Grammy winner Jennifer Hudson sung her heart out during her performance last night at the Netflix screening of A Wizard of Oz. Earlier in day she spoke to People about what drives her to be the best mommy she can possibly be: Her own mother, who was fatally shot last October.

The impromptu interview, which took place at Central Park’s Rumsey Playfield, is enough to move anyone to tears.

“I think she was a great example of being a mother, so when [David Daniel Jr., 7 weeks] first got home, I was like, ‘Everything I do will be out of love,’” Hudson said of her late mother and new son. “That’s what drives me in the middle of the night when I’m knocked out sleeping and he wakes up. I’m like ‘Oh, I can’t get up.’ But the love is what drives me. Out of love I can do everything.”

Jennifer has certainly experienced more in her 28 years than many people do in a lifetime. We’re so glad she has managed to overcome her grief enough to be a fabulous mother for her beautiful baby, who coincidently is already expressing an interest in music. (Celebrity Baby Blog)
