Podcast appearances and mentions of Jennifer Hudson

Host Jodi Katz sat down with two women at the forefront of redefining health care as we know it: Liz Josefsberg, Founder & CEO of Target 100 Inc and Sarah Pesce, COO of stealth-mode wellness startup Radence.Despite wildly different paths—Liz went from Broadway star to Weight Watchers executive, while Sarah pivoted from nurse practitioner to health-tech builder—both share a mission: to help people move from “sick care” to well care.Liz's early career was center stage—literally. She spent years performing in Showboat and Les Misérables, all while privately battling weight fluctuations. That struggle led her to Weight Watchers, first as a member, then as a team member, and ultimately as their Director of Brand Advocacy. She helped build programs, consulted for the CEO, and guided celebrities like Jennifer Hudson and Charles Barkley through their own wellness transformations.But Liz wanted more than just the Weight Watchers playbook. She authored Target 100, a behavioral weight loss book that evolved into an app platform connecting hydration tracking, biometrics, and movement. Her mission? To give people a simple, evidence-based way to understand their bodies—and stay in the game without guilt or shame.Sarah began in cardiology, treating patients already facing chronic illness. It didn't sit right. She saw an opportunity to move upstream—to build better systems for prevention. That led her to advanced degrees, hospital innovation work, and eventually to launching wellness labs that deliver “digital twins” of users through biomarker testing, wearables, and environmental data.Now, at Radence, Sarah's team is developing a member-based preventative screening experience backed by a powerhouse science team. Her focus? Making cutting-edge longevity care accessible, personalized, and understandable—without needing an advanced medical degree to interpret your own labs.Liz and Sarah agreed on nearly everything: that bio-data is only helpful if it's explained clearly. That technology is outpacing consumer understanding. That shame is a sales tool used too often—and that emotional support is what most health programs are missing. Whether it's using AI to build “Liz in your pocket” or designing a membership that meets people where they are, their north star is clarity, context, and compassion.As Liz put it: “No woman has ever come to me and said she doesn't know an apple is better than a Snickers. The problem isn't information. It's behavior—and how we stay in the game.”

A thirteen year old film, that has been derisively described as poverty porn, is our chosen film this month. Featuring an excellent supporting performance from Oscar winner Jennifer Hudson and a cameo role by Anthony Mackie, "The Inevitable Defeat of Mister and Pete is actually carried on the shoulders of two young actors who are on screen for nearly every scene in the story. Nicole Ayers of the "Mad Lab Post" championed the film and hosted the show. We lost one of our regular guests to illness but a super hero appeared at the last minute to join us and Howard Casner of "Pop Art" adds his insight to the discussion.

“I put a bird on my head.” We watched “Sex and the City” and we may have Poughkeepsied our pants laughing. Oh look, we made a little joke. The original “Sex and the City” TV show is iconic, and the jump to the big screen was everything we wanted. The wardrobe - elevated, the sex scenes - steamier, and the drama… well, the drama is top tier. We all remember the moment Carrie (Sarah Jessica Parker) was jilted at the altar. Charlotte (Kristin Davis) jumped to her rescue with the iconic “NO!”. Listen, it's not all rainbows and sunshine in this review. Miranda (Cynthia Nixon) is waaaay too hard on our beloved Steve (David Eigenberg). Big (Chris Noth) is still a prick, and Carrie's choice in gifts to her loyal assistant (Jennifer Hudson) is nothing short of hideous. Let's face it, we grew up with these ladies, and we still remember which one we were in our friend group. (We were Miranda.)

We Sound Crazy welcomes television and music pioneer Stephen Hill — the legendary executive behind some of the most iconic moments in Black entertainment culture. From shaping BET's golden era with shows like 106 & Park, BET Awards, and Rap City, to his impact as a music industry tastemaker, Hill brings decades of experience, insight, and incredible stories to the table. In this episode, the We Sound Crazy crew dives into Stephen's remarkable journey—from boardrooms to backstage, from the evolution of Black music on TV to the future of entertainment. Stephen shares the incredible story of how he managed to land Beyoncé for the 2016 BET Awards by personally showing up at her Formation World Tour dates, often the only executive present, determined to find a way for her to say yes. He also recounts the unforgettable moment at the 2007 BET Awards when Jennifer Hudson and Jennifer Holliday performed "And I'm Not Telling You I'm Not Going" – a performance made even more special by the fact that it was the very first time the two singers met, a meeting orchestrated despite film studio restrictions. With his signature wit, wisdom, and candor, Stephen opens up about these career highlights, cultural milestones, and the power of authentic storytelling.

