Contagion, Steven Soderbergh’s movie about a deadly virus that causes a worldwide pandemic is the #1 movie in America.

The Warner Bros. thriller took in $23.1 million over the weekend, enough to wipe out The Help, which ended its 3 week run at #1.

Contagion, starring Oscar winners and nominees Matt Damon, Kate Winslet, Jude Law and Gwyneth Paltrow and Laurence Fishburne, has exceeded studio estimates at the box office.

Actress Sanaa Lathan, 40, who plays Fishburne’s fiancée in the movie, was in Atlanta on Friday to promote the movie. The buxom beauty participated in roundtable interviews with local media.

Your auntie was the only blogger invited to interview Lathan at the Four Seasons hotel. Unfotunately, we couldn’t make it so we asked celebrity blogger Tami of Talkingwithtami.com to sit in on the interview since she’s better at that sort of thing.

Below are excerpts from Tami’s interview with Sanaa, which you can read in full by clicking here.

On her favorite things in her closet
“Ooh, I have these one pair of red suede Louboutins that zip up the back. I always pair them with a black dress, they make me feel hott! I wear them a lot lol.”

On her favorite designers and personal style
“Day-to-Day I love Bohemian Chic. I’m a flower child lol. I love Louboutins, Prada, YSL shoes. I wore Rachel Roy to the premiere of Contagion.”

On her exercise regimen
“I workout 30 minutes a day on my mini trampoline. I also use this thing called the rebounder. It really works your core,abs and more.”

On what she thinks about social media
“I like it. I have a fan page on Facebook and I’m on Twitter @justsanaa. I keep it real and usually just keep it professional. I’d rather be boring than to regret something later. Its public record you know.”
