Jennifer Hudson

Rating: 10/10 (25 December 2006)

I have never seen an audience spontaneously rise as one and madly applaud a song in the middle of a movie. I got goosebumps. Then she kept having killer songs over and over again for the rest of the movie.. Jennifer Hudson was my pick for American Idol from the very beginning and now she shows that she can not only belt out a song, but make you feel it and feel her pain. An amazing performance! Beyonce was good, but she's been doing this for a while. It takes a lot of guts as a brand new actress to act with Jamie Foxx and Eddie Murphy. Also, I bought the soundtrack last week and it is great as well. There are many songs that I have been listening to over and over, but nothing as much as her showstopper - and seeing her perform it is totally different than seeing a concert performance.
