Los Angeles, 17 de octubre 2014 – Los “Hollywood Film Awards” anunciaron hoy que la súper talentosa nominada a premios Emmy y Oscar, ganadora de un Globo de Oro como mejor actriz, ganadora de un Grammy, y anfitriona de un talk show, Queen Latifah, presentará la ceremonia inaugural de los HOLLYWOOD FILM AWARDS, con transmisión en vivo desde el Hollywood Palladium, el viernes 14 de noviembre (8:00-10:00 PM, en vivo Horario del Este/delayed PT) en la cadena de televisión CBS. Los “Hollywood Film Awards” han reconocido la excelencia en el séptimo arte por 17 años, rindiendo homenajes a algunas de las estrellas más grandes del celuloide. Este evento es considerado el lanzamiento oficial de la temporada de premios.
“Me siento privilegiada de ser parte de un show tan legendario como este”, declaró Latifah. “Los HOLLYWOOD FILM AWARDS han sido fundamentales en la temporada de premios durante muchos años, y me emociona ser la primera presentadora en llevarlos a la televisión!”
“Queen Latifah es la mejor. Es una triple amenaza – actúa, baila y canta. Es querida y apreciada por audiencias de distintos orígenes, y todo los días se encarga de divertir a millones de espectadores”, dijo Jack Sussman, Vicepresidente Ejecutivo de Especiales, Música y Eventos en Vivo para CBS. “Siempre quisimos tenerla como nuestra presentadora para la transmisión inaugural de los HOLLYWOOD FILM AWARDS”, acotó Sussman.
“Queen Latifah es una estrella de clase mundial”, declaró Carlos de Abreu, Creador y Productor Ejecutivo de los Hollywood Film Awards. “Desde el cine y la música, pasando por la televisión, su buen humor, su chispa rápida y su facilidad para divertir audiencias en vivo la hicieron la elección perfecta para presentar los HOLLYWOOD FILM AWARDS.”
Latifah fue nombrada como la primera dama del hip-hop y el rap a los 19 años, con el lanzamiento de su súper exitoso primer álbum “All Hail The Queen.” Su trabajo evolucionó hasta llevarla a ser nominada a varios premios Grammy, vender álbumes de platino, y en 2006 se convirtió en la primera artista del hip hop en recibir una estrella en el Hollywood Walk of Fame. Latifah ha disfrutado del mismo éxito en televisión y en cine. Su primera serie de TV fue “Living Single”; desde entonces, ha protagonizado alrededor de 40 películas, entre ellas “Jungle Fever,” “Living Out Loud,” “The Bone Collector,” “Chicago,” “Hairspray,” “Bringing Down the House,” “The Secret Life of Bees,” “Last Holiday,” “Beauty Shop” y “Joyful Noise.” Además, ha sido la productora ejecutiva y protagonista de una serie para HBO basada en un caso real, “Life Support,” que la hizo merecedora de un Globo de Oro, un premio SAG y una nominación para un Emmy. Fundó su compañía productora Flavor Unit Entertainment en 1993 con su compañero Shakim Compere. Este estudio que tiene sede en Miami, tiene actualmente varias películas y series en producción, incluyendo la producción de VH1 “Single Ladies” y de próxima aparición The CW reality show “The Star Next Door.” Además, Latifah ha escrito dos libros exitosísimos en ventas: uno, acerca del tema de la autoestima. El otro es acerca del diseño de una línea de ropa de muy buena acogida, y una línea de belleza para HSN. Por estos días, es la anfitriona de “The Queen Latifah Show,” un talk show producido con Shakim Compere y Overbrook Entertainment, productora de Will Smith, su esposa Jada Smith y James Lassiter.
Durante sus 17 años de historia, los Hollywood Film Awards han celebrado algunos de los nombres más importantes de la industria del cine.
