Jennifer Hudson's son is a fan

Jennifer Hudson's 20-month-old son recognises her music.

The singer-and-actress loves playing her new album 'I Remember Me' to baby David because he is already showing signs of musical ability, which she thinks comes from her performing live during her pregnancy.

She said: "I love to share it with my baby, he's so musical himself. It makes it that much more worthwhile to know that when he hears it he knows it's me. It makes it that much more precious to share it with someone.

"When I was on tour I was pregnant with him and I guess he could hear me singing then, so he knows when he hears his mummy's voice. I sing to him at night, that's one way to calm him down or entertain him through music. He sings back to me too."

Jennifer - who is engaged to David's father, wrestler David Otunga - recently revealed she flew back to the US from South Africa for just one day when she was filming 'Winnie' because she missed her son so much.

She said: "You know what? My momma would do it for me, so I needed to go and see about my child, and I hopped on that plane. That's things my mother would have done. Everything I do, I do from example, like, 'What she would have done for us.' "

Jennifer's single 'I Remember Me' is out now, and her album will be released in the UK on April 25.
