Last night The Secret Life of Bees premiered at The Academy Of Motion Arts & Sciences in Beverly Hills. The movie is an adaptation of the book by the same name written by Sue Monk Kidd. Don't know a thing about it? Just picture Dakota Fanning (up above) in the early 60's South having to leave her town after her nanny (Jennifer Hudson) insults a group of white men. They high tail it to Tiburon, South Carolina, in part to look for "the black madonna" and meet a group of black women who change Dakota's life. more..

Back in June, Jennifer Hudson told E! she would do whatever she could for Barack Obama's campaign, just give her a call. She got that call to perform on the biggest stage of the campaign.
