    They always told her, "You don't have to shout." It's not shouting with a voice like Jennifer Hudson has. It's called belting! And she does it amazingly!

      Actually, the judges were on to something by telling her not to shout. When she performed "I never loved a man" for Aretha Franklin in 2008 (?), she said Aretha pretty much told her the same thing. You can hear the difference between when she performed that song for Aretha then and when she did it for her again at the BET Honors in 2014. I suspect that's probably why Aretha was giving her the OK sign at the end of the performance, but I don't know if that's the case.
      For me, personally, I am able to hear the difference in JHud's singing. She is belting more flawlessly now rather than shouting. Yeah, there really is a difference.

      Nacho Mamma That was coming from judges that don't know how to sing well. None of them are qualified to judge a singing contest. They should have had vocalist judging the contest.

You can see it's not a natural belting: you can see it in her mouth placement, in her face and in her body. you don't feel love, you feel that she's trying to convince... alomost like angryness. And she doesn't need to!

    Way to go girl. You were a winner in my heart from the beginning. When I look at those judges they were old school and you being so young and hot full of fire and zeal, in a new level, a new sound, a new era that they never ever heard before, as a judge more or less failed themselves much. Thank you Lord for the potential in this mighty women who knows who she is and belted her voice out for the world to hear.
    Judge called it yelling, oh boy like I said they were being judgemental than being a judge. I salute you beautiful woman Jennifer.

    This is my all time favourite performance on Idol ever. I had goose bumps when she sang this. When she left I was like " what the hell?" knew she had star quality. Simon knew it also.

    I remember the first time I heard this perfomence by a snipped audio mp3 when someone put it on the internet back in 2004. As I heard her voice I thought the earth was shaking by this phenomenal vibrato and the belting. At this very first moment I became a fan.

    The strong, or rather harsh critiques made Jennifer even stronger!! We know we must be a cut above the rest of the pack. Sorry, that's the way it has always been in life. Yes, we can take it, or we'll be left behind!!! All those lemons just made her stronger in life. Miss Hudson, thanks for persevering and traveling onward. Sometimes, success comes with many blows.

    I feel so sad that she experienced racism growing up as a child then to have members of her family including her mom killed by some bone headed psychopath. her voice lives and continues to touch others' hearts and expire. the price of fame was too much of a cost for her but she never allowed it to break her spirit. Jenifer Hudson is a very strong and brave woman. incredible singer, one of my personal favorites in artist history
