Queen Latitah continues to diversify her business portfolio as she now gets into the bottled water business as investor in New York Spring Water, Inc. The deal is in association with Latifah’s Flavor Unit Entertainment business arm, the same one that manages her film and TV projects.
“Latifah and I are really excited about this partnership,” Flavor Unit Co-Founder Shakim Compere stated. “New York Spring Water is an innovative company and is definitely at the forefront of new product developments in the industry.”
The hope is for Latifah to leverage her connections in film, TV and music to push the New York Spring Water brands such as VBee vitamin water and Aqua84. AHH states that distribution will be making its way to 7-11 stores in the next coming weeks. The biggest challenge though will be convincing people to pay for water that comes from New York.

The Queen Latifah and Common flick Just Wright opened this past weekend to the tune of $8.5 million at the box office which was strong enough for fourth behind Iron Man 2, Robin Hood and Letters to Juliet. Considering the big media budgets of the other films, Just Wright fell right in where most projected. It has aslo been widely reported that the film did not cost much at all to make and at least gave Common the opportunity to step up as a leading man in a movie. For those who saw it this weekend…let us know what you thought of it.
