Jennifer Hudson Sings At Superbowl

project als 2 161007

Jennifer Hudson has returned to performing after having a break due to her private family issues, Jennifer returned by singing the national anthem before Super Bowl 2009. Jennifer Hudson, 27, was clearly nervous as she climbed onto stage to perform the song, but she gave a great performance and did a beautiful job.

The Super Bowl has a massive television audience and it was perfect for Jennifer’s first public appearance since the October slayings in Chicago of her mother, brother and 7-year-old nephew. Jennifer’s estranged brother-in-law has been charged in the killings. 

When the performance was over Jennifer looked very relieved, and when she returned to her dressing room, she anxiously asked pre-game show producer Rickey Minor “How did I do?”.

This was such an important performance, because it’s the first time everyone has seen Jennifer. But she’s in such a great place, with such great spirits and time can heal her wounds. She’s on fire right now and totally grounded.
