This past weekend, during the American Music Awards 50th Anniversary special, Jennifer Hudson enthralled the crowd. Even though she gave her typical amazing singing performance, her haircut was the one that really got people talking.
It may be puzzling that a celebrity’s new hairdo would create such a sensation, but Hudson’s look had nothing to do with a daring new cut or color for the occasion. Rather, admirers of the 43-year-old vocalist conveyed their conviction that she had entirely shaved her head. We can confirm that, contrary to what many social media users thought, Jennifer Hudson has not truly gone “bald,” even though we are convinced she would still look amazing.
Legends like Mariah Carey, Nelly, and Nile Rodgers performed on Sunday night (October 6) to commemorate the American Music Awards’ 50th anniversary.
Fans’ confusion about the current artists’ lack of recognition during the ceremony dominated much of the conversation around the event. The simple answer is that the normal AMAs will now take place in March 2025 instead of as scheduled. As the name suggests, Sunday’s event was an anniversary special celebrating the awards’ half-century of relevance in the music business.
The surprises didn’t stop there, as Jennifer Hudson, 43, attracted a lot of attention with her presence.
For the occasion, the Dreamgirls actress chose a figure-hugging, glossy gown that emphasized her silhouette and exuded elegance.
One of the night’s most watched videos saw Hudson introducing Mariah Carey to the AMA stage. People on social media reacted angrily to her appearance in the clip, believing that she had cut off her hair.
On Instagram, someone wrote, “Not me thinking she went bald although she would look stunning.”
To the same post, another person replied, “Same. But she looks good in it. If she ever does, that is.
“Me too! I thought I was the only one haha until I saw the pony tail [sic],” a third person said.
“What made me believe Miss Hudson was bald? However, I think that would look fantastic,” remarked a fourth user.
“Jen, I thought you went bald for a minute,” a fifth person said.
One commenter said, “Lord thank God [..] she didn’t go bald.” Another said, ” “I thought she was rocking the bald look,” said another person.
It’s possible that fans remember Hudson’s 2015 bald hairdo. The singer at the time captioned a selfie she had uploaded to Instagram with her hair pulled back, saying, “Who needs hair when you’re serving face!”
Recall that the centerpiece of Hudson’s AMAs performance ought to have been her stirring rendition of “I Will Always Love You,” a smash song made popular by Whitney Houston in the 1992 movie The Bodyguard.
Prior to her amazing performance, Hudson was questioned about her relationship with the late Whitney. “What is my connection to Whitney Houston?” she asked in response. The gospel, you know, the presence, is a gift, in my opinion. I was just struck by it at a young age. I doubt that there was ever a moment when I was unaware of Whitney.”
Heartbreaking Tragedy: 18-Year-Old Dies Just Weeks After Collapsing at Graduation!
A sad event has happened in a community recently. An 18-year-old girl named Sienna Stewart passed away unexpectedly at her high school graduation ceremony.
Sienna had a heart transplant when she was very young, at just 8 years old. She had a condition called cardiomyopathy since she was 4 years old, which made her heart weak. The transplant helped her live a fairly normal life for 10 years, but earlier this year she started feeling unwell again.
Her mom, Saevon Chum, said Sienna had been having episodes where she would collapse. Tragically, one of these episodes happened during her graduation ceremony on May 23, 2024. Paramedics were already there trying to help when Saevon arrived.
The principal of Hiram High School asked for a moment to help Sienna when she collapsed. It was a very distressing moment for everyone there.
Sienna’s mom described how the ambulance was already on the scene when she arrived. This time, Sienna didn’t wake up after collapsing, which had never happened before.
The whole community is grieving for Sienna Stewart, remembering her as a young woman who faced health challenges with bravery.
Sienna woke up a few minutes later and decided she wanted to go to her graduation ceremony instead of going to the hospital.
“All she told me was, ‘I just want to graduate, I want to walk.’ That’s all she wanted, because she missed her prom earlier when she was in the hospital,” said her mom, Saevon.
Sadly, Sienna passed away on Wednesday, June 12, just a few weeks after getting her diploma.
“As a mom, you feel so proud because she fought through something that hurt her. You have to be proud. I was proud until the end,” Saevon said.
According to Sienna’s obituary, she had plans to go to college and study sonogram technology starting in the fall.
Rest in peace, Sienna Stewart.
