The 2007 Academy Awards-Winners

Jennifer Hudson took home the Best Actress in a Supporting role Oscar for 'Dreamgirls.' Out of all the speeches tonight I enjoyed hers. She kept her acceptance speech brief and to the point.

Before she accepted her Oscar from George Clooney, Jennifer gave a hug to Beyonce Knowles.

JHud thanked her grandmother, Jennifer Holliday, the cast and director of "Dreamgirls", and her family.
"Oh my God, I have to just take this moment in. I cannot believe this. Look what God can do. I didn't think I was going to win. If my grandmother was here to see me now. She was my biggest inspiration."

I loved the hip swing at 1:49, there was a lot of chemistry there. I loved it! Anika killed Patience.

Anika surely did her thing at the awards. I love the way she and Eddie sang 'Patience' in the movie.
