Jennifer Hudson - Idol Song

[AlDivaB]

J Hudson was not and is not the American Idol but the American Dream herself.

[nizzystar]

is she using lightning cream or sum?

[Choclongleggz]

thats why she is top dog now, they didnt give her the win because she was too damn powerful for those judges ears! she blew their drums out way back when, no look at her! She has a very very powerful voice and they just never saw it!

[elvickRULES]

Yeah the runs at the end were weak, but you can see the raw talent in a lot of these contestants on shows like this. These shows aren't very nurturing for raw, untrained, talent. They still don't know how to handle it.

[MultiLamoya]

u go girl!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[sixfobrutha11]

I see what Paula was saying, but Simon was a little harsh!!! Overall she did okay, but at the end was a train wreck!!!!

[jljacques10]

Listen to Simon's sorry ass lol...J Hudson has outdone all the American Idol winners with her soul vibe!!!

[Jamaicanchocolate34]

I knew he was mean to her and to people in general, but I had no idea he was THIS mean! My God, what shame pie he has to eat now everytime he sees her collecting awards in both music and acting...smh...some people can be so mean.

[mslinda1921]

do the judges really kno what they are talking about cuz jennifer hudson is amazing

[doh1959]

i swear shes changed the lyrics it sounds like shes singing. iv been a rock and iv got my fake tits i never let them hang

[gratefulgracy]

Unfortunately those were not famous last words for Simon he will keep spouting his ridiculous rhetoric on yet another talents show....Awesome performance by Jennifer she is a true talent and a stellar individual.

[AAA3172]

I bet SImone eating his fucking words now. LOL

[MOSKII58]

Simon must cringe when (if) ever he sees this..lol talk about eating your words, that's the thing i realize about the man, either he catches on to somethg no one else sees or he is off on a tangent that is all his own thing and he becomes dead wrong..

but you gotta admire all he and Jennifer have accomplished....

[mrghosthunter207]

simon was right on!!!she so freaking overrated its funny...

[AAA3172]

@mrghosthunter207 Ur either tone deaf or smoking crack. J-Hud has control, power and range. She'd blow Beyonce out the water!

[hontoa1]

I rememeber this like yesterday.... this was the first night that jennifer got rid of the big hair.

SOME ONE SHOULD RE NAME THIS VIDEO "NO ONE ELSE ON EARTH"

[jazyfred]

man they were sooo full of shit ,because look at her now....What the hell they were looking at!!!! she is a superstar n amazing singer Helloooww!!!!Knock nok nok

[Aneba76]

Simona Cowell how wrong were you ?

Too good for this competition.

[coccinelle80]

Paula Abdul being a judge at a singing competition is like Rosie O'Donnell judging a bikini competition! Simon Cowell sho' ate his words later!! Congrats Jennifer YOU ARE THE BEST! God bless you and the spirits of your mom, brother and nephew!

[XtremeKurvez]

Simone is a Bitch

[babygirl77sx]

I seriousely don't like Simon. He acts like shit all the time. 

[The19Stars]

You guys don't get that Simon was being rude to help her out! So that she could prove him wrong that she is the best singer lol

You could tell that was what he was trying to do :D

[hatedbyniccaz]

@The19Stars I agree and i BELIEVE that is what made her break out because after that she showed out and proved that she was good.

[kharitaskevin]

simon who ?????

[TheNobleBard]

Eat your heart out Simon Cowell.

[HESENTME2]

SIMON WAS SUCK A JERK TO HER YES SHE DID HAVE MORE POTENTIAL AT THAT POINT BUT TO SAY THERE IS NOTHING MORE YOU CAN DO AT THIS POINT TO WIN THE COMPETITION? LIKE THE OTHER 11 ARE BETTER WAS JUST WRONG! SIMON SUCKS FANTASIAS VOICE......... ANYWHO SHES PROVED HERSELF NOW OVER ALL THE REST. NOW THE BEST IS YET TO COME!

[Nick153452]

Better singers? Who has done better??? Fantasia who? Diana Digarmo who? We all know that emmy award winning JENNIFER HUDSON THOUGH!! Just more proof that Simon is out of his league.

[HouseMD14]

@Nick153452 I agree with the Fantasia comment, but Diana Digarmo is in the touring company of 9-5 playing Doralee (Dolly Parton's Character) So she is on the same level as Hudson, I saw 9-5, and she was INCREDIBLE. She deserved runner up and Hudson should have won.

[lozzieb912]

Well... she proved simon was way wrong... How many oscar winning films has he been in........ Dream girls??? :D

[lanamalic]

I think that Simon said that because he wanted Jennifer to get on that stage next time and blow everyone away..To show that she can win...he wanted from her to get mad and prove herself to everyone...when someone sais to me that I can't do something I'll do it no matter what and show him that I CAN :))))) I'll try better and harder ;)) I think that that was his idea..that looks really cruel :P

[HunnyLamb26]

I dont think there was ANYBODY better than her in that top 12!! Thats why she's a big celeb now and all the others, we just never heard of again!

[xxY2JLEDGENDKILLERxx]

@HunnyLamb26 why was she a wildcard and in the bottom 3 four times then... no one cared about her back then.

[peter21d]

Simon is sooooooooooooo wrong!!

[forceripe]

well fantasia deserve it still but jennifer no one can touch her now cause her vocal is crazy she have grown love both a them none is better than none

[wenagourgel]

a great voice

[uprayup]

But, SHE MADE IT! How do you feel now Simon?

[nottys99]

This wasnt her best  moment on idol

[YourMyBoyBlue]

Simon may tell it like it is to the shitty people. But there are times where he puts down amazing performers like Jennifer Hudson..and I'm like "wtf are you thinking dude?" and sometimes he praises untalented rejects. I just don't get it.

Love you Jennifer.

[unFayemous]

I don't at all agree with simon on the part that there are better singers.. but he does have a point in some weird twisted ways, because I saw jennifer hudson for the first time in dreamgirls, singing "and I am telling you" and it was absolutely amazing, and if you look back on this performance, it feels like she only gave 80%..

[BlaqueBelleza]

ok ok...i see...she cant sing all types of songs.. r&b and gospel she rocks!

[deesks1]

This makes Simon appear like he doesnt knw how to spot talent. And makes one question his ability as a judge.

[jrdennis95]

no offence to simo... infact. Giving offense, can he sing?! Jennifer hudson is amazing, i bet he feels like a llama now he sees her.

[Raoulirshan]

is Simon crazy?!

[BIGBOY9578]

i bet simon feels like such an ass now

[waterfire28]

simon! look how well she is now....

[landoblu]

amen @ alowaaaaa

[joetj]

Wow Simon was a real British ass on this episode! Does anyone know where I can find the next episode after this one so I can see what he says then?

[Trinfin]

way better than Fantasia, much easier on the eyes & ears!!!!

[JazzyDivaProductions]

Alot better performers in the competition? Hmm I don't recall any other contestants in the season getting in a major motion picture.

Fantasia Who??LOL

[Ninny3737]

The incredible career that she made is just one of quite a few examples, that you don't need to win that show to be successful in the end.

Fantastic singer, she deserves all the prizes she won afterwards.

[Ninny3737]

2.) And besides, I am so glad that in the end of the day Simon is standing there like a fool who never heard anything about music. Lol, he usually knows about his job, but here he was completely wrong and being this ignorant to Jennifer it serves him SO right!

[xxxroxybabyxxx]

what's the name of this song? thanks :o)

[overdale32]

"No one else on earth" by Winnona Judd

[egocrusher]

Simon's got his head up his culo. However i usually agree with his brit gay ass and he makes me laugh but when it comes to real soul and not commercial shit, he's clueless. He's way to white for America.

[BigBlueBeast]

Even Simon isn't perfect. Jennifer Hudson is better than Fantasia. Just because she waited until she was an adult to have a baby. She can run circles around Fantasia!

[ConserveCompassion]

Jennifer proved that Simon was WAY off. Put your tail between your legs, Simon. Enjoy your OSCAR and Grammies, Jennifer.

P.S. Simon, how many OSCARS have you won? None??? Ah...

[alowaaaaa]

Oh please. He judged her on her performances, she improved a lot by then ...

Tsss

He gets it wrong once people scream, he still got it right more than most of the time. Instead of criticizing try doing his job.

[Jamesscalise]

@ConserveCompassion Considering he doesn't act, that point is kind of invalid.

[thinhnguyenviet]

@ConserveCompassion she was out not because of Simon, it audience vote round. If this season have the Save right, Jennifer would have never been lost idol. But see now, she is bigger than an idol.

[SetsailMusic]

@ConserveCompassion you cant deny that Jennifer improved alot after idol though. she is a better vocalist now than she was then. but she was still amazing then.

[PhantomofDB]

@ConserveCompassion and all the other idiots slamming simon

1. She made her break on Idol. Without his show, she'd be nowhere.

2. He's not the only one that said negative things, and even Randy agreed there were some better on the show.

3. Her runs at the end were horribly off pitch, she deserved criticism

4. America agreed. She got 7th place.

Now, I think she's improved tremendously since she was on Idol.She's a pretty grerat singer, now. She was just "very good" then.

