Steamin' Willie Beamen is Dreamin'


"Dreamgirls," adapted from the 1981 Broadway musical based on The Supremes, is the story of a trio of women who go from being back-up singers to being at the top of the pop charts. The film stars some notable A-listers including Jamie Foxx, Beyonce Knowles, and Eddie Murphy (aka Baby-Daddy Spice) who has finally returned from his 10 year stint of doing children's movies.

Also starring in the film, is newcomer to the screen and former American Idolater, Jennifer Hudson. Critics are calling Hudson's performance the best by an American Idol finalist since Justin Guarini in "From Justin to Kelly." In fact, the Oscar buzz surrounding Hudson has already caused Beyonce to pretend to not be jealous of her.

I don't think I'd go see this movie if my name was Jay-Z.
