Jennifer Hudson Talks About Weight Loss: “You have to do it for you”

Jennifer Hudson shared her thoughts about the scandal over The Biggest Loser winner Rachel Frederickson's dramatic weight lose with People on the red carpet of the 2014 BET Honors in Washington, D.C., on Saturday, February 8.

"The key about losing weight: You have to do it for you," Hudson said.

"It's not about even starting the journey, it's about you. You have to want to do it. And you can't let what everyone has to say overshadow what you want for you."

She also said that she's "sticking with the plan" with Weight Watchers.

"That's what I try to do and take it with me everywhere I go."

She also shared that she's still getting used to her new hairdo. When asked on whether she feels a little sexier with her short hairdo, she replied: "I'm still finding my niche with it and having fun with it. I'm like, 'I like this short thing.' I'm just embracing it."

Hudson is one of the performers at the 2014 BET Honors which will air on Feb. 24 at 9pm on BET.
