Jennifer Hudson to perform on American Idol? Yes, Jennifer Hudson will be taping a performance on Wednesday, March 25th in front of the American Idol studio audience after the live broadcast has ended.

Grammy and Oscar award-winning actress Jennifer Hudson, 27, will perform on American Idol this week, although FOX has not confirmed the performance. Jennifer’s Idol performance will be aired at a later date.

Past American Idol finalist, Jennifer Hudson, will most likely perform a song from her self-titled debut CD, which won the Grammy for best R&B album in February, but there is yet no word on what song Jennifer Hudson will perform.

The ticket voucher for the show says “the second taping of Wednesday is the LIVE performance show with special performances by Jennifer Hudson and Ruben Studdard.”

Wednesday’s Idol performance will be Hudson’s first time on the American Idol stage following the murders of her mother, brother and 7-year-old nephew. Hudson’s Grammy performance of “You Pulled Me Through” was simply astounding, as was Hudson’s Super Bowl performance singing the National Anthem.

Jennifer Hudson, a finalist on American Idol’s third season, will begin her first national tour on March 31, along with Robin Thicke.

Jennifer Hudson will also appear on Thursday’s (March 26) Ellen DeGeneres Show to perform her single, “If This Isn’t Love” LIVE, and I can’t help but wonder if the song Jennifer Hudson will perform on American Idol isn’t “If This Isn’t Love” too. We’ll just have to wait and see.
