From EBONY:
On the Divine Moment of Portraying Aretha Franklin:
All I can say is that it’s God. I can’t say that I necessarily know, but I know when I’m there, especially with this particular project. It really hit close to home. It was led by real emotion that came from a real place.
On Her Faith and This Season of Her Life:
As my mother used to say, ‘Jenny, you’re a woman of faith,’ ” Hudson says. “And as long as I’m that, I couldn’t be more proud of myself. And hopefully people see God .
