After a period of grieving the death of her mother, brother and nephew, singer Jennifer Hudson has resumed her professional career and is getting the full support of her fans. Last night Jennifer won a Grammy for Best R&B Album and her acceptance speech was filled with love for those who she has loved and lost.
“I don’t really know what to say. First of all, I’ve got Whitney Houston presenting to me and, wow, I’m just in awe right now. But I would first of all like to thank God, who has brought me through. I would like to thank my family, those in heaven and those who are here today. (My fiance) David Otunga, who’s here with me tonight. My sisters, who are here. I just don’t know where to start. Everybody, thank you, thank you all.”
Hudson’s first solo tour is set to begin on April 2nd with singer Robin Thicke. The pair will co-headline for a five week U.S. tour.
