Rap-Up.com || Jennifer Hudson to Perform with Sandy Hook Chorus at Super Bowl

Beyoncé. Alicia Keys. And now Jennifer Hudson is the latest diva to join the lineup for Sunday’s Super Bowl festivities. The Oscar winner will perform “America the Beautiful” with students from Sandy Hook Elementary School.

Fresh off her performance at President Obama’s Inaugural Ball, J-Hud will sing the patriotic tune with 26 students from Sandy Hook during the Super Bowl XLVII pre-game show on Sunday (via USA Today).

The performance comes a little more than a month after 26 children and faculty members were killed in the tragic mass shooting in Newtown, Connecticut.

“I’m blessed & honored to be singing ‘America The Beautiful’ with Sandy Hook elementary school chorus at the Super Bowl Sunday,” tweeted J-Hud.

In addition to Hudson, Alicia Keys will sing the National Anthem and Beyoncé will headline the halftime show at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome in New Orleans.

Jennifer was humble when she was an ugly, fat bitch on Idol. But her ego has gone through the goddamn roof since she lost all that weight.

@Trace, She was never “ugly” or “fat.” She was a thick, curvy, BEAUTIFUL woman.

I stopped bein’ a fan when she decided to turn anorexic.

Its crazy how people stop being a fan just because a person decided to become healthier and lose weight. You weren’t a fan in the first place. Congrats J. Hud cantv wait for new music or a movie.

@Yep, Try telling that to somebody who was bumpin’ her first album on repeat (“Pocketbook” was my favorite song on there…it showed how proud she was of her figure).

SHE WAS NEVER OBESE…she was thick and beautiful.
