Jennifer Hudson Collects Best Performance by an Actress in a Supporting Role for Dreamgirls

Former American Idol contestant Jennifer Hudson one-upped the Fox reality show with an Award a little more meaningful than anything Simon Cowell, Paula Abdul or Randy Jackson could have presented. Hudson took home an Academy Award for Best Performance by an Actress in a Supporting Role for “Deamgirls.”

Hudson beat out Adriana Barraza and Rinko Kikuchi from “Babel,” Cate Blanchett from “Notes on a Scandal,” and Abigail Breslin from “Little Miss Sunshine.”

Jennifer Hudson also won a Golden Globe Award for her role in “Dreamgirls.”