[sixfobrutha11]

@PhantomofDB I agree. Those runs at the end were awful!!!

[monkeysandmice]

i didnt even know she went on this :L

who on earth beat her?!

[charmedc3]

fantasia lol

[XMultiSexGoddess]

She should have won..!!

Simon needs to feck off nd stop spitting words from the dictionary he doesn't know the meaning of.,

[YAHOO872]

i bet they feel really stupid every time they c her on the red carpet

[Analisa416]

LOL I have often thought the same thing!

[ToughBoy32]

simon is a jackass

[hellooben]

lol simon got pwnd.

[Tyger4lyfe96]

The name of the song is, "No one else on earth" by Wynonna Judd. I saw Jennifer in concert in NY this year and she is amazing. She didn't win Idol because GOD had something bigger in store for her!!! Love you Jennifer and always keep GOD first!!!

[kokolet1]

@Tyger4lyfe96 THATS IT ...IT WASNT HER TIME

[rockdiva888]

@kokolet1 ..Jennifer had not defined "herself" as an artist at that point in time. She has an amazing voice and it seemed like she held back because that voice is soooo big. I can see why she didn't make it. Had she established that early on..she may have won.

[brownsugarbaby44]

@Tyger4lyfe96 How wrong can one man be? He needs to give up judging and find a job cause he is out of his league?

[dant697]

no offence to simon but he dident like her cuz he thought she was fat

i mean he loved leona she was skinny

alex burke skinny

he is superficsal

and i dislike him

i love jenn though and she dident need there lousy 15 mins of fame

[tuesdayyyCSS1337]

@dant697 Leone was a better singer, is a better singer, and will always be a better singer. fact.

[omaragatha]

@tuesdayyyCSS1337 no she is not.... as simple as that!!!

[logicalintuition]

so wrong

[daeshawnna23]

w/e simon she should of won the who thing

[SoKalVal]

LUV U !!! FROM KOREA

[yumeena]

I totally agree with Simon. That performance wasn't American Idol-worthy.

And - all you Simon-haters: "America voted her off - not the judges" People keep forgetting that.

[MultiSarah13]

vad dålig!!!

[davidfds]

did she win???

[foxylilmimi]

no but she made it without them she debuted in the hit movie dream girls, sung at the superbowl, and has a cd that sold great. She sang at michael jackson's memorial. she's pregnant now but has stayed out of the public eye some since her family's murder.

[amrita277]

can anyone telme wats the song of jennifer where jennifer wil be along wid some horse . it sounds awesome but. can anyone tel me tht im not finding it anywhere.nd i forgot tht song i have heard it only a bit of tht song

[jobucats]

I would answer your question if I could understand/decipher your grammar and spelling.

[amrita277]

i know that my english is not too good. but it was not that bad ... i was asking about a song in which jennifer holds some horse and she sings. i dunno abt the song but it sounds awesome.

[likedbymany]

thats ciara...t think and its "called and i" =]

[amrita277]

is that song there in youtube? sorry i dint get that ... could u plz write it clearly? if u find the song plz post the url plzplzplz . bye :)

[myloveisreal]

What's the name of the song, it's awesome!

[Lilmama12298]

the judges are so stupid to send jennifer home she should have one what were those judges thinking.

[akajreed1]

well look at where she is now

they should feel stupid

[brandykody11]

ass jackson , paula bowel and simon why man? ..they were soooooooo wrong... this girl rocks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[oneoriginalthought]

Well you certainly showed him, Jennifer!

[jaderrw]

Simon was a total bitch with her. He said later he ate a huge piece of humble pie. He should eat regularly.

[jamesbug2002]

hihihihihihi...do you think he'll bloat if he regularly eat's humble pie??

[lilchuy01]

hahaha simon now look at her....oscar and grammy and more to come and you got.....????

[CANVEY80sNIGHT]

simon already looks like he been punched in the face. fukkin idiot it is.

[petuniamighty]

this was a great momment for her tolook back on ,he messed up soo big time i dont think he can ever live this one down go jen!!!

[cuculeana26]

VERRY POSITIVE GIRL!!!!

[doooitdoit]

Simon is stupid. I just want to punch him in the face.

[marikitna]

lol... errr. an Oscar, a golden globe AND a Grammy.... yeh... there are better singers than her out of the 11 idol contestants.... HAHAHAHAHA

[watchmeyule1983]

it was a stupid song for her to pick ...cause she has range that singers can only dream about

[cpbound]

3.38 so funny

[xxprincesssuziexx]

luv her!!!

