Jennifer Hudson is totally fangirling over Kelly Rowland!
On Monday’s episode of “The Jennifer Hudson Show,” JHud told the star of “The Curse of Bridge Hollow” that she listened to her group Destiny’s Child when she worked on a cruise ship.
Before she competed on “American Idol,” Jenn played one of the muses in a production of “Hercules” on a Disney cruise.
Not only did Jenn listen to Kelly and her groupmates Beyoncé and Michelle Williams, she had posters of Destiny’s Child plastered on her cabin walls.
“I used to sit and watch YouTube [videos of Destiny’s Child],” Jenn added to Kelly.
Jenn was also a huge fan of the band’s 2001 holiday album, “8 Days of Christmas.”

“Dreamgirls” is also where Jennifer and Kelly first met.
“She looked at me so crazy,” Kelly hilariously recalled about their moment on set.
“I was freaking out,” Jenn revealed. “I used to be a kid, riding around, [listening to] Destiny’s Child.”
“To be able to talk to you, it’s a flex,” Jenn added.

View StoryDuring the interview, Jenn asked Kelly which person she was the most nervous to perform for.
“Muhammed Ali,” Kelly answered. “He asked me to perform for his birthday. So many people came, I was super nervous. I have so much respect. There’s literally a piece in our house of Muhammed Ali.”
For Jenn, the person that made her nervous was Prince.
“Girl, I screamed for him,” Jenn said. “It’s hard with people I admire.”
