Jennifer Hudson

Bossip just caught wind that JHud’s rumored pregnancy has finally been confirmed. There is a little David or Jennifer on the way…

Internet rumors have been circulating that Jennifer Hudson is pregnant. While her manager and publicist deny the rumors, two sources close to the Oscar and Grammy winner confirm exclusively to ESSENCE.com that she is indeed expecting. This would be the first child for Hudson.

Hudson, who is currently receiving rave reviews while on tour with Robin Thicke, is engaged to David Otunga, a Harvard Law graduate and former contestant on “I Love New York 2.” The couple plans to marry sometime soon, but hasn’t confirmed a wedding date.

Tragedy struck the singer last October when her mother, brother and nephew were murdered. Hudson made a triumphant return to the spotlight on February 1 when she sang “The Star-Spangled Banner” at the Super Bowl. She went on to win her first Grammy Award for best R&B album on February 8.

Hudson is on tour through May 8. Her next show is April 23 at the Fox Theatre in St. Louis, Missouri.

Congrats! In the wake of her tragedy a new life will definitely brighten up her days. Now, when’s the wedding, Jen?

    I’m happy for Jen as far as having a baby but I hope that David/Punk will treat her right and really loves her, if not as the Bible says he “will reap what he sows” especially after all that has happened with her family.

  • Just Sayin

  • zappy

    I really wish Jennifer the best. She just seems like a really nice person.

    In terms of the guy/fiance, I hope it works out. I know a lot of people are riding against him, but I prefer to give him the benefit of the doubt. Appearing on a reality show is not the worst thing in the world.

    I hope it works out for both of them, especially Jennifer who has been through so much these last few months.

    I wish she would of gotten married first to be honest with you…

    SMH @ Black people thinking it’s just fine to have a baby out of wedlock and for NOT valuing getting married first then waiting a little bit before having a child together…

    I understand things happen but she’s in the limelight and a lot of people look up to her…

    I know a number of y’all ain’t gonna like what I just said but it’s my opinion…

    ===========================
    i have to cosign with you, especially in a celebrity’s case. birth control is affordable.

  • Geneva

    Wow some of you are some truly hateful people. Jennifer doesn’t owe it to anyone to say that she is or isn’t pregnant! That is her business! If she is that is a wonderful blessing but if she isn’t so what. Also, the average woman doesn’t tell anyone that she is pregnant until at least the 3rd month just in case something happens in the pregnancy.

    Jenn & David are both grown, and they have been together for almost two years, and the engagement has been almost a year. So bottom line leave them alone.

    IF, she is pregnant and this brings even an small amount of happiness and joy to her world then who are any of you to begrudge her that?

    I still say its nobody’s busniess until the couple involved are ready to tell it. But hey I believe in privacy.

  • WOW

    I hope she knows what she is doing!! I am not hatin on her but Lord have mercy what is she thinking. She reminds of the girl that never had and now that she does she is going over board with it. Slow down alittle and live life and make sure people truly love you before you have babies and have a forever tie together. He was just kissing and sexn New York and crying over her telling him after they spent the night together she was rollin with someone else. He is truly a “Punk” and all eyes on this. I hope I am wrong!!!

  • Mrs. Philly

    IT’S NOT JUST BLACK WOMEN THOUGH…

    Especially in the limelight…

    Brad and Jen are baby mamma and baby daddy right?? But don’t they have like 12 children together?? They don’t care. That shows how much respect he has that he won’t make a good woman out of her.

    @Mrs. Philly

    I understand that, but it’s WAY MORE PREVALENT in the Black community and it bothers me to be honest with you because nowadays it’s seen as alright and is a little bit too acceptable within the our community/culture to be a “babymomma” and NOT a wife first… SMH

    I understand things happen, but she can afford birth control and considering the fact that she’s a celebrity and comes across as a good role model, I just wish that she would of gotten married first…

    It’s just my opinion, I am not attacking or trying to offend anybody…

    There’s a right way to do things and we all know that it’s better to get married first, wait a little bit and then have a child…

  • Mrs. Philly

    @Slide…

  • About it

    @Slide Like a Fresh…
    I understand what you are sayin’. They were planning on getting married, couldn’t they have waited and do it right? She does publicly affirm her faith, right.
    But I do believe this is a special case. On the metaphysical, sometimes a soul is recycled very soon after the death of a young child in the family. That 3 family members were taken out made her the vessel for one of those souls to be recycled (probably the nephew). That soul certainly wasn’t comin’ back through her skank ho of a sister (sorry, y’all, I think the sister was involved).

