  • This always makes me cry! She's been through soo much and too achieve all of her dreams is a dream come true. I love you always and forever Jennifer because you TRULY inspire me to live. <3

  • I ALWAYS cry when I see this performance. Always. The fact that this happened in such a difficult stage of her life, ugh...she was so brave!

  • Jennifer Hudson and Adele should do a duet! That would be one amazing song.

  • She has an awesome start of a wonderful career and future, and it doesn't include all that yelling that Beyonce does. I hope she is around in 30 years. All the best!!!

  • wow God bless Jennifer because she is a very good example and a role model. this proves that life can just turn out to be a horrible surprise sometimes but you have to be strong and move on.

  • Thump up if you can't help crying throughout this soulful, massive performance!

  • Thick or slim you are gorgeous Jen. I will always love you because you balance strength, grace and soul in a way no one else has in the public eye, especially from what you have gone through.You could make the Alphabet song sound like a heavenly hymn. You will live forever through your music baby.

  • JUST WOOOOW!!!

    

  • best live vocalist today. she is amazing. she respects all those who influenced her. just needs some great songs. come on clive! a duet with whitney? not sure. or Gaga? love that soul and passion and voice. no one else today has that.

  • jenny is my girl,when chi-town,could not vote her in that-night ,I called my friends before 12pm,and each called 100 times. we tried!!! the chi-news said their power was off,during that time.

  • if anyone never had a family member killed by someone else,then you are very blessed. I did- my brother 21 years ago,at 34 years old. For years I was a wounded aminal. Jennifer is doing better than I expected. my dearest friend in the whole-wide- world and my brother was kill by someone else's hand.6 months apart & 21,years later I canot,bring myself to say that cold word...M.....,it still hurts sooooooooo much. My prayer will always be with the hudson family!!!

  • Omg that made my eyes water...

  • It took so much courage for her just weeks after her mom, brother and nephew were murdered to get out of that stage, knowing the world was watching. But we were always with you Jennifer... praying for you and loving you.

  • Wow... I almost Cried... So moving.

  • Her look into the camera at the end of the song makes me lose it everytime.......

  • Why is kesha and Justin Beiber more famous than her. We need more people who can actually sing. thumbs up if u agree

  • @joia111094 Bieber is new he is also a young kid......that is the majority of his audience. Let's see where he is when he's..........in his 40's. Probably will be a has been. Lol

  • @NippysGuard Lol I agree. I dont understand how he got so popular. i've seen many youtube videos of talented artists and I dont see why he's the only one that's been discovered and I dont understand what is so special about him. I dont think he's horrible but he definitely doesnt deserve this much attention. I mean, he has sung with mariah carey and boys to men and many other artists that I dont think he is worthy of.

  • @NippysGuard He'll be hanging out with KC n The Sunshine Band lol

  • @dimples40160 lol SMH

  • She is an incredible singer

  • Powerful!!!

  • I feel like crying every time I see this video

  • I'm a grown man and I dont cry...until I see this. As a fellow Chicago native, I'm so proud of Jennifer. What a performance..

  • Woman....thy name is Jennifer.

  • Wow, that is all I can say. Wow.

  • brings me to tears every time!

  • What kind of idiot murders a child and somebody's mom?

  • incredible , great performance , fenomenal !!!

  • ABSOLUTELY AMAZING, STILL BRINGS ME TO TEARS JUST BEAUTIFUL

  • This performance ALWAYS brings me tears. Extraordinary talent... after everything she went through in her personal life. And she was STILL able to sing in front of a crowd like this. Her strength is amazing. You're beautiful Jennifer and I love your voice. One of the only women in the music world of R&B who doesn't need to use her body to show off talent. This is real.

  • it tears me up everytime i watch this i just cant help it my heart cries for Jen & the pain she is feeling my heart goes out to u Jen, keep on being strong girl God gave u this talent for a reason, u r touching hearts all over the world,

  • Cyoung that's an opinion not a fact. That @ the end of the day does'nt mean much.. She's awesome, period....

