Jennifer Hudson Wins Best Supporting Actress Motion Picture - Golden Globes 2007

[@Alaaniss]

It was great that she dedicated the award to Florence Ballard. My respects to J Hudson for doing so. That shows a great actress and a great person.

[@DavidRichardson95]

Clooney presented Jennifer Hudson with the Golden Globe and the Oscar. Crazy.

[@nicholasmorales24]

Right? How come no one talking about this?

[@tinamarie2484]

Isn't something like whoever wins the previous year presents to the other person the following year? (The actors present to the actresses and vice versa)

[@raysmith8364]

How I was just about to say that lol

[@kashmeremajesty2163]

Jennifer showing love to Florence Ballard was the sweetest thing to me. I loved how she shown love to Jennifer Holiday with one award and Florence Ballard with the other and also got the chance to sing with Jennifer Holiday. Beautiful

[@dondizm2678]

We love you Florence Ballard. Thank you Jennifer for dedicating this to her!

[@LEGENDPantherJennings]

thank you Jennifer for thinking Of Flo Ballard that was beautiful

[@LEGENDPantherJennings]

Dondizm! That WAS beautiful

[@ronnykmarshall]

I cried my ass off when she dedicated it to Flo.

[@seerpou]

EGOT WINNER!!!! and i love that she gave the respect to Florence Ballard. my heart breaks for her and her story, which was given a 'happier ending' / justice in Dreamgirls

[@jensenbell]

I will never forget Florence Ballard. Her heat stopped at just 32 years old...I hope the world comes to appreciate what she was... and could have been.

[@manuelorozco7760]

Jennifer truly deserved her Golden Globe and Oscar for playing Effie! An iconic role was recreated that for 35 years has inspired generations of African American divas. Also, very thoughtful of Jennifer to dedicate her award to the real Supreme that inspired her character Florence Ballard who's been deceased for 40 years now. It's surreal that George Clooney presented Jennifer's two golden statues!

[@DetroitLives313]

Florence Ballard will never be forgotten! Thank you Jennifer.

[@manuelorozco7760]

+DetroitLives313 Florence was the inspiration for the role of Effie.

[@DetroitLives313]

Manuel Orozco Yes she was even in the Original Broadway play. Did you know that in the play Effie was suppose to die after scene 1, but they re-wrote it to have her survive triumphantly.

[@manuelorozco7760]

DetroitLives313 I have known that for almost a decade and no Florence wasn't in the original production. You were thinking of Jennifer Holiday

[@manuelorozco7760]

DetroitLives313 Besides Florence did in 1978 five years before Dreamgirls Broadway debut

[@DetroitLives313]

Manuel Orozco No, Florence died on February 22 , 1976. Dreamgirls, the Broadway play opened in 1981.

[@ryanjohnson3055]

It’s Beyoncé crying for me they both went through something that was life changing for the both of them I’m even glad after all these years they still have a bond

[@superstarq5585]

Beyonce was happy for her she had tears in her eyes

[@raffaojeda]

Florence Ballard was the lady in the supremes, i mean she was the one who started all!!

[@LEGENDPantherJennings]

amen I agree

[@LEGENDPantherJennings]

raffa ojeda IKR & She WAS Very Sexy

steveb1164 she was

[@LEGENDPantherJennings]

I agree she was the one cwho started it all

[@LEGENDPantherJennings]

Yes she was & is

[@Dion_Mustard]

Florence Ballard was a beautiful soul who deserved so much more. x

[@alidedereal]

Just found out Florence Ballard never got the good ending Effie had in Dreamgirls. So sad :(

[@thisisobii]

we love you Flo, rest in perfect peace in God's hands

[@erickdasilva5424]

beyoncé was crying. this was so cute. hud and bey supporting each other.

[@tastyfreeze111]

This girl held her own with this cast of heavy weights......

[@davidao2551]

How can people say this movie isn't based off The Supremes when Jennifer Hudson even dedicated awards to Florence Ballard

[@Jrock_Loves_Acting]

I know this video is super Old, BUT JENNIFER HUDSON DESERVED that AWARD! #DREAMGIRLS #EFFIE

[@reyf105]

A lot of people hate on hudson but they are wrong not only is she a great talented singer, but as an actress aswell in her first and great performance in dreamgirls..

[@SoulKnightKing]

I love how she thought that day that winning a Golden Globe was beyond her ability to dream big....15 years later and she officially became an EGOT.

[@PenaltyKillah]

Shoutout to Ava DuVernay way back then! She actually worked on the campaign for Dreamgirls

[@Chance.Wilson]

I just noticed he presented her the award both times

[@kevinlin4027]

Rinko Kikuchi is so adorable~~!!!

[@lakishascott2132]

Jen and flo 🎉🎉

[@macolmayllonrivas6151]

Florence Ballard will be always remenberd

[@vistalette]

I hope that Diana Ross saw this ceremony : RIP Flo Ballard

[@jaqenhghar2970]

[@raralala4821]

Why does everyone want Beyoncé to be salty? Can't she just be happy for Jennifer? Smh

[@ashleyfordham-harper4807]

J. Hudson, we love that you dedicated your Golden Globe to the late Florence Ballard, but just don't read the comments from those who asked how she didn't get a fair chance!! They might wanna THINK about that. Thank you.

[@JesusRodriguez-hm1fs]

FLORENCE BALLARD, la MEJOR de las Supremes.

[@anjelheaven]

She is so beautiful!

[@TheJazzlady40]

great young talent

[@ntala]

you have no idea what this does for my confidence! lol, i remember cracking up at that part

[@AddwongProductions]

@zuzahar It's because George won the Golden Globe and the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor the year before. Tradition calls for the winner to return the following year to present the same award to the other gender.

