According to Star Magazine, Oscar winner Jennifer Hudson has called off her engagement to wrestler David “Punk” Otunga. Who didn’t see that one coming?
He loved her when she was thick but, due to her low self esteem, Jennifer couldn’t love herself enough to lose weight in moderation, through dieting and exercise. Instead, she chose to lose weight drastically through gastric bypass surgery (allegedly), and now she’s lost her man.
From Star Magazine:
After a three-year engagement, Jennifer Hudson has abandoned plans to walk down the aisle.
The American Idol alum, 30, and WWE star David Otunga – who have a 2-year-old son, David jr. – are on the outs, clashing over Jennifer’s career obsession, commitment issues and reluctance to have more children.
“They were going to tie the knot in August in Jennifer’s hometown of Chicago… but it’s not going to happen,” an insider reveals.

What???? Did she “change” on him when she lost the weight?
“After a three-year engagement,”
THIS says it all. IJS
for some reason I saw this coming…I never saw “the real thing” with them…
I thought the story was he wasn’t willing to sing a pre-nup????? Too bad. I liked them
I co-sign Ohpretty. Engaged for 3 years? Me and hubby were engaged for less than 3 weeks
Punk didn’t want skinny Jennifer.
OH PRETTY.. Keep it KWUTE
How you doing doll :wave:
Im sad for this turn of events… He has been down witn her through some things… Unlike the other made for tv couples, I was really hoping things would work out for them
ITS A NEW DAWNNNNN……..ITS A NEW DAYYYYYYYYYYY
This whole story seems as if Star Magazine and Sandra took a little info made a hell of a lot of assumptions embellished some other ish and ran with it.
the story is full of speculation

Come here david I’ll marry you
leave that Zero for this hero 

yea I’m going no need in sending me there
and I don’t believe shat about him not wanting “skinny” Jennifer…I think it is plain and obvious…he was with her for what it was when they first got together…he was there for her when the fam got killed, she had a baby to soothe the pain, and the relationship ran its course…he wouldn’t sign a pre-nup because there’s nothing else for him to be interested in BESIDES her money and success…

OhPretty says: Someone has that snapper
Already lol…..mostly because we won a contest. Got married at halftime at a Dallas Mavericks game. Very short notice but if i had to plan a wedding we still would’ve done it within 6 months. no need in dragging it out
@ Fe.. I heard her wouldnt sign a preup too
*he*
Is Today Breakup Monday?
@ Cha – Great and you? Is she a friend of the blog (Jen)? Let’s keep it 100 here the minds of SOME men, women who look like the old Jennifer are assumed to have low self esteem therefore a man who looks like ‘Punk’ getting with her = a meal ticket. Especially since he’s a supposed Ivy League-educated professional who abandoned a career for a hobby. Simply a man who played his role. If it’s true he refused to sign a prenup…. Again, these are assumptions
so since he aint gonna sign the repup, does thvis mean he’s gonna try and “federline” her?
Po’ lil Tink Tink. Y’all can pick whicha one-a them y’all want to be “Tink”.
And
@ Hony,who’s pretty baby you done stole in your gravi?

