Jennifer Hudson Goes Back to Work

Six weeks after the tragic deaths of her mother, brother and nephew, singer Jennifer Hudson is getting back to work.

The "Dream Girls" star is scheduled to begin filming a music video next week for her hit, "If This Isn't Love," J Records confirms to AP. Jennifer was due to film the video before the tragedies, and has been in seclusion since the murders. Hudson's estranged brother-in-law, William Balfour, has been charged with the killings.

Last week, the Oscar winner was nominated for four Grammy awards for her self-titled debut CD. When news of the nominations broke, Hudson released a statement saying, "It's been a childhood dream of mine to release an album, so to receive four Grammy nominations is truly a blessing. I am extremely honored and humbled by the nominations."

Dear Jennifer,
What a brave and religious woman you are. A true inspiration to many. I know your mother, brother and nephew look down upon you with pride and care. Keep going for your dreams, don’t let anything stop you! If this horrible tragedy couldn’t do it, nothing can.
May God bless you and give U peace.
Love, Sandie

Jennifer, I am one of your biggest fans. When I seen that you were returning to work I was uplifted. I understand that this journey will be a hard one but the answer is to stay prayed up. God will never leave you or forsake you. You are definitely in my prayers and I wish you much love and success. May God give you the strength to endure during this hard time. I feel like I have been knowing you forever. You are so down to earth. You have many fans and remember that you are a blessing to many. With Love

I check the net everyday and today was a good day.When I read jhud was ready to come back to us It felt good.Everybody handle things in different ways.I know your mom was and still is your world.She is still here looking,holding,smiling,laughing,and crying,with you.Your mom know you are a strong person and you have to keep on keeping on.Im not going to say I know what you are going threw but I feel your pain. When I 1st heard a friend called me cause she know we go way back to idol(i remember I wouldn’t talk to anyone when it was on tv)and I’m a big fan from the start. I said no that’s not true and my heart dropped.Jennifer I tell my friends that chic can sang about tooth paste,a ironing board anything and it sounds good she can throw down.(they laugh at me but say thats true)so you have to keep on giving us that big voice.I love you like a sis jhud.

Jennifer i wish the Best in dealing with the lost of you r closet family members! Keep your head up and continue your career as you know your mother would have wanted you to do . I know this is a very hard time for you i’ve been there! I haven’t lost my mother but i lost my husband to a tragedy an i was left behind with a small infant only 5 months of age. Hard and people just didn’t make sense to me at all.I secluded myself as well. BUt live and learn. My God i know your mother probably was your motivation but you will indeed have her looking over you i know you may be thinking all kind of things right about now.I know ii did! But keep busy continue your dream. Ya know i always remember someone telling me when i asked why, how can that happen , how can someone be so cruel to another. I was always thought not to question the lord! That just confuses the hell out of me more ! Because thats torcha for real not only to the one that no longer here but to the one remaining in everday life. Anyway i won’t keep you but i felt like you were my best friend or cousin someone really close i wish i was able to speak to that was my converstaion girl for weeks me and a friend have being keeping up with all the feedback. Hope all is well ,don’t lose focus pray to be stronger he wil se you through! MELISSA From New Orleans, La I love your New CD it is off the chain!
