People reports that Barack Obama has booked Jennifer Hudson to sing the national anthem on Thursday night, before his acceptance speech at Denver’s Mile High Stadium during the Democratic National Convention. Which is good, because I was worried that Hillary Clinton might book her first, to sing "And I Am Telling You I’m Not Going."

Be careful, kids. She’s eating. Keep everything away from her mouth – including the dog.
Timmy, get away from her rear. She may bust a wet one, and your mother will never get that smell out of your clothes.
Hahahahahahahaha! Good one! -Sis
Just to clarify – I was laughing at Gary Susman’s joke, not at Hateful Loser’s disgusting comments.

Joules, you know you want me…

I just want you to enunciate and emote , remember the world will be watching. Shed a tear for maximum effect, think of your Grandmother, your Oscar moment, or when you were cut from Idol. I want this to be a career defining moment for you. If you need further coaching have your people, even your buddy SuperStar James hit me up on Youtube, myspace, yahoo, or aol, It’s all the same – SEXCESS1 (google me)
Loves you much- and ps whats up with the text SMS updates?!?!?
I just heard on the news that J-Hud just ate Chicago. Thank God it wasn’t terrorists.
Brilliant – this just made me laugh/snort diet coke out of my nose.
Shouldn’t the title of this blog be “Jennifer Hudson: Star-spangled BATTER”? I’m sure she’s never passed up a bowl of any kind of batter in her life.
Gary — that was too cute!
I would pay to see a Hillary “And I Am Telling You” on some sort of comic revue or drag show. “And YOU and YOU and YOU–YOU’RE GONNA LOVE ME AAAAAHAHAHWOWOWOWOAHYAAHyeahyeahhmmmm.”
wow…. Hateful Loser, you are just that.
