Has she been in a hit that she has starred in yet? I never liked her acting and cannot believe that Hollywood still allows her to bring her stuff to the big screen?

Anyone else?

If Mystery Science Theater 3000 was still alive, they might make some of her moves better.:D

Didn't she get nominated for an award in 'Chicago'?

Wasn't that the annual, "Crap, we better nominate someone that isn't white or we'll get sued" nomination?

:biglaugh: Yes to both...

But then again she did not have the main roll.

And Beauty Shop was horrible. I cannot believe that Kevin Bacon actually agreed to do that one. I was stuck on a plane and had to watch that or try to sleep. Ughh, I hate that...

I like Queen Latifah.

That Wal-mart commercial makes me laugh every time.

Although her newest movie, the one with LL Cool J.... eh. They just dont make a good pairing.

I haven't seen the commercials yet but will take your word for it...

In every movie she plays in if she has a romantic counter part they always get a guy WAY out of her league as if they are trying to please her artistic demand.... I don't get that... Rosie O'Donald doesn't get special treatment like that in movies...

Bringing Down The House was good. I like Latifah. One really should wonder how Rob Schneider keeps getting work.

I hope Hollywood is listening. I would LOVE to see a movie where Rosie O'Donnell gets a chick that is way out of her league.

Because there's a law that says he has to be in every Adam Sandler movie?
