The final season of American Idol is over. Unfortunately, our girl La'Porsha didn't take home the title, but the finale had a handful of surprises. One of them was a breathtaking group performance featuring Season 3 winner Fantasia, Jennifer Hudson, and Latoya London, who also appeared on season 3.
The group sang "Bridge Over Troubled Water." With their crystal clear vocals, they're a wonderful reminder of how much talent has graced the Idol stage.
Jennifer Hudson rounded out the performance by singing "Remember the Music" from Empire.
The Color Purple on Broadway opens on December 10, and the show's stars are busy promoting the musical's revival. British actress Cynthia Erivo stars as Celie and Jennifer Hudson plays Shug Avery. The two performed the show's title tune on Good Morning America.
The trailer for Spike Lee’s newest film "Chi-Raq" has hit the internet. The film stars Teyonah Parris, Angela Bassett, Jennifer Hudson, Samuel L. Jackson, Nick Cannon, John Cusack, and more. It focuses on gang violence in parts of Chicago and is based on the Greek comedy “Lysistrata,” by Aristophanes.
Jennifer Hudson will play Shug Avery in the Broadway revival of The Color Purple set to open December 10th. The cast also features Cynthia Erivo in the role of Celie and Orange is the New Black's Danielle Brooks as Sofia. Hudson gives a preview of her incredible take on the song "Too Beautiful for Words" for the revival musical in the video below.
Jennifer Hudson teamed up with W Hotels and Humans Right Campaign to support marriage equality through the visuals for her song "I Still Love You." The video also helps support Logo’s #All50 campaign, a platform to keep up to date on the latest news of marriage equality until the Supreme Court’s pending decision to legalize gay marriage in all 50 states.
It's been three years since Jennifer Hudson released her second album "I Remember Me." She will soon release a new album, and she's released a video for her new single 'Walk it Out.'
This is definitely a new feel for JHud. The single is available for purchase on iTunes or Amazon.
