Jennifer Hudson Is Serving Holiday Cheer and High Notes Like It’s a Full-Time Job

Buy Me A Coffee

Jennifer Hudson just dropped into the holiday season like Santa with a microphone and a sequined sleigh. The EGOT queen (that’s Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, and Tony for the uninitiated) has kicked off her “Gift of Love” holiday tour, and it’s already shaping up to be as fabulous as a glitter-covered fruitcake.

Tour Kickoff: Brooklyn Gets the First Present
Jennifer launched her five-show mini-tour on Sunday night (November 24) at Brooklyn’s Kings Theatre—a venue so majestic it probably bows down every time she hits those iconic high notes. This isn’t just any tour, people. This is The Gift of Love: An Intimate Live Experience—a name so cozy, it practically comes with hot cocoa and a weighted blanket.

But don’t let “intimate” fool you. When Jennifer Hudson sings, even the glitter in Times Square probably paused to listen.

Tour Stops: Coast-to-Coast Yuletide Magic
From Brooklyn to Chicago (December 13), Los Angeles (December 18), and a double dose of Vegas (December 21 and 22), JHud is spreading holiday cheer like Oprah handing out cars. “You get a song! You get a song! EVERYBODY GETS A SONG!”

Oh, and don’t worry—it’s not just holiday tunes. She’s sprinkling in some of her all-time hits too, so expect everything from Christmas carols to powerhouse ballads that might just knock your Christmas tree over.

Old Navy Surprise: Santa, Who?
Before the tour even began, Jennifer popped into Old Navy in Times Square, proving that even megastars love a good holiday sale. Dressed in velvet, faux fur, and what can only be described as diva-approved holiday glam, she gave unsuspecting shoppers the gift of a lifetime. Imagine browsing sweaters and suddenly hearing that voice? That’s like finding a golden ticket in your holiday socks.

No word on whether she also snagged some $5 fuzzy socks or matching PJs.

Set List Reveal (Sort Of)
Jennifer’s first-night set list has been unveiled, but let’s keep it real—this could change faster than your holiday plans when Aunt Carol announces she’s bringing her “special” fruitcake again. If you’re lucky enough to attend, expect a mix of holiday magic and chart-topping bops. And yes, bring tissues. This woman didn’t win all those awards for nothing.

1. Santa For Someone
2. Jingle Bells
3. Little Drummer Boy
4. O Holy Night
5. Go Tell It On The Mountain
6. Mary, Did You Know?
7. Hallelujah
8. Aretha Franklin Tribute (Natural Woman / Respect)
9. Find The Love
10. Spotlight
11. Where You At
12. The Christmas Song (Chestnuts Roasting On An Open Fire)
13. And I Am Telling You I’m Not Going

Tickets: Run, Don’t Walk
If you’re not already furiously Googling tickets, what are you doing? Hop on Ticketmaster or try your luck on Stubhub because this tour is hotter than roasted chestnuts on an open fire.

Whether you’re there for the music, the holiday spirit, or just to witness Jennifer Hudson being Jennifer Hudson, one thing is clear: this tour is the perfect way to sleigh (pun fully intended) your holiday season. 🎄
