Jennifer Hudson -- Liar, Ingrate?

Click to return to TMZ.comJennifer Hudson has been trash-talking "American Idol" and dissing on Simon Cowell. But the video evidence makes it clear -- the Dreamgirl is dreaming it all up.

"EXTRA" rolled back the tapes of Hudson on "Idol," and Simon clearly gave her props throughout the season, saying that she was a "front-runner" and calling her "great" multiple times -- high praise from the often harsh Cowell.

Why would Hudson rant about the show and the judge who moved her from obscurity to Oscar winner? Is she an ingrate? Watch the video, then vote.

1. Honestly, I can't stand Jennifer Hudson. I think she only won the Oscar because everyone jumped on the bandwagon. For one thing she is a total fat-ass. It's NOT HEALTHY - it's GROSS. Second, she seems like she thinks she is entitled, as evidenced by her trash talking of American Idol. To add to my disdain for this chick she gets up on stage and thanks God for all her awards - like God really gives a shit about Jennifer Hudson's role in Dreamgirls. Give me a break. God is busy in Iraq sweetheart and dealing with issues that matter like cancer. These celebs have such overblown egos it amazes me. Jennifer Hudson winning the Oscar was a fluke.

2. I'm not sure about her ingrate status, but she is ungrateful for what he has afforded her.

3. She got her statues. Now is the time she has to diss the people who helped her so it will look like she did it all on her own.
It went to her head and how fast it did.

4. Jennifer Hudson will probably never be heard from again after this awards season. She REALLY has a BIG MOUTH and isn't the least bit attractive. She came across a role at the right place and right time. It won't happen again for her. She is and has insulted too many people at this point. AND, nobody is buying her "I love Jesus" act.

The sooner she is gone from the public eye, THE BETTER!

5. Why is it that everyone seems to forget that America votes for American Idol, not Simon or Randy or Paula. The American people vote those singers off each week and then slam Simon for not recognizing the talent. Simon is not responsible for Jennifer leaving the show. He, Paula, and Randy even made a comment last week about not understanding how the public voted off the last male and female of the show and reiterated that it was a singing competition and nothing else.

7. Slimon never wanted her to win. Please. he always made fun of her weight. He hates overweight woman with a passion. You will never see a overwoman with AI because he thinks they cant sell records. Slimon says alot of things but you cant take him seriously. He is a liar and a fake.

8. Jennifer Hudson got lucky and she should be more grateful. She'll be back on the south side of Chicago working at McDonalds if she doesn't watch it.

9. She has shown what kind of person she is already.

10. Overweight ugly people don't sell records. Why do you think Chris Daughtry (hot) and Carrie Underwood (hot) are far more successful then Taylor Hicks (ugly) and Fantasia (uglier)? Duh, this is business and a fatty like Jennifer Hudson needs to be nice because she doesn't have the looks to back up that sh*tty attitude of hers.

11. As far as I'm concerned Oprah Winfrey started all this hype about her, . She seems rude, arrogrant and totally ungrateful. she's just a mouthy idiot who's got a chip on shoulder. And as for the dissing the designer, that is ( the dress) probably the most expensive things she's ever been close to. Can't stand her loud mouth. Plus she has no class, especially "jiggling" everywhere on stage in that red dress, totally gross.

13. I FEEL BAD ABOUT RAGGING ON HER, BUT HERE GOES.

DON'T STAND NEXT TO BEYONCE AGAIN. YOU JUST LOOK STUPID BECAUSE YOU ARE THE UGLY GIRL NEXT TO THE PRETTY GIRL.

JENNIFER, YOUR ALBUM WILL SUCK BECAUSE THEY ARE GOING TO STICK YOU WITH R&B AND THAT OLD MAN CLIVE DAVIS IS DIRECTING YOUR MUSIC CAREER HE KNOWS SQUAT ABOUT MASS APPEAL AND GETTING THE TWEEN AND TEEN MARKET WHO BUY AND DOWNLOAD MOST MUSIC. YOU WILL END OF LIKE RUBIN STUDDARD NOT KELLY CLARKSON THE ONLY TRUE SUCCESS FROM IDOL.

GIRL. YOU ARE FAT AND SO UNPRETTY. GO TO COLLEGE. GO TO GRAD SCHOOL. BE A REGULAR PERSON.

I HATE TO SAY IT. BUT, YOU NEED REALITY. MOVIE ROLLS ARE NOT COMING FOR YOU IN DROVES. HOLLYWOOD ONLY WANTS SKINNY WHITE ACTRESSES. THAT'S MEAN I KNOW. EVEN JLO CAN ONLY DO ROMANTIC COMEDIES WITH HER WHITE MALE COSTARS. SHE WILL NEVER GET AN OSCAR NOD WITH THOSE, AND SHE IS PRETTY AND HOT. YOU ARE NOT.

I FEEL SORRY FOR YOU. I PITY YOU.

TAKE THE MONEY YOU HAVE MADE SO FAR AND BUY A FRANCHISE OR SOMETHING PAY FOR COLLEGE.

THE OSCAR WAS A ONE TIME DEAL. .

PS. YOU ARE AN INGRATE!

14. Simon tells the truth. He does not want overweight people to win. It is not healthy to be overweight anyway. Jennifer better put the porkchop down and get to the gym before her 15 minutes are over. Piggy!

15. what happened to oscars going to actors and actresses from the past who had talent and earned them??? to put this girl in the same category as some of the all time greats is an insult to them. it seems that in todays world everyone is a star regardless of them having talent or not.
