Queen Latifah Ganked in Tobago

Posted by Bossip Staff

Queen Latifah

The Queen was out in Tobago for the holidays, and got ganked at her bad ass villa:

Tobago police believe the theft may have been committed by a member of the house and grounds staff assigned to the villa during Queen Latifah’s stay at the US$1,000 (TT$6,300) a night villa at Stone Haven Villas, Black Rock Tobago. Investigators said there were no signs of forced entry and this led them to believe the heist was an inside job. Queen Latifah, whose real name is Dana Elaine Owens, arrived in Tobago last week for the Christmas holidays and checked into the villa under the name Cynthia Hadden. She gave her address as California. Reports are the 35-year-old star, who received an Academy Award nomination for a supporting role in the movie Chicago, is staying at the villa with a female friend.  A barbecue brunch was organized on the secluded-gated compound in her honor by the Stone Haven management from at about 10 am on Monday. Queen Latifah, however, returned to her villa at about 12 noon and discovered that her US$10,000 bracelet, two gold rings, a gold chain and a silver ring had gone missing. She alerted the manager of the villas and three security guards were summoned to conduct a search. They did not find the missing jewelry and the police were contacted. Investigators from the Old Grange Police Station, led by Sgt Alicia Piggott, went to the villa and took a statement from Queen Latifah, who said the jewelry had a sentimental value to her and expressed her willingness to offer a reward. The upset star hoped to have her jewelry returned before she leaves Tobago today.

Looks like those Tobagonians  got her for her meaningful belongings. This is different than a chain snatch. We wonder what nice piece of pooh she took out there secretly…

    Times are hard and these celebrities seems to be caught slippin all the time. Is it really that hard to invest in a safe or use the one the hotel provides.

    Princess: Don’t worry about it. I have been to beautiful Trinidad and Tobago. Some people are going to do whatever strikes them no matter where you go in the world. There is crime everywhere, even in paradise. Some human beings would be malicious even if you transported them to the Moon.

    Oh please Princess: lets keep it real TnT is going down the tubes just like Jamacia. The Queen should have known better than going to any of those islands with that amount of valuables. Born and raised in TnT…they are s*****ing criminals in that country, so it’s no shocker on this end. If she was smart, she would do like the rest of us smart ones, and left all expensive stuff home, and walk with the fakes, no bunch of cash, ID, and mad money (card) to get the hell out. Keeping it real.

  20. Pimp Sauce

    What the f*ck happened to the back to article button?

  24. dean austin

    Why is that when brothers/sisters get robbed its always jewelry, its never Bearer Bonds or something of real value. We are presidents now, we need to up our game.

  25. Carla

    Why did she take $10,000 jewlery there ?

  26. kp

    um…celebrities are sometimes given or have jewelry for special appearances. Some of the peasants may not know that.

    People are asking like, “why did the king have a gold crown with him…idiot.?

    She’s Queen Latifah morons. She’s going to have valuables like that with her. She was probably there working & vacationing. It happens to celebrities all the time.

  27. Sy

    Its real simple,when I visit the caribbean, the people look richer than me.White t,shorts, $8 payless sneakers and sun gl*****es.Not even a watch. While they got on nikes,fitteds ,fake jewelry and all that extra stuff. But guess what? I got a rental,eat out everyday, a few bills in my pocket, even got a bank account where I visit, I Party every nite, meet mad women. Almost not once, I can be suspected as a vistor. The island I visit, I grew up there. Sometimes ppl don’t reconize me.

  28. Roe ski Love

    The item that was stolen and not reported to the police, was the diamond studded *****, that had alot of sentimental value.


  29. dang hope she can get her jewelry back the queen is beatiful

  30. true to the game

  31. Trini

    Lee lee….why don’t people like you just hush! You left Trinbago and ran and now think you have the right to talk rubbish.

    “they are s*****ing criminals in that country”
    There are a lot of great people who are still here, you hide behind your pc and read the papers online and think you know. obviously you ain’t know shyt!
