Queen Latifah To Throw Friend's Baby Shower

Queen Latifah has kids on her mind, but not hers - she's planning actress Paula Patton's baby shower party.

The actress/singer, real name Dana Owens, has revealed Patton and her husband Robin Thicke asked "Auntie Dana" to help them throw an April shower after the two women bonded on the set of their new movie Just Wright.

The Chicago star was only too happy to help, she says, "I love her (Patton). I've been watching her baby grow from the beginning."

The couple's son - their first child - is due in May.
