Queen Latifah reveals sexual abuse in Essence


Queen Latifah hits the cover of Essence magazine for the July issue and reveals a secret she's kept with her for most of her life -- she was sexually abused as a child by her teenage babysitter.

He violated me. I never told anybody; I just buried it as deeply as I could and kept people at an arm's distance ... I never really let a person get too close to me. I could have been married years ago, but I had a commitment issue.

Pretty big deal that she came out with that, and maybe a reason she seems more into girls than guys?