It's all singing, dancing, chatting and eating at Dish this week. Cynthia Erivo is a British actor, singer and songwriter, well known for her phenomenal vocals and performances on stage and screen. She comes to the Dish table to talk about her new album, I Forgive You; a 20-track record which tells her life story in four distinct parts and showcases the full range of her incredible voice. It's released on 6 June, UK.  Erivo, who was born in Stockwell, London but now lives in Los Angeles, made her Broadway debut as Celie in The Color Purple alongside Jennifer Hudson, a role for which she won the Tony Award for Best Actress in a Musical and Grammy Award for Best Musical Theater Album. She has also received two Best Actress Oscar nominations for her roles in Harriet (2019) and most recently Wicked! (2024) where she played Elphaba opposite Ariana Grande. Other notable projects include heist thriller Widows the Netflix crime thriller Luther: The Fallen Sun, and the drama Drift. To mark the start of June, Angela served the table a vegan roasted red pepper, aubergine & freekeh salad with additional courgettes (Angela's favourite). As Cynthia doesn't drink, the trio enjoyed a glass of Real Peony Blush Non Alcoholic Sparkling Tea alongside it. For those that do want to match their salad with a glass of wine, the Waitrose experts suggest a glass of Eminence de Bijou.  We begin the episode by getting to know Cynthia's love of vegan food, understanding her garlic allergy and dislike of the onion family (sorry, onion family). Over the salad, we learn more about her new record, including how Ariana Grande helped to make it happen and get a first-class demonstration of just how powerful her voice is. Plus, we finally found a good writer for the End of Show Question! You can watch full episodes of Dish on YouTube  All recipes from this podcast can be found at waitrose.com/dishrecipes A transcript for this episode can be found at waitrose.com/dish We can't all have a Michelin star chef in the kitchen, but you can ask Angela for help.  Send your dilemmas to dish@waitrose.co.uk and she'll try to answer them in a future episode.

Ken Connors (in for Andrew Carter) had the opportunity to catch up with Barry Manilow earlier this year ahead of his final Montreal concert on May 30 at the Bell Centre.

The gang is chatting about the open office, spicy brands, and their upcoming brunch. Jennifer Hudson spreads joy with her spirit tunnel. Taylor Sheridan and Blake Shelton are bringing a country music show to CBS, Voldemort is coming to the Hunger Games, and Ryan Kiera Armstrong will star with Sarah Michele Geller in the Buffy reboot. A story about Dairy Queen inspires a discussion about Bob's new last name. The semicolon might be dying; Sarah will keep it alive.

Billy Ray Cyrus and Elizabeth Hurley? Yep — caught canoodling.

What ever happened to Beyonce? This week we're talking "Dreamgirls," the 2006 film adaptation of the 1981 stage musical.

On this episode of The Talk of Fame Podcast, we got to chat with Alex Bentley! a dynamic Middle Eastern-American actor and producer with a story that's as inspiring as it is unique. Born in sunny San Diego and raised in the Middle East, Alex's journey to the spotlight is anything but ordinary. Before gracing our screens, he was chasing a professional baseball career, playing semi-pro in Mexico and Europe and now playing for the Firefighters in The Savannah Bananas League. But fate had other plans. While playing college ball in San Diego, he scored his first role—playing a Padres player on FOX's Pitch. That moment marked his unexpected, but powerful, pivot from the diamond to the screen. Since then, Alex has lit up projects like Beckman alongside Brighton Sharbino and Billy Baldwin, Pam & Tommy with Sebastian Stan, Tell It Like A Woman opposite Jennifer Hudson, and 80 for Brady with legends Jane Fonda and Sally Field. Listen in as we discuss Alex's Journey & playing baseball for the Firefighters.  You'll be inspired by his dedication to her craft and making a difference for young baseball fans.Follow Me:Instagram:@Officialkyliemontigney@TalkoffamepodFacebook:OfficialkyliemontigneyTalkoffameTwitter:@Kyliemontigney4About Me:Hi, I'm Kylie!

