Dating a superstar like Jennifer Hudson isn’t easy. Especially if you want to establish your own identity and fame.
You may have noticed that Jennifer Hudson has graced a lot of red carpets over the past year without her fiancé David Otunga. Before you assume there is trouble in paradise, super busy schedules have had the two on separate coasts and David has been attempting to establish his own shine. While promoting his new flick “The Call” with Morris Chestnut and Halle Berry, he told the Chicago Tribune:
I want to stand alone. I’m pretty successful in my own right. (Jennifer Hudson) still comes up, but what can I do?
It’s one of those things they kept bringing up no matter how many times I said, ‘Please don’t mention (Hudson). They kept doing it and it irritated me to the point that I changed my [WWE] character. That’s why I started a new character with a bow tie and coffee mug.
Before proposing to Jennifer Hudson in 2008, David rose to fame as a contestant on I Love New York 2 [which he probably regrets], but he’s also a Harvard Law graduate, who’s establishing himself as a WWE superstar and budding actor:
People want to know more about me. They want to know who I am. It’s cool to finally have that attention. … That’s something I tried to do from the beginning — to be my own person. I wanted to do different things and try to establish myself. It’s great to get recognized for that.