[@LEGENDPantherJennings]

I love how She Thanked Flo Ballard

[@margaritaperla]

CATE BLANCHETT IS LUMINOUS

[@dublstuf]

@zuzahar -... because he won the male counterpart of those awards the previous year.

[@amyclarke41]

excellent speech

[@Nikolaika77]

The winner of the previous year of the opposite gender always presents the award. For example When Meryl Streep won in 2012 colin firth presented it to her because he won best actor the year before. In this case George Clooney won for supporting actor for Syrianna and he is presenting it to her.

[@alfredamondy9948]

FLO STARTED IT ALL RIP SUPREMES

[@Alaaniss]

@southernbrooklyngal She´s got the looks to play Mrs Ballard but don´t think the voice is a little similar... don´t know... I think is a good start.

[@TheNarutodbzss19]

Silence fatback

[@southernbrooklyngal]

@Alaaniss how do you about faith evans playing florence in a upcoming film?

[@minnesotajohn29]

@zuzahar Not really-Clooney won the award the year before for Best Supporting Actor at the Globes & Oscars, and they usually have the previous year's winner present the opposite gender award.

[@gueromex3056]

miss Florence Ballard ….you is terrific! 😢 supreme

[@mexia23]

I just wanted to see if Beyonce was lookin salty lol

[@kittybookitty]

+mexia23 That's the only reason I came to this video. lol. You know she was.

[@mexia23]

Yep. lmao

[@sdtme9241]

kittybookitty she wasn't she looked genuinely happy and emotional. Those girls spent a lot of time together on set and formed a bond

[@raralala4821]

Why does everyone want Beyoncé to be salty? Can't she just be happy for Jennifer?

[@niamacathey1950]

I love how men look for the worse in women 🙄🤦🏾‍♀️😂😂 gay much

[@parkermudsen1063]

It’s 2021, and I’m just now realizing Clooney handed Jennifer both the Golden Globe and Oscar that year. Coincidence? 🤷‍♂️

[@leonkane8570]

Now you can call it a tradition, the previous winner of the opposite sex in the category to give the award to the new one. Unless they're unavaileable, I suppose

[@ayzax14]

@otrebla9700 Emily Watson wasn't nominated. Do you mean Emily Blunt?

[@raysmith8364]

Wow why did she mention Ava

[@daffyduckfan4478]

Florence Ballard voice was tons stronger than Beyonce you hear Beyonce sing you can hear some of Florence Ballard

[@jaqenhghar2970]

a young Florence Ballard even looked like Beyonce.. you'd almost think she's either Beyonce's lost long grandmother OR Flo reincarnated.

[@JamesJones-zq7pc]

@@jaqenhghar2970 Beyonce looks more like Tammy Tyrell than Florence.

[@rayzee_roland]

She never acknowledged beyonce ?

[@1asheler]

Yep, but she'll never have one. So sad.

[@jaylene.turner6524]

Florence and Mary were much better singers than Diana. Diana just got in the boss’ (Berry Gordy) pants to get ahead.

[@Bananadiva1]

I couldn't have said it better myself 👍🏻

[@Aswinishere]

Beyoncé got owned on this one! No offence, B!

[@kobi5977]

Beyoncé is so bitter she would never be accepted as an actress.

[@tashW7092]

She is not a great actress

[@Bananadiva1]

That's because she's a pitiful actress.

where the fuck is abigail breslin??

Adriana Barraza

[@latelyThinking123]

oh beyonce and her crocodile tears lol

[@thewizboy]

Wait, How did Florence never get a chance ? She went from the slum ghetto to seeing places and living beyond what any of us could ever imagine. So how the Fk was she not given a fair chance ? She went through some crap like we all do, but am I suppose to feel sorry about all the great things she was able to benefit from while it was happening ? Girl bye ! 👋

[@aintnothingliketheoldskool]

Please hush you immature brat go sit and read a book you toxic Diana Ross Stan.

[@ashleyfordham-harper4807]

Diana sung lead, while Florence was stuck doing background!!! Whatever Florence wanted, it was given to Diana!! 😢

[@thewizboy]

@Ashley Fordham-Harper oh please ! That's a total cop-out. That's show business and only the strong survive ! I'm asking what "fair chance" was she not given ? Florence met Kings and Queens and lived a life most of us will NEVER know, so how did she not get a fair chance ? If we're talking about a music career then that would be incorrect as well because Florence put out a solo album of her own that bombed, so your reply is beyond stupid to think she was never given a fair chance. Florence also benefitted from being a part of the Supremes , GTFOH

[@zacharymalone3880]

Here goes a angry gay man 🤦🏻‍♂️

[@ashleyfordham-harper4807]

​@@thewizboy Whatever GTFOH means, I don't want to know, just like everyone else!!

[@KivonD1992]

@latelyThinking123 Lmao I know right!

[@KrueMann1992]

rinko kikuchi should of won. Im so sick of these awards going with the popular vote and not the true talent of the bunch

[@jaqenhghar2970]

just like in politics, these awards needs an electoral voting system.

[@austinteutsch]

Let's get fucking real here and now. She deserved to win both the GG and the AA, BUT to not thank American Idol for opening that huge and heavy door to fame and fortune is a slap in the face. She'd still be singing on Sundays if not for that program, cheesy as it may be.

[@b.w.g6871]

Beyoncé was stunning there. However I personally think Kikuchi’s and Barazza’s performances were better than Jen’s

[@freedom584]

Why didn't you thank the cast and Beyonce???

[@ashleyfordham-harper4807]

She said everyone in this room!!!
