Latifah self-esteem is contagious
Queen Latifah told Glamour how proud she is to foster self-esteem in young women, saying, I actually had a guy tell me yesterday, You know what? You really, really inspire a lot of young women. And for a guy to come up to you and say that, it just shows that it doesnt just affect women. It affects the fathers and the brothers that are around these women, and care about them and want them to have self-esteem and confidence in the right things. (Ethan Miller / Getty Images)
