Why Does Everyone Hate on Jennifer Hudson?

  • She was on idol years ago.

    She is the face of WW...

    Honestly, she is talented, and she has lost weight and she looks great. She looks healthy.

    Someone will always have something to say about a celebrity, in positive or negative light.

    No I was being serious. Some of us really have better things to worry about. You know, like a huge gang fight going on around my city and hearing gun shots all around like this is downtown Beirut back in the days. Probably gonna hear about a bomb blast or 2 in news tomorrow

    Some of us REALLY don't care.

    Good for her for losing the weight though. Hopefully she inspires some fans of her

    The "Some of us REALLY don't care" made me think someone was, not mad, but had bad thoughts about me wondering about J. Hud. Lol

    Shay I think that quote was more directed towards me on asking if it was a serious question that they didn't know who they were.

    I don't think there is anything wrong with others not knowing who she is, I was just surprised that people didn't since her face is everywhere. I also didn't mean to sound offensive with my question.

    I personally enjoy Jhud, and actually her story.

    ANNDDD to the comment of your own cities violence.

    JHud has also experienced this, in 2008 her mother, brother, and nephew were all murdered in an act of violence in 2008.

    As a general rule. people hating on other people comes from their own insecurities. Applies to Jennifer hudson hating as well.

    Ohhhh ok. Lol now I'm back on track. And yes, she did have a lot of violence in her family. Tragic.

    I was wondering this exact same thing! So obviously I'm not "hating on" her.

    Didn't say that you had to care, and didn't say that I did. I just happen to know her story, and her face is everywhere, I was just surprised that many wasn't aware of who she was.
    I am actually surprised too. Her face is indeed everywhere. These people MUST be blind.

    Everywhere?

    Really?

    I live in the UK and I do not watch a lot of mainstream media, sorry, but I am no blind person, just have other interests I guess...I have no idea who she is even after looking at the pic someone posted...I bet I must be a dumbass now for not knowing, eh?!

    Not a dumb *kitten* but you sure are catching feelings over a trivial matter. Next time when making blanket statements, I will be sure to specify the region I am talking about.

    Happy now?

    I remember her from American Idol. I never watched Dream Girls, but I was surprised at her meager role in the Three Stooges movies.

    Other than that.... *shrug*

    Well, it does help if you live in the middle of BFT and don't watch TV, FitnessSocial. She's very pretty, Tiggerrick, but I HAD never seen her.

    Catching feelings? What the heck does that mean? Happy? Yeah I was not unhappy before...

    Um...*shrug*

    Taunto: I'm really sorry about what's going on in your city - praying for peace.

    Jennifer Hudson is big in the U.S., apparently not so much in other countries. She's won an Oscar and grammys so not a talentless hack, and personally I adore her voice. I think she lost weight naturally because she wasn't large enough before for surgery. People hate because they are jealous and feel bad about themselves.

    Ooooooooooh! Thanks!

    Nah, not getting upset about anything, just wondered why you thought everyone was blind just as the OP thinks EVERYONE is hating on someone I have never even heard of...is all...

    I'm from the US and I didn't know who she was. Thanks for making my day by being so understanding that not everyone watches American Idol. Didn't realize that I was blind if I didn't know who every celebrity is that gets plastered here and there on billboards, commercials, etc was. Woohoo.

    Anywho...so...she lost a lot of weight. That's great :) Especially because she put the work in. Sorry about her fam, though, that sucks.

    Is "hate on" the same as "hate?" Sorry, American isn't my first language. I don't know who she is; did she do something bad?

    For the same reason everyone hates on anyone else wanting to improve on themselves. Jealousy?

    I mean, I don't get it. It's usually either

    'Omg, she's so fat! omg unattractive! she should lose weight'

    And then when she loses weight, it's

    "omg, she sold out! she lost weight just because everyone else told her to! omg, so shallow/vain"

    I think people just need to learn when to shut up.

    Well, if the Enquirer is to be believed, this might have something to do with it -

    "The first thing Jennifer Hudson did when she ran into Adele backstage at the Grammys was congratulate her on her impressive haul. The second thing she did was offer weight-loss tips, which annoyed Adele. Hudson, a Weight Watchers spokesperson, pulled Adele aside at the Grammys and offered to be her fat-fighting mentor!

    A source told the Enquirer, “Jennifer congratulated Adele on her six trophies but then added, ‘I used to be heavy just like you and gosh, Weight Watchers saved my life! I can hook you up.’”

    Although Adele was outwardly gracious, friends say she was seething on the inside. She huffed about Jennifer, “The nerve of that woman!” Adele has made it known she’s happy just the way she is – at 165 pounds – and doesn’t intend to diet."

    Yes yes, she lost all that weight through a program that tells you there are 0 calorie foods out there & you can eat as much of them as you want...... all while keeping her boobs the same size as they were when she was fat.



    Don't hate on her at all, I don't know her nor want to..... but I call bull**** when I see it.


    OH & BTW..... Jennifer does not look all that stunning. Photoshop does wonders. She looks old, and more skinny fat than anything.

    Who in the heck is Jennifer Hudson?

    ditto! LOL

    Google is your friend, or did you guys just post because don't know anything about this thread but wanted to get in on it anyway?

    Sometimes it seems they do that because they wanna increase their "posts" count. Lol

    I just wanted to offer yet another voice toward saying not EVERYONE even knows who Jennifer Hudson is, let alone is hating on her. Even after the pictures and stories, this is the first I've heard of her. I am not hip with celebrity lives and listen to the radio infrequently.

    She didn't do anything "bad;" people are basically jealous because she lost a bunch of weight instead of being "true to herself" as they think.

    I think British people are probably less likely to have heard of her? I know who she is, but I'm not aware of anyone criticising her. Whenever I've seen an article about her, it's been positive about how good she looks and how much weight she's lost. I'm English though.

    I wasn't saying that if you don't know her you're not hip, or that you have to "know" the same famous people I "know" or anything of the sort. I'm not talking bad about anyone that doesn't watch TV or know specific movies she's played in or if they've never watched an episode of American Idol or ANYTHING of the sort. If you don't "know" her then there's no reason to "hate" her for her achievement. I understand that. All I'm saying is....

    *deep breath*

    Never mind. I'm not "mad" at anyone or talking noise for having their opinion, or lack thereof, of this subject. I was just youtubing and one of her songs poped up as a suggested vid. The subject came to me from that. This is really an old topic that I thought I'd rehash because I love her and her work.
