“I Am Changing”: Jennifer Hudson Makes Her Diva Debut

Fame and fortune appear to be floating to this Dream Girl’s head, as Hudson tried to chug out of an appearance at the Soul Train Awards Show in L.A.
According to Page Six, the Oscar-Winning “Idol” called the day before and claimed she couldn’t make it. Well, that was until music mogul Clive Davis called her up and obviously told her something to the effect of “And I’m Telling You, You Are Going” because a swanny Jen showed up.
To join the Oscar and Golden Globe on the Hudson Honor Roll is a prize of a different kind, an all-you-can-eat supply of Burger King. Jennifer worked in Chicago at the fast-food chain as a teen singing while she flipped the fries, but was so bad at her job she ended up quitting.
But to add insult to “Idol” injury, Hudson has compared working at the burger joint to her experience on the reality TV contest. When asked why didn’t thank the Cowell clan in her Academy Awards speech, Jen snapped:
“If I'd been any better at my job when I was at Burger King in my middle teens, I wouldn't be here either, so should I thank them, too?"
By the sounds of things, the Dream Girl diva should have no problem playing Aretha Franklin on the big screen.
Franklin confirmed to Access Hollywood that Hudson was suggested for the part, if the story of the soul singer is made into a movie.
