what is the problem....can Jennifer Hudson enjoy her blessings of success without all the negativity...let's give the woman a break.  She is a celebrity Now!! Let her enjoy her time and let's lift her up and be happy for Jennifer.  She is not perfect and she's not trying to be, let her get use to her new status.  She's just trying to be down to earth with her comments just like us, and a lot of people are not picking up on this.  No one absolutely no one is perfect.  If she says American Idol was a "Stepping Stone" to her success, so be it.  Why tear down every word out of her mouth, you can tell she's not trying to be rude to anyone.  When you're stepping on a stone, you are moving, usually forward....Simon Cowell is not from her state, so maybe he doesn't understand her statement...but...WE KNOW WHAT SHE MEANS.....and for those who want to pretend they don't...."American Idol gave her the opportunity to move forward and be recognized by other's in that industry."  Now if I've made a tying error please don't critize....it was not what I meant to do....PROUD TO BE A FAN OF JENNIFER HUDSON....AND HAPPY TO SAY...GLAD YOU MADE IT, ENJOY THE BLESSINGS GIVEN TO YOU AND KEEP KEEPING IT REALLLLLL. THIS IS ALL NEW for you and a lot of us know it.

Here is a thought writers.....when you think of NEGATIVE THINGS, why not write about all those actresses driving under the influence over and over and getting away with it.  Now here's a subject to talk about?  Something that really affects other lives; this is what's important in that industry because
they hae FANS and they are screwing up in a big way...and their fans still love them.  Alcohol, drugs and driving can be a fatal combination.   Why not jump all over that story, these are young actresses also.
