No Fashion Sense

Posted by Bossip Staff

Jennifer Hudson in gold

It’s refreshing to see that Jennifer Hudson is aware of her fashion victim status:

“Jennifer Hudson has revealed she’s clueless when it comes to fashion. She says, “I have never been label-crazy. But I wouldn’t do a knock-off. In a recent interview they asked me what was I wearing. And I said, ‘I have no idea. To be honest, I don’t like any shoes. And I can’t stand heels. I don’t know what are the highest heels I ever had. And I won’t last in them too long, at all.’”

That actually explains a lot. Especially those sandals a-la-PayLess.

    i prefer it is a fake news as well as some magazines said she kept dating rich men from the famous free interracial dating site s u g a r m i n g l e DOTC o m.. in the past weeks. Good luck, Woman!

  2. Southern Belle 225

    That outfit is a confirmation to us that she’s clueless about fashion. Its okay though because I still love her and she has sense enough to know when she needs stylist.

  3. getyourhandouttamypocket

    Glad she sees the light…unlike folks like Lil’ Mama who just don’t give a damn.

  4. E$

    I can’t believe people thought this girl could hold a light to Beyonce’

  5. sxyQblondie

    THIS ENSEMBLE DOES HAVE ME SCRATCHING MY TEMPLE A TAD BIT. ESPECIALLY THE SHINY SUIT MAN JACKET. NEVER THE LESS, SHE CAN SING HER ARSE OFF, SO I GUESS SHE DOESNT HAVE TO RELY ON FASHION LIKE SOME PEOPLE DO.

  6. Fellow Houstonian

    There is nothing wrong with PAYLESS! Those shoes last long and sometimes look better than those shoes that you gotta take a loan out for!!!!

  7. Fellow Houstonian

    That’s why she won the oscar, not Beyonce. I will take SOUL over POP any day!!!!

  8. bree

    LMAO! JHud is a REAL chick..she is soo not into that Hollywood shit..kudos to her!

  9. WordzOfaProphet

    What can u expect?? She came from what and ended up where??? U can’t just learn fashion overnight and at least she admits that. But maybe after da album drop she’ll have enough money to get some assistance or at least hire some help.

  10. k.k

    hahahaha i think if u subtract the jacket she’ll look cute..bossip ur bad!hahaha

  11. Lollipop

    all I am going to say is, “WOW!”

  12. I'm Just Me

    Tell Us something we don’t know Jen. Seriously!

  13. JAD

    Everyone does not know how to dress and that is fair.


  14. If she drops the jacket…and puts on some neutral Christian Dior platforms she would be doing it.

    C’mon J.Hud lets get it 2gether babes…


  15. Hold up…drops jackets…switches to neutral Christian Dior platforms…throws on some Balenciaga shades…and a Richard Prince for Louis Vuitton speedy she would be killin it.

    Matter of fact J.Hud just get a friggin stylist…

  16. Lady Architect

    WordzOfaProphet,

    I agree that celebrity fashion is not learned overnight. I feel her pain about heels. They look nice on your feet but after while you must admit that they hurt unless you are wearing aerosoles. Older people tell me all the time if I don’t give my ankles a break I’ll have trouble walking as I age.

  17. LOVETOBEME

    WHO DA F*** CARES ABOUT FASHION? BESIDES MOST FOLLWOERS AND THOSE WHO CARE TO LOOK LIKE EVERYBODY ESLE…NONE OF THAT SHH YOU CAN TAKE WITH YOU…AND WHY WOULD U WANT TO?? THERES OTHER CRUCIAL THINGS IN LIFE TO BE MORE CONCERNED ABOUT. I LOOOVE JHUD AND IF MA WANTED TO ROCK A DAMN GARBAGE BAG..THATS HER BUISNESS…IM SICK OF PPL FEELIN THEY THE RIGHT TO JUDGE SOMEBODY ESLES APPERANCE. remeber the way you judge ppl on earth will be the way you be judge by GOD. THATS WHATS WRONG WITH THE WORLD TODAY MOST PPL WALK AROUND AS IF THEY ON THE SAME LEVEL AS GOD. PLEASE…UR NO MORE PERFECT OR BETTER THAN THE NEXT MAN. And I dont blame Ms HUD, for not carin to rock labels or high heel shoes…life is journey and ppl choose to make life hard by carin what other ppl think or tryin to live up to other ppl expectations…live for God and youll see how simple and mellow life truly can be.

