Why You Should All Hail Queen Latifah

Like Her New Show, She is a true "STAR."

Why You Should All Hail Queen Latifah
TV Series Finale

For those who don't know who Queen Latifah is, this is Queen Latifah:

She is an actress, singer, rapper and all-around amazing human being who has starred numerous films such as "Hairspray," "Set It Off," "Bringing Down The House," and my personal favorite, "Taxi." She also has been on TV including, most notably: "Living Single," the TV movie "Bessie," "Empire" and Star; creator Lee Daniels' new show, "Star" features an all-star cast including Benjamin Bratt, Naomi Campbell and, of course, Queen Latifah.

Even though I haven't seen the show yet, I am so excited and happy to see Queen Latifah on screen again. She has done couple of films like "Miracles From Heaven," "Bessie," and "Ice Age 4." Queen Latifah has been one of my childhood idols along with Jackie Chan. When I saw her receiving a Lifetime Achievement Award on the Kids' Choice Awards as a kid, she made me want to smile at life because she taught me to see the bright side of things in life. So whenever I hear about Queen's new project, whether it is in music or movie, I can't wait to see her shine. Here are 10 reasons why you should bow to the Queen:

1. Her way of loving herself

2. Her music


Especially in musicals!



Or bio-films like "Bessie," which won an Emmy Award for Outstanding Television Movie and more!


3. Her movies




4. Her humor


5. Her U.N.I.T.Y


6. Her way of taking care of her mom


7. Her smile


8. Her activism


9. Her support for female rappers


10. And her being a Queen


Do yourself a favor and check out Queen Latifah and cast in "Star" on FOX!

It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. But also a time of stressing over the perfect gift.

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

Bucket List To Live In The Now

Find excitement in your life and start exploring wherever you are right here, right now.

mu bucket list

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…

Great Value Colleges

If you go to or went to Kent State, then more than likely you have done or will do some of these things.

1. You’ve slipped and fallen on the ice at least once.

The winters at Kent are brutal, and while the heated sidewalks and some great snow boots are always a help, there’s no chance you won’t bust it on the ice at least once in your four plus years at school.
