Serving on entertainment duty for the event, see Hudson crank out the hits (including a particularly rousing ‘And I Am Telling You’ performance)  after the jump:

    Meh, If you heard one SCREAMER (XTINA) You’ve heard em all. :/

    She tries way TOO HARD to exude POWER & SOUL when it should be EFFORTLESS, Instead she sings AT & Not TO you… 😕

    oh no, i didn’t like it until the last 20 secs, too much over the top vocals and no restraint. sounded like a cat screaming at some points

    …Though she’s boring, and dull as an artist, she without a doubt has the BEST singing voice around!!

    @S***, stop embarrasing yourself, nuff said!!

  15. Radio August 3, 2011

    U beyonce stand irritate the f*** out of me. go kill yourselves. ugh! hang yourself in the nearest bathroom, stop hatiing on any and everything thats not beyonce…

  16. LTM August 3, 2011

    If Xtina and J-Hud are “screamers” the I must love screaming because I think they are great singers

  17. Blah August 3, 2011

    LMFAO @ Jenn being a scream(er). I find it funny when people say that. Normally they’re mad because her voice is wayyyy stronger than Beyonce’s, NATURALLY! & she has so much RANGE w/ NO VOCAL TRAINING. She is using the F**K out of that diaphragm, & the mixing technique; so much for ‘screaming.’ :D. Get em’ Jenn

  18. Owen August 3, 2011

    It looks like she has a penis in that picture

  19. OMG August 3, 2011

    @S*** BEYONCE SCREAMS NOTES JUST LIKE EVERYONE ELSE WO CUT IT WITH THE B*******!! THAT B**** ISN’T THE BEST SINGER! THERE’S NOTHING SO AMAZING ABOUT HER VOICE!

  20. nice_gurl August 4, 2011

    Sometimes she just screams a little too much, which makes watching it not as enjoyable.