    Thank You :-)

    The thing is, that “it’s alright to be a babymomma” mentality/attitude within the Black Community really disturbs me and I’m starting to see “well to do”, OLDER and educated Sistas starting to do this to and that’s what bothers me…

    I don’t like the trend that I’m seeing…

    We as a people have to start making dysfunctional things unacceptable and make things that will cause us to progress the thing to do, i.e., getting an education…

    Jen needs some happiness right now. Marriage and a baby would be outstanding. She’s doing big things right now and a baby wouldn’t slow her down one bit. In fact, it would only increase her popularity.

  • AKeysFan1981

    Jennifer is my girl now. However, I don’t think that this David guy is “right” for her. She was with a childhood friend for a number of years and never conceived so I agree. I think that this baby is supposed to fill a void. I just think that he is very undeserving of her, based on his actions on the New York show. I just hope that she has a healthy baby. If this relationship/marriage does not work out, GOD will see her through. Love ya Jen

    Thank you…

    What’s getting me, is that that dysfunctional mentality = “I’ll be a babymomma first and try to be a man’s wife sometime later on” is starting to seep into the minds of our best & brightest Sistas who are educated, successful, etc… and it’s really starting to bother me and so when I see Jennifer Hudson doing this too, I have to admit (it’s my opinion) I makes me kinda upset and wondering why she couldn’t have at least waited until she was married considering the fact that she’s in the limelight and a lot of young women look up to her…

    I don’t know :-(

  • SOMER

    I like Jen and I hope she’s happy. I just have my doubts about this guy. I hope she is not about to get Federlined. Even though Punk is shady he is a Harvard grad who is even more educated about getting paid.

  • Me No Likey

    @ Slide like a fresh pair of gators:
    Question why is when a single, educated, professional white woman decides to have a baby or adopt children she is never viewed as a baby momma but a black women with the exact same status is viewed as a baby momma?

    Angelina Jolie vs Erykah Badu
    Heidi Klum vs. Halle Berry

    So on and so forth

  • Ummmmmm….

    I’m happy to see she is going on living her life, but a little disappointed that she hasn’t even set a date for her wedding yet she probably has a baby due date. In comparison to what she may have been used to (big sister dating ex-cons and a being a baby mama) I guess this would be an upgrade for her. SMH

  • LawdhavMercythisshitis real

    wow .. hope her career goes well

  • Always lookin’ What about You!

    Why are most of the bloggers concerned about the decisions that this woman is making for her life? Are you making the RIGHT decisions for YOUR LIFE? And if you have children. Why are they looking outside of their families and homes for role models? You should be your child’s role model and stop looking for someone else to do YOUR JOB….lazy azzez!

  • Ummmmmm….

    Not to mention, David is suspect in my book. I met him in Chicago at the Legroom after I Love NY. For one, he had his ‘agent’ with him and was trying to act like a celebrity. Then, there was some guy hanging around him, like an obsessed groupie and he wasn’t really paying the women much attention. Even if he’s not gay, based on the spots he frequents and the way he carries himself, not sure I’m buying his love for JHud. I mean, I read somewhere this guy is now trying to be a wrestler?????

  • http://deleted BMW

    If a woman is established in her career and can’t get her man to marry her why not have a child out of wedlock. Our child bearing years are short ladies! remeber that! On eof my aunts is childless because she never got married in order to have children. Now she yearns for her own biological child!

  • KayGee

    Is this really a good time for her to be having a baby??? I’m just saying…

    on the one hand I think it is good so that she can have an “immediate” family member other than her sister, but the timing may be a little off since her concert tour is doing so well.

    I guess ’cause the white media is soo disrespectful that’s why, case and point = that one time when they called Michelle Obama, Barack’s BabyMomma… What type of bullsh#t is that?

    F#ck the white media, whenever they do a newsstory and want a Black person’s perspective they won’t ask a regular Black person, they’ll find the most downtrodden, down on their luck Black person in the vicinity and ask them what happened or their perspective and they forever be having no teeth, are fluent in eubonics and are soo ghetto they don’t have the sense to switch up their slang for TV… The white media can kiss my narrow Black a$$…

    @Slide…

    I had low self esteem because I thought very beckwards when I was younger like people always would tell me how beautiful I was but I never believed them. So I would be beautiful to other people and not beautiful to myself, I didn’t learn that I needed to love myself first before I could love a MAN let alone a BABY.

