Queen Latifah says a trainer called her ‘obese,’ and it seriously annoyed her.
Jeanette Jenkins, a trainer and health coach who says she worked with Queen Latifah, toldin a statement: “I did not measure Queen Latifah’s BMI. I do not use BMI charts. Those charts are based on your height to weight ratio, and they do not provide enough information. I measured her body fat percentage using two methods: bioelectrical impedance and with calipers.
"Body fat percentage is not the same as BMI. I then told her that she was over 36% body fat, which is in the obese category and the amount of body fat she carried at that time put a stress on her heart and increased her risk of heart disease. These are scientific facts backed by research from the CDC.
