Does Jennifer Hudson have a major shopping addiction? She thinks so. Maybe she can be a guest on Hoarders. "I have a serious shopping problem now,” Hudson said. “Each city we go to, my suitcase won’t hold my new clothes, so we have to box them up and ship them home. Then I get back and want to try on everything I bought, so clothes are just everywhere. It got to a point where I could barely get in my bedroom. And when did I realize I had a problem? Well, my bed is a canopy. I had nowhere else to throw the clothes. So I threw them on top of the canopy!" [Showbiz Spy]
