Jennifer Hudson Heads Back to American Idol, Plus Sister Julia Speaks About Surviving the Tragedy

Jennifer Hudson is reportedly returning to "American Idol" today to tape a performance that will air at a later time.


According to Associated Press reports the "Idol" alum is scheduled to tape a performance in front of the studio audience on Wednesday after the live broadcast has ended, says a person close to the show who did not want his or her name used because the person was not authorized to speak to reporters.


HILARIOUS at how they typed that long explanation for why the source wasn't identified!!!

Hudson's appearance will air on an upcoming segment, the person says. It will be the 26-year-old superstar's first time as a performer on the stage that made her famous since the slayings last year in Chicago of her mother, brother and 7-year-old nephew.


I think it's kind of a shame she won't be broadcast live -- I wonder if the current contestants will be taped with her or have a chance to talk to her at all. Jennifer Hudson is without a doubt the most successful "American Idol" alum, no? She has an Oscar AND the Grammy for best R&B album and she isn't even an "Idol" champ. She was a finalist on the third season of "American Idol."



Jennifer's not the only Hudson in the "Spotlight" either. Her sister Julia recently strutted her stuff in a Chicago fashion show for plus size women. She was honored there for her strength, and finally spoke directly to cameras about overcoming her loss. Watch below:



She cleans up really nicely and I think she did a pretty good job with the cameras. I can't think of anything worse than losing your mother and your child and having the man you loved allegedly be the one who took them from the world. At the same time though, something tells me Julia is enjoying that spotlight time. I wonder if she can sing too?

Jennifer is about to launch her tour with Robin Thicke. I'm posting the dates below:

It's something about Jennifer Hudson's sister that doesn't sit well with me. I hope she doesn't try to become famous.

UGGGHH Rebel...You just fucked my day up by posting that video....I'm all for pluc sized models to be able to have an avenue to showcase what they got as well and not make it seem like the runway is only for the skinny and frail...But, plus sized models weight still have to be somewhat proportionately distributed all throughout the entire body, if that makes any sense...
Case in Point: She got like 3 rolls that are very visible in the stomache area...That's not tasteful, and her body looks all dumpy when she strutting. When you big, you don't need to strut to hard, cause your weight is automatically gonna do it for you...

And why can't we get real models??? Nobody wants to put on fulfigured beautiful women...Either they put on the too damn skinny or the too damn fat...Why in the hell can't we take the bangin ass chicks from video's or even porno's for that matter, and get them on the runway???? Ok, I know the porno women is a little to far fetched...But lets be real, the porn industry have beautiful full figured women, but you never see these type of full figured women with donk's on the runway...I mean everybody likes a nice, phat ass, and I will love to see fullfigured women with donks on the runway...
I'M JUST SAYING KEEPING IT REALLY REAL!!!

I love plus size! I am one. I also love chicago designers like Kathryn Kerrigan, who designs for the plus-size shoe gals!!! Yipee! Go plus.
