The "Dreamgirls" Divas Unite...


Jennifer Hudson snagged two trophies at the BET Awards last night, taking home Best New Artist and Best New Actress.

But Jennifer's big moment came when she kicked off the show with a duet with the original Effie, Jennifer Holliday. The two brought down the house with "And I Am Telling You I'm Not Going."

Holliday originated the role of Effie on Broadway and made "Telling" the signature song of the show. She had complained about being ignored for her contributions to "Dreamgirls," but that's apparently all forgiven now...

You can see their amazing performance on YouTube...
