The singer’s accessories flaunted the iconic Medusa emblem of Versace in gold, the perfect choice of metal for the color of her outfit. She wore a chain necklace, a bracelet, a ring, and a belt, which all feature the Medusa in large shiny medallions.

Jennifer Hudson was honored at the 2013 Do Something Awards for her work with the Julian D. King Foundation, an organization named after Hudson’s nephew who was murdered back in 2008. The organization provides school supplies to children from low-income families.
