She deserves her recent EGOT status. Flawless performance.

Aretha Franklin choose Jhud to play her movie after witnessing this performance. Aretha wanted nobody else. ❤️

Jennifer: magical. Black Gospel choir: magical. Oprah Winfrey: magical. The Obamas: magical. We lived during an awesome era of excellence.

Even a strong woman need someone to hold her hand...

Her singing is timeless. She really gives the best tributes! Highly underrated artist.

Why is no one talking about that magical moment when Oprah and Steadman hold each other’s hand? He reaches for her spontaneously, then without a blink she holds her hands out and he instantly grasps them. I mean how beautiful is that?!!

Jennifer Hudson's voice is so powerful, it would be insulting to have her sing anything that doesn't project her full voice.
-
She tells a story when she sings.
-
As Oprah said herself on her show; It's a religious experience hearing Jennifer Hudson sing
-
When Jennifer sings, she not only tells a story but she makes sure she empties herself on stage. What a moving and captivating performance. I tell you they dont make them like this anymore.
