Queen Latifah supported grieving singer Jennifer Hudson at the American Music Awards on Sunday in a performance with Alicia Keys and opera singer Kathleen Battle.

Hudson lost her mother Darnell Donerson, brother Jason and nephew Julian in a tragic killing last month.

The pair were found shot dead at their home in Chicago, Illinois, on October 24, three days before seven-year-old Julian King - son of her sister Julia - was found dead in an abandoned car.