And Although I’m a Advocate of Being COMPLETELY JADED regarding Marriage… I NEVER Ever understood Long & Prolonged Engagements
I don’t understand for the life of me why she would commit to marrying this man.
NY (Flavor of Love) said it best “He is an opportunist and my 3rd eye is telling me he don’t like my kind.”
Gay rumors always floated around him. And I beg to argue he saw her as a fat golden ticket. He didn’t want her anymore because she got smarter and her self-esteem increased when she dropped the weight.
He didn’t want to sign a prenuptial agreement which is always a prerequisite about your love for a person when money is concerned. Does she look like a cash cow (well maybe before).
I don’t blame Jennifer and am extremely happy she didn’t walk down the aisle without protecting her finances. Look at what happen for Heather Mill one leg and all)
If he any law sense, if he been living with her for over a year, has mail at the address, umm he is entitled to sum of that , but yean here it from me
@ mrsloveleigh – That’s so cool. I wanted to do something different/adventurous like skydiving but Mister said hail naw…you trying to make off with my signing bonus woman?!
LOL @ WCC
That is my son mami- his name is Jahjaye
Why should he sign a prenup when he married her for her money and her fame? At least he’s honest. Remember, you women believe in love and commitment. Men are just along for the ride.
That was a very odd couple anyway. He’s effin scary looking, imo. Not attractive at all..
Whoopti Doo
He always seemed alittle more cultured than her
Now that I think about it, I believe they only got engaged for the sake of appearances. She was something like a teen idol back in her American Idol Days and kids looked up to her in her (for being the big girl who did her thang and didnt care what others thought). They probably werent really “in love.”—They met, hooked up, she got pregnant, had a “oh shat now what do we do?” moment. So they pulled a Brandy and agreed to get “engaged.” Just didnt go as far as the marriage part….
I dont think he cares about her money, just that he wants his son to be well taken of and have the best in life.
@Creamy,
yep, it’s called palimony 
Called it off huh? Do ya think that twitter battle got her to thinking?
Poor punk kicked to the curb again….
then again like Creole said they just got engaged to protect her image when she decided to have a baby out of wedlock…
*gets the weed wacker ready for Dat’s doo*
They broke up because she finally realized he failed the booty hole test.
Hi Sandra Rose ma’am
What do you think about Kim K. getting one on the leading parts in the newest Tyler Perry movie? Being that she has such a stellar acting quality about her *note the sarcasm*
#justasking
@yall, not one bit. I also want to see receipts he went to Harvard.
@ DATS
The gravi is killing me over here..
Where I live, I actually see females around with they head looking like that

I don’t agree totally; depending on the MAN and his moral fiber, what he aspires to become and the person he is. I refuse to place all men in the same category. I will give it to you that a certain group of men have some of the same characteristic’s they desire to do the bear minimum for themselves (same as women; groupies, h*e’s, gold diggers, etc.). The wanting to be rich and famous ideal resonates in men but not all are cut from that cloth.
I’m sorry to hear this…but people come into your life for a reason and season. He was there to carry her through the BAD TIMES..now his season is over. I never thought his intentions were honorable….just hope they can be good co-parents and keep it moving.
He is a Lawyer by trade..so if he connected and networked during his time with her he can make his own $$$ in entertainment. AND as a Lawyer he definitely should have understood her wanting him to sign a pre nup! Any lawyer would recommend it…
…..i got nothing

well, like most people who spent their entire lives fat; once they lose the weight, they feel different and think they’re stock has risen drastically to a whole new class of people that would only point at laugh at them in life’s past. Jennifer vows to be one of those people now, and decided she wants no grown ass man who refers to himself as punk, chose wrestling over a legal career, AND refuse to sign a pre-nup.
Sorry punk, and she’s telling you, she’s going. you’re the best man, she’s ever known, and there’s no way she can, move along. no, no, no, no way…
Why the hell does her being a size 16 before translate into she had low self esteem you’ll need to get grip!

I dont always agree with your assessment of folks auntie but this one you hit. I knew they weren’t going to stay together especially after she lost that weight. When I saw her on Oprah acting like she was to sexy for her shirt. I actually said I bet she breaks up with ole dude.
I see you got jokes Candi Apple im just saying that assumpation is bs

I did look from you point of view and I do agree to some extent. She didn’t necessarily need to have low-self esteem just because she was thick. I mean she did snag an Oscar and she didn’t make it that far because she didn’t have confidence. In fact it took a multitude of esteem to carry the task to the end especially with the scrutiny she received from main stream media.
See I am versatile.
I just happen to believe she did have some self esteem issues due to her size.

