Queen Latifah Wants To Bring Home Kids From Haiti

Queen Latifah Wants To Bring Home Kids From Haiti

The multi-talented Queen Latifah stopped by The Today Show yesterday to chat about her current projects on and off the big screen.

The Chicago star discussed the latest cause that is near and dear to her: Working with Pure, a company that helps to provide clean drinking water for people who need it around the world.

When talk turned to Hollywood's efforts to aid Haiti in the wake of the devastating earthquake that hit earlier this month, Queen Latifah revealed that her thoughts are with the country's kids.

“I wanna just go down there and get some of those babies," she said. “If you got a hook up, please get me a couple of Haitian kids. It’s time. I’m ready. I got two arms, I can handle at least two. I can take a third in a backpack, and one in the front, we could just wrap it in some swaddling cloth…give me four."

This isn't the first time that Latifah, 39, has talked about adopting. In 2007 she told Ellen DeGeneres, "I want to have and adopt [kids]. I always have, ever since I was 18 I wanted a baby and I wanted to have and adopt because there are a lot of kids."

I have mixed feelings about this. Yes, i think it's great that she wants to adopt kids from Haiti, but there are so many kids right here in America that needs a loving family just as bad as any other kid around the world.

Doing things like what Angelina Jolie has done is really wonderful. If you really have the means to do those kinds of things, then just do it. By that, you are able to save some lives. The kids would surely be very grateful to have you as their mother.

All the celebs are now adopting. is this a new trend? All because of angelina jolie? But i guess it's a good thing and if Queen Latifah has the means then she's on my good books.

The beauty of these blogging engines and CMS platforms is the lack of limitations and ease of manipulation that allows developers to implement rich content and 'skin' the site in such a way that with very little effort one would never notice what it is making the site tick all without limiting content and effectiveness.

Good luck getting people behind this one. Though you make some VERY fascinating points, youre going to have to do more than bring up a few things that may be different than what weve already heard. What are trying to say here? What do you want us to think? It seems like you cant really get behind a unique thought. Anyway, thats just my opinion.

Daniel said:

While tons of aid have been delivered to Haiti so far, it isn't nearly enough considering that 3 million people there need food and water. I suspect once the new air tower is erected at the airport and when they are able to reopen up the port that then this will allow aid to more easily get to those who need it. Right now the airport is a major bottleneck in getting food and water to the people.
