Queen Latifah

Queen Latifah is perhaps one of the most affable and recognizable faces in Hollywood. She wears multiple hats, from being an actress and singer to a producer and songwriter. If you ask us, the well-decorated star is perhaps best known for her credit role as Matron Morton in the award-winning musical film Chicago, for which she earned an Academy Award nomination for Best Supporting Actress. She is also an accomplished singer who produced bestselling hits such as Ladies First and Nature of a Sista’.

With such a storied and glorious career, you might think that the actress no longer gets insecure about anything, but this is far from the truth. Queen Latifah has also struggled with her weight, although she didn’t resolve to drastic surgeries to solve her problem. Instead, she started by embracing herself—flaws and all—which proved to be effective since she has lost 20 pounds since admitting her problem back in 2007.