I wouldn’t be surprise if this is true. I have noticed he is not around as much these days. I think she got the big head when she lost all of the weight and started getting much more attention than before.
Gee, I hope this is not true. She was one lucky woman to have him at such a devastating time in her life. This has got to be really hard, if true. Most men are so self-absorbed, that they are not going to stand by you through such horrific event as that.
God bless, Jen.
SOME Interesting comments and ALSO Some Funny-AZZ Comments !!!
I’m just Noticing that He’s more concerned with Holding that Dunkin Donuts Cup than J-Hud’s Hand… She’s ACTUALLY Holding HER OWN Hand
I SEEN Some Outrageously ZESTY-AZZ Pics of Dude and There is NO WAY This Dude even LIKES PUZZY… Ohh And the Professional Wrestling thing of His (ENUFF Said…)
Matt Barnes & Gloria split too!
*singing Beyonce’s “Single Ladies”* :whistle”
I thought they were already married for some reason.
I know word on the street was that he wouldn’t sign a pre-nup. I guess she wasn’t willing to marry him without one.
I used to see this dude in Sweetbay all the time stocking up on veggies, on the phone with (I’m assuming) her, getting produce specifications. Sad to hear, but she’s clearly a serial monogamist. :/

i don’t get that feeling from punk. i mean, she ain’t all that and her damn career ain’t all that. the man is an attorney. i believe he can get a damn job making more than she makes in the long term.
plus, i hate that these chicks run out and immediately get pregnant and then act brand new (a la halle) with the dude later. why is who you have a prenup with more important than who you have a child with?
i think he suspect but she chose him.
to me, If you have to sign a Man-Made self agreement, then maybe you should’nt be united in the first place, Man has destroyed all of GOD’s Word, I never understood how a peice of paper comes in the marriage, but GOD never exsist in it. but the first thing you will hear them say, well GOD is FIRST (lie) he was never even in the equation. #IJS. We will never learn, even for those who dont believe. We are going down. as a whole
I STILL need to see receipts that he’s a lawyer.
I think EVERYONE should sign a prenup. People change in the blink of an eye. You can San that if you split, it will be amicable but that may not be the case when things go south.
Dang life aint been so easy for jenn
hopefully she is ok
It was that dayum split in her bottom lip!
Good morning everyone!
I really like Jennifer. After all the tragedy she has faced, I am wishing her all the best, whatever that is for her best interest.

No need for a long engagement, unless they are trying to break the bank for a expensive wedding. Stats have proven the longer one lives together before marriage, the higher chance of divorce, or the marriage will never happen.
Maybe she didn’t like living under HIS spotlight!

;rofl: Yeah, that’s it. Or maybe she thought he lost his marbles when he went from a Lawyer to a Wrestler. It’s like Fakedra going from a Lawyer to a Housewife.
@ Anna –
YOU ARE CRAZY! I often wondered how she TRULY felt about him going from being a lawyer to being a “wrastler!” I HATE WHEN PPL SAY WRASTLING!
BUT, what comes around, goes around. I remember when she first came out, she had her same ‘ol boyfriend that she had for like 7 years, taking him to the premiers, awards, etc. Everyone kept asking her will she leave him and she said for what, we’ve been together all these years. All of a sudden, he was GHOST and she was w/Punk!

Although Punk went the reality route (so did Jennifer for that matter) and wants to be a wrestler now, I can’t overlook the Harvard JD. That isht ain’t for dummies. Maybe he wouldn’t sign an unreasonable pre-nup. He is trained as a lawyer. He summered at the same firm as Michelle Obama. He’ll always have his intellect in his back pocket.
@NaijaGal

@85, Phaedra’s going to open her home funeral home, or something along those lines. I think being a lawyer, the type clients you represent adds or takes away from your credibility. reppin a guy who can suck his own schlung wont make johnny multimillionaire retain your services. now if said guy sucked his own and made multimillions, that would be the difference.
I like phaedra, won’t knock her, but that one there…..
