It's been over a year since winning that elusive trophy, and the world wants to know if she really has the chops for both the music and acting scenes; or whether or not it was just a fluke?
Hudson would like for you to know that it wasn't the latter and that she's been working hard on both fronts to show the range of her talent.
Rather than headline a film because of the Academy Award winning status, the former 'American Idol' finalist chose to take a small, but incredible, role in one of the most highly anticipated films of the summer, 'Sex and the City: The Movie.'
Hudson plays Louise, an assistant to Carrie, portrayed by Sarah Jessica Parker.
Besides that, the first single of her upcoming album drops this month, and she recently completed two films, 'Winged Creatures' and 'The Secret Life of Bees.'
BlackVoices.com film blogger Wilson Morales caught up with the buxom beauty during press rounds for the film She chatted about her role, her upcoming album, and next two films with Forest Whitaker, Queen Latifah, and Alicia Keys.
See what she said below...

Am I looking forward to more of Jennifer Hudson in movies and singing. She is a very talented young lady and it has been too long between engagements. Jennifer is very talented and should have been out in a movie sooner. So yea, I'm looking forward to seeing her acting. She is a very good actress. You can't wait too long or you loose your audience. God Bless you Jennifer and good luck.

I feel she was added to the movie 2 pull in the
minority viewers, while they were on the tube they
had no one of color on the show as a regular, no
matter how talented the minority race is, some fail
2 embrace the talent, beauty, have they not figure
it out yet, that we are the ones who run Hollywood
now, have the mega power, Will Smith, Queen Latifah
all the rappers, the so very young and talented
now they want to show case JZ and his new bride they
are the same people they were many mooons ago, when
you have the power roll with it, their kids are all
copying the style of dressing, talk, walk, actually
we are first, what was the word ?, the bottom shall
rise, the top will fall, what was last will be first
first will be last, we are smart, we still made it
born with no silver spoon in our mouth, neither did
we steal from the Indians.............(:
