Jennifer Hudson is getting her own talk show and "If This Isn't Love," we don't know what is.
On March 2, Fox announced that the American Idol alum and Grammy Award-winning artist is getting a talk show on its network. The one-hour daytime show, The Jennifer Hudson Show, is set to premiere this Fall and it seems like Hudson is just as excited as we are.
"I have experienced so much in my life," Hudson said in a statement. "I've seen the highest of the highs, the lowest of the lows, and just about everything in between but as my mother always told me, ‘Once you think you've seen it all, just keep on living."
"People from around the world," she continued, "have been a part of my journey from the beginning– twenty years ago–and I'm so ready to join their journey as we sit down and talk about the things that inspire and move us all. I have always loved people and I cannot wait to connect on a deeper level and let audiences see the different sides of who I am, the human being, in return."
And the network thinks that Hudson will "reenergize talk shows."
"I knew that Jennifer was a force to be reckoned with from the moment I met her nearly 20 years ago," President, Warner Bros. Unscripted Television, Mike Darnell said. "From her Grammy-winning career in music, to her Oscar-winning acting career, Jennifer's amazing talent, big heart and authenticity shine through in everything she does.
He continued, "I am thrilled to be working with her in this new role. She's a natural, and I know audiences will embrace her in their homes every day."
Hudson will add "talk show host" to her already impressive resume, which includes an Academy Award, a Daytime Emmy Award, a Golden Globe Award, and a Screen Actors Guild Award.
Back in November, the news first broke that the Dreamgirls star may be getting a show, with hopes to launch after The Ellen DeGeneres Show ends its 19 season-run this year.
The Jennifer Hudson Show premieres this fall on Fox.
