J-Hud and the magical appearing pockets
So, a lot has been said about Jennifer Hudson, her general level of hipness right now, her Best Supporting win for Dreamgirls (I still say it was rigged), and most recently, her outfits that she wore to the Academy Awards. We've all agreed that the Elvira space bolero was a misguided choice, and we've all agreed that the silver dress she changed into later was a million times better and that she should have worn it on the carpet instead of the brown job.
But speaking of the brown job, why hasn't anyone yet mentioned the POCKETS?!? And more specifically, the fact that she has her HANDS IN HER POCKETS in just about every photo?
Speaking as a somewhat Rubenesque girl myself, surely she should know what we all know: never, never put your hands in your pockets, even if they are super comfy and funky and you just want to get out a TicTac. NO, Jennifer. It adds about 4 extra metres across your hips, and that's if you're lucky. On a bad day, with an unfortunate dress, the fabric will stretch and pull over your thighs and everyone will think: "Why does she have her damn hands in her pockets? No favours being done THERE".
So, I think she just may have managed to get away with this one. People are forgiving: it's her first go up the carpet, first big flashbulb moment, and I hear that she was persuaded into wearing this dress by one of her stylists. Plus the dress has lots of fabric there to minimise the pulling and shape-losing.
So maybe she had no pocketal choice, but I still say that just because you are pocketly-endowed, no need to keep thy hands stuffed in there for all eternity. Maybe she just forgot to get her nails done.
