The first few looks [1] at the Cats [2] movie adaptation have fans divided [3], but one thing we can all agree on is that Jennifer Hudson [4] is the perfect Grizabella [5]. In the film, her character sings the musical's most famous number, "Memory," and boy does she nail those high notes. During The Voice [6] finale, the talented singer made spines tingle as she performed the song for the first time on TV in front of a fake moon and London backdrop reminiscent of the film's setting.
While I'm still unsure of what to expect from the live adaptation — seriously, why do the cats have tails and feet? [7] — I have a strong feeling Hudson's big number will leave me in a puddle of tears. Whether you love or hate Cats, you'll definitely want to put your paws up for this performance.
