Jennifer Hudson on New Projects, an Unexpected Partnership and Her Obsession With Hairless Cats

As a gamer who has grown up with a deep love for music, talk shows, and animals (especially hairless ones!), I can’t help but admire Jennifer Hudson from afar. Her life is a testament to the power of passion and determination.

Jennifer Hudson is keeping herself quite busy these days. Alongside the launch of season 3 of her talk show, The Jennifer Hudson Show, which premiered yesterday, she’s also focusing on nurturing her 15-year-old son, composing fresh tunes, and collecting awards galore. To top it all off, this EGOT winner has managed to make time for one of her deepest passions: advocating for animal welfare.

In her new collaboration, Hudson is partnering with Dawn dish soap for a commercial highlighting the 45+ years of efforts that the brand has made alongside International Bird Rescue, a renowned global conservation organization specializing in bird rehabilitation. This organization relies exclusively on Dawn to clean and aid wildlife affected by oil spills.

The campaign aligns perfectly across all aspects, with its foundation firmly rooted in Jennifer Hudson’s affection for wildlife. With a chuckle, she admits, “Some say I care more about my animals than people… and maybe that’s accurate!” As a versatile artist, Hudson is the doting owner of her hairless feline companion, Macavity, who often joins her at The Jennifer Hudson Show. More recently, she has added another cat to her family, whom she fondly calls Popcorn.

Personally speaking, I can’t help but adore the essentials that transform my abode into a comfortable haven: “If there’s no Dawn soap on my kitchen counter, then it ain’t truly mine,” I confess to THR. With my son now mastering culinary skills, I’ve found myself shoulder-deep in dishes lately. As for a little-known tip? I use Dawn dish soap to clean my precious jewelry. “I’m deeply invested in my child, my beloved pets, and the sparkle of my jewelry,” I say, and this campaign ticks all the boxes for me.

Temporarily, customers have an opportunity to access a $1 discount coupon for Dawn Platinum EZ-Squeeze by visiting dawnducks.com. In doing so, Dawn will contribute $1 to the International Bird Rescue (up to a total of $100,000).

Regarding her current projects, she’s primarily thinking about Season 3 of her daytime talk show. Additionally, she’s working on some new music, which happens to be her inaugural holiday album set for release on October 18 (with a Target-exclusive CD available for pre-order at present). Above all, she’s dedicating time to being a mother. “My life is rich and I am grateful.
