It's a poorly kept secret, but the entertainment industry is a tad superficial. Despite being pretty successful as both an actress and a singer, Jennifer Hudson was, until recently, still heavyset by Hollywood's standards. And according to Hudson, even though she was fine with being a "big girl," it wasn't until she dropped some serious weight that things began really picking up.
"You never know you're being discriminated against until you see what you've been deprived of," she says in the latest issue of Self. "Everybody wants you to wear this or put you on the cover of that. Before, my career was great, but since losing weight, I haven't stopped. I have worked every single day of this year... "I'm prouder of my weight loss than my Oscar! I hope it has inspired people."
