And I Am Telling You!

I just heard that Jennifer Hudson scooped the best supporting actress role for her portrayal of Effie White in Dreamgirls. This is in addition to the golden globes and the BAFTA she had already won.

I watched the show with Simon on Saturday night, and I agree that she is very deserving of all her accolades. And she does have a quite a pair of lungs.

But...

...if you want to hear Effie White done properly, you have to go back to the woman who made the role her own on the Broadway stage. The incomparable Jennifer Holliday.



I also think that Patience, one of the songs from the musical, would make a good choral piece.
