Jennifer Hudson On Idol: Mariah Carey Rules, Nicki Minaj & Keith Urban Are 'Awkward'


Watch out for that bus, Keith & Nicki — this girl is looking to throw you under it!!
Jennifer Hudson visited the set of Live with Kelly & Michael this morning, and she couldn’t help but share her disappointment with this year’s American Idol judges!
A former contestant herself, the Dreamgirl went so far as to say Mariah Carey was the only one of them who can sing!
J-Hud said:

├óΓé¼┼ôIt├óΓé¼Γäós taken a bit to get used to the new judges. I come from American Idol, so I├óΓé¼Γäóm used to seeing Simon, Paula and Rand… It├óΓé¼Γäós kind of awkward for me to see it with new judges… I├óΓé¼Γäóm happy that [Mariah Carey]├óΓé¼╦£s there because she├óΓé¼Γäós a singer, so she knows what to expect, how to judge, even the position that the kids are in when they├óΓé¼Γäóre auditioning.”

Whoa!
It’s one thing to slam Nicki Minaj — the multi-platinum artist is more famous for rapping than singing — but how can you diss Keith Urban like that?
He has one of the best voices in country music!!!
We love Jennifer, but perhaps she’s being overly harsh?!
