Jennifer Hudson loves to support up-and-coming performers and provide a platform for them to share their talents with the world!

JHud’s “Spotlight” series gives the “Jennifer Hudson Show” stage over to amazing talents from across the globe so they can show off what they do best, be it singing, dancing, or playing an instrument.

Check out our “Spotlight” performers and remember their names, because these entertainers are definitely going places!
