Jennifer Hudson recently sat down for a chat and got candid about the personal realizations she reached after taking on the character of Aretha Franklin.

The actor wore her heart on her sleeve during an interview with InStyle magazine and got candid over the lessons her role as Aretha Franklin left her with.
