Jennifer Hudson To Star In The Secret Life of Bees

Jennifer Hudson is not playin' around with her film career.

After the novice actress won the Oscar for Dreamgirls, I wasn't quite sure what her next move would be, or if she would be able to really sustain a movie career. Well, someone is advising her well, because she's just signed on to star in The Secret Life of Bees alongside Queen Latifah, Dakota Fanning and possibly Alicia Keys. Adapted from the acclaimed novel, the movie is sure to be a hit.

This, of course, is on top of her supporting role in the Sex and the City movie, and a small part in the film Winged Creatures as Forrest Whittaker's daughter. Nice choices J-Hud!

My only question is...when is your album coming out??
