Jennifer Hudson Wows On Dancing With The Stars

Jennifer Hudson wowed the live studio audience on last night's Dancing With The Stars results show, performing new song 'Don't Look Down'. Jennifer Hudson, who arrived on stage in an elegant purple gown, also performed her song 'Feeling Good'.

Hudson was backed by the 46 piece orchestra that played on this week's classical themed show. The American Idol contestant followed in the footsteps of Welsh singer Katherine Jenkins, who gained praise for her performance on Monday's show. The 29-year-old is currently promoting her second studio album 'I Remember Me', which hit shelves on 22nd March 2011. The record debuted at number-two on the Billboard 200, selling 165,000 in its first week of release. After Hudson's second performance, the Dancing With The Stars contestants were given the results of this week's elimination vote. Audiences had expected Kirstie Alley to be in danger after having her second mishap in consecutive weeks on Monday's show. However, former boxing champion Sugar Ray Leonard was given the boot after several mediocre performances.

Jennifer Hudson is set to head out on a tour of the U.S. in June, kicking off on the 17th in San Diego. The singer will then play shows in San Diego, Atlanta and Chicago
