11 Musicians Who Successfully Switched To Acting

4. Jennifer Hudson’s Success in “Dreamgirls”

Hudson is one lady who manages to wear multiple hats with style. Having risen to fame during her attempt at the American Idol crown in 2004, she made her film debut two years later. Jennifer went on to win an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress for her role in Dreamgirls. Unlike many others, however, she did not give up her career as a musician. Hudson has released three studio albums since, of which two have gained critical acclaim.
