Hudson Disney Dream Liner Launched

Billed as the most high-tech cruise ship ever.

Jennifer Hudson realised her Disney dream on Wednesday when she launched the company's new cruise ship in Florida.

The Oscar winner, who also performed at the dockside event, once performed on-board a Disney Wonder cruise back in 2003.

Hudson was named the godmother of the 4,000-passenger Disney Dream liner, which has been billed as the most high-tech cruise ship ever built.

The ship's maiden voyage begins next week.
