Jennifer Hudson: 'I've Dreamt of This My Whole Life'

 

ET was backstage at the Grammys with a glowing Jennifer Hudson after she took home the award for Best R&B Album, and the singer tells Kevin Frazier why it was such an emotional moment.

Legendary singer, Whitney Houston, presented the award for the Best R&B Album category, and just seeing Whitney on stage brought Jennifer to tears.

"Once I saw Whitney on stage announcing and introducing the category, that was it for me," Jennifer says. "Even before she said my name I lost it. I was full of emotion."
