TAMPA, Fla., Feb. 2 (UPI) -- Jennifer Hudson, her personal life splintered by violence, re-emerged in public Sunday, singing the national anthem at the Super Bowl in Tampa, Fla.
Hudson, who wore a blue jacket over a white suit accessorized with an armful of bracelets and large hoop earrings, offered an emotionally tinged gospel-and-soul version of "The Star-Spangled Banner." She took a deep breath before she started singing and concluded by exhaling, the New York Daily News noted.