[dietzchris]

thats my new girlfriend. for realz.

[cherita18]

Jennifer moment. 3:39. HaHa

[bluscorpion]

Whoever wrote that song should be shot. It suuuuucked. I hate when bad songs happen to good people.

[keflar5]

are there acctually fucking idiots who believe these lying bastards when they act as if the singers pick the songs, give me fucking break

[chyvonneza]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAH!!!!!!! he cooked himself with this one, simple simon!! She showed him huh !

[SHORTISPRINCESS]

actually he didn't he told her the truth for this song. She didn't sound top notch on this one. When she came back out he apologized to her and said she's great and amazing

[mizzalahna]

simon is a pussy

[nottys99]

I love jennifer .....but this was probly her worst performance ever.....

[extremehaj]

she is amazing 10/10, but this is the wrong song for her. the amercian ppl are very hard to please hehe. she is great. she should have done a mariah carey song. :>

[andrea9shan]

um who won this idol?

<3 lovee jennifer :]

[crownrecords15]

have you been under a rock!!! fantasia barrino DUH!!!

[bcrocker33]

Simon took that back after anyway, i think the next week, because Jennifer became one of the three diva's in the end, along with Latoya and Fantasia. people love to remind him of it after the Oscar, etc. but he took it back on Idol too.

[randomgen1161a]

Jennifer Hudson is too overrated for me. I don't find her voice incredible. She is from Chicago. Anyone from Chicago with a little bit of talent and a lot of connections is usually marketed by some rich connection and/or media to get to the top.

[astiff]

I'd love to see or hear you perform half as good as her. You really shouldn't speak negatively of people that you can't hold a candle to. God be with you. Judge ye not, least ye be judged.

[princessp4]

are u serious??? Jennifer is just naturally talented yo and she got famous because of idol no connections there!!!

[icewaterdragon01]

When JHud came out in Dream Girls I bet you Simon felt like an idiot after looking back at what he said.

[DAlmond123]

Yep, he did. Look up a video of Jen on Oprah that says "Simon Cowell Apologizes to Jennifer Hudson" and you will see it. Even he had to give credit to where it was due.

[NippyFan4ever]

The song itself was a horrible song. I do like a lot of country music but that was a horrible song. She should have done a Reba song like The Night The Lights Went Out In GA, that would have been a great fit.

[ibm0615]

oh..i forgot about this performance on country night, not her best but Simon? "out of her depth?" GTFO! LOL

She was at the top of that pack

[blkcountrywesterngal]

GREAT!

[Tiny1bme]

It was not one of her greatest performances, but that song is just ugly anyway. She should have chose a better song.

Anyway, that said...uou tell em Randy!

Out of the 12 that year she's they only one still standing. So take that rewind it back, cause Jenny's got the voice that makes the others go flat.

[lbnbj]

Jennifer Hudson is a wonderful singer

[JSteele917]

Am i alone in saying Jennifer Hudson voice isnt as great as they making it out to be. i did not like the way she did And I'm telling you I think Lakisha Jones did it much much better

[maddaa11]

this is a bad song to sing hhaha

her voice doesnt sound great with this song at all

[rura87]

did she come in at 5th place wen she got kicked off

[iluvitdou]

i love simon

[joejonashottieluv]

SHE WAS GREAT AS EFFIE!

[kiouma]

I'm sorry but she doesn't sing that well. She is nice though, but a great singer is something she is not.

[mybchique]

wow SHut up... she showed simon and u .... by becoming the amazing person she is today... i love her and im glad she didn't win idol cus tht wulda messed her whole career up...

btw she won a grammy for her CD... i hope simon feels bad

[iluvitdou]

true

[Mizzbabyblue12]

"she doesn't sing that well" and is that why she has a grammy? correct me if i am wrong. What do you consider "well singing?" her singing is amazing, i love both of her songs "spotlight" and "if this isn't love"

[scsusbest414]

Listen to her Invisible and Stand Up......OMG.....I lover her whole CD

[niffy20]

OH.........I love her CD you wouldn't believe how  many times I listened to her CD. She is so talented......its amazing

[welcom2thefreakshow]

she is a amazing singer

[Chelybobo]

I bet Simon takes that back NOW.

[inoitahere]

At this stage it was up to viewers' votes so why did they not keep her in. Its all about having a whole package. she didnt look the part but now with stylists' help she looks a star!! Simon was damn right, bad song

[SandraBeatlesFan1963]

i beg to differ simon, you must be kicking your ass now

[dadorothy]

jennifer prooved simon wrong! lol

[Sanjaya7]

mnaybe it was the song
