Brandy played Cinderella in Whitney's movie..... she was one of Whitney's daughters so its only right.

Jennifer sang that song with ZERO emotion, just because you have LUNGS doesn't mean you are a great vocalist. Jennifer still has A LOT of work to do to graduate from baptist cruise singer to generation defining vocalist. Whitney was just happy to be honored and showed the respect that she deserved but LETS BE CLEAR....... Jennifer Hudson is NO second coming of Whitney. She is more like Aretha but falls way short of catching the baton.

She won an Academy Award for playing a stereotypical angry fat black woman not because she is some Angela Bassett prodigy. I love Jenny Kate but I'm not here for SMOKE!!

Child...

Yes, Jennifer matched Whitney note-for-note in that video but someone like Brandy should be taking her place because she was in a TV movie with Whitney years ago? Well Jennifer got a standing ovation from her peers AND Whitney Houston herself when she sang a Whitney Houston song. Not to mention the fact that Whitney was the one to give Jennifer her first Grammy. I think there's plenty of poetry in the fact that Jennifer is paying tribute to Whitney.

Sorry if I'm not seeing the logic in your argument. And ZERO EMOTION? You're serious with this? I guess opinions really are like assholes.

Whitney did background vocals on at least 3 Chaka Khan songs...... clearly Chaka & Whitney are the PREEMINENT vocalists of ALL TIME!!!

*bows*

Jennifer is on BET right now singing IWALY and she sounds amazing.

I'm glad you KNOW that it was VERY note for note filled with empty emotion. There is an ART to singing I Will Always Love You, it wasn't just because Whitney had a big voice. That song is THE vocal standard of power ballads. Jennifer this isn't American Idol karaoke. SMDH Yes, pinions are like assholes and diarrhea can clearly clog ears.

I want to see a new face paying tribute to their mentor/friend not Jennifer with her tired ass hollering. If we are gonna pay tribute to someone who I have LONG REVERED then we are going to do it right!!! Jennifer had her moment and now its time for the other girls. Truly simple as that. Brandy can handle a Shoop Shoop in honor of Nippy.


Beyonce better sing an uptempo, otherwise she can have several seats right beside Jennifer as well.

She did really good, she sounds amazing when she doesn't over sing.

!!!!!!!!!

Exactly!! So it takes a great singer to take the song and make it their own. See Kim Burrell who performed right before Jennifer and gave you EVERYTHING you need in a tribute to her sister.


You kids will NEVER get it. SMH

Your argument is so tired. You claim she only hollers, yet you stayed in her album thread last year.

Jennifer WILL tribute her idol. Deal with it!

Chaka

Excuse me, who the **** do you think you're talking to? I KNOW you're not disrespecting me and telling me to STFU. You can sit your bitch ass down, troll, because no one was talking to you in the first place.

Does anyone else have anything of substance to add? No? Good. I'm ready to sit back and watch Jennifer blow the roof off the place when she tributes the Queen.

OMG... I hope it's true.

Chaka isn't going to the Grammys she is too distraught.