  • That night, Jennifer Hudson showed the world a level of inner strength that would bring a tear to the hardest of hearts. When she hit that note and pointed up, she sent a note up so strong her family in heaven heard it. Chicago loves you J-Hud. 

  • I hate how people try to act like Jennifer now is the same Jennifer we saw on American Idol...she wasnt as good as she is now, then...and to add, she might possibly be one of the Top 5 most successful contestants, winner or not...so shut up and be glad she even got picked in the first place

  • iv've heard about jennifer's performance but actually never gotten the chance to view it. um, this girl definately has strength and i mean she pulled it together and did such a wonder, touching performance. i just love her!

  • Absolutely brilliant performance! I am crying while watching this video. I started to love Jennifer Hudson when she first came out in American idol. Mariah Carey and Jennifer Hudson are the best diva in the world for me. They always make me cry while listening to some sad songs they have. Beyonce also does! Great divas!

  • i cried! she is a brave brave brave woman i wasnt a fan if her's i'm still not but she is a great lady who deserves the best

  • AMEN J HUDSON IS SIMPLY THE BEST LOVE HER

  • I cried then ...I cried later and I'm trying now....my God this girl has the spirit of Christ inside of her to have held it together and sing this song so beautifully...Now she's blessed with her own loving son

    Jennifer I'm proud that you know and love the Lord...

  • OMG..she is such a powerful person,,&& out of all the tragic things that happen to her,she is still movin on and living her life and i thank god for givin her the strength to do so,,,so jennifer keep doing your thang and god bless

  • I was so moved by this performance, and by the heartfelt standing ovation that she received.

  • Simply the Best

  • everytime this gives me chills and i cry a little shes so amazing

  • Absolutely Excellent!!!

  • She knows exactly where to draw her strength from, God has a plan for her, and she is living in it and through it. She is definately a strong woman to have endured so much pain and sorrow.

  • HONEY! SHE OPENED UP THE HEAVENS @ 2:42!!! MY GOD!!! Sing girl... bless you forever!!! Bravo! Bellissimo!!!! Ad infinitum!!!!

  • They had too take so much courage after all of her family died.

  • I got chills through this whole performance.Best singer of this generation.

  • You wanna see a STRONG ASS WOMAN, this is IT.

  • oh wow this was so heartbreaking i have no idea how she could even perform i dont know if i could even live another day if that happened to me. I'm glad to see that she's doing okay.. this girl has a lot of strength and passion i love her for that

  • yes she has mighty strength I can relate to her I lost my father Ans Previous to her loosing her family her mother and nephew I lost my father It is an emptiness no one can replace and when I heard this song It become a song of hope that what ever comes down I can still pull through

  • The greatest talent to come out of any talent show: Jennifer Hudson!

    Great singer.

    Top Broadway performer.

    Oscar winner.

    Crawl away into a corner and rot, Simon Cowell! Your statements about Jennifer showed how little you know about quality talent.

    Cowell's torture ain't over yet: Jennifer may already have an Oscar for supporting actress, but now she has a role that could get her an Oscar for leading actress.

    Be a man, Cowell: give Jennifer a spot on Idol...

  • @une12folie Well maybe we should thank Cowell for his decision, because Jennifer Hudson turned out fine, because he was blind. Who knows, maybe she wouldn't be where she is today if Cowell behaved differently ;-)

  • i do think simon knows wat he doin

    and it wasnt even him that got her kicked off it was the american public

  • @realpassion95 nope , people give Simon WAY tooo much credit lol.. He has absolutely NOTHING to do with her success. She's who she is today because of her dedication and hard work..

  • i nooo im not saying he did i love j hud she is incredible and she did get their herself but sut him some slack thats all

  • @realpassion95 nobody is perfect, not even simon

    of course the public voted in the end, but singers, who are always or at least most of the time criticised have a harder way to go than people who are always the "good" ones.

