Jennifer Hudson is proving (to many jealous women out there) that her career did not peak with a silly little Oscar.  The Academy Award winner has now been cast in the big screen version of Sex and the City.

The former American Idol contestant will be joining Sarah Jessica Parker, Kim Cattrall, Cynthia Nixon and Kristin Davis in the Big Apple.  After months of talk, production on the HBO show-turned film will finally begin next week. 

While plot details have yet been leaked, we do know that Jennifer will play Carrie Bradshaw’s assistant (Louise).  Any guesses out there as to what that means?  Did Carrie become a full-time writer at Vogue?  Does this mean she will actually be working outside of her apartment…in an office?
