And in Chicago....

And Oscar winner Jennifer Hudson hosted a toy drive at Chicago's Navy Pier Wednesday in honor of her late nephew Julian King.  Julian's mother Julia Hudson, said her late son "would have loved it."

"He always had toys. I would come home and see his bike down the street and say, 'Why is your bike down the street?' 'Oh I gave it away.' This would be right up his alley I think.  "I know he's smiling, something he would have done, exactly."
