This woman has got to kidding those clothes are way to tight for that body. Is she getting ready for bed or is the top a slip or what is the deal with this bad choice she has no taste in clothing for her figure. HIRE SOME ONE FOR HELP PLEASE>

we see she is desperate, she was a big girl when she was younger and this man look good to her so man has she hit the jack pot. Wrong she has a gay man who was dissed by a manly looking NEW YORK reality tramp. Do the name Star Jones Reynolds and Terry remind you of anything. Gay men with straight women end up leaving them after there 15 minutes of fleeting fame go on to other gay men. This man is clearly a greasy headed 1980’s hair wearing gay man. Jenifer Hudson no one ever heard of until American Idol is fooling herself with this joker. But she will see have her call Star and Terry for tips on how to deal with a gay man posing as a straight one. lol she will find out soon.

Don’t do it Jennifer. Take it slow..Its too soon At least date a little longer. Too many divorces are happening because people are rushing into marriage. I feel pressed upon my heart to tell you to ask God to guide you as you make your mate selection. I’m not saying he’s not the one, but I’m just saying to take it slow and let God lead you.

The 1st 2 lady’s that have responded needs to stop hating. Why are you talking about her clothes, or saying that shes desperate? Sounds to me like both of you need to get a life. David and Jennifer are happy, I say more power to them for seeing what they liked and going after it. At the end of the of the day it’s about love. Congrats to the newly engaged couple. I also send my condolences and prayers to Jennifer and her family in there time of tradegy.

It’s funny when jealous people post messages. They don’t know how stupid and pathetic they sound, but is funny! They are both into entertaining and both make big money so I think they are pretty equally matched that way. It not like some old boyfriend is trying to get her after he figured out she has cash. It must be genuine.

Ya’ll are some haters! I think that Jennifer is a GORGEOUS woman! She was GORGEOUS when she was BIG and she is DEFINITELY a KNOCK OUT NOW! So I think that Punk is lucky to have snatched her up! And if she is in love, she is in love! And who is NEW YORK to diss anyone! God knows I watched her show for a good LAUGH, but she’s NO Halle to diss anyone! (LMBO) Congrats Jennifer and David! You and your family are in my prayers!

Jennifer, with all due respect, I think you should read TD Jakes new book “Before I say I do”. Marriage is a big step. Don’t get caught up in it feels good.

I agree partially with Michelle. No hate intended. It is what it is. This guy was all over New York, whether it was for publicity or other reasons. Now all of a sudden, JHudson is his soul mate. Please, he professed soooo much love for New York, from locking lips to only God knows what else. (GROSSS) We all know she’s a smoker and kissed everything and everone under the sun. Yuck! Jennifer needs to really seek God and make sure he’s the one that God sends and not what she’s found for herself. Anyone who really knows God, knows that he will give you the man that’s best for you. She has to be patient and take her time. Marriage is a huge committment and the Star Jones comment. How true. This guy knew what he was doing. Saw someone with weight issues, and knew that in society’s critical eye, everyone would think she hit the jackpot. Hmmm! The devil is a liar. And so is this Punk character named David. Hope she get a pre-nup so when he finishes getting the elevation he’s looking for, he’ll leave with what he came with and not at her expense. I wish her well and my condolences go out to her and her family. I hope this will cause her to atleast re-evaluate this relationship and put this marriage on hold until after she renews her mind and takes time to heal from grieving. Hopefully she will not do the opposite. Another weak moment, a bigger opportunity for this little weasel to move in on her vulnerableness. Kepp her in your prayers all.

Under no circumstance, do not ignore any flags you may see. Keep your eyes and ears opened. Don’t make any hasty decisions and allow the Lord to lead you on this.
May the peace of God that passeth all understanding be with you. My prayers are with at this time.

Well dating is awesome, but take your time, steady, then in a year or so, then make that move. As far as the recent events in your life, you are in my prayers. I am VERY VERY sorry for these unfornature events. May GOD’s love comfort you.
October 27th, 2008 at 9:39 pm
Don’t do it baby, the man is gay. Take your time,you are just now beginning to enjoy what God has given you. This man is looking for a meal ticket. Please don’t do it!
October 27th, 2008 at 10:07 pm
To the young lady who responded the first two times(Michelle),please stop it!! Your grammar and english is horrible. Please work on it before responding to anything else. On to the more important issue, Jennifer we are praying for you and your family. Oh and congrats to you on your future marriage.
October 27th, 2008 at 10:17 pm

October 27th, 2008 at 11:06 pm

Jennifer, my heart goes out to you and your family. I can only imagine what you are going through right now. This is alot for anyone to ever handle in their lifetime. Just try to be strong and stay focused at the same time.
October 28th, 2008 at 11:20 am
Jennifer, your outfit is very becoming of your figure the way you coorinated the suit together it’s very nice.
But I do agree with the other young lady, date him all four seasons get to know him in the spring and winter as the weather changes men do too. I’m sure you have been praying asking that GOD show you the way, he will give you the answer, you just have to go with your gut feelings.
My prayers are with you right now because I can not say that I understand how you feel, hearing about what has happen to your family, May God touch you and heal you doing this time.
October 28th, 2008 at 4:32 pm
Pray Jennifer, you are in a vulnerable moment with tragedies of your family. If you decide, please get a PreNupt.
October 28th, 2008 at 6:30 pm
No hate just truth; THE DUDE IS GAY!! sorry!!
November 1st, 2008 at 7:20 am
My husband and I dated for 3 months and have been married now for 25+ years. Commitment requires work and marriage is a commitment. Also put God first and you will make the right choices. May God keep you in your time of despair.

Jennifer should really slow down with this major decision. She’s got a lot going on for herself, her looks, her talent, her career. Honestly, I would question how desperately he supposedly wanted to be with New York and now he gives Jennifer a ring after a matter of months. She should just get to know him very slowly! He’s really pushy for publicity. Jennifer can have anyone she wants so she should really just take her time. I think she looks fabalous in the white dress, and there’s nothing wrong with curves. Also, I would really question her fiance’s sexuality, he looks gay.

First, of all there is nothing wrong with her outfit. Jennifer is a fabulous lady, and she is beautiful. Jennifer is a smart young lady. She knows what she want for her life in a man. David is also a very smart and wonderful man. He is not gay. The man is very educated and intelligent. David knows how to treat a lady, and Jennifer is very happy.
October 25th, 2009 at 3:31 am
I think Jennifer looks WONDERFUL, and most of all HAPPY. We should be happy for her.
As for David , there is nothing you could say on here to convince me he is gay. That sounds like lot of sour grapes, IMO.
My husband and I met on a BLIND date, we were engaged in two weeks, and married one month and a day later. That was 27 years ago, along with two beautiful daughters to show for that.
Leave them alone, and let them be HAPPY, for God’s sake!!
Stranger things have happened.
Best of luck to the three of them. What a nice family.