“We bereaved are not alone. We belong to the largest company in all the world—the company of those who have known suffering.” ― Henry Ford Check Out These Highlights:  No one escapes tragedy, trauma, or loss. How we choose to deal with it determines whether we move forward or get stuck. Everyone grieves differently, yet our small actions may save us, keep us living our lives, and help us move forward with grace. This is an essential topic to discuss since every human faces loss during life. About Theresa Bruno:  As the founder and designer of Jordan Alexander Jewelry, Bruno has designed pieces for Oprah, Julia Roberts, Jennifer Hudson, Pink, and Michelle Obama, who named her a favorite designer. She is now the host of The Soul Talks Podcast. Theresa Bruno's life reads like a fairy tale in many ways. Like life, though, fairy tales are often darkened with tragedy, and Theresa's life is no exception. She has suffered more than her share of pain. However, she is still writing her story, and in this chapter, she is vanquishing the fear and shame that gutted her after her husband's death and the sudden collapse of her business by bringing it into the light and talking about it fearlessly.

Joel’s still banging on about how Sydney has the best coffee in the world — and now there’s proof! Toby’s Estate in Chippendale just topped the list at the "World’s 100 Best Coffee Shops Gala" in Madrid. Sip that! Then, we dive into Meghan Markle’s cringe-worthy appearance on The Drew Barrymore Show — someone get the Netflix PR team on the line, stat.

The Glossy’s are packed today: Jennifer Hudson’s unexpected NBA moment (ball to the face!), Justin Timberlake’s arrest drama (and the cop who didn’t know JT's tour was a thing), and Jane Fonda’s WILD bear encounter — she literally roared at a bear to save her grandson.

Hour 2 Saquon Barkley's record-breaking contract dominated the discussion, prompting reflections on John Mara's "Hard Knocks" appearance, with differing opinions on whether it reflected poorly on Mara or Joe Schoen. The Giants' quarterback strategy, including potential interest in Aaron Rodgers and rumored disinterest in Shedeur Sanders, was also a hot topic.

The hour concluded with a viral video of John Daly's unique lifestyle, showcasing his impressive golf skills while consuming vodka and cigarettes. Hour 3 Teams' controversial ticket price hikes after poor seasons sparked debate, with calls for discounted tickets as a remedy. Season ticket holders voiced frustrations, and dynamic pricing was criticized.

The discussion provides unique perspectives on the music industry, including insights from one of modern music’s most celebrated songwriters. IN THIS EPISODE:  [5:05] Diane Warren's early musical influences [11:10] Writing I Don’t Want to Miss a Thing and OSCAR nominations [13:00] Diane launches Mergui [15:28] Diane's versatility across musical genres [20:00] Mergui’s insights on sampling Elton John’s song KEY TAKEAWAYS:  Diane Warren's journey into songwriting began at a young age, sparked by her fascination with record credits. She would study the names of songwriters on albums, dreaming of seeing her own name there one day. This early passion and determination set her on a path to becoming one of the most successful songwriters in the industry. Despite the challenges faced by women in the music industry, Diane never let her gender define her capabilities. Inspired by trailblazers like Carole King, she pursued her career with confidence, never doubting her potential to succeed as a songwriter. Collaboration with artists like Mergui showcases Diane and Mergui's ability to adapt and thrive in different musical genres. Diane’s intuitive sense for matching songs with the right artists has led to successful partnerships, allowing her to continue creating timeless music across various styles. It’s important for songwriters to find the right artist to sing and produce their songs, someone who will honor and preserve the meaning and the music. That’s when the magic happens.

