Attention, Barack Obama!
Jennifer Hudson would love to hear from you. The Oscar-winning actress and singer from Chicago (yes, she still lives there) says she's ready to do what she can to get her senator elected president.
"I sang for Obama after I did Idol," Hudson says. "I'm so proud and excited for him. I haven't gotten a call from them yet, but he does have my support."
I was on the phone with Hudson, 26, the day after she shot her first music video for "Spotlight," her just-released single from her upcoming debut album. She's a bit sleepy because the shoot lasted nearly 24 hours.
"I guess God gives me the strength," Hudson said of her almost nonstop schedule since becoming the breakout star of Dreamgirls two years ago. "In this field you just sleep when you can."
