❝She should not be there!❞ some retorted, ❝she's not even country!❞ While some applauded Hudson's performance and encouraged a country album, many others did not appreciate Hudson's appearance. No surprises given the backlash Beyoncé received for performing there five years ago in 2016. During the show, Jennifer performed Aretha Franklin’s ❝Night Life❞ and ❝You Are My Sunshine❞ with Chris Stapleton, in tribute to the late Queen of Soul, whom she portrayed in the biopic ❝Respect.❞ Apparently, Aretha did a few country-esque songs back in the day, and Hudson was there to sing one of those as a tribute. As she made her presence felt on the red carpet, she wore a sheer lace Dolce & Gabbana catsuit and skirt combo with a daring slit and dramatic train. She coordinated the look with fingerless gloves and completed it with silver shoes. Jen has had many Dolce & Gabbana moments this year, and this one doesn't particularly give off sensational but the colour on her looks gorgeous. As for the argument about her being there...

I love country music and the artists on the CMA’s, however, neither Jennifer Hudson or Aretha Franklin were country and did not sing country songs. This “woke-ism” was forced onto the show by ABC/Disney. The “afro” hair song by Mickey Guyton was abominable and ruined her career.

@CountryMusic this is why Country Music Industry isn't as popular as it was years ago. Jennifer Hudson song wasn't near Country music....click off.
