    Jennifer Hudson’s Memoir I Got This (with Tocarra Mallard)
    Jan 17 2025
    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.

The Best

I truly never thought I’d ever have a parasocial relationship. Then I was introduced to Chelsea Devantez, and now we’re best friends!

I had never read a memoir before listening to this show, and I’m not a celebrity-head at all. But what a good time, and what moving stuff. Thanks for putting in the work for us, Chelsea. It’s a joy.

My favorite podcast

I have listened to every episode of Celebrity Book Club.
It is so much fun, so interesting, and celebrates the importance of women’s stories.
Love Chelsea’s weekly tea time 🫖
