In most people’s eyes, the 2006 hit film Dreamgirls was supposed to be Beyoncé’s big break in the acting world that would launch her to new heights in Hollywood. However, while Beyoncé’s star power did indeed grow, it was her co-star, Jennifer Hudson, who had the breakout role and went on to win the Oscar and become the hot new it-girl in Hollywood. Since then, rumors have always claimed that Bey and Hudson were feuding over J Hud’s success. Hudson recently set the record straight on an episode of “Watch What Happens Live.”
During the show’s signature game of “Plead The Fifth,” Hudson was asked to answer three hot-button questions and could opt to plead the fifth in answering just one of them. Despite the potential tabloid fodder that could result from her answers, Hudson chose to answer them all, including the question of whether she and Beyoncé really were feuding over sharing the spotlight.
“There [were] never any rifts at all. That is still my girl to this day. I love her. We’ve always been good,” Hudson claimed.
Well, we’re glad that Hudson and Bey never fell into a petty beef, especially since we’ve all seen that clearly there was and still is enough room for the both of them to shine in the industry. Unfortunately, some other celebs just weren’t as friendly or lucky. Check out some major diva beefs below. – nicholas robinson
