| Queen Latifah & Mr. Will-W. |
All hail The Queen!
The Queen Latifah flew in from Los Angeles earlier today to host the
P&G Beauty & Grooming Awards 2010, honouring outstanding Editorial and Creative talent in Canada. The event held at
The Carlu, brought together the who's who of Beauty, Fashion, Art and Design together with a panel of Experts choosing 13 winners in total.
Playing host to an enthusiastic crowd, the Grammy, SAG and Golden Globe Award winner was oh-so-radiant, never without a smile and certainly without a lull. Being the Face of CoverGirl Makeup, she admitted that her look could never be achieved without a team of Professionals and this evening was a tribute to those who dedicate themselves to the Art of Beauty.
Presenters tonight included handsome Photographer
Glen Baxter of
Fashion Television, who couldn't help but be a little smitten with
Queen Latifah, telling her "It's such an honour to share the stage with you tonight". Chatting with effervescent Television Personality/Singer
Jully Black earlier in the evening, she too expressed nothing but excitement at meeting
Queen Latifah earlier in the day during a run-through of the Show. Canadian Fashion Designer
Shawn Hewson told me, "
Queen Latifah is
Queen Latifah. She's just got this wall of greatness surrounding her."
Black, who was a Presenter tonight, brought the house down with her self-admittedly poor French, pronouncing the names of nominees and eventual winner of the Best Beauty of Fashion Blog (French) award with a knowing wink. Even Queen Latifah had to ask the audience jokingly after, "Are you sure you still need me here?".
