Taraji Covers Glamour Magazine's October Issue

Hollywood Actress Taraji P Henson made the face of Glamour Magazine's October Issue, the 44 year-old single mother one, popularly know for her role in the popular series film "Empire". See more photos after the cut..





 She was hailed by Glamour Magazine naming her season's leading lady.

Her inspiration: The actress (seen here as her character) says, 'After 17 years in prison, Cookie feels there is nothing to fear. She made it out alive. In her mind that's how strong she is. We all have that strength inside us. We just have to choose it'The 44-year-old told the magazine: 'When I got pregnant in college, people said, ''This is it for her.'' But I did not stop. I never missed a class. I was in the school musical when I was six months pregnant - we just made the character pregnant.

 'I wanted to be an actress; I moved out to L.A. with him. People were like, ''Are you crazy, moving to California with your son?'' My father was like, 'Leave him home.'' I said, ''I can't leave my son at home.'' [And eventually] my father said, ''That's your baby. That's your blessing. 

He's going to be your strength.'' And you know what? He was. I didn't have time to go to the club to 'network.' That's B.S. No business deals go down at the club. So I didn't get caught up in that. I had a mission. I had to make my dream come true. If I didn't, what was I proving to my son?'

Doing it her way: Just like her beloved - and feared - character Cookie on Empire, Taraji has had to ignore what others think she should do and listen to her own voice
