The Oscar-winning actress and singer, who has been in seclusion since the killings of her mother, brother and nephew, was nominated Wednesday for four Grammy awards for her self-titled debut album.
Says Hudson: “It’s been a childhood dream of mine to release an album, so to receive four Grammy nominations is truly a blessing. I am extremely honored and humbled by the nominations.”
The nominations came a day after her estranged brother-in-law, William Balfour, was formally charged with murder in the killings of Hudson’s mother, Darnell Donerson; her brother, Jason Hudson; and her 7-year-old nephew, Julian King.
Hudson has declined through a spokeswoman to speak about the arrest.
