A new day, Jennifer Hudson has opened a weight loss centre in her home city of Chicago. The 30-year-old singer and actress, who already boasts an Oscar and a Grammy to her name, beamed as she declared 'The Weight Watchers Jennifer Hudson Centre' officially open for business, today.
The Dreamgirls star, who has lost over 80 pounds, is a spokeswoman for the company. Images of her newly honed physique adorn the walls of the building, which is nestled on Chicago's South Side in her hometown. Looking stunning in fitted, ruffled dark grey dress and high-heeled studded black Louboutin boots she said: 'I never thought I would make it to have my own centre, I'm so honoured to be here and see this day.
But the new business venture also has another special, and personal, significance to Hudson, whose album I Remember Me, is out now. Weight Watchers had pledged to donate a portion of the centre's revenue to a foundation that Hudson co-founded in honor of her late nephew, Julian King.
Former American Idol finalist Hudson won a Grammy for her self-titled album and an Oscar for her role in Dreamgirls and she is engaged to wrestler David Otunga, 31, with whom she has a two-year-old son David Daniel Otunga Jr. with.
Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel, who also attended the ceremony, branded Hudson 'Chicago's ambassador to the world at large.
