u.n.i.t.why?

I totally forgot about Queen Latifah. Until this last Christmas when I was barraged with Wal-Mart commercials featuring her and other notable musicians I can't remember at the moment. At first I didn't understand why these people were supporting Wal-Mart. Don't we all hate Wal-Mart? Then I realized I have no idea why Miss Latifah is asked to do these commercials at all. Why is she famous? I remember that one song she sang back in 1994, and I know she has been in a variety of lame shows and movies. But that doesn't cut it. Are there any fans out there who can break this down for me?
