“We officially confirm that Queen Latifah will join the Jenny Craig program in January. We are thrilled to have Queen Latifah support our mission of improving health by taking her first step toward achieving a more healthful lifestyle. Queen Latifah joins forces with Jenny Craig to communicate the importance of how small lifestyle changes, in the areas of diet and exercise, can have positive effects on overall health.”

We initially thought it was a bit hypocritical of QL to agree to work for Jenny because she has always been the poster child for the “big girl and proud of it” camp. But the good folks at Jenny Craig insist that this campaign is designed to be focused on living a healthier lifestyle not getting to a certain weight or dress size.

We wish Latifah the best of luck, but if living with a famous celebrity trainer can’t get your healthy, it doesn’t seem likely that Jenny Craig is the right solution.

Page Six ran a blind this blind item yesterday stirring up gossip blogs about which major star was about to come clean about being a lesbian. Speculation was split fifty/fifty between Jodie Foster and Queen Latifah. Then late yesterday our friends at MediaTakeOut.com confirmed that QT and her longtime girlfriend Jeanette are in fact officially engaged.

Queen Latifah and her longtime girlfriend Jeanette are OFFICIALLY ENGAGED!!! The two women have been in a relationship for more than 4 years – and they’ve finally decided to make it official. And there’s more. MediaTakeOut.com can confirm that the two are planning on PUBLICLY coming out to the world about their engagement. Word is that once Queen Latifah’s finished promoting her current movie, The Perfect Holiday an announcement will be made. MediaTakeOut.com can’t reveal our source to this story, but we can tell you that we’re 100% sure on this one.

Congrats to the happy couple! And a special “You Rock” to Jeanette for her new fitness DVD which is on it’s way right now to HWB headquarters to be used in our post-holiday guilt-fest workout.
