Queen Latifah will be putting a woman’s touch on the world of sports talk later this year. According to “The Hollywood Reporter,” Latifah has reached a deal with AOL to produce and star in a web series about sports, entertainment and entrepreneurialism. The project will be overseen by “Huffington Post” co-founder Arianna Huffington. Along with her web series, Latifah will also be putting together a sports-themed talk show for women. While the “Just Wright” star won’t host the show, she does plan on being a regular visitor. She remarks, quote,
“I’m kind of the Barbara Walters. I’ll definitely float in and out.”
Queen Latifah is just the latest celebrity to sign on with AOL. In the past eight months Heidi Klum, Gisele Bundchen, the Jonas Brothers, Mark Burnett, and Ben Silverman have all signed content deals with the media company.
Latifah is currently in the ATL filming a movie I tried to get some pic’s on the set but they have it locked down.
