Jennifer Hudson was reportedly at the centre of a style war at the Oscars recently

The star, whose red carpet outfit was slated by the press, was allegedly caught up in a battle between Vogue editor Andre Leon Talley and stylist Jessica Paster.

A source told the New York Post page six:” Jennifer was kind of sponsored by Talley and Vogue.”

“Andre insisted that she wear that hideous Oscar De La Renta dress with the awful, awful gold python bolero. Jennifer really didn’t want to, so Jessica Paster got her a beautiful gold Roberto Cavalli gown. “

The source revealed that Andre went ballistic when he found out; Hudson eventually caved in and wore Talley’s outfit.

Jennifer, who won an Oscar for Best supporting Actress for her role in Dream girls, later changed into the gold dress for the winners’ photo and after show parties.
