Jennifer Hudson Talks Dream Interviews, New Christmas Album and What to Expect From Her Talk Show’s Season 3


Jennifer Hudson discusses her Christmas album, dream guests, 43rd birthday plans and what to expect for 'The Jennifer Hudson Show' Season 3.

Jennifer Hudson exploded into the pop culture zeitgeist two decades ago as a contestant on the singing competition series “American Idol.” And although she was eliminated early from the third season’s top 7, she would rapidly outgrow her reality show roots and become one of Hollywood’s most prolific multi-hyphenates. Along the way, Hudson lent her voice to some of the most significant events in American culture, notching performances at the Academy Awards, the Emmys, two Super Bowls, Michael Jackson’s memorial service and Pope Francis’ first visit to America. As a parent, I’m sensitive to those things and I think the kids can sense that you’re hanging out with Mama Hud, we gonna have some fun.
