Two-time GRAMMY-winning recording artist, Academy Award-winning actress, and best-selling author, Jennifer Hudson blows us away with this performance of the title track from her new film, “Respect,” in which she portrays the legendary Aretha Franklin. The film, and the original motion picture soundtrack, are out now! JHud will also be bringing live music back to the world famous Apollo Theatre on August 19th for their first show back! All proceeds will also go to the Fearless Fund, a venture capital fund built by women of color for women of color. #Colbert #RESPECT #JenniferHudson
Right now in heaven, a fat man is asking for four fried chickens and a coke.
ReplyWow, they got real musicians on here for a change(other than JB’s group, of course).
ReplyJennifer really preserves Aretha’s legacy. Tonight’s outfits were spectacular too.
ReplyGive this woman her propers and let’s make this film a hit and pray for Hudson to win all the awards
ReplyJennifer is an amazing talent, and absolutely the right talent to play Aretha. I haven’t been to a movie for 18 months, but I’m going to go to this one ASAP. I can’t wait to see her shine again on the big screen.
ReplyShe has a great voice, but it isn’t like Aretha Franklin’s. She is similar. Never duplicated.
ReplyPerfect
ReplyUn-f’ing-believable
ReplyI wish she had played with Jon Batiste and Stay Human, they would have made it even better! Actually, I hope that with every musical guest
Reply1:31 pretty sure I heard the lick there
ReplyGreat job! I still mourn Aretha. This didn’t fix that, but for sure she did the song right.
ReplyI have goosebumps hearing Jennifer singing Respect. Fantastic!
ReplyDAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMN!!!!!
