Tori Kelly & Jennifer Hudson 'Hallelujah' Duet

Illumination has captivated audiences all over the world with the beloved hits Despicable Me, Dr. Seuss’ The Lorax, Despicable Me 2 and Minions, now the second-highest-grossing animated movie in history. Following the release of The Secret Life of Pets in summer 2016, Illumination presents Sing at the holidays. Matthew McConaughey, Reese Witherspoon, Seth MacFarlane, Scarlett Johansson, John C. Reilly, Taron Egerton and Tori Kelly star in a musical comedy about finding the shining star that lives inside all of us.

Set in a world like ours but entirely inhabited by animals, Sing stars Buster Moon (Academy Award® winner Matthew McConaughey), a dapper Koala who presides over a once-grand theater that has fallen on hard times. Buster is an eternal optimist—okay, maybe a bit of a scoundrel—who loves his theater above all and will do anything to preserve it. Now facing the crumbling of his life’s ambition, he has one final chance to restore his fading jewel to its former glory by producing the world’s greatest singing competition.

Five lead contestants emerge: A mouse (Seth MacFarlane) who croons as smoothly as he cons, a timid teenage elephant (Tori Kelly) with an enormous case of stage fright, an overtaxed mother (Academy Award® winner Reese Witherspoon) run ragged tending a litter of 25 piglets, a young gangster gorilla (Taron Egerton) looking to break free of his family’s felonies, and a punk-rock porcupine (Scarlett Johansson) struggling to shed her arrogant boyfriend and go solo. Each animal arrives under Buster’s marquee believing that this is their shot to change the course of their life.

[cmarsh]

Holy.... Tori killed it. She is so clean and precise. It seemed so effortless and she had no problem keeping up with Jennifer. I didn't expect the harmonies. Wow, that was a great pairing.

[LalaCDavis]

January 13, 2021 is anyone listening? Blessing!!

[Itslib]

I love them together. But when Jennifer sings I get chills.

[quotesbynanipbe]

Jennifer brought the soul to it. She killed it

[Yoyo-pwrl]

How could I miss the duet? I found this version 3 years too late. Great duet!

[ebwaluemmanuel]

It's January 2021 and am still alive... Hallelujah

[aila]

Is it possible to be in love with two people's voices??? I think it is.

[keishaS]

Jennifer and Tori = Perfect Combo but, the run that Tori does at 2:41 gets me every time. She has so much control, I love it!

[degrind]

why is no one talking about Tori's vocal run at 2:40 ?! actually the best vocal run i've heard in my life!

[christianWilliams-pcjn]

Their voices compliment eachother so well ...this is Gold.

[kellys]

Well done ladies. Jennifer Hudson has the most exquisite voice, that I feel should be recognized more.

[telthatruth]

Beautiful combo!! No sense in comparing the two. This only PROVES that the Lord loves variety. There are a wide variety of birds and butterflies for us to enjoy and these two gals are simply beautiful in their own unique way!!❤️❤️❤️Their look and sound is uniquely given to them by our creator. Praise the Lord!! It would be awfully boring if everyone sung or looked alike. Praise be to the all knowing, brilliant, powerful and incredible God!! Thank you Jesus!❤️❤️❤️

[camillewright]

Amazing. They did a job. And Jennifer Hudson voice gives me shivers

[kentsmith]

The section starting at 2:08 is incredible. The way they harmonized the ending line of the phrase gives me chills every time.

[s-nih]

That was just beautiful!! How is Tori so flawless with her vocals?!

[Riogi]

This was a beautiful duet. Both singers complimented each other perfectly.

[tykalabates]

JENNIFER HUDSON DEFINITELY HAS AN ANGELIC STRONG POWERFUL VOICE THAT SPEAKS TO YOUR SOUL, & TORRI DID HER THANG
