KELLY ROWLAND ON LOSING OUT ON 'SEX IN THE CITY' ROLE TO JENNIFER HUDSON: 'I CAN'T UNDERSTAND IT.....'


Did you all know that Beyonce's background singer/dancer, Kelly Rowland also lost a movie role to Jennifer Hudson...just like Beyonce did? Rowland, who failed to nail the role of Louise, the assistant to Sarah Jessica Parker's character Carrie Bradshaw in the movie version of Sex in the City, says she sometimes ponders the existence of what she calls the 'Jennifer Hudson curse. To say Rowland was stunned to hear she lost the role to the Oscar winner would be an understatement because she claims she was totally convinced that she had it in the bag. "I can't understand it because I did a really good job at the audition, a really good job! I hate it, and of course I feel that I should have the part, but then Jennifer Hudson's just won an Oscar, so maybe she's better for the role. But I was so bummed at that, I really wanted it." When it comes to her music and acting career, that girl just can't seem catch a break. Bless her heart.

It is the second time in as many years that Hudson has triumphed over the Destiny's Child girls - in 2006, she was awarded the part of Effie White in the big-screen adaptation of musical Dreamgirls - the role Beyonce Knowles initially wanted to audition for. Knowles later accepted the smaller part of Deena Jones, in a story loosely based on the rise and fall of The Supremes in the 1960s and 70s.
