Latifah Spotted At Lesbian Club


You know my feelings about outing people. There are some circumstances when it should be done (like in the movie Outrage, where closeted Republicans that pass legislature that harm the LGBT community are outed). As a general rule, I don't think people she be pushed or forced out of the closet. But child, when they're caught I'm gonna be first to tell you about it.

One of my all time favorite people in the world (and someone that I suspect is a member of the LGBT community) was recently spotted at a lesbian bar having herself a good old time. According to the New York Post, Queen Latifah aka Dana Owens aka Who You Calling a Bitch was sited at the Country Club's Wednesday night lesbian party "Eden." According to the source of the NY Post, "She chilled for several hours, ordering bottle service for her friends and chatting up promoter Maggie Collier."

Maybe Latifah is getting ready to make the big announcement. I think it would a terrific thing to have more out African-American celebrities. Lord knows there is plenty of room for more. Kudos to the few we have (Wanda Sykes, Rahsaan Patterson, Meshell N'Degeochello) but there are so many more that need to walk in their truth. But for Latifah, I love her death in or out of the closet. But if she decides to come out, she will fly to the top of my celebrity list.
