J. Hud Smashes In

Jennifer Hudson is pulling an Uma Thurman and heading to the New York City of TV’s Smash.

The Oscar- and Grammy-winning multi-hyphenate is joining the show next season for multiple eps, playing a Tony Award-winning star who has a great influence on the path of Katharine McPhee and Meghan Hilty’s characters.

Mmm...perhaps I should use part of my summer to catch up on Smash? I love me some J. Hud, so if there ever was a reason to, already, it’s her.
