From American Idol to an award-winning singer and actress, Jennifer hudson has created a successful and lucrative life for herself. Hudson, affectionately known as J Hud, jumped on our radar in 2004 when she became a finalist in Season 3 of American Idol, ranking seventh. Fortunately, she didn’t let this loss determine her worth and deter her from becoming the vocal and acting power that she is today. Hudson has won an Academy Award, a Golden Globe Award, a Daytime Emmy Award, and two Grammy Awards throughout his reign in Hollywood.
With such a flourishing career, J Hud has gained experience to make his red carpet appearances unforgettable. Hudson underwent a weight loss transformation that shocked his fans earlier in his career. People thought she had lost too much weight, but to prioritize her health, she ignored the naysayers and kept the body most comfortable for her. As a result, we’ve seen her blossom whenever she makes a public appearance. Hudson’s love for sexy yet sophisticated pieces is a reflection of her personality. Bright colors, sheer panels, white suits, and flowing dresses are just a few of the jaw-dropping numbers she’s known to wear on the red carpet.
On Monday, January 17, Hudson will be honored for her career accolades on Urban One Honor’s “The Soundtrack to Black America” awards show. To commemorate this moment, we’re revisiting 10 of our favorite red carpet looks from talented Jennifer Hudson.
