Jennifer Holliday & Jennifer Hudson duet: 'And I Am Telling You...'



Waaaaaait. Waaaaait.

Original Tony Award winning 'Dreamgirl' Jennifer Holliday and Oscar winning 'Dreamgirl' Jennifer Hudson duet on "And I'm Telling You I'm Not Going..."

I hyperventilated watching this. The most excited performance I ever saw on Broadway was the original production of DREAMGIRLS. Almost 30 years ago I hyperventilated through the entire show. Complete brilliance. And Jennifer Holliday brought the house down. DOWN.

I really enjoyed the movie of DREAMGIRLS a lot. And Jennifer Hudson was terrific.

Not to take sides, but you have to give it to Jennifer Holliday by a nose here. She's still got it, and still giving it. She leaves it all out on the stage. Still.

Wow. Lucky audience.
