Meet Jeannette Jenkins, Queen Latifah’s girlfriend and wife later this summer. The happy couple will be married under California’s new gay marriage law. See her hot video, biography, and photos.
So is Queen Latifah lesbian? Yes! Her marriage will be official later this year. The celebrity lesbians are expected to adopt a child as well directly after the ceremony in July!
Jeanette Jenkins’s biography is substantial. We know that she is Queen Latifah’s girlfriend trainer which means that she gave her nude rubdowns in a professional capacity. But she is much more than that. She is a professional celebrity trainer with a slew of YouTube videos and clients.
Aside from Queen Latifah’s trainer, her list of celebrity clients include Jordana Brewster, Kimora Lee Simmons, Christina Applegate, Ian Ziering, Amy Weber, Taryn Manning, Victoria Rowell, and Tom Arnold (he needs it!).
Jeanette bills herself as a “podfitness” trainer which means that she can easily tailor workout programs for busy people on the move. She is the founder and manager of The Hollywood Trainer and author of “21 Days to Make Healthy Living a Lifetime Habit” under the Penguin Books label.
On television she has appeared on Oprah, FoxNews, the Today Show, and Tyra Banks. Her DVD collection includes the “Hollywood Trainer Cross Training DVD System�?
Unfortunately her name is often misspelled “Jeanette.” Jenkins says that her mission is to “use her experience and education to teach and inspire men and women to live their best life.” Sounds like Queen Latifah’s wife is going to give her a good life!
Continuing her biography, Jeannette was born in Canada to a single mom with two other kids. She was drawn to fitness early, perhaps as an escape from the difficulties of the public housing project in which she lived. She has since become a child advocate, volunteering time for Meals on Wheels and various homeless children programs.

Are all her clients lesbians? It would be great to have gay trainers label their gyms as GAY so that the straight people can opt to go elsewhere rather than assume why their trainer’s hands are on their buttocks. For what it’s worth humans are the most pervert animals in the animal kingdom. All other animals are straight. You won’t see a dog jump a dog, or a bitch jump a bitch, not in a million years. So, homosexuality cannever be natural. It’s an invention of people with serious sexual and physcial insecurities.

I agree.

Actually that is not true about the animal part, homosexuality has been prevalent in the animal kingdom and it is not uncommon that it happens. There are about 1500 animal species that practice homosexuality, and it has been something that has been happening since the age of greece and before.
Secondly what about male gynecologists, should they not be doctors because they are heterosexual. It is there job, it is their profession and they take it seriously, just like a trainer would. Now if that trainer crosses the line, than that is an isolated incident and should be handled as such.
She’s a trainer, her personal life has nothing to do with her job, just like a doctors, nurses, engineers, post office workers, teachers etc. So if you go to a male personal trainer, would you expect him to feel you up, or would you expect him to be professional.
It’s people like you who are perverted contrary to belief every gay person does not want you.

I am just really sad that Queen Latifah is gay. I just do not feel comfortable about using her sponsored brands – Covergirl “is the Gay Girl” lip stick – Walmart is the gay store and of course Jenny Craig will be full of gay people in there class so I have just had to close my eyes to anything she promotes just because she is no longer a women “A She-man does not relate to me at all” and I would let my husband recommend a lipstick. I know this may seem mean but I am just saying after all these years of being straight – To just become another Ellen. I’m Not A Man so I will never use or buy anything that a man recommends.

I am not saying that I agree with her choice in lifestyle but I also don’t beleive that it is really any of our business. I don’t know about you but I wouldn’t want everyone to know what I do in my bedroom and I wouldn’t want to know what everyone does in theirs so why does it really matter to you. Is it going to change your life if she is a lesbian? If it does then you are some sad, sad, people!! I think that women are attractive and sexy and I am not a lesbian!! If that is what she wants in her life then let it be. I say live your life the way you want and be happy! You are one sexy woman Ms Latifah and I think you deserve to be happy because contrary to what people beleive being a star and having money does not by happiness or love!!! So you go and do what makes you happy… Your beautiful together!

Funny how you mention how Jeannette’s name is often misspelled….and you misspell it in your own article.
Ouch.

