Sep 26 2018 - 7:50pm

Taraji P. Henson was the guest of honor on Tuesday's episode of The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon [1], and along with revealing the romantic details of her recent engagement [2], the Empire [3] star also professed her love for Cardi B and capped it off with a pretty spot-on impression of the superstar rapper. "What is not to love?" Taraji asked Jimmy before they both launched into Cardi's signature "Okurrrr!" Taraji even threw in a few expert facial expressions, too.

After convincing us that she could definitely get a gig as a Cardi stand-in, Taraji opened up about her recently established foundation [4]. Named after her father, the Boris Lawrence Henson Foundation aims to tackle the stigma of mental health in the black community. "He lived in his truth, he talked his truth. . . and his truth was mental illness," Taraji explained. Watch her funny, inspiring interview above.
