"For the Rest of My Life" - Things are slowed down but you can still feel that thump from a kick drum/rim shot on this track. Here, Thicke is not chasing an elusive love interest, instead he packs his falsetto with an extra dose of passion as he sings about loving his woman for the rest of his natural born life.   (Photo: Michael Caulfield/WireImage for BET Network)

Jennifer Holliday and Jennifer Hudson - The tabloids talk about beef between these two divas, who both played Effie in Dreamgirls (Holliday in 1981's Tony-winning Broadway version, Hudson in her 2006 Oscar-winning performance), but we couldn't see it when the two performed a show-stopped duet of "And I Am Telling You (I'm Not Going)" at the 2007 BET Awards. Two years later, Hudson brought Holliday on stage during her Atlanta show for a sing-off. That night, they were both winners.(Photo: Michael Caulfield/WireImage for BET Network)
