JENNIFER HUDSON TO HEADLINE NIGERIAN IDOLS GRAND FINALE!
If everything goes according to plans, Grammy Awards winner and American Idol, Jennifer Hudson, might be the headlining act at the grand finale of the Nigerian Idol holding later this month.
According to sources close to the show’s Nigerian franchisee, Optima Media Group, Hudson has been approached and is ready to visit Nigeria for the first time. “We have concluded all arrangements to make her perform at the idol finals. In fact, organisers of the American Idol are the go-between. So, it is taken for granted that she will be in Nigeria in April,” the source tells E-Punch exclusively.
Noteworthy is that when Hudson, whose vocal range and ability has been compared with the late Whitney Houston, comes to Nigeria, she will share the stage with multiple Grammy Awards nominee; Nigeria’s own Afrobeat star, Femi Kuti. The source says Femi has agreed to perform at the final show. A pointer to this was his presence as guest judge at the Fela tribute night last weekend where he mentored the last three contestants, Mercy, Joe Blue and Stephen Onochie and taught them a trick or two on how to make music of Grammy Awards standard.
ok o..we are waiting...
