Well Barack Obama didn't actually call up the former American Idol Winner, but his people called her people and said they wanted her for the Democratic Convention. As Jennifer Hudson's publicist reveals to People Magazine: "His reps called and said we'd love for you to sing the anthem on Thursday." She added, "She's thrilled and excited. It's a tremendous honor."
Thursday is also the day that the nominees will speak at the 2008 Democratic Convention. The convention which is taking place in Denver, is keeping mum about it until the "Official Schedule" is released.
Back in June Hudson has revealed to E! Online:
"I'm so proud and excited for him [Barack],". She continued, "I haven't gotten a call from them yet, but he does have my support." This is perfect timing seeing as her debut album is due out on September 30th.
