Hot Shots: Jennifer Hudson Honors Sidney Poitier On Paradise Island

 “To Sir, With Love.” 

“Guess Who’s Coming To Dinner.”

“The Defiant Ones.”

The above mark only three groundbreaking movies to star the incomparable Sidney Poitier, who was honored in the Bahamas last night in celebration of his own career, and the Island’s 40th year of independence from British rule.

Joining Oprah Winfrey at the Paradise Island event was Jennifer Hudson, who arrived to tribute the 85 year old actor with her own single ‘Spotlight’ and a Whitney Houston medley, in honor of the late singer.

    Sidney Poitier: FIRST BLACK MAN to win an Oscar and a best actor Oscar at that.

    Jennifer Hudson: FIFTH BLACK WOMAN to win an Oscar.

    • mobwife: wtf is this trash? November 5, 2012

      Isn’t it disgusting that Sidney Poitier was the 1st Black Man in all those years to win and that JHud is only the 5th Black Woman? Hollyweird continues to be one of the most openly biased industries in the world!

    She has such a terrible style.

  8. S****** Blonde November 5, 2012

    Sidney Poitier one of the best actors of all times, what a man, all my respect , show respect m************.

  9. mobwife: wtf is this trash? November 5, 2012

    What is the hell does she have o her feet? The dress was not but black ankle boots? Who in the hell dressed this woman? LOL

    Sidney Poitier is a hell of an actor!! He did his share of dirt bck in the day but that changes nothing when it comes to his acting ability. He taught Denzel Washington well!! 🙂

    The Bahamas is an island nation, not an island. In fact there are 2,400 islands, rocks, islets and cays there. We celebrated our 39th year of independence from the British back in July on the 10th. Sydney Poitier is a Bahamian/American who was being honoured for his contributions to The Commonwealth of The Bahamas as well as the rest of the world.

    Do your research.
