LOS ANGELES (NEXSTAR) — The 2025 Remarkable Women trip continues to dazzle as the winners took in a true taste of Tinseltown on Monday. The as 125 extraordinary women from across the country got a behind-the-scenes experience at The Jennifer Hudson Show.

After hopping aboard a classic double-decker tour bus for a Hollywood sightseeing adventure, the group made their way to one of the most legendary backlots in the industry: Warner Bros. Studios. For more than a century, movie magic has come to life on the historic grounds. From exploring iconic sets to walking the same streets seen in beloved films and hit shows, it was a fun peek behind the curtain.

But the real spotlight moment came later in the day when the group attended a taping of The Jennifer Hudson Show.

Hudson, an EGOT winner and supporter of the Remarkable Women initiative, first welcomed honorees to her set in 2024. This year, her studio once again opened its doors to our group of changemakers who are improving lives every day.

For many, the experience was emotional. Being in the presence of a woman like Hudson, whose career has been built on resilience, talent, and empowerment, was a powerful reminder of why they do what they do.

“We got to be side to side with all the incredible women while an incredible woman hosted her own talk show,” said Annie Nelson, a Remarkable Woman winner from Nashville. “It absolutely was an incredible day.”

Now in its sixth year, the Remarkable Women initiative, created by Nexstar Media Group, has honored more than 2,500 women since its 2020 launch. Over 50,000 nominations have poured in through more than 200 local stations, with one standout winner from each market selected for this all-expenses-paid trip to Hollywood. The program has also resulted in over $500,000 in charitable donations to causes chosen by the honorees.

With a glamorous awards show still to come, the Hollywood magic is far from over!