She has penned nine #1 and thirty-three top 10 hits on the Billboard Hot 100 and is tied for having written the most #1 songs as a sole writer in Billboard history. She was inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame in 2001 and received the prestigious Johnny Mercer Award from the organization in June 2024. She has received 16 Academy Award nominations, is a GRAMMY winner with 15 nominations, an EMMY winner, and is a two-time Golden Globe winner whose songs have been featured in more than 150 films. In November 2022, Warren became the first songwriter in history to receive an Honorary Oscar, as voted on by the Academy's Board of Governors. She recently wrote the original song "The Fire Inside," performed by Becky G for the film Flamin' Hot, directed by Eva Longoria, which marked her 15th Oscar nomination. She most recently wrote the original song “The Journey” performed by H.E.R. for the feature film The Six Triple Eight directed by Tyler Perry which marked her 16th Oscar nomination. She is the sole owner of her publishing company Realsongs, the most successful female-owned and operated business in the music industry. Warren is a recipient of a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, a nod to her legendary career, having worked with many of today's most popular artists, including Beyoncé, Lady Gaga, Taylor Swift, H.E.R., Snoop Dogg, Paloma Faith, Jon Batiste, Maren Morris, John Legend, Christina Aguilera, Kelly Clarkson, Andra Day, Justin Bieber, Jennifer Hudson and Janelle Monáe, in addition to having written songs for iconic artists such as Whitney Houston, Cher, Celine Dion, Mariah Carey, Dolly Parton, Reba McEntire, and many more.   Mergui has made it his mission to push the limits of modern pop music. He’s accomplished some incredible feats such as opening for Bruno Mars and Maroon 5. His talent has been recognized by publications such as Rolling Stone, Billboard, Wonderland Magazine, and Notion. Drawing inspiration from the rich tapestry of early 20th-century Italian opera and the nostalgic allure of ‘70s AM pop, Mergui’s sophomore EP Shadows of Blue was a remarkable fusion of influences. Notable tracks from the EP include the Elton John-approved “Cry,” and “Happy Now?”, which he performed on The Kelly Clarkson Show and NBC’s The TODAY Show, resulting in the track skyrocketing to the Top 10 on the U.S. iTunes Singer/Songwriter charts. Mergui’s music has been featured in top-notch editorial playlists across digital service platforms including Spotify’s New Music Friday (US & Global), Chill Pop, New Pop Picks, and Just Good Music. Mergui’s unguarded sense of vulnerability shines through in his art, landing him a coveted spot on People Magazine’s Emerging Artists of 2024 list. Following a successful tour with Forest Blakk and a collaboration with Sam Feldt in the latter half of 2024, Mergui is ready to take 2025 by storm with the release of his latest EP Nobody Really Knows.

Rich Scannella has played for some of the most iconic superstars in the music industry. Rich has played, toured, and or recorded with legendary artists: Bon Jovi, Bruce Springsteen, Lady Gaga, Jon Bon Jovi & The Kings of Suburbia, Tonic, Brian Fallon (Gaslight Anthem), Adam Duritz (Counting Crows), Joe Elliot (Def Leopard), Neal Schon (Journey), Michael Anthony (Van Halen), Gene Cornish (The Rascals), and Hubert Sumlin (Howlin' Wolf), to name a few. He has toured the USA, Europe, UK, Japan, Canada, and South America. Rich began drumming at age 9 under the direction of his father, Joe, a band leader and Juilliard graduate. It was in his father's jazz band that Rich first gained invaluable experience, and he turned pro at age 16 by joining the Trenton Musicians Union Local #62. His dad's influence soon gave way to a love of rock & roll and he never looked back. Along the way he attended New York City's premier drum school Drummers Collective. Hungry for all the knowledge he could get, he focused intense study with session great Bernard Purdie and Saturday Night Livedrummer Shawn Pelton. By the 2000's Rich had become an in-demand player both live and in the studio; appearing on TV shows and movie soundtracks including Dog The Bounty Hunter and One Tree Hill, in addition to the Jennifer Hudson and Amy Adams movie Lullaby.

Chelsea welcomes back friend and comedian Toccara Mallard for a closer look at all things Jennifer Hudson. They laugh their asses off as they unpack the Oscar-winning star's 2012 Weight Watchers-infused memoir, “I Got This: How I Changed My Ways and Lost What Weighed Me Down,” and the juicy moments Jennifer shared —including the infamous Oscars bolero debacle and Oprah yelling at her. Plus, they share a few updates on her romance with Common and her 25(!!!!!!) siblings.
