Jennifer Hudson has revealed she was utterly shocked that Eddie Murphy did not claim the Best Supporting Actor category at this year's Oscar's.

The actress, who won the award's female counterpart, admitted she became nervous about her category when she witnesses Alan Arkin claim the supporting actor gong, as both she and Murphy were the bookies favourites to triumph.

"I was very, very shocked," she recalled. "Very shocked. And of course that made everybody nervous. "We were all like 'Uh-oh. Oh, God.' You know, but he's still a winner."
