Jennifer Hudson paid homage to her idol Whitney Houston at the 2nd Annual Mary J. Blige Honors concert this past weekend. The budding diva performed a rousing set which saw her cover Houston’s version of ‘I’m Every Woman’, as well as ‘I Got This’ from her Gold-certified sophomore set ‘I Remember Me’.
Check out both performances after the jump…

Ha, “gold certified”. WTF for real! She’s lucky to have sold 250k total. This shipped statistic by the RIAA sucks. Soundscan should be the new standard. As for “budding diva”, she wont be budding much longer if her sales continue like it has. #FLOP
I’m bring real here…….. Love Jhud’s weightloss etc, but something has changed in her personality. It’s like she has the I’m better than you and kiss my feet thing to her. And the I’m every women song she should have left it Alone………. All the screaming and half way singing the lyrics, they just should have played the record with Whitney and reminisced on what was.
excuse type-pos Meant being and woman
We get it, you have a nice strong voice but where’s the total control and life, not boring. Jordan Sparks lots weight and looks amazing without all the loose skin showing.
YOOOOOOO Jen Kilt that Shyt!!
SING MA!
Beyonce fans should not be talking about anyone flopping, when her s***** ass single is performing the way it is . So y’all can sit it on down right now. Oh and for the record she is the s*** so she could act like it. Stay pressed b******.
Sounds like Chaka Khan. Though I much prefer Chaka.
J-Hud is determined to get that “next Whitney” shine and im sorry but she is the closest to her, Xtina shows some signs, but J-hud is started to learn how to control her voice and not be all over the place with it.
Maybe if JHud would have thrown a chair through a window she could have went Platinum. . . . Or maybe she could start wearing blonde wigs and shakin her as on stage ppl now days seem to only love tht type of s***
You are beautiful and deserve better life?

JENNIFER IS SO DULL AND COCKY. I HATE HER ATTITUDE AND HER KNOCKED KNEES!
yall hate VERY hard on this site..its unbelievable people hate so much behind a computer screen…smh…Uggs Giving Away Stuff After PETA called them out.. http://goo.gl/OeFMB to Get Consumers to Support them….haha got 2 pair!
MAYBE IF JHUD DYED HER HAIR RED AND WINED THROUGHOUT HER SONGS SHE WOULD GO PLATINUM. OR MAYBE POSE NAKED OR DAM NEAR CLOSE TO IT SHE WOULD GO PLATINUM. OR BETTER YET LET HER MAN HIT HER PUT IT IN THE TABLOUDS AND SING A SONG ABOUT IT. SHE BE A MEGA STAR. IT MORK FOR RIHANNA. AND HER PATHETIC CAREER.
why do i feel like she’s tryin to be the next Whitney! something don’t seem write, it just made me go to youtube to see whitney sing this at divas live- world of difference. Jen doesn’t have whit’s stage presence or her tone so it never quite works.
Monica tributes whitney all the time and she always takes time to speak about her, monica is real. Jen, i don’tknow, i feel she’s trying to use singing whitney’s sont s to take her to the next level but ain’t happenin cuz that cd sold 260k and flopping like crazy
@ JHUD MY GIRL: WHAT DOES RIHANNA HAVE TO DO WITH J. HUD? J HUD IS NOT SELLING BECAUSE HER MUSIC IS WEAK. SHE DOESN’T APPEAL TO THE YOUNGER CROWD, AND SHE BARELY APPEALS TO THE OLDER CROWD. SHE’S A ONE TRICK PONY! AND DON’T COME AT ME WITH THAT, “SHE’S AN ACADEMY AND GRAMMY AWARD WINNER” BECAUSE I DON’T CARE! SO IS JAMIE FOXX AND HE HAS SOLD MORE THAN HER!
I sorry but I DO NOT BELIEVE her cd is gold, I just dont believe it
lol f*** Monica don’t nobody care about her ass lol and all u hating ass queens on here..
it shipped 500k but it hasn’t even sold 300k yet
tink da label just did it to make ppl tink her album is selling #FAIL
is anyone checking for this cd at all?
LMAO @ da ppl sayin QUEENBEY’s single is a flop, dat means 1 song………. NOT an entire f***** album like JDUD’s
LMAO @ da ppl sayin QUEENBEY’s single is a flop, dat equals 1 song…….. not an ENTIRE F***** ALBUM like JDud’s!!!!!!!!!!
YAWNS
THIS B**** IS BORING LIKE I JUST CANT LMAO
SIPS MOSCATO!!!
PAWS UP!!!
O My GOSH i just saw pics of trey songz in his boxers at http://www.kelsnetwork.b*******.com/ FYI he is packing ….lol
She has the voice,but she does come off as stuck up. I hope she’s not trying to become the new Whitney because honestly j.hud only screams. Whitney in her prime is at a level jenn wishes she was at. Don’t be mad j.hud fans while she can sing she simply screams too much screaming isn’t singing
@Dabizness, J-hud has spoken many many times about Whitney being an influence, she has spoken more about Whitney than ANY other artist as her main influence.
and i agree she is not where Whitney was at her prime, but who is? she closer than any other singer of this generation
I used to like J. but not anymore she’s very cocky. I’m sooooo glad Kelly Price is dropping a new album a real DIVA!!
I actually always found JHud to come off as smug and arrogant. I think when she was heavier before people would just look pass it. Now, I think it’s finally more obvious with the weight loss and added feeling of superiority! I personally don’t really care for her approach when it comes to singing. She’s loud and simply does not move me. Whitney was never that thoughtless when she sung. It’s about thinking of the lyrics and singing with passion – not only showing off what your capable of doing vocally. JHud is improving, but she still has some growing to do.

Take a closer look J Hud have hip pads on both sides. That is why she look so wide.

************************
I have one even better than that f***** chair (throwing shade) She need to get some knee pads and suck off everyone in her record label or in the industry plus dress in stripper clothes
Hope Jen is not trying to be the next Whitney because that means she will end up with no voice, be strung out at Prince concerts, divorced, have daughter on drugs. Please be better than this has been.
She is no Whitney obvoiusly but almost nobody is!!!
I like I got this and some other songs on the album. For Bey stans: some songs on Jennifer´s album are definitely better than Run the world (girls)
Wow. “She seems cocky?” Wow…I think she acts the same way…humble and sassy. I follow her on twitter and some random girl posted (well I know her to be a big fan..but random to you) about going to try to see Jennifer outisde of the studio (she did not have tickets) in London. Jennifer tweeted her back and asked for her name. Looooong story short, she got the girl front row seats and they kicked it backstage together and was talking like old girlfriends. What other celebrity does that? Also…look on youtube…just last week some fans were waiting outside her hotel all day and she went out to speak with them, sung Mariah Carey & Whitney songs …she even let some fans sings for her and she put it on her camera phone. Who else does that? Cocky must mean something else cause that is not Jennifer. Look it up. Evidence….I’m not lying. Peace.
@ CURLY SUE AND ALL U OTHER JHUD HATERS. HOW ABOUT U GO UP AND SING. CAN U GET A GRAMMY. CAN U GET AN OSCAR. NO NO NO BOO BOO. I DONT THINK SO. SO SIT YA DRY THROAT YELLOW BELLY ASSES DOWN. S*** SHE DOING HER THING. REGARDLESS OF WHAT U SAY SHE GONA STILL BE AMAZING.
