Burger King gives Jennifer Hudson free Whoppers for life

Judging by Jennifer Hudson's impressive weight loss and glamorous Hollywood makeover, it's unlikely that the actress will be making visits to Burger King any time soon. But if Jennifer does get a craving for a Whopper, it's on the King. Burger King has agreed to give the former "American Idol" star free meals for life after she made a reference to the fast food chain while defending herself against comments made by "Idol" judge Simon Cowell.



When Jennifer won the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress last month, she neglected to thank "American Idol" for giving her her start. Simon blasted Jennifer's slip-up and the fact that she called the show a "stepping stone." He said, "Stepping stone? It was her big opportunity to become noticed and she got noticed and she got Dreamgirls." Hudson scoffed at Cowell's words and said back, "If I'd been any better at my job when I was at Burger King in my middle teens, I wouldn't be here either, so should I thank them, too?"

Well, Burger King took advantage of Jennifer's statement to make some headlines itself. A spokesperson for the chain said, "In response to Jennifer's recent comments in which she asked if she should be thanking Burger King, we say thanks, but no thanks are necessary. Burger King Corporation is proud of Jennifer's success and while we never like to lose employees, in this case, our loss is the entertainment industry's gain...To further show our support for Jennifer, and make sure she never has to sing for her supper again, Burger King Corporation is giving her a pre-paid BK Crown Card that will be automatically reloaded for life."
