Jennifer Hudson put on a cozy display with her boyfriend Common on Wednesday when they stepped out for a sporty date night in LA.
The American Idol alum looked dazzling courtside as she showed off her long legs while taking in the game between the Los Angeles Lakers and Dallas Mavericks at Crypto.com Arena.
Jennifer was casually dressed in a long leather coat which was worn open to reveal her bare legs which she crossed as she sat alongside the rapper as they took in the game.
Despite her casual appearance, Jennifer still added a touch of glam with red lipstick and long, perfectly painted nails.
She and Common didn't pack on the PDA, but appeared comfortable and relaxed as they put on an animated display in their front-row seats.

However, during an appearance on CBS Mornings in November 2023, she admitted that she is "very happy" with her love life.
During a conversation with Gayle King, Jennifer was asked how she is feeling about her "very nice relationship with someone who shall remain nameless".

"Boo'ed up? I think it's more sophisticated than boo'ed up," she added. "Definitely not an entanglement. That's for sure."
Jennifer was previously in a decade-long relationship with her ex-fiancé David Otunga.
They kickstarted their romance in 2007 and got engaged a year later. In 2009, they welcomed their son, David Daniel Otunga Jr., but eight years later they ended their romance.
Common, 51, is also a dad and is a father to his daughter, Omoye Assata Lynn. He shares her with his ex-girlfriend, Kim Jones, who he split from in 2008. Omoye is now 26 years old and graduated from law school in 2022, making Common one proud dad.
