"Each book contains background about social movements, fashion, and musical influences, plus excerpts from USA Today articles. Queen Latifah's childhood and family life, as well as Lady Gag's development of her persona, are covered in detail, while topics such as drugs and sexual orientation are also discussed. Fans won't mind the crowded layout. Latifah has a glossary; Gaga has a timeline." --The Horn Book Guide
--Journal"From the USA Today Lifeline Biographies series, this colorfully illustrated book opens in the mid-1980s, when teenager Dana Owens would sneak out of her family's New Jersey apartment at night, traveling to New York clubs where she could dance to rap music. Backtracking to trace her life from early childhood onward, Allen discusses the development of Owens' confidence and talents, her successful career in music and acting, and her reasons for choosing the name Queen Latifah. The clearly written text incorporates many quotes, all well sourced in the extensive back matter. Illustrations, mainly color photos, appear on nearly every page, while frequent 'From the Pages of USA Today' sidebars reprint short articles with titles such as 'Tearful Queen Latifah Recounts carjacking, ' while 'In Focus' sidebars offer background on related topics such as 'Hip-Hop Roots.' This very readable biography is a good starting place for curious fans." --Booklist
