Jennifer Hudson was spotted in New York this morning as she visited the Today Show (January 9, 2012).
Hudson is making the rounds promoting her new book, “I Got This: How I Changed My Ways and Lost What Weighed Me Down” and says the negative feedback she received about her weight loss came as a surprise:
“Inside, you’re still the same, but the rest of the world does not see you that way,” she said. “Everything is not all good.”
Jennifer also appeared on Dateline NBC last night where she spoke about the backlash she’s received since losing the weight… and my post “Does it really matter if J-Hud Had Weight Loss Surgery” was actually shown on the show!

StraightFromTheA made Dateline!! *Faints*
In addition to her book and her weight loss issues, Hudson speaks about her marital plans and coping with the loss of her family.
Check out Jennifer’s Dateline NBC interview [StraightFromTheA is spotted around 1:38 in Part 3]:

CONGRATS lady!!! God is good and hard work does pay off! That’s truly a blessing!!!!
Congrats on making Dateline! That’s awesome!
I love JHud…Why does she always give the double wave?
Awww…Congrats!
I broke this news to you @ATLien on Twitter. I deserve credit in this post.
Congrats Michelle on making Dateline.
Not that it matters to Jennifer, I feel remorseful now posting on that story about it not being possible to lose extra skin just through losing the weight. I congratulate her and what ranged true to me in her testimony to shedding the pounds was that I also walk and listen to my gospel and believe in christ that I too can lose a few (Ok a lot of extra) pounds. I recant what i previously said and will now use her story as inspiration and aspiration.
NO, it doesn’t matter that she had weight loss surgery, Jennifer just need to be truthful and own it, just like she’s dillusional with this marriage (that will not work) she’s going to have without a prenup, which I know he talked her out of, because he is an OPPORTUNIST.
No it doesn’t matter. What I don’t understand is why people are so invested in these celebrity lives. As far as I am concerned JHud’s weight loss, Beyonce and JayZ’s baby, duchess Kate and Prince William, etc does not effect my personal life. As long as their decisions dones get me fired or mortgage forclosed on, I could careless.

Thank you guys! (((hugs)))
I love how people talk about her like they looked over her medical records or something. Just because she lost more weight than you might be comfortable with, does not mean she had surgery. If she’d had the surgery, the weight would have come off way faster than it did, and she would be sagging all over the place. Let that girl have her moment in the sun, and stop eating sour grapes just because you can’t attain the goal weight you dream of.
Why oh why do people repeatedly visit celebrity gossip blog sites 2,3 maybe every time they sit in front of their computer then later complain about the material in which they know are going to relevant on the site.
Omg……congrats!!!!!!!! I read this blog at least 2x a day.
She has the ugliest legs.
That is all.
Congratulations on your site being featured on Dateline. You deserve it!
congrats on your blog article getting on dateline. that is national and international exposure.
I’m happy for her but if she had surgery she should be honest instead of trying to capitalize off of the less fortunate.my question is if weight watchers works why is her sister still a fat ass?
