Jennifer Hudson made a stunning appearance at the 50th Anniversary Special of the American Music Awards, held in Los Angeles on October 6, 2024. The EGOT winner captivated the audience with her striking fashion choice, embracing the contrasting texture trend with a bespoke strapless latex gown designed by La Roxx.
Hudson’s ensemble featured a shiny, full-length latex dress layered over a sheer, long-sleeved top that was adorned with shimmering jewels around the collar. The gown was complemented by tight latex opera gloves and a dramatic floor-sweeping train that connected to the sleeves of the sheer top, creating a breathtaking cape-like effect.
As she graced the red carpet, Hudson accessorized her look with elegant drop earrings from Anayah that perfectly matched her bejeweled collar. She further enhanced her outfit with rings from A. Jaffe and Zydo, and completed the look with sleek satin black pumps, which were barely visible beneath her glamorous gown.
During the ceremony, Hudson took to the stage to perform Whitney Houston’s iconic song, “I Will Always Love You,” which gained immense popularity through the 1992 film “The Bodyguard,” featuring Houston and Kevin Costner. Her heartfelt rendition was a highlight of the evening, showcasing her powerful vocal abilities and paying tribute to the legendary artist.
This event marked another occasion where Hudson showcased a custom creation from La Roxx. Earlier in the year, at the 2024 iHeartRadio Music Awards, she wore a dazzling catsuit that featured sheer fabric and crystal embellishments, paired with a structured leather trench coat, further solidifying her status as a fashion icon.
The 50th anniversary of the American Music Awards celebrated its rich history through a series of new performances and interviews featuring music legends, including Jennifer Lopez and Reba McEntire. The milestone event also showcased never-before-seen archive footage, highlighting the show’s significant influence on pop culture and the memorable moments in music history.
As the night unfolded, Hudson’s red carpet look and powerful performance stood out, reminding everyone of her remarkable talent and unique style. The American Music Awards continue to be a platform for artists to celebrate their achievements and contributions to the music industry, and Hudson’s presence at the event certainly added to its grandeur.
