Dreamgirls unite!
As EGOT-winning superstar Jennifer Hudson continues to enjoy a critically acclaimed run on daytime TV with her new talk show, ‘The Jennifer Hudson Show,’ she’s making headlines for creating magical moments with some of Hollywood’s biggest names.
Fresh from her historic EMMY win at the 2022 ceremony, TV and stage icon Sheryl Lee Ralph stopped by Hudson’s show Tuesday (September 20) to to not only discuss the award show triumph but also season 2 of ABC’s hit series ‘Abbott Elementary,’ her legendary career, and so much more.
The singer-actresses couldn’t conclude their chat without paying homage to ‘Dreamgirls,’ however, because it was ultimately the vehicle that put them both on the map as Ralph portrayed the original “Deena” in its 1981, TONY-winning stageplay edition while Hudson nabbed Oscar gold for her performance as “Effie” in the 2006 movie version.

Last summer, ‘Shut Up’ rapper Trick Daddy was told to follow his own advice by legions of Beyonce fans (affectionately called the #Beyhive) following controversial comments he made about the diva’s singing ability.
“Beyoncé don’t write music and barely can sing her motherf*ckin’ self,” he said during a now-infamous Clubhouse chat (as we reported here).
Only making matters worse over the weeks that followed, Trick (born Maurice Young) incited further controversy over his statement by attempting to clarify the difference between ‘singing’ and ‘sangin.’
“To me a real singer is a Stephanie Mills, Whitney Houston, Mariah Carey, Alicia Keys, or Adele. To me, a singer is somebody who can go to church and give you the word. ‘Singing’ and ‘sangin are two different things,” he shared.
And though the flames from that firestorm of backlash had cooled, Young – thanks to quizzing from DJs at ‘The Breakfast Club’ a year later (April 14) – reignited them by doubling down on his polarizing stance.
