Jennifer Hudson’s New Talk Show Puts Guests in the Spotlight

Jennifer Hudson Launches Her Own Talk Show – And It’s a Total Game‑Changer

In a big‑hearted move that feels as natural as her next hit single, the Emmy‑, Grammy‑, Oscar‑, and Tony‑winning sensation has turned the spotlight onto herself, hosting The Jennifer Hudson Show nationwide.

Why This Feels Like the Perfect Time

“It’s brought me to this place and I feel like the timing is perfect,” Hudson told Reuters. “I’ve been every character and sung every song—now it’s just time to be me. And honestly, I’m pumped to chat with people, hear their stories, and soak in their passions.”

The Show’s Original Lineup

  • Inviting everyone from social‑media stars to unsung heroes who just got discovered on the street
  • Featuring celebrity guests, community leaders, musicians, and more—because life’s too short for only one type of talent
  • Built on the same Warner Bros. studio where Ellen taped for almost two decades
  • Co‑produced by former Ellen execs Mary Connelly, Andy Lassner, and Corey Palent, with Hudson as executive producer

A Platform for Every Talent

Hudson says, “Someone gave me a platform, so I want to do the same. I see talented people every day—some are musicians, some are activists, some are the next big TikTok sensation.”

Premiered on Her Birthday!

The first episode aired September 12th—just in time for a celebration on her own birthday—streaming on Fox TV, Hearst Television, and additional local stations.

So grab your popcorn, hit play, and get ready to feel the joy and empowerment that only J‑Hud can deliver!