That misogynistic, arrogant and UGLY AS HELL beast is no match for Beyonce. There’s something else she’s in it for.

  • soldiergirl

    Ms. Lauren (philly) that story and experience is PRICELESS. I have a 15 yr old & (Slide) I tell her all the time how beautiful she is (not that she doesnt already think so) I also have bought her diamonds, take her out to dinner and we vacation somewhere together every yr and I do this to show her that there is life outside of her present demograohic and many culture’s beside her own. I try & instill in her the will to be independent (not that I don’t need a man shyte) but I can do anything I set my mind to type independence. If older women would stop teaching the younger women that bit of useless info we’d all be better off, but back to the subject at hand, teaching young women their worth is something sorely lacking in ALL races but seem to be especially prevelant in the African American communities. I wish I could see a culture that truly grasped & loved themselves/ LOVE being a Black Man or Woman!! But men are fickled if you don’t look a certain way then it’s a no go / some women are the same so when we learn to look beyond and accept men/women as is, or work to better both ourselves I think we will always have this baby mama/baby daddy circus….My opinion only…. 5ft my bad we’re not old are we??? Mature sounds much better..:) Thanks for the reminder, name change? don’t remember that s/n

She will stumble as we all do, but SHE will also pick herself up and come back a little stronger, a little wiser b/c she will remember what her mother taught her.

    I tip my hat to you, my lady….

  • http://bossip.com I done gave up that narcotic !

    I agree…..she’s not making a very wise decision….and ol’ boy seems shady to me for some odd reason. She’s slowing her own roll with a kid…they’ll be broken up soon after…..especially when she packs on the pounds.

  • Big Sister Cougar All Mite-tee – Behold THE GREEN AND GOLD!!!!

    So when Halle had her baby, did you guys go off like this too? Why does everyone want to judge what a single parent is doing. Hell angelina and Brad got what 10 kids and want to have more. Are you saying they are not wrong, but Jennifer is?

    Stop playing judge and jury, worrying about what she is or isn’t doing. I am sure she could care less what people think.

    Hell Jill Scott just gave birth to her son out of wedlock. Is everyone all up in her personal life telling her she is fornicating and going to hell and what the hell ever else people are saying about J-Hud. Be happy for them. At least Baby Daddy is in the picture.

    it’s gonna be a beautiful baby!<3

  • MEAN GREEN MONEY MACHINE

    CHILDREN ARE A BLESSING NO MATTER THE REASON OR SEASON! OBVIOSULY SHE HAS COME TO TERMS TO WHAT SHE NEEDS TO BE HAPPY IN HER LIFE .. FOR SOME IT’S MONEY, MEN, CARS, FRIENDS OR FAMILY & FOR SOME IT’S A CHILD OF THEIR OWN.

    SHE’S A FULL GROWN WOMAN NOW .. I SAY GET READY BECAUSE SHE’S HAVING THE BABY WITH OR WITHOUT THE APPROVAL OF HER FANS :)

    CONGRATS J-HUD!!!

  • clos

    damn she worked sooo hard to lose that weight and bam got knocked up..

  • Black Beauty

    I wish her well, but this pregnancy does not seem like it is coming at the right time. Her career just got back on track and her comes Punk’s baby. SMDH

  • nothankyou

    She’s so talented and a lovely girl, but the best thing you can do for your child is pick their father. No thank you, Punk, no thank you. Keep your seed to ya self.

  • Sepia830

    While I believe that JHud deserves some happiness after everything she went through, a part of me can’t help but feel disappointed that her name can now be added to the long list of black female singers (Brandy, Monica, Chili, T-Boz, Erykah Badu,etc.) that have babies without the benefit of a husband, never mind that they should be concentrating on their careers while they still have the ability to make good money. Babies can wait….

    I have to give props to Beyonce, Mariah and Alicia for doing the SMART thing and waiting.

  • imconfused

    great another horse on the way

  • get over it

    David doesn’t need Jennifer’s money. He has his own. Everybody is not a user.

  • http://bossip bb

    These women seem to be ALERGIC to marriage

    This BABYMOMMA/BABYPAPA culture is not EDIFYING

    Future GENERATIONS are in DEEP trouble

  • The Nu-Commer

    I Am so happy for the both of them may God bless them.

  • Choc

    I am happy for her. God knows she deserves some happiness in her life.

