Queen Latifah opens up about kids, age and her assets at The Keep A Child Alive Black Ball in NY



The queen wants a princess — or prince.

Queen Latifah tells the December/January issue of More: "I'm definitely going to adopt — or have — a child. I've wanted to adopt since I was 17 or 18 years old."

The 41-year-old cover girl (and CoverGirl), who stars in the upcoming gospel-fest flick Joyful Noise with Dolly Parton, jokes about her and Parton's shared, uh, assets: "Can you imagine?...Dolly Parton and Queen Latifah singing, in one movie? All those breasts! We wish you all the breasts!"

There's more bold body talk. Latifah, for instance, seems to snub the idea of going under the cosmetic surgeon's knife: "When I was a kid, I was always the one hanging with older cool people. I've met so many people all through my life who made growing older look good. Look at Jamie Lee Curtis, not getting plastic surgery and not changing her hair."

The multi-hyphenate celebrity is typically frank about embracing her own faults: "People say, 'You have such beautiful skin!' But guess what? I get pimples, too. I mean, (expletive), I'm a woman, I have hormones. Who knows what is going on? I've just got to roll with it…The reality is, I like imperfection. You take away from the world when you're not yourself. Whatever is unique and special about you was designed by God. And when you try to be someone else, we don't get you."
