Did She Really Go Bald? Fans Are Convinced After Jennifer Hudson’s Stunning AMAs Appearance!

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.”

My Husband Didn’t Take Me on Vacation with His Family – I Found Out Why after Unexpected Help from My Mother-in-Law

Layla’s husband, Tom, has an annual tradition involving a family vacation that she isn’t invited to. After years of being excluded, Layla finally asks why she isn’t allowed to join, only for Tom to lie and blame his mother. But when Layla does her own digging, she and her mother-in-law discover a family secret that breaks the family apart.

My husband, Tom, has been going on an annual island vacation with his family since we had gotten married. That’s twelve years of family trips without me.

Every year, he’d pack his bags and leave our two kids and me behind.

“My mom doesn’t want in-laws on the trip, Layla,” he said. “You know this. It’s the same story every year. But still, you continue to ask about it.”

My husband rolled his eyes and sat on the couch, his hands wrapped tightly around his phone.

“Why don’t you just cancel this one, and we can take the kids on holiday instead?” I asked, tossing a salad to go with our dinner.

“Why would I do that?” he retorted. “The kids are too young and it will be chaotic. When they’re older, we can start talking about holidays with them.”

“And me?” I asked. “Are you sure your mom will mind?”

And that was when something snapped in me.

There, right on social media for everyone to see, was a carousel of photos from last year’s vacation. There was Tom, smiling widely next to his brother and sister-in-law. There were other photos of their sister and her husband, too.

But I was told that Tom’s mother didn’t want any in-laws on the trip?

“It’s clear that she just didn’t want you there,” I said to myself.

I needed to know more information before I blew up at my mother-in-law. As much as Denise seemed to have an issue with me, I knew that if I asked her straight up, she would give me an answer.

So, I decided to call Sadie, Tom’s brother’s wife. She was fairly new to the family, with them having only been married for about a year now.

So that’s what they thought. That I hadn’t been able to make their trip because of my children.

“Listen, Layla,” she said. “I’ve got to go, I’m getting another call. I’ll call you this evening!”

She hung up immediately.

I knew that my next move would be going to my mother-in-law. If anyone was at the root of this lie, it would be Denise.

“Wait, what?” I asked, stunned.

“Tell me what you know,” she said, pouring a glass of juice.

Shocked, I spilled everything. The photos, Tom’s lies, the years of being left behind with and without my sons.

And more than that, she became a constant presence in my life, always wanting to be around me and help wherever she could, and insisting on being an active grandmother to my kids.

“I never imagined that it would all come to this,” she said one afternoon as we sat in the living room together.

“Me neither,” I replied. “But at least we know the truth now.”
