Jennifer Hudson on Respect and Performing with Prince Before He Died
Aug 12 2021
With director Liesl Tommy’s feature film debut, Respect, opening in theaters this weekend, I recently spoke to Jennifer Hudson about her fantastic work playing Aretha Franklin in the biopic. During the interview, Hudson talked about how working on Dreamgirls with Bill Condon helped her in this role, what she does to keep her voice strong and fresh so it doesn’t fail her during filming, what people would be surprised to learn about the making of Respect, and what it was like signing with Prince before he died.
