Last year was not good for talk shows like Nick Cannon, Dr. Oz, Maury Povich, and more. However, this year is proving to be the opposite. That is because both Jennifer Hudson and Sherri Shepherd’s daytime talk shows were renewed for another season. Well, Sherri, who replaced Wendy Williams, was picked up for two!
Jennifer Hudson may be an EGOT winner, but she is not a triple threat. Although, that might change because today, on her talk show, Meghan Trainor showed her how to Twerk. Who would’ve thought? But seeing is believing. And do you believe that she can dance now?
Also, on the daytime talk show, Trainor revealed why she keeps some of the plaques in her bathrooms. Why? She wants her guests to know the tunes she wrote for other artists. So when her friends are taking a pee in her bathroom, the singer knows she has their undivided attention. I have to admit that is brilliant. But I am sure her guests are more into the fact that her bathrooms have his and her toilets. At least I would be.
Jennifer Hudson has a new talk show, and she got an old friend to be her first guest. That friend is Simon Cowell, and he asked her the money question.
What was it? If she could go back and change the song she performed on American Idol that caused her to get eliminated early on, would she do it?
The EGOT winner would keep the Barry Manilow song because it is what landed her her Oscar-winning role in Dreamgirls.
You see, Manilow structured Weekend in New England after I’m Telling You. So it was like she auditioned for the role without auditioning for it.
So, had she not chosen that crappy song that got her eliminated, then she would not have gotten the role in the movie. Had she not gotten the part, then someone else would be hosting her daytime talk show, and she would be home wondering what it would’ve been like to have the life she has now.

For some reason, Jennifer Hudson was given a daytime talk, and it is going to debut on September 12th. Today, we found out the EGOT winner is going to take back to the beginning of her career for her first guest.
Who is it going to be? Hudson will be reunited with Simon Cowell for the first time since she was eliminated from American Idol in 2004. They have a lot to catch up on because a lot has happened to both of them in 18 years. Can you believe it has been that long?
BTW Cowell was not the first, but one of them on both The Kelly Clarkson Show and The Nick Cannon Show. One show is still on the air; one isn’t. Who knew he was so popular?
