HRC Supporter Jennifer Hudson Releases New LGBT Anthem



The Oscar Winner is doubling down on her support for the LGBT community with her latest pop hit, “I Still Love You.”

The video, which dropped this morning, features a father’s hesitant and emotional decision to attend his gay son’s wedding.

“I just think the concept was just powerful to go with such a positive song. It’s about love and everyone should have love and have the right to love who they want to love,” Jennifer told MTV News. “So I thought it would be powerful to take a concept like trying to find your equality in love no matter who you love.”

The Grammy and Academy Award winner is a part of Turn It Up for Change, the W Hotel’s marriage equality campaign to support HRC’s work.

Not a Hillary supporter but I love Jennifer Hudson. Home town girl!

I think she was our Pride parade grand Marshall a few years ago

Oh I am SO glad to hear that!

I actually refuse to use her 3 initials because of that. THE HRC is having to use its full name because of the confusion

Yet it still didn't click .
