Are Jennifer Hudson and Common dating for real?
The talented pair were spotted having dinner yet again, but apparently, this isn't the first time.
According to People magazine, Hudson and Common were seen leaving the celebrity-favorite hotspot, Nobu, in Malibu.
The pictures show the EGOT and EGO walking next to each other; Hudson was sporting a pink ensemble from head to toe, while Common donned a cream-colored hoodie, khaki-colored pants, white sneakers, and a black jacket in his hand.
The first time the pair were linked was back in 2022; however, it seems like Hudson shut down the rumors by responding: "People create their narratives of it and it's like, OK, you know, how you feel."
"We shot a film together and he played my husband. We gotta eat in between those moments," she continued, referring to the movie they both starred in, the upcoming movie, "Breathe."
The action-thriller movie will see the pair portray husband and wife, alongside other stars like Milla Jovovich, Sam Worthington, and Quvenzhané Wallis.

Dating Rumors
According to Daily Mail UK, prior to allegedly dating the Hudson, the musician was dating comedian Tiffany Haddish for over a year.
However, due to their busy schedules, they decided to break up; a source confirmed: "They are never in the same city together and both of them are just too busy for a serious relationship."
Common met Haddish, ironically, under the same circumstances-they were filming a movie together.
On the other hand, Hudson was linked to David Otunga several years back; they had a long-term relationship and even got engaged.
After their ten-year engagement, Hudson and the WWE wrestler called it quits in 2017.
Despite the multi-hyphenated star's denials of her relationship with the musician, a source revealed that there's more to their relationship than simply being co-workers.
"Things took a romantic turn while they were filming in Philadelphia over the summer," the source said a year ago. "When the day's shoot wrapped, they'd always find their way to each other's side."
Several other people witnessed the couple's previous dates and also shared that there had been "a lot of cuddling."
As of this writing, neither Hduson nor Common have confirmed their romance-save for that one interview Hudson gave-but it is also safe to assume that there's more to it than what meets the eye.
