pic of j hud
is it a musical?
Hopefully, Terrence Howard’s hair isn’t a distraction like Jamie Foxx’ was in Dreamgirls
After seeing the original photo this morning, Jennifer has the look down and will probably win another Oscar for her performance. She deserves it!
Jennifer Hudson is reaching down deep to perfect her role of Winnie Mandela. The Oscar winning actress is a hell of a lady, and she is exactly what they needed for this hell of a role. I can not wait to see my girl rise to the occasion. Jen Hudson is one of Hollywood’s young heavy hitters.
I look fwd to seeing this! I hope Jhud continues to get diverse roles!
She looks strange here, but good for her that she has the part. She’s very talented.
Jennifer Hudson is an muti-talented woman she has both ACTING & SINGING she did her thing in Dreamgirls as Effie White and she’s goin to do it again in Winnie as Winnie Mandela. If she plays this part well (which without a doubt she will) she’s goin to have another oscar nomination but this time for BEST ACTRESS and God’s Willing She’s going to be TWO TIME OSCAR WINNER JENNIFER HUDSON. SHE’S GOING TO GET ANOTHER OSCAR NOMINATION AND WIN AGAIN IM PRAYING THAT WILL BE SO. CUZ GOD KNOWS SHE DESERVES IT!!!! I LOVE U JENNIFER GOD HAS BLESSED U.
We played as extras on Sunday 15 August 2010. We had to wake up at 4am to be on set at 05h30 in the middle of Johannesburg only to start at 09h00. We are a lot of people still waiting for our payment as promised. Today is 17 September 2010. NOT A VERY HAPPY WINNE EXTRA
Who are they fooling?
Light skin Mandela with hazel eyes?
Get out of here.
And Ma Winnie got the LOOKS, this girl dont come close to that. SMH
Jennifer Hudson is one of the most talented actresses of today. I am glad she got this role and it is a huge opportunity for any actress to have landed it. Jennifer is a fantastic singer..but she is also a fantastic actress and a well respected one. I honestly do not think this role is one that did not care who played the part of Winnie.. the casting crew were looking for the best and Jennifer fit the role.
What I love about JHud is that no matter what she does, she gives it her all. She is respected for her strength as well as her talents and I do not think there is anyone else who could have pulled off the role of Winnie. I look forward to seeing the movie.
