Specifically, she is not prepared to talk about her
sẽxuality, which has been the topic of much debate. "I
don't feel the need to discuss my private life on this
show or any other show," she says somewhat wearily
as she eats a sushi lunch at her desk.
"There's the part of my life that the public and I share
together. And there's the part that's mine to keep for
myself. And that's mine. For me." Privacy has become
an archaic notion in an era of social media-enabled
voyeurism. But executives at Sony support Latifah's
desire to keep her personal life off-limits.
"It's her choice what she chooses to talk about," says
Holly Jacobs, executive vp syndication and reality
programming at Sony Pictures Television. "It doesn't
feel relevant to me because we're just making a big,
entertaining show and celebrating all of life. There's a
difference between talking about one's personal life
and one's point of view and perception of the world
and how they see it.
And I respect that people need to put boundaries to
whatever they want to talk about."
