UHHHH … whut? People magazine is reporting that Academy Award-winning actress Jennifer Hudson has gone and gotten herself engaged. Firstly, I had no idea that she was even seeing anyone seriously enough to be close to marriage. Secondly, I about fell my ass onto the floor when I learned who her new fiancée is. Did any of y’all watch the VH-1 “romantic competitive” reality TV show I Love New York (which was a spin-off of Flavor of Love, which was a spin-off of Strange Love, which was a spin-off of The Surreal Life)? If so, you might recognize J. Hud‘s new hubby-to-be as the contestant who vied for Tiffany New York Pollard‘s affection. On the show his name was Punk … in real life, apparently, his name is David Otunga:
Jennifer Hudson and boyfriend, David Otunga, have gotten engaged, her rep tells PEOPLE exclusively. “I can confirm that Jennifer got engaged to her boyfriend David on Friday night in L.A.” says the rep. Otunga, who is known as “Punk” from the reality show I Love New York 2, popped the question with a Neil Lane diamond ring on the Dreamgirls Oscar winner’s 27th birthday. The couple, who have been dating less than a year, both hail from Chicago.
I must admit … I’m shocked, y’all. I would’ve thought that J. Hud was worthy of someone better than one of Tiffany Pollard‘s cast-offs. “Dating less than a year” has got trubs written ALL over it. I’m sorry, I’m usually very positive about these sorts of things but … I can only see wreck and ruin in the future for J. Hud and Punk. I mean … really?! No, I just can’t see this one working out. Am I wrong?

I mean seriously… the man made out with New York.. yuck.
He’s too big top wise. He’s gonna live off of her earnings and turn to fat. He’s not tight solid like that football player she was dating. He’s gonna clean house. Her self-esteem must be at an all time low. She’s probably too stupid to get a pre-nup. You can’t blame the punk. It beats working your ass of writing briefs.
Awww Punk was a good guy on the show! I think it will work, congrats to them both!!
I refuse to believe this is true… how can she even consider spending her life with a reject from I Love New York?!?! WTF man??? I loves me some Jennifer, God knows I do… I have the hugest crush on her… but this is destined to end horribly.
Did I mention he probably loves penis more than she does???
She had been engaged prior to this engagement with her hometown love who she had been with for MANY years. I guess fame got to her head
HE WAS ON A REALITY SHOW D@MN WE DON’T KNOW IF HE NICE. STOP FALLIN FOR THAT SH!#!!! ALL WE KNOW FOR SURE IS THIS FOOL IS HUNGRY FOR FAME. HE DOING EVERYTHING HE CAN TO KEEP HIS @$$ IN THE PUBLIC EYE GTFOH. JENNIFER WAS JUST BIG DEALIN ON SOME OLE “DON’T ASK ME ABOUT MY PERSONAL LIFE” BULL… NOW LOOK AT HER DUMB A$$ H3LL THIS THE KINDA FOOLISHNESS YOU SHOULD KEEP TO YO SELF CRAZY GIRL!!!
I just think, shes forgotten were she came from. Before her fame she was soo in love with her first boyfriend, now leaving him for all these other famous people. That is not cool at all. How many people has she dated since her fame? and now shes getting engaged only dating the guy less than a year?! I use to like her, but it seems the fame has gotten to her head. I think she just does all this for extra attention. Whatever works..I guess..
I’m with Julie this guy is so gay, why do you think they call him Punk…. He is definitely a down low brother
THEY ARE SAYIN PUNK IS SO GAY-Y SO WHY R U MAKEIN YOURSELF LOOK BAD B GOING WITH SOMEONE WHO IS GAY THAT YOUR ABOUT TO TURN BUY—–
P.S-BE FOR REAL
PUNK, IF JENNIFER EVER NEED YOU SHE REALLY NEEDS YOU KNOW. PLEASE DO NOT PLAY WITH HER EMOTIONS AT HIS TIME PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!
I THNK THIS IS A GREAT THING AND FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO DONT KNOW…theyre BOTH from Chicago….He graduated pre-med from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign AND ended up going to Harvard. He took a job with the prestigious Sidley Austin law firm. (That’s where President Obama met wife Michelle.) So hes not after Jennifers money or fame as for his fame well hes getting into the WWE yes I said the WWE, because wrestling is one of his passions. I THINK THEY MAKE A GREAT COUPLE…. Otunga was at her side when she was reeling from the murders of her mother, brother and nephew. Jennifer thanked Otunga in her Grammys speech, and sang “You Pulled Me Through.” They both have a lot going for themselves as well as for each other….. im sure they’ll stay together for a life time…..
