"I heard you've been even out there talking about marriage. What's that about?" Hudson asked Common.

"You know what, you told me a quote that your mother said, 'A man knows what he wants,'" he responded. "I was saying my true feelings about, 'listen, Jennifer is the person'."

"If I should be married, it will be to Jennifer Kate Hudson," he added. "I was just being honest."

Hudson looked visibly pleased.

"I support that idea," Hudson told him. "I think it's a beautiful idea!"

The actress went on to praise Common: "When you hear his name, Common, you think of a storyteller, a poet, an artist who speaks truth to power," she said.

"But when I think of this man, Rashid, I think of your heart, your faith, and what I love most about him: He is a praying man. He is a man of his word. He is like nobody I have ever seen in my life. Talk about choosing joy. You are joy. You are my joy, and you are light."