    WordzOfaProphet,

Older people tell me all the time if I don’t give my ankles a break I’ll have trouble walking as I age. That’s why I always carry a pair of flats with me and leave them in the trunk for when I need them.

  19. mrslaadee

    That’s why celebrities hire stylist. I don’t care what she does but she can’t keep coming out looking like a country bumpkin. This is life AFTER American Idol….so dress like it!

  20. num1dominicano

    at least she’s covering up her giblets…..


  21. LOVETOBEME

    I agree with you 100%. Fuck being caught up in the label hype. I think it’s highly refreshing that she’s not into all that bullshit and just wears clothes. People like her can’t win with people like skyobercam and Bossip. If she doesn’t adhere to trends, she’s a “fashion victim”, if she does, she’s fallin into Hollywierd. Where the fuck is the median???

    She’s not a victim, in fact, she’s more free than those who are the real victims to following this bullshit label trend.

  22. Simply Juicy

    Whom ever is her stylist needs to be shot!!!!!

    Jennifer hit me up and I will hook you up with some real DIVA style and make you look like a star!!!!

    They making my girl look a hott ass mess and it makes no sense at all!!!

  23. $m♥K.E.Y.

    Admittance is always the first step in these situations!

    Admittance….


  24. NO NO NO BOSSIP, WITH THE “A LA PAYLESS” SANDALS ON, I GOT SOME VERY SIMILAR SANDALS ON LIKE THAT 2DAY, DON’T DO THAT 2 ME AND J HUD LOL

  25. $m♥K.E.Y.

    @ENVY ME

    lmaoooooooooooooooooo

  26. Cage

    Leave J-Hud alone… People will still wear whatever the fuck they want… I wonder how the bossip staff dresses? Like some fuckin bums i bet, wit some flea market shit on…

    On a sidenote: she look like she can suck the hell out some dick… J hud got some coolers on her…

  27. Cage

    @ Bree: Mornin girl ;)

  28. as seen on t.v.

    everything doesn’t have to have a label on it and cost a mortgage payment for it to be stylish and look good…im sure a good stylist will grab her soon…

  29. Anonymous3 - the fire sign

    J Hud needs to realize that part of her “profession” involves fashion and that she needs to look presentable even if she is coming off a plane…this get-a-long gang attire looks a mess….if she don’t know designers then needs to get to know them…at aleast a few labels that she finds interesting…..she’s messing up her image by looking like this when she knows someone might take her picture…it’s not enough for her to look good at an award show or an industry gathering

  30. Madame Enigma

    I guess being ‘humble’ is back in this year.

    I see you J Hud…

  31. Jahpson

    yes!

    she has made it painfully obvious that she is sticking to the current trends out there without sticking to her own style. and thats why she looks a mess!!

    Don’t try to be like anybody but yourself. and those leggings have got to go


  32. Who cares about fashion when the girl can REALLY sing


  33. JHud always looks cute in my opinion. Last I heard she had Andre Leon Talley (editor of vogue) giving her style tips. Problem ismost people who have style get slammed for not having it, cuz Majority of people don’t know style when they see it. read some fashion mags people, then try and come at o’girl for not havin a fashion sense. She looks good. And thick too, Biggups to her.


  34. I like this kid. She’s guileless. I wouldn’t recommend a stylist. They don’t know anything about style, just trends. Jennifer’s money would be better spent hiring a dressmaker and cultivating a relationship with an experienced salesperson at a very good shop, on the order of Daslu in Brazil or at the very least Bergdorf Goodman or Barney’s.