  • princedonte

    stfu this is 2009 everybody is having babies out of wedlock cause no one cares marriage means nothing to straight people any more and it should it’s old and played out i bet god doesn’t care about that sh*t no more grow up and get with the program

  • c from stl

    At first I was somewhat skeptical about this relationship with David ‘Punk’ Otunga but after seeing these two stick it out for a couple of years and seeing how supportive he’s been for her I’m starting to think she may have lucked up on a good guy. When she was at the Grammy’s and started to choke up the camera showed him looking at her and his face seemed so sincere like he’s in it for the long haul. I’m sure they’ve gotten to know each other very deeply over the last few months or so and even if it doesn’t last forever, h3ll nothing does…at least he plans to marry her and I think this baby is her attempt to fill a void in her life. I wish them both the absolute best because this woman is talented and definitely has a bright future ahead and a baby WILL NOT slow her down one bit. Congrats Jen and David!

  • …*MOcarsMOclothesMOjewelsMOhoes*…

    thats wats up

  • Angelyc_Aries

    Although it’s unfortunate that another child is made out of wedlock, which to a person that isn’t even all that religious I know that isn’t ideal, no matter the situation, this is how it is for her.

    I think the issue people have with this verses other celebrity women, like Halle, like Jill Scott, Angelina and so on, is that Punk was on a reality show. That is why we call him Punk – that was his nick name. Not only was he on a reality show, he was vying for a relationship with another reality person – New York. Now Jennifer Hudson is another reality person – from American Idol. So it’s suspicious that he would jump from one reality person to another. That’s what people see and think of.

    But at the end of the day it’s her life, not mine. I’ve got too many things going on, like how I’m going to pay for tuition for my sophomore year, if I’m going to live on campus, and family drama to contend with that is more important to me then contemplating the ramifications of the superstars.

  • And…..(with 5 dots)

    NO, NO, NOOOOOOO!!! She’s just now getting her career going again! And that fiance/boyfriend is SUSPECT. He reminds me too much of Al Reynolds and Johnathan Plummer—DL Golddiggers. I know Clive Davis is beside himself.

  • lorie

    Wish she would’ve waited ’til she got married.

  • blaq

    People kill, many of you were in your mama’s stomach when she walked down the isle. She’s been engaged, and if her family wasn’t murdered she would have already been married. I suppose you have to find a negative comment even about a joyous occasion. Congrats to the couple.

  • Yvonne

    Congrats to Jen and David. I wish them the best.

  • http://bossip bb

    There is NOTHING stopping that woman from getting married right NOW

    She can have a REGISTRY MARRIAGE(court) and have a CHURCH wedding later .

    This is how it STARTS OFF 4 years down the line she will have another two babies for another two DIFFERENT MEN

    This LOW MORALITY should not be ENCOURAGED

    People should LEARN to AIM HIGHER and try and ACHIEVE better TITLES than BABYMAMA

  • christie’s secrets

    @blaq

    i have to agree with you! jennifer hudson is not the babty mama type! she knows this guy for some years now and feel she should try with him!

  • christie’s secrets

    since men are so afraid to have kids, i suggest they just get a vasectomy and undo it once they ready cause birth control pill for years is not good for any body and condoms cannot be used for the longer term either!

  • http://bossip bb

    @blaq
    I couldn’t care less if she won the NOBEL PRIZE for CHEMISTRY,PHYSICS and PEACE.

    And she could be ENGAGED to a YALE,HARVARD and PRINCETON GRADUATE who is a BILLIONAIRE for all I care.

    She should do the right thing and get MARRIED.

    These women that have multiple children out of WEDLOCK are promoting the BABYMAMA/BABAPAPA lifestyle

    Having children out of WEDLOCK has now become the NORM and this should not be ENCOURAGED.

    This is my OPINION and I am ENTITLED to express it in ANYWAY that I see fit.

    If I have TOUCHED a RAW NERVE

    TOUGH

    Do the right thing and PUT A RING ON IT

  • Sydney™

    So let me get this straight — Jennifer’s fiance was on the I Love New York reality show?

    And I just looked at a few of his photos — the name Al Reynolds comes to mind. . .I don’t know about this one.

  • Necy

    I don’t believe it!!! nobody else has comfirmed this news… I’ll believe it when an important source like OPRAH comfirmes it…

  • Necy

    if it turnes out to be true, I hope that she doesn’t let herself get HUGE again… she’s looking good these days!

  • Carla

    Why Jennifer, why ? Punk’s the dad ? Nooooooooooooooooooooooo !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Lol…. Sike, if Jen wants to ruin her life then that her problem. :(

  • Camille

    The baby is good news (blessing) but the baby by Punk was not a good move. I truly think he’s gay and pretty gross. I would be afraid to have his baby after seeing his mother on ILNY.

  • itygrl88

    I just wanted to say how happy I am to read all the posts about how people think its wrong for people to have children out of wedlock. I think people should value their youth. (Although I know Jen is a grown woman) Im so tired of seeing young girls having children that they cant provide for. If your lonley get a pet.

  • Honeybunz

    I saw Jhud in concert a few weeks ago and u could visibly see she was pregnant..I could spot it a mile away!

  • *Treasure*

    People want to hold these celebrities to a higher standard that they do not uphold to themselves. The people who are criticizing Jennifer should not be so judgmental. These celebrities are human and make errors as all men and women do.

    It would serve one well to examine his own flaws instead of prying into someone else’s personal affairs.

  • http://bossip lakeea

    if it is true congrats to her she deserves all the positive things in life i wish her the best of luck and pray that god will carry her far and beyond in her life

  • cheeseGrits

    I will NOT share my Grits!

    Don’t let Julia babysit…

  • Oshie

    There is way too much racism going on. Im the white devil, you should blame me. lol j/k

  • Oshie

    Yuck, I hate grits! Actually I hate all food right now b/c I am tweeking hard.

  • chaychaymonet

    “Outraged”….you have to be white, or a black person who has been picked on all of their life for being “blue black”, that people can only see you in the day time. You must not be a looker either, cuz you are waaaayyyyy too angry. Back up off of Jennifer Hudson, breezy!!!

    Also, who cares if she’s married or not. Yeah, yeah, yeah….we know how it is supposed to happen and it would be nice if it happened like that, but unfortunately, it didn’t. I know plenty of people who were married when they had a child and that didn’t make thier relationship any better nor did it salvage it.

    Marriage is great, but it is not the Alpha and Omega as far as children are concerned. In most cases, women end up being a single parent inside of a marriage anyway.

    As long as they love the child, care for it and provide for it, who cares if they are not married yet. On judgement day, God is not going to be talking to any of you about what Ms. Hudson did wrong…You betta get yo ish in order, why you tracking somebody else’s “wrong doings”.

    Word up….Holla!

  • chaychaymonet

    “Outraged”, We exist to show people who hate themselves so much (like yourself) how being black and beautiful is a blessing. If you only you loved yourself the we love ourselves. I’m sorry that God chose for you to be another race, but deal with it. Embrace what was given to you.

    By the way, my real name is Charina. I think it’s rather beautiful myself. Have a great evening!

    Great way to ruin a thread guys. Immature and lacking in Human Morals . Thank goodness she doesnt care what most of you think and the rest of us will continue to buy her music and appreciate her talents. Have a wonderful life Jhud & David, all the best. Great news, congratulations, woop woop!!!!!!

  • Kristen

    Everybody acting like it’s that big a deal that she got pregnant by Punk… You guys must have forgotten the fact that he had a HARVARD LAW DEGREE… Jen has the big bucks but this dude has potential… he’s not just riding her coat tails

  • Its6amHoGetOut, The only opinion that really matters.. I just saw that Souljah Boy fake Gucci post and I made a list! Ice Cube’s “steal the show” now thats real rap!

  • Divab

    Congrats to Jennifer! Awww.

  • Lia

    Babies are truly a blessing, but this news is disappointing because I thought Jennifer knew better than to get herself knocked up prior to marriage. There are young ladies out there who admire her and will see this pregnancy as something cool. After all if Jennifer can do it and everyone is happy for her, why can’t they? She and David should have at least pulled a Janet Jackson/Rene Elizondo move and had a secret wedding as soon as they found out about the child. No one would have been shocked because they’d announced their engagement anyway, but this… Disappointing.

  • Aquamarina

    The media always seem to through in that her dude David is a “Harvard Law graduate”, but is he actually practicing law?

  • Please!!

    Are you David? What law firm are you at?

    Can we get an update on Lauren London’s pregnancy?

  • About it

    That’s when the unexpected happened… a mutual friend (rumored to be either Jesse Jackson, Sr. or Michelle Obama) played cupid and hooked up Jennifer and David.

    Nice website, I was doing a little internet snooping and stumbled onto your website, I used to be wondering if you knew your blog is displaying unusually within the K-mellon internet browser. I will see everything but the graphics are somehow out of whack. In all probability not a massive deal since hardly no one uses it anymore but I am old school and still use it.
