Cup still overflows for Chicago star
Oscar-nominated Chicago actress and singer Queen Latifah says she underwent breast reduction surgery because of back pains and not for cosmetic reasons.
“It wasn’t for confidence or image,” she tells USA Today.
“I’m the anti-Hollywood girl. The more people encouraged it, the more I resisted it. I know a lot of people who run to the plastic surgeon for every little thing. But me? Don’t touch my nose, my hips, my stomach.”
The 33-year-old actress said that after the surgery she went from “well over an E cup” to a double D.
“It took a while to recover from,” she said.
“I don’t encourage people to go get surgery. I think they often do it for the wrong reasons, thinking if they have breast implants or a nose job it will make them feel better about themselves.”
Queen Latifah, who is due to start filming Barbershop 2 shortly, says: “I’m still a big, pretty girl.”
