OCNN Invades Queen Latifah Press Conference At Super Bowl XLIV

61414_super_bowl_football_medium

SB Nation's Joel Thorman of Arrowhead Pride is on the ground in South Florida, providing reports, commentary and impressions from Super Bowl week.

Yes, you read that headline correctly. OCNN is outworking all the major media outlets at the Super Bowl.

Okay, that’s a stretch but the OCNN staff is everywhere down here.

This afternoon the NFL conducted a press conference here in South Florida for Queen Latifah and Carrie Underwood. Latifah is singing "America The Beautiful" and Underwood is singing the "Star Spangled Banner".

Ochocinco, the reporter, attended the press conference and asked Latifah if she ever thought she would be singing on a stage like this.

You don’t. You joke about it, even. You look at TV, you look at movies. You hear your favorite records, but do you ever imagine you’re actually going to be there? I can’t say I ever did, but I’m so honored and privileged to have this opportunity to do this and to be in such amazing company and to be around such elite athletes. Everyone is here.

Again, only at the Super Bowl do you find Ochocinco whipping out a microphone and interviewing Queen Latifah. Here’s the photographic evidence (courtesy of @OGOchocinco) to prove it:
