Not boss lady, mama, and all the other titles in the world. The first check-in is, Okay, how am I feeling today? And then, what would be that one thing if I can’t do nothin’ else in this busy day, what is the one thing I can do that I can say I did for me?,” the multifaceted entertainer, mother, friend, and fan of Christmas music.

Hudson had the chance to collaborate with the Queen of Christmas on the remake of her track “ Oh Santa!” in 2020 (which also featured Arianna Grande). Hudson will release her very own Christmas album, ‘The Gift of Love’ on October 18. Revealing “She’s always been a holiday stan, something she bonded with Carey over.”