Hope she really loves Queen Latifah and is not just after her money and status. Because someone I know who went to school with her, said she only dated men before.
I would hate to see Queen heartbroken like Ellen with Anne Heche once Jeanette decides she wants children with a man.
December 24th, 2008 at 8:00 pm
LOL! Good catch Oakland:)
To me…all of the other information in the article is now absolutely invalid_if the author couldn’t get her name right, what else is wrong?

iam happy for queen-hell yeah she’s gay always have been , but because of homophobia in the black community she was closeted,i think she has a keeper with jeanette, and i feel they will be ok – queen knew what she was doing by keeping mum until recently-iam sure she has a planb if things go south-PEOPLE stop hating on people who are different-iam sure people who are gay dont decide it-it’s thier life let God be the judge

September 17th, 2009 at 11:00 am
first of all its none of your dam business about who gay and stragiht thats how people get beat up got damit!!!
December 27th, 2009 at 12:11 pm
To whomever it was that was worried the Jeannette may be there for her money because you know someone who went to school with her, I grew up with Jenny and her family, and they all are the nicest people you would ever meet. So, just because someone dated men in their teenage years means that they can’t be gay?? Keep in mind that years ago, when we were growing up, a person was basically run out of school if you were gay.
I wish them both the best of luck, and many happy years together, whether with a child or not!! Also, good for you Jeannette..nice to see someone from the area make it in life!!

You “ladies” are so SAD!! Like dont you realize ALL of you know someone who is gay or lesbian?? There is at least 1 in every family. May even be YOU!! You sound SO ignorant & uneducated. I feel sorry for your kids. You are practicing HATE!! Read a book or get some education. and GET REAL. Homosexuality has been around since the beginning of man. GOD created EVERYONE. STUPID!!
August 6th, 2010 at 11:19 pm
Holla, U like it or not she’s a star…..
August 7th, 2010 at 5:40 am
ITS TO BAD THESE WOMAN CAN’T HANLE BEING WITH A MAN. IF GOD WANTED US TO BE THIS WAY HE WOULD HAVE NEVER TOOK A RIB FROM ADAM AND MADE IT A WOMAN. IT’S A DISGRACEFUL LIFE STYLE NASTY LIFESTLE, GOD DID NOT GIVE US A TONGUE TO BE USED THIS WAY
August 13th, 2010 at 6:34 am
So Jeannette and Jeanette are Now the same thing… Duh, learn to read, a double “n” missing is still consider misspelling where I come from.
September 3rd, 2010 at 5:44 am
I never looked at it from this angle before, but this certainly is interesting and will make me think more about this. Probably will come back and have another read on this site.

I am disgusted by some of the things that you people have to say on here. If anything being gay and open about it is due to the lack of insecurities to be who they are and be damn proud of it.
Despite sexuality title gay people still have standards and who are you to think that by walking into a gym that you’re gonna be good enough to meet the standards of your trainer. Get real.
Homosexuality is natural and equally as normal as the hetero life style. Love is about finding that special someone to love and to cherish who will respect you and accept you for who you are, no where in that does it say it has to be of the opposite sex.
You wanna comment on a gay suspicion make damn sure you watch what you’re saying. You have no idea what people have gone through in order to live their life as who they are.
I think gay people are strong amazing people and in comparison to level of humanity they have you beat any day. You’re a poor excuse for how people should be treated, your assumptions are just as bad as the people that assume they’re going to be jumped when they see a black person ..do you agree with that statement too ??
If Queen Latifah is gay, so be it. Power to the girl and if not well as long as she’s happy then power to her all around for being the successful women that she is. I agree her private life is titled such for a reason it is no bodies business but hers and the person she chooses to be with.
So get a life and keep your homophobic comments to yourself. Her products are good products and being gay doesn’t make her a man you pathetic individual ..if anything she is more of a women then you’ll ever be.
September 30th, 2010 at 7:09 pm
Lord of Lord ..if you knew anything about god, you know that he would be ashamed of you for passing such a hateful judgment towards your own man kind. God created each of us the way he did for a reason with the differences he did and loves all of us just as much as the next person. God is OUR creator, not just adam and eve’s and CERTAINLY not just yours. Be carefully how you use his name, especially when in disrespect. If anything god did not create tongues to talk such b/s about other peoples lifestyle nor their sexuality. I pitty your children for not standing a chance to accept diversity in such a changing world. May god help you …
