Queen Latifah Performed For "Her People" At Long Beach Pride This Weekend

Those hoping that Queen Latifah would roll onto the stage at the 29th Annual Long Beach Lesbian & Gay Pride Festival in a Home Depot shopping cart while proudly waving her strap-on in the air were totally disappointed. Queen Latifah made her pride debut this past Saturday night and she didn't exactly scream that she loves chocha from the top of the amps. But Big Daddy Dana (© Fresh) did say she's been "waiting a long time to do this" and she's proud to be "among her people." To me, that's basically saying "Rojo Caliente is my party leader" without actually saying the words "Rojo Caliente is my party leader."

I'd still like to see Queen Latifah proudly wave her strap-on in the air, but only because that would make a really good CAPTION THIS picture. Queen Latifah doesn't really owe anybody a huge coming out speech, but you know who does owe me something? My cable provider. They owe it to me to include No More Down Low TV in their channel lineup.

No more "just waiting for the right man" answers to those pesky reporter's questions. Finally!

Do you remember those? When she was doing her TV show, that was her stock answer. Even back then everyone knew she was gay. Too bad Jada Pinket felt she needed to hide behind big Will.

As society continues to downward spiral, there will be more and more "coming out" to their newly acquired sexual deviancy. No biggie.

I'm amazed you even bother to read this blog. I guess it's too antagonize us pesky gay lovahs and libruhls. But you really are the moron for posting your antiquated ideas on a GAY MAN'S BLOG.

Oh yeah, and I LOVE BARACK OBAMA.

Just AWESOME. She is doing this a couple of days after the NAACP publicly suuported marriage equality.
I met The Queen in Whistler (Canada) about three years ago and she truly is a warm person. Not to mention extremely pretty. She does not hide her sexual preferences when she is just on vacation. (No, she did not come on to me.....she was with someone, lol).

Maybe it's because of bullshit like this:

THAT is why it's important not to hide.

And yet, we all know that's going to go nowhere...yet you hear nothing from the gay community about things like this:

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/05/14/iran-gay-men-executed-hanging_n...

Something that takes courage to speak up against. But of course since it's the Muslims doing it, everyone should remain silent...but some crackpot so called, Christian minister makes a speech, and everyone is all up in arms.

This is why I can't take this outrage seriously.

I think at this point with the pics of her canoodling with her "personal trainer" Queen is out. But even before then there were pics that came out of her at private parties with strippers where she was dressed like a stud and handing out money. I understand that many feel that she should come out but maybe for her it's more of an ego thing than being worried about what people think of her.

I guess she's taking the "baby steps" approach to coming ou. I actually prefer it to the People magazine cover.

Anyway, good for her. She has a lot of charisma and seems like a nice enough person.

I've known she was a lesbian for 10 years. My first college roommate used to date a guy who was Ice Cube's wife's hair dresser and had done Queen's hair and her girlfriend's for multiple parties at Ice Cube's house.

I'm sad I missed this even, I thought it was this coming weekend LOL

So many people remark that they're "proud of" and "happy for" celebrities who come out publicly, but if it's supposedly none of our business, why do they care? And why is the privacy of people like Raven respected but there's a demand for people like Queen Latifah or John Travolta to come out? People need to make up their minds between encouraging celebrities to come out and saying that their sexuality is no one's business.

Count me in on the Queen love. She's been a mainstay in an industry that's mostly about flavour-of-the-month and just goes about her business.

It warms my heart to see so many dlisters love the Queen. I've always liked her. Good for her.

It hurts because you let your black heart beat for an asshole who can't even send you a "P.S. I'm about to fuck a hole that doesn't belong to you" text before fucking said hole that doesn't belong to you.

Also, the only way this could have possibly been any better is if she said this hand-in-hand with D-Listed Hot Slut of yore, Quween on the Scene!

I've always liked her.

That was smooth as silk. Love her.

I like what she did there. No need for magazine covers or some huge announcement. This shouldn't even be an "issue", and the fact that she's treating it like the non-issue that it is makes me even more partial to the Queen.

Televised, lucky you! Coulda, shoulda, woulda, eh? Sure, sure, now you would... hahahaha

"Big Daddy Dana"!? Lmao, you make her sound a roughhouse MK, bet she's a pussycat! ;)

Happy for the Queen.Closets are for clothes.(...and some occasional weird sex) On a separate tip: It's interesting how the term "down low" has come to be associated with black homosexuality over the years.
_______________________________________________

It's a term that originated in the African American community. Hence, the association.

Anyway, good for Latifah.
