So who the hell is Jennifer Hudson?

She is a support in the film Dreamgirls, the fictionalised version of The supremes and she plays the MAry Wilson/ejected character.
I repeat the film is highly fictionalised.
But its good. Beyonce stars but is completely eclipsed by Hudson.
She sounds like Mavis Staples. Prime Mavis Staples.
And in the middle of the film as she is sacked is her stand alone number. I think its called I'm Not Going.
The rest of the cast are great. Hudson is a brand new star.
On this one song she just lets it flow out of her. Its mesmerising.
I can think of nothing this side of Tim Buckley screaming on Greetings From LA that comes close.
Its spectacular.
Its wonderful.
And she was on American Idol. And before that she was singing on cruises.
Its wonderful.
I am gushing. But you should hear her.
