Airing happened last night on VH1. In cased you missed the full episode, here you go.
about this episode via the press release:
This episode of "Behind The Music" will trace Jennifer Hudson's humble beginnings of growing up with her close knit family on the south side of Chicago to her early elimination from "American Idol." After "Idol," Jennifer found fame with a starring role in "Dream Girls" that earned her every major movie award Hollywood could bestow including an Academy Award®. Just after becoming engaged to the love of her life and releasing her self-titled debut album, Jennifer was devastated by the unspeakable tragedy of losing her mother, brother and nephew in a horrifying triple murder. For the very first time, Jennifer talks candidly about overcoming such a painful time in her life and her triumphant return to the public eye on the night she won her first Grammy® Award. Now a mother herself, this episode features exclusive footage of Jennifer interacting with her son David Jr. as she strives to raise her son in the same loving environment her mother created for her. In addition to Jennifer, "Behind The Music" has interviewed Jennifer's sister Julia, Randy Jackson, fiance David Otunga, Jamie Foxx, Queen Latifah, Whitney Houston, Ne-Yo, Robin Thicke, Clive Davis and many others.

Jennifer Hudson In Talks About Winnie Mandela Biopic Role
via Roger Friedman from The Hollywood Reporter - Show Biz 411
Oscar and Grammy winner Jennifer Hudson’s supercharged appearance last night at Denise Rich’s annual Angel Ball gave rise to talk about her next project.
Hudson, who won the Academy Award for “Dreamgirls” and was so good in “The Secret Life of Bees,” is now rumored to be in talks for an indie biopic about South African leader Winnie Mandela. Winnie was a winner during her years as wife of Nelson Mandela during his 27-years of illegal incarceration. But in later years she lost her way, getting into legal trouble and becoming a pariah. She and Mandela have been divorced for some time.
Meanwhile, Hudson’s two-song cameo at the Angel Ball — held at Downtown Cipriani — was sensational. Introduced by Clive Davis, Hudson sang her signature hit, “And I’m Telling You I’m Not Going” with just piano accompaniment. The audience — which included lots of celebs and big name players — rewarded her with whoops and hollers and a standing ovation.
