Jennifer Hudson

Any story that begins on the South Side of Chicago is probably inspirational. From being voted off of American Idol to losing her closest relatives to tragic violence, Jennifer Hudson is the ultimate example of resilience. Experiencing disappointments and devastation that might send others to the asylum, Jennifer Hudson rose more resplendent than ever before. She’s proven that there’s no excuse for mediocrity. She’s convinced me that if I let my dreams die, I only have my self to blame.
