Queen Latifah : Okay, maybe overweight, but ugly?

I keep seeing some comments on here of users calling her ugly. Do some people automatically equate fat with ugly? I don't get it. You can call her overweight, but Queen Latifah is not an ugly woman. I was watching "Set It Off" the other day and Latifah even with the cornrows, lack of makeup and oversized masculine clothing was still was very pretty. I actually thought she and Jada Pinkett were the prettiest women in the movie. Her face is so nice. I mean i've seen a lot of skinny female celbrities who have great bodies, but unattractive faces and don't even come close to being as pretty as Latifah. It seems like if you have a great body people will overlook an ugly face, but if you have a pretty face and are overweight, people will call you ugly fo5b4r some reason. I really don't get it. This is not my idea of ugly:

She has a lovely face and great bone structure. The ugly claims are just unwarranted. I bet if she was thinner and had a body like the typical hollywood celeb, people would be saying how pretty and "hot" she was.

She's defenitely not UGLY but I know she kind of looks overweight, and fat but in a sexy way I guess to me, yet she looks 100% healthy and something of her attracts me whenever I see her I don't know if that's the shininess on her cheeks or the extra cushion that she carries with her.. whateverbut my point is she is one of a kind!

Agreed with the OP.



"Untitled Batman Project (2011)"

First off these pictures are so emphatically airbrushed that they don't even remotely resemble her (it). Secondly her face is chubby and her features are just round and puffy. She has no definition or angularity. Her body is like bloated beyond belief. She has no waist or hips. Just a big round ball of goo.

how can someone not have waist or hips? -_- so how does she like walk then? hmmm?

Ok, I just saw her in concert tonight and I had a good seat so I really saw her. Whoever says she is ugly is blind. I think she is a beautiful woman and she not only is beautiful to look at, she has a voice to die for.she seems comfortable in her own skin. She had fun, took the whole audience with her for a great night of fabulous entertainment and left us all wanting more. Ugly? No way..beautiful in her own, unique way.no cookie cutter model to be sure but beautiful,non the less.

I think she has a nice face and even though she's overweight she carries it pretty well. I think you're t7ecotally right that if she had a normal Hollywood figure people would think she was really hot.

No.she is not ugly.

I have worked in retail and I used her name as an example to other women. For one she has a pretty face and for two she truly knows how to dress well for her body type. You can't help but notice the size of someone's body, but Latifah knows how to use what she has got. And the only people who notice the weight as the first thing about her are the ones who were hateful to begin with.

You are absolutely correct, Storm. Most ignorant people equate physical beauty with inner beauty. Although, I agree with you that QL is an attractive woman, I also value and respect others opinions of her beauty. Not all people think the same. Just as many people think Paris Hilton is beautiful, I think not. Everyone has thier different opinions of everything, which is what the world is about. Diversity! QL has a unique spirit and honest soul. She seems like she keeps it real 100%, and that is very attractive if you ask me. Even if I didn't know what she looked like, I would still say the same thing.

I agree with you, and although i respect that people have diffarent oppinions i think people are just mean if they say she is ugly, she is certanly not a ugly womanas for her weight why do you have be skin and bone to be conciderd "attractive"..she has a fuller figure which suites her and she looks beautiful just the way she is

no she's not ugly

In no way is she ugly I think she is Fine and Sexy.

i couldn't agree w you more i think she's amazingly pretty

Only women of her own race would say she was attractive. Others would refrain from their real opinions of her appearance for fear of retaliation and excoriation.

Get real ! She is equivalent to a female bison.

but i'm white though, and i think she's pretty

A white girl named "Moeshia"???!!!

Yea, right.

Overall, even though she's fat, I don't think she's ugly. I consider ugliness something that you can't get rid of without surgery. If she lost some weight (which isn't as hard as people make it out to be), she would look amazing.

I think she's pretty, but not sexy.

imbluzclooby-But I'm not a black female I'm a latin man and I think she is fine!

Well, Im not African American, and I think shes very good-looking.

wow.

imbluzclooby proves that beauty is skin deep but ugly is to the bone.

I'm your Huckleberry.

By whose standard is she ugly or overweight? Hollywood and those brainwashed to think only one group is attractive or sexy. There are celebs that are called beautiful who don't look as attractive as women I see around me on a daily basis. I am "plus" sized, but healthy. Never had diabetic, heart, cholesterol, etc problems and I just matured to wonderful 40. My husband and I are amused when men are caught off guard finding me attractive. I exercise when possible, but a muscle condition limits the frequency. People never know why a person is large, but remember beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Stop being hateful. 6 years ago when my family moved and would go to visit our old time people always referred to my size upon seeing me, now they have gained weight and they do not carry it well at all. Now they talk about how good I look. Their size is what made them look good. I make me look good no matter my size as I mature I embrace who I am, love myself, and carry with confidence. This translates in my dress, walk, and gorgeous smile. I don't allow smile minded individuals to reduce my value.

LOVE YOURSELF AND STOP JUDGING PEOPLE BECAUSE OF THEIR SIZE.

shes veryyyyy pretty but is she overweight thats a fact. no one is supposed to have so much fat on them but that doesnt mean shes not healthy, i think shes stunning

you sound very defensive about this. i am naturally big too but your being way too sensitive about this, anyone who gets so defensive about an obviously over-weihgt person does that cause they no its true. you sound very insecure as well as rather vain tbh :( not to sound offensive or anything thats just how it sounds

The idea of QL sanding naked before gives me shivers. And she can't really lose weight, cause her head looks like it weighs about 30 pounds. If she were skinny, her head would still be huge.

why are you telling me this?

What kind of shivers,Dog?

I agree, I've always thought Queen Latifah was very pretty. She has great skin, so clear and smooth. Her smile makes you feel better just to look at it.
I'm puzzled though, I thought she was Jenny Craig's spokesperson recently? What happened there??
I tell ya, Jenny Craig must be pulling their hair out. as none of the celebs that are spokespeople for them stay as thin! Look what happened with Kirstie Alley.
Not even Valerie Bertinelli, who is still thin but not like before.

I wonder if she changed her mind? Oh well, she's still pretty.

"Didn't he discover America?"
"Penfold, shush."

The opposite of ugly. Her skin and bone structure are amazing. Maybe she's overweight, but who cares? She's not playing Hollywood love interests. I think she rocks. I've followed her since she was a musician. I'm glad she's done so well.






Even if it means me taking a chubby, I will suck it up!

I am watching her right on on The Talk that I DVRd this afternoon. It is still September 10th here in California. She looks beautiful to me and I know that she hasn't been airbrushed. She has such a terrific personality and her smile lights up the whole studio.

She's overweight but anyone who calls her ugly is just trolling.





'Then' and 'than' are completely different words and have completely different meanings.

I don't find her ugly.

She looked beautiful in Steel Magnolias. She's not stick thin, but her size suits really suits her.

I think she's beautiful. Anyone who thinks she's ugly is a troll and doesn't understand real beauty. I don't think Latifah's had any plastic surgery or anything. This woman has a stunning persona, inside and out. I admire her so much.
