Jennifer Hudson: "Don't believe everything you read..."
I read about some comments "Dreamgirls" star Jennifer Hudson allegedly to a magazine calling homosexuality a sin a few days ago. First Csrol Channing and now Jennifer Hudson? Noooooooo! But I held off on posting about it because everything else Hudson has had to say about gays has been so positve. So i wondered, did she misspeak? Does she love gay people even though she thinks they are sinners? Well, since I think she is so fabulous, I'm just going to print what she write on her MySpace Website where she tries to explain away this growing controversy:
"It should be a happy day because I heard that the National Board Of Review picked me as one of the BreakThru Actresses Of The Year... but it turned into a sad day and I can't understand why or how this happened. When you are up, people try to tear you down. Some paper is saying that I have a problem with gay people. It's just mean and wrong. My feelings are so hurt and I can't sleep. Anybody that knows me, knows that just ain't true. It makes me so mad that people can twist your words and say anything they want. And there's nothing I can do about it, except to say, please don't believe everything you read."
So there it is. I think her heart is in the tight place and I remain a fan. Congrats on the National Board of Review kudo - it will be the first of many, many awards in the coming months....and GET SOME SLEEP!

at premieres for first crack at the hors d'oeurves, and Greg's never
seen a red carpet he didn't want to stroll down.
