Jennifer Hudson, the 2009 comeback queen, appeared on the “Oprah Winfrey Show,” where she dished to the talk-show titian that “I’m good. I’m really good. Glad to be back to working and doing what I love to do. I’m in a very good place.” The Oscar-winning actress, who recently picked up her first Grammy for Best R&B Album, named her three dogs after her major career milestones, Oscar, Grammy and Dreamgirl. -QS
