Queen Latifah is suing the production company behind her film “The Perfect Holiday”:
“The rapper-turned-actress’ lawyers have filed a lawsuit on her behalf in Manhattan, New York, claiming bosses at Perfect Christmas Productions breached her contract and owe her $275,000 (GBP137,500) for a cameo role in the comedy. Latifah, real name Dana Owens, co-produced the 2007 movie, which starred Terrence Howard and Gabrielle Union.”
SMH. This movie critic from rottentomatoes.com pretty much sums it our thoughts on this issue: “Queen Latifah…just showed up enough in The Perfect Holiday to either pick up a paycheck or return some kind of mysterious unpaid debt to [the writer-director].”

If she showed up enough to make the final cut, they need to give her what she is owed. I love Latifah and I hope she wins. She is not one to file baseless suits.

That movie didn’t make enough to pay her 3/4 of a mil. I wonder if they will pay her in “installments”…

If she was co-producer on the film she probably got her money from whatever the film grossed. But she is also an actress and if she appeared in the film she should get whats in her contract.

@EVERYBODY THAT BAD MOUTH THE QUEEN!
What the ***** is people problem these days there is nothing wrong with The Queen. She should get her money like everybody else.Most of you would want your check also,so why shouldnt she? Stop putting her down for her size she is not that big,Im sure we have all seen bigger.I have the bootleg copy of Perfect Holliday and The Queen was all up in it, unless I really got a bad copy.So I say pay her and dont worry about how she looks. Because Cover Girl loves the way she looks.Im sure a lot of you girls out there are slim and pretty but your azzes are not where The Queen Is………
