Jennifer Hudson Belted Her Heart Out On The Today Show

[sunoftheskye]

One word: Wow.

I started crying when Matt was reading off those people Variety compared her performance to..Barbra, Bette, Aretha.

Then at the end of the song--the lyrics have that much more meaning since she had minutes before learned of her Golden Globe nomination.

Too bad she had to give her homophobic ideas of homosexuality being a sin in a previous interview in Dallas.

Defending herself she said we're all sinners thus, no apology.

You're an idiot. Re-read the interview. Grow a brain.

Here's the audio of And I'm Telling You, I'm Not Going on YouTube:



Jennifer Hudson, live performance of I Am Changing

 

[RomeGuy]

I've loved Jennifer Hudson since her beautiful and powerful rendition of "Circle Of Life" on 'American Idol'. I voted every week to keep Jennifer on the show and was devestated when she was voted off, she was my pick to win. This truly is a blessing for this spectacular and purposeful talent. It's exciting to be there at the beginning of career that was meant to be!

LMAO!!!!!!!

She betta WORK!!!

If she happens to be a homophobe then I must forgive her. That is definitely one of the best voices i've heard in a long time. There are so many out there singing in monotone with no highs or lows and singing without any emotion or conviction. There are so many socalled artists they all sound the same and leave you feeling that there is much lacking. They made a huge error in judgement when she lost on Amer. Idol

Damn she killed that shit, brought it back to life, then murdered it again. What an amazing talent! One more week and I finally get to see this darn movie! I'm so jealous of any of you living in L.A. or NYC!

 

[CountryJohn]

That voice is un frikken beleivable is all I can say. Oh, and believe me the girl is not a homophobe. I hate to see the media ripping and tearing at her already.

 

[GayBoyKellyCfan]

Horrid. Offkey and really pitchy. She yelled the song, more than sang the words... People wonder why she was voted off AI, well, 'cause she can't sing in a thing called a tune.

I just hope, her carrer dies after this movie and she can go back to binge eating and blow up another 300 pounds.

All I have to say to you is...to the left, to the left.

She may have been a little pitchy, but you have to keep in mind how early in the morning it is. It's very difficult for singers to put on their A-game at 8 AM.

If you watch her performance of it in the movie, you know she's the shit. And a much better live performance than the one on the Today show was posted in this thread, but I'm sure you didn't bother to watch it.

And you are seriously off your rocker if you think she was rightly voted off of American Idol. Even Elton John said she had the BEST voice of them all and was outraged when she was voted off.

Btw, if you must know...This breathtaking performance is the one she did the night before she was given the boot:

She's fat and ugly. A good voice, is a given... BUT American Idol isn't a singing contest. If it was, it would be on the radio. It's a popularity contest. You need the whole package. Jennifer didn't or still doesn't have the right look to be successful.

if you look none of the average (ugly) people from Ai do not have long carrers... Fantasia, Rueben, Diania, Clay.... but on the other hand the attractive (hot) people have huge slaes and longevity..... Kelly, Carrie, Chris...

If I had to guess right now, JHud would go in the average pile... she won't have a carrer in popular music, but maybe in like Broadway... you can be 700 pounds, it don't matter on Broadway. JHud will fit right in.

 

[DMich]

Her performance on the Tonight Show was just ridiculous, even better than the Today Show.

Is this who you're talking about????

 

[sunoftheskye]

LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOO

He's an idiot. Ruben Studdard, Diana DeGarmo, Fantasia, Taylor Hicks, Bo Bice, Clay Aiken, Kelly Clarkson....any of them conventionally attractive? I think not.

Like I said...to the left, to the left.

Leno Interview (She looks gorgeous, and way better than Ms. Clarkson btw):



Performance (WOW!!!):

 

[GayBoyKellyCfan]

Is this who you're talking about????

Wow, love the lines in her stomach... so toned and defined, yet she's got curves. With only a tad bit bigger boobs, she would have the perfect body. But anyway this isn't about the worlds biggest superstar, a woman who has moved a little under 20 million CDs with 6 #1 hits in just under 4 years. Hate if you wanna. Doesn't make a diffrence to me.

I voiced my opinion on what I though of JHud and her off key performance(s)... if ya ain't like it, who pointed a gun to ya head and forced you to read it?

That's all I got to say about it, wheather you be cool or come out of a bag, really don't make any difference. Thinking posing a pic of Kelly, insulting her, is going to make me change my thoughts on JHud? Ha.

 

[xyboyms]

I'm sorry GayBoyKellyfan the joke was just set up for me I couldn't resist LOL!
I really am a fan of Kelly (I bought both of her cds). I didn't mean to offend, honestly. I think there's tons of room for both fomer Idol contestants to make it in the crazy music biz.

Hey, that's your opinion...which you are entitled to post... I will not slam it, or stoop low to attack someone who's irrevelant to the thread. But that's just me.
