ground”.

“As a songwriter I know we all aspire to write something that is catchy and has a message,” Carrie told USA Today. “And I think the youth of America can learn a lot from Pants on the Ground. And they can pull their pants up … because it causes all kinds of back problems. I’ve seen the studies.”

Carrie will sing the national anthem before the big game on Sunday while Queen Latifah will perform “America the Beautiful”.

Queen Latifah is expanding her empire with a new scent by Parlux Fragrances.

According to People, Queen by Queen Latifah will feature notes of mandarin, jasmine, cognac, Moroccan coriander and Egyptian musk housed in a ruby-red bottle embossed with a heart.

Queen explains why she wanted to do a perfume, saying, “Beauty really does start on the inside. It’s like a state of mind, a state of love, if you will. So I see a fragrance as just a natural expression of this state of love: Scent expresses a woman’s confidence and sensuality, it’s how she embraces her body, her mind and her strength.”

Available in August!

Tina Fey makes her weekly appearance as Republican vice-presidential candidate Sarah Palin on last night’s episode of Saturday Night Live.

SNL regular Jason Sudeikis impersonated Democratic VP nominee Joe Biden and guest star Queen Latifah as PBS journalist and debate moderator Gwen Ifill. Together, they parodied Thursday night’s debate between Palin and Biden.

“We’re gonna ask ourselves what would a maverick do in this situation, and then ya’ know, we’ll do that,” Fey’s Palin responded when asked on how to deal with the financial crisis.

Fey-as-Palin, who habitually winked at the audience, dismissed questions about climate change, saying she wanted to talk about taxes instead: “We are not afraid to get mavericky in there.”

At the end of the segment, after delivering a shout-out to a local Alaska third-grade, she asked with flute in hand, “Are we not doing the talent portion?”

Watch the video below of Tina Fey as Sarah Palin or at NBC.com.
