For much of Latifah’s long, varied reer ( mic, film, and televisn) she has remaed rolutely vague about her personal life, while at the same time playg a number of inic queer rol and twice as many straight on. Ined, one of the reasons I wanted to clu Latifah this “Anatomy of a Lbian In” seri is bee of how she differs om some of the other ins I’ve mentned – those who are beloved part bee of their lorful queer datg history (Kristen Stewart, Cara Delevigne) or those who are ostensibly straight but play queer rol (</span><a href=" rel>Rachel Weisz</a><span>, </span><a href=" rel>Cate Blanchett</a><span>). </span></p><p><span>It has long been mored that Latifah is queer – om </span><a href=" rel>paparazzi shots</a><span> of her wh women to the time she referred to Pri atten as “</span><a href=" rel>her people</a><span>” – but wasn’t until this year’s BET awards, durg which she accepted the Lifetime Achievement Award, that such speculatn was more explicly nfirmed.
