I am so happy for Jennifer Hudson. She is such a sweet girl who despite not winning the American Idols Season 4finals still found ways to make a name for herself.
Jennifer Hudson won the supporting-actress Academy Award on Sunday for “Dreamgirls,” though her co-star and fellow front-runner Eddie Murphy lost the supporting-actor prize to Alan Arkin of “Little Miss Sunshine.”
“More than anything, I’m deeply moved by the open-hearted appreciation our small film has received, which in these fragmented times speaks so openly of the possibility of innocence, growth and connection,” said Arkin, who plays a foul-mouthed grandpa with a taste for heroin in the road comedy.
Hudson won an Oscar for her first movie, playing a powerhouse vocalist who falls on hard times after she is booted from a 1960s girl group. The role came barely two years after she shot to celebrity as an “American Idol” finalist.source
Congratulations Jennifer Hudson.
