Jennifer Hudson is getting back into the swing of things:

Jennifer Hudson, who’s been in seclusion since the killings of her family members, is getting back to work. The singer is set to begin filming a video next week for her single, “If This Isn’t Love,” according to her label, J Records.

Hudson was due to film the clip in Los Angeles when her mother, Darnell Hudson Donerson, and brother, Jason Hudson, were discovered shot to death in their Chicago home on the city’s South Side on Oct. 24. The body of her nephew, 7-year-old Julian King, was found in a sport utility vehicle three days later.

Hudson’s estranged brother-in-law, William Balfour, who is married to Hudson’s sister Julia, has been charged in the slayings. Prosecutors have said Balfour was upset Julia had been dating another man. The star has thanked the public for their support since the tragedy, and last week issued a statement after she was nominated for four Grammy awards, including best R&B album for her self-titled debut. She has recently been featured in ads for the Gap, but those images were shot well before the murders, according to The Associated Press.

We gotta applaud Jennifer for trying to pick up the pieces after that heinous tragedy. Sometimes work can be a positive distraction. We wish her all the best.

    Yeah I’m really glad that she’s moving forward. My heart goes out 2 her as she continues 2 mourn especially with it being the holiday season and all. I don’t think I will EVER be able 2 wrap my mind around the grief she has 2 deal with particularly considering how close she was with her mom.

    And that wanna be thug that offed her mother, her brother and little nephew out of jealousy over Julia dating another man is the Ultimate Example of B**chAssedness. I hope his experience in prison is perpetually miserable and that he has 2 fight off rapists regularly.

    True Hudson fan here. I was concerned if this tragedy hampered the progress of her album. I was eagerly awaiting her next LP. I was hoping that is was going to be her duet with Fantasia.

    At any rate I know this isn’t going to be an easy road for Jennifer. I pray her family and career the best. I truly believe our people have it in their DNA to have the fortitude to rise like the phoenix in the midst of adversity.

    Go Jen!

  • Tasha

    I am SO proud of her. May god continue to bless her and the reset of her family. She is truly a God fearing woman to be able to bounce back after all that she went through. Good luck on those Grammy’s Jen, you deserve everything good thing you have coming to you. It’s your time!!

    Do yo thang J Hud

  • Magz

    i agree. hope she sings at the inauguration. hopefully this all makes her stronger somehow.

  • Gold red purple

    she deserves to sing at the inaugaration.

    Its better for her to keep herself busy and go back to music/acting, promote the album etc and then when thats all done take a break. Its tough though because the music and film indsutry are all about being in the public eye, if she takes time off her career may die out.

    I wish her the best, she seems like a lovely and humble person and has an amazing voice

    My Sympathy and Condolence go out for Jennifer Hudson and Her Family. I think there some truth
    About this this case with William Belfour, there
    things with the evidence here that just don’t make
    any sense it just don’t add up people.
    Apparently, Jason Hudson was entangled in the drug trade and had a drug conviction on his record.
    In fact, according to sources in the neighborhood, at the time of the murders, Jason was walking around with a bullet in his leg from an altercation with other drug dealers in the area.
    It’s possible that the murders were the result of a drug deal gone bad rather than a domestic dispute.
    But police officials appear to be hanging their case on the claim of Balfour’s girlfriend that he confessed to her and asked her to provide an alibi.
    Peterson said there is physical evidence that has been collected but stopped short of stating whether any of it links Balfour to the murders. Forensic and ballistic testing is also still pending, but he said he’d rather not get into any specifics on what tests are outstanding.
    He also said it appears that no one else is involved but that developments may arise later.
    While Balfour has not confessed to any involvement in the homicides, he has made statements to police about the investigation, Peterson said.
    He is scheduled to appear in bond court Wednesday.
    Investigators also revealed yesterday that Hudson’s slain brother Jason had suffered a gunshot wound to the leg before he was killed last Friday. Police are trying to discover how he got that wound and whether it is related to the murders. A public memorial service for the victims will be held tomorrow at the South Side church where Hudson sang as a child
    Chicago police are investigating the possibility that the gun used to kill Jennifer Hudson’s mother, brother, and nephew may have belonged to her murdered sibling, who reported the weapon stolen just months ago. The chrome and black .45-caliber Sig Sauer semiautomatic pistol, found near the body of Hudson’s 7-year-old nephew, is identical to the one Jason Hudson reported stolen, reports the
