     *According to the New York Post, Jennifer Hudson was not trying to follow up her busy week of hometown celebrations in Chicago and U.N. speeches in New York with a 3,000 mile trek to the West coast for the Soul Train Music Awards.

      "Jennifer called Friday and said she couldn't make it," a source told the New York Post. Apparently, the news didn’t sit well with “Soul Train” producer Don Cornelius, who was already dealing with no-shows from nominees Mary J. Blige, Beyonce and John Legend.

      According to Page Six, a Hudson cancellation was the last straw. Cornelius reportedly called J Records head Clive Davis, who is overseeing J-Hud’s debut album.

      The source said: "Clive called Jennifer and read her the riot act. He said, 'Get your ass out to L.A.' and then hung up on her."

       Next thing you know, Hudson is at the Pasadena Civic Auditorium beaming as she accepts her Sammy Davis Jr. Award for Entertainer of the Year.
