Jennifer Hudson Puts Family Massacre Behind Her To Perform For Barack Obama

The singer gets back to work..

Wednesday 31st Dec 2008

Jennifer Hudson is reportedly warming up her vocal chords in preparation to perform for President-elect Barack Obama.

The all round performer - whose mother Darnell Donnerson, nephew Julian King and brother Jason Hudson were brutally murdered in October - is said to have been offered the opportunity to sing at Obama's inauguration.

"Organizers want Jennifer to sing The Star-Spangled Banner at the Inauguration on Jan. 20," a source tells Page Six.

"They are talking to Jennifer about it. It would be the first time she performed since the murders. She is from Chicago and a huge Obama supporter."

Jennifer sang the national anthem at the Democratic National Convention in Denver in August, two months before the murders took place.

  • If Jennifer Hudson is ready to return to public life, it would be wonderful if her first performance would be during President Obama's inauguration. She would do this event proud!
