In the video posted on Instagram, Hudson revealed her stunning singing voice as she sang "Hopelessly Devoted To You," while rocking a tired Rani in her arms.
Hudson also added a message, calling Newton-John a musical inspiration.
"❤️Olivia Newton-John❤️ There are a handful of people in my life who inspired me to lock myself in my bedroom and sing from the top of my lungs in the mirror. Mimicking every move she made, wishing I could hit those clean high notes and striving to try with my little rasp," she wrote.
She continued: "What a lovely light of a human. She was an inspiration to me as I dreamed of what my performers life ahead may be. Thank you for sharing your light to the world as it moved and shaped little girls like me. May we all today sing for Olivia and celebrate her courageous years of fighting. Love and Light 💫."
