Jennifer Hudson stole the show in Dreamgirls. If you haven't seen the flick, it's a must-see, primarily because of Hudson's outstanding performance. We loved Chicago, but we thought Dreamgirls was even better. Hudson recently performed to a sold-out crowd in NYC's Hammerstein Ballroom. Turns out Jaime Foxx, who also stars in the flick, was very supportive of Hudson during filming. Hudson told reporters:
"Jamie would call me every Sunday during the summer. It would never fail, and the first time he called I was like, "Oh, my God. Jamie Foxx just called me!" But he was so supportive, so sweet so helpful ... during filming. And he came to me at the end of filming and he pulled me to the side and he was like, "I didn't want to distract you while you were working, but now that we're at the end, I can say what I want to say." And he was like, "You know what? We really think you did something special. I feel like you're about ready to go down the same road that I just experienced (winning an Oscar for her performance in Ray), and if I can do anything to mentor you and help you out, I'd be happy to."
