At the American Music Awards’ 50th Anniversary special this past weekend, Jennifer Hudson captivated the audience not only with her powerful performance but also with a surprising hairstyle that had fans buzzing.
Although the singer, known for her signature looks, didn’t opt for a drastic new color or cut, many fans believed she had shaved her head entirely—a look that would have suited her, despite the rumors being false.
The event celebrated five decades of the AMAs with legendary artists like Mariah Carey, Nelly, and Nile Rodgers, but fan reactions focused on Hudson’s stunning appearance. Dressed in a sleek, figure-hugging gown, she brought grace to the stage, especially during her introduction of Carey.
Social media quickly lit up with comments, as fans mistook her style for a bald look, with comments like “Not me thinking she went bald although she would look stunning” and “Lord, thank God she didn’t go bald!”
Fans may remember her 2015 short-haired look, which she embraced with a caption reading, “Who needs hair when you’re serving face!” Hudson’s tribute at the AMAs, featuring her rendition of Whitney Houston’s “I Will Always Love You,” was another highlight.
Reflecting on her bond with Houston, Hudson noted, “I doubt there was ever a moment when I was unaware of Whitney.” The night reminded viewers of Hudson’s lasting talent and her continued impact on music.
