The first guest on Jennifer Hudson's new talk show will be a blast from the past: her former American Idol judge Simon Cowell.
Hudson came in seventh place in the third season of the show, which was won by Fantasia Barrino -- but Hudson went on to become an EGOT winner.
The first installment of the syndicated The Jennifer Hudson Show will mark the first sit-down between Cowell and Hudson since the reality competition.
The chat show's premiere on Monday, September 12, will also feature a birthday party for its host, who turns 41 that day.