  35. Neo-Geo

    Ya chicks are crazy! Granted, she ain’t got da best get-up on but we all seen far worst from others. Ya get mad at most of us guys for judging ya based strictly on appearence but then you freely critique another sista’s look without hesitation. Maybe she’s just a down-to-earth type of chick. You know, there are people in this world who don’t let fame & money get to them.

  36. Missy

    Just because some of these celebs are fabricated and materialistic, doesn’t mean they are true to them selves. Jennifer Hudson is!!! She might not be your next handbag, sunglasses, jeans, shoes, shirts, panties, bra, stockings, earrings, necklace….woo…designer like some others, but the girl is kind in spirit and above all talented! I fell in love with her for how she sings and act, not what she wears! Go Jhud!!!

  37. CNS

    What she should do is find some comfortable but figure flattering clothing and footwear(not necessary designer labels),buy it in a variety of colors. That should be a good start.

  38. Valenne

    @ GEO

    Exactky!

    Not only we have to be judged by man (too big, too skinny, too tall, too dark, too light, too much this or that) but we have to be criticized by females too!

    Jennifer hudson can sing and she never pretends to be a fashion icon, and she don’t give a shit! Lots of people that are labelled as fashion icon cannot dress anyway so wtf are you talking about! Today, if you have style, you become a star like rihanna! What a fucked up world! There is no room for talent, concistency and artistry! Just show that you can dress and you will be good!

  39. lisa

    just a bit curious..the magazine HOLLYWOOD GOSSIP reported her profile was found on the famous rich men seeking affairs site c e l b m i n g l e.c o m last week and she was seeking her sugar daddy there. wow!!

  40. WordtotheWise

    I like Jen. She’s real, not phony and caught up with this Hollyweird b.s. Good for her. Stay true to yourself, Jen. You can’t please everyone. No matter how she dresses, there’s ALWAYS gonna be someone that will criticize and like others have said, women are the worst offenders. Do you, baby girl!


  41. now I am sure we could have told her that!

  42. Celebrity CSI

    @Bossip

    NONE do you hear me. Zero! do you really hear me. Okay then. lol

  43. Lil' Kevin Mayne

    what exactlys wrong with her outfit?

  44. Kalizahfarq - you can call me Kali

    well, she actually could have simply said “i was in sex in the city” and that would have been a statement in of itself – i just assumed that she was AHEAD of the fashion buzz, you know, some fashionista samantha style wear .. now i know better


  45. at least she is honest.

  46. jojo

    good for her. payless sandals so what.


  47. that outfit is a mess


  48. Payless is LIVE don’t HATE!

  49. ama

    there is nothing wrong with that photo. Would i rock that look probably not, but it’s definitely not a hot mess (dramatic much?)a hot mess would be khia, or jhud rockin’ ill- fitting clothing with her breasts all outta door…

    If anything she looks like an average chick, and maybe that’s where the problem lies her attire should scream glam & determined… give or take a comfy day (which this just might be)

  50. TRUSELF

    The stars don’t even know shit about fashion… that is why they have stylist.

    Stars are losers just like us except they have enough money to pay someone else to make them look good.

    Broke blacks folks will always struggle b/c their more about labels and fake looking good and keeeping some white man and his family paid, instead of stacking their paper and having their own wealth.

    Atleast J hud was honest and seems sincere which i can’t say for other stars she worked with.

    Black folks always talking about keeping it real and they the main ones fakin to impress the next broke ass person beside them.

  51. TRUSELF

    If you did not go to a louis, macys, nodstrom, etc or the actual name brand store your ass rocking fake shit bitch.

    Beauty supply stores, markets, bus trips to outlets, corner cart, are all fake shit.

    everybody else gets paid except the black person. Go get hair and nails from Koreans. want to talk about being clean but you go get your feet donein a bacteria waste land. The toold are dipped back into the same solution after each usage but thouroughly cleaned. Nail polish applied on feet with fungus. Man wants you to think your natural body is not good enough that is why you waste your money. he wants black folks to stay broke and we so ignorantly follow his rules.

  52. cynthia

    HER OUTFIT IS GREAT! LOVE IT.

  53. cynthia
