The B-Side – Queen Latifah (featuring KT)

      Welcome to The B-Side! Here, we focus on movie stars—not the films that brought them fame or maintained it, but those they created during the gaps.

      Today, we highlight one of the most beloved celebrities today: Queen Latifah! Joining us is KT from the fantastic podcast “For Your Reference.” Our featured B-Sides include: Living Out Loud, Last Holiday, Just Wright, and Joyful Noise.

      We also delve into Queen’s book, her memorable BET Lifetime Achievement Award speech, her music career, and her prospects of achieving E.G.O.T. status. Engaging discussions ensue about her undeniable charm, her excellent taste in co-stars, a shared admiration for Michael Ealy, and praise for Queen’s performance in Bessie.

      We acknowledge the breadth of her life experiences, critique Common's role in Just Wright, and thoroughly examine Paula Patton’s contributions to the film. We admire the ‘90s vibe of Living Out Loud and the lasting message and uplifting spirit of Last Holiday. Lastly, we reflect on the memorable scene between Queen Latifah and Dolly Parton in Joyful Noise.
