And speaking of the BET Awards, there is much buzz today over the unbelievable duet of "And I'm Tellin' You, I'm Not Going" by Oscar winner Jennifer Hudson and Tony winner Jennifer Holliday who originated the role of Effie on Broadway 25 years ago. Holliday had complained loudly that she felt snubbed by those involved in the making of the "Dreamgirls" movie ih which Hudson played Effie. But the two divas were aq dynamic duo and gave each other plenty of room to soar. Hudson introduced Holliday as "my Dreamgirl, a true Dreamgirl." I came away feeling that the performances were so different that each has carved out their own piece of history. We don't have to engage in a silly "who is better game." They are both...SENSATIONAL!
It was a great night for Hudson who also picked up awards for best movie actress and best newcomer.