  • @une12folie ...she might not want a spot on Idol...I wouldnt balme her if she never went back on the show.

  • dude he apologized

  • who apologized?

  • simon cowell

  • @une12folie ........the public voted her off, not Simon. Simon's appraisal can only carry so much weight....in the end, it's the viewers who decide.

  • @une12folie

    She and Leona Lewis are going to sing a duet for Sex and the City 2! Two great reality show talents.

  • Beatiful lady beatiful voice and person!!!

  • I don't know how she found the strength to do this,..but,it's one THE most incredible,brave,emotional,hon­est and poweful perfomances I've ever seen. Thankyou for uploading this!! God Bless you Jennifer Hudson.

  • bless her!!!! gorgeous and amazing!!!!

  • She is so gifted........I love this

  • i love her....this send chills in my body..

  • One of the most touching performances live.

  • made me tear up!

  • I've never seen Jennifer more beautiful than she is here.

    Why was she emotional though? Whose this song for?

  • Uhmmm some of her family members were murdered earlier that year/...remember?

  • Her Mother, brother and newphew were murdered not long before this thats why she was emotional. :-(

  • r u serious? u have 2 b playin!!

    =] xx

  • amen well said may god continue to bless and keep her.

  • no the super bowl was her first appearance after the tragedy...

  • true

  • this was the first time in a long time after her family tragedy that she sang in public, and such a moving song!!!

    You go girl!!!

  • why do people feel the need to compare beyonce & Jennifer. They arent even at war with each other. Gosh get over it. It is possible to get along these days you know, Please dont tatter their images with this nonsense. its ridiculous.If you wanna fight, start it elsewhere.

  • killed by her sister's boyfriend last year...

  • Stop being dumb. You know what happened to them.

  • I just knew it 5 days ago -.-

  • how much sorrow, how much sorrow in her voice, into her mind, into her heart  while she was singing...I think she was thinking to her mother, brother, nephew, not more here on this world...I think about my dad not more with me, and it's so sad, so sad, so sad every day of my life.

  • iluv her oso mush az if she were my sister... dis gurl got 2 much talent..

  • She is soooo soooo beautiful!! Soulful and talented. God bless her!

  • Wow enough said, beautiful.

  • She is spectacular. I'll admit it here. When I need a boost while doing cardio I turn this song on and the emotion, well, pulls me through for lack of a better term. What a class act and a true inspiration.

  • what makes this performance so good is that she sung it from her heart. That is what real singing is about. She emoted the song from her soul.

  • she's amazing and so strong i could imagine how hard it must be for her

  • wow i haven't cried in 2 yrs, well...i just did, shes amazing

  • Poor girl...:-(

  • Sorry! :S I was saying it because I feel sorry for her because of what happened to her family...she's a great singer. Gee I can't even say something like that anymore...:S

  • lmao!!! u cant be serious.but hey thas your opinion.

  • no she totally underrated...now if you want to know someone who is overrated look up "beyonce"..of course, she wouldn't be at her best hear that song is emotional for her after a few months from losing her mom, brother, and nephew and its her way of saying how God pulled her through those hard times..

  • einfach genial

  • she strong man . god as my witness

  • Still makes me cry...

  • Finally....a real superstar artist for this generation. What a talent.

  • I admire her strength..i think everyone should...

  • the strength she showed to still sing through the midst of her pain; that is no one but God that pulled her through..

  • I cry with her because i am imagining getting a phone call (God forbid) that my mom, lil nephew and brother have been shot dead in our home and worse of all, my lil nephew found in a trunk of a car. People just put yourself in Jens shoes for just one second.U can definately feel her pain.Cant believe what a strong soul she has to have pull through so quick. I'd probably be mad at my sister thinking why she had to attract such a evil guy, but you can see Jen has forgiven every1.

  • She will be posted on the hall of fame one day.

  • she is just an all around AMAZING singer
