Hollywood walk of fame is for Stars who are truly talented not just famous for what they do. That's why it wasn't much of a shock when last week Jennifer Hudson became the first American Idol alum to earn a star on The Hollywood Walk of Fame.
The Academy Award and Grammy winner was accompanied by her husband and son as she accepted the award on Wednesday, Nov. 13. Music legend and record executive Clive Davis was on hand to honor the Season 3 alum while comparing her to two iconic vocalists.
"She may have come in 7th place in the third season of American Idol, but by 2010 The Los Angeles Times had her in the top three of the greatest contestants in the history of the show," he said. "I have been privileged in over 25 years with two of the greatest voices of all time: Aretha Franklin and Whitney Houston. I never thought I'd hear another voice to compare and yet staring me in the face was a new voice that did compare. It literally sent shivers up my spine."
