Jennifer Hudson is among a long list of celebrities expected to perform as part of V to the Tenth on April 12 in New Orleans.

You may have heard about the four-letter word Jane Fonda used when promoting a special event last week on the Today show. It turns out that event, V to the Tenth, also will feature Dreamgirl and American Idol alumnus Jennifer Hudson.

Hudson is scheduled to join Fonda and an all-star list of other celebrities, including Oprah Winfrey, Jessica Alba, Glenn Close, Sally Field, Rosario Dawson and many, many others for special performances of The Vagina Monologues, written by Eve Ensler.

Ensler started V-Day and a charity to stop violence against women and girls after the success of The Vagina Monologues. Staging of the play took place in about 800 cities around the world as part of the first V-Day event. Now, 10 years later, the charity is presenting the special V to the Tenth at the Superdome in New Orleans. The one-time performance will be April 12.

To find out more about V-Day or V to the Tenth, visit the official V-Day site.
