Jennifer Hudson wasn't nominated for any awards, but she surfaced anyway at the 2013 Oscars last night (Feb. 24) to perform "You're Gonna Love Me," her signature tune from Dreamgirls.

She literally brought the house down, earning a standing ovation and all.

This, despite the fact that her performance came during a tribute to musicals which also featured Catherine Zeta-Jones, Hugh Jackman, Anne Hathaway, Russell Crowe and Amanda Seyfried, among others.

Think we're exaggerating? Watch the performance again and tell us if it's not special.
