Jennifer Hudson is on the cover of the latest "Entertainment Weekly" which will hit stores April 6th. On the inside J. Hud and her family & friends talk about her "American Idol" days and what she is doing now. Check some of their responses below.Jennifer’s manager Walt on how they got to where they are: “I would take her to the gay clubs and they would have these talent competitions mainly for drag queens, and I would put Jennifer in them as the only real female. And she would win all the time and take all those drag queens’ money. They were so mad!
Walt on Jennifer’s American Idol tryouts: “I paid for the hotel room and she paid for the car, I think. I’d buy her clothes on my American Express card and then she’d perform in them and I’d return them the next day. I promised her that I wouldn’t stop until the whole world saw her.
On her fans: “It’s one of the most beautiful things, to see that love from fans, but it can be a bit much. I don’t like it when people get all emotional and cry. I don’t want you to cry. It makes me uncomfortable. The other day this lady came up to me and got really close to me, and I thought, ‘What is it that makes people want to…embrace me? And how do I react to it?"
HMM...This should be an interesting issue.
