Mo’nique is back with her own late night tv show.

Fans of Mo’Nique who fretted over her departure from radio may just be in luck. Word is that BET is offering a new late-night show to advertisers next week that will be hosted by the “Queen of Comedy” and called “Breakin’ Up With Mo’Nique,” according to the Los Angeles Times.

Yes, I can’t wait to see Mo’nique host her own talk show. This should be interesting.

Jennifer Hudson Sex and the City

Oscar winner Jennifer Hudson, 26, injects some color and youth into Sex and the City, playing Carrie Bradshaw’s assistant, Louise, from St. Louis. Like her movie boss, Hudson loves her accessories — and learned from writer/director Michael Patrick King how to be hell in heels.

How did you feel when you got the call that they wanted you for this movie?
Oh my God! I was extremely excited once I started watching the show and experiencing it. I was like “Oh my God! They want me to be in this? They want me to be one of these women?”
