But there's a problem. I am a HUGE J. Hud fan, yet I have not bought her album. I haven't even heard the first single "Where you At?" (Maybe that has something to do with the incorrect grammar there but who knows.) I was thinking earlier about why am not already listening to this CD. And then it hit me (like Tina did Ike in the limo it finally hit me).
Think back to Dreamgirls. Jen was BIG. I fell in love with her voice and her as a person when that movie came out. It took everything in me not to yell "sing bitch sing" at the screen, while watching the movie in the theater. Before her debut album, Jennifer Hudson, dropped, J. Hud again graced our screen in Sex and the City the Movie. With all that buzz, I was excited about her first cd.
Fast forward to 2011. What have we seen of Jennifer lately? Yep. You got it. Those damn Weight Watchers commercials where she talks about her new "erms" and sings needlessly throughout every commercial. At this point a lot of people, myself included, were just tired of seeing her. There is nothing about those commercials that make me want to buy her album. I probably will still buy it (I'm waiting to see if Amazon MP3 puts it on sale), but I'm in no rush.
