Hello World,

My favorite Christian celebrity, Sherri Shepherd, who graciously allowed me to interview her for my first book, has a reason to celebrate in the new year! Her eponymous talk show “Sherri” has been renewed for TWO more seasons! In her excitement, Sherri told her audience members, “…Jawn [the show’s executive producer], we’ve been through a lot in this journey, in what we wanted to do and accomplish. And the fact that it is happening and the fact that, I just have to say, for those of you, I get emotional, for those of you who feel like nobody is seeing me, nobody is hearing me, but I have so much to give and you feel like it may be too late because you have so much to give, God has not forgotten you. He has not forgotten about you.”

I receive that inspirational message Sherri!

Additionally, Sherri detailed what Oprah said to her when she called to congratulate her! See for yourself below!

And here is an excerpt for PEOPLE magazine’s story about the show renewal…

Shepherd added, “I am so appreciative that Fox and Debmar-Mercury have partnered with me to continue bringing more laughter, joy and inspiration to my audience.”

“We initially sold Sherri for one year based on our strong belief that this extraordinarily talented host would be successful and her show would become a long-term talk franchise,” Debmar-Mercury Co-Presidents Ira Bernstein and Mort Marcus said. “Our thanks go to our good friends and longtime partners at FOX, who shared in our enthusiasm and have renewed their faith in Sherri with this long-term commitment.”

Congratulations to Sherri!!! I believe this is Sherri’s season to reap what she has sown. Legendary journalist Barbara Walters (RIP) truly laid the foundation for Sherri and for others to shine…

Any thoughts?

Hello World,

As one of Sherri Shepherd’s biggest fans (I interviewed her for my first book After the Altar Call: The Sisters’ Guide to Developing a Personal Relationship With God), I’m very much excited to see Sherri have her own talk show SHERRI, which debuts TOMORROW! However, I cannot lie: It’s going to be hard to see a new show in the time slot that was previously held by the Queen of All Media Wendy Williams. That being said, although in various articles, blogs, posts, tweets, etc., it has been insinuated or even flat out said that Sherri stole Wendy Williams’ spot, that is not true. As I’m also a Wendy Williams fan, I’ve had many months to ponder the downfall of The Wendy Williams show and its host Wendy. I truly believe that many factors contributed including but not limited to her divorce, the death of her mother and her empty nest after her son left for college. These factors most likely triggered her to relapse into what appears to be an alcohol addiction. Still, despite what it’s looking like now, I believe that with God, all things are possible. I hope and pray that Wendy develops a personal relationship with God  if she doesn’t have one right now (as Sherri does have a personal relationship with God) and even if she never has a talk show again, she will regain her health and peace of mind. And let’s be clear: no amount of success, personally and professionally, matters if you don’t have a personal relationship with God as your foundation. As the children song states, you’re building your house on sand (personally and professionally) if you don’t have one. Because when the storms arise in life, as they most certainly will (and Sherri has weathered storms), your house will collapse…

And now that I have said that, I can properly celebrate a new chapter in the career of Sherri Shepherd! Check out what she has lined up in the first season of SHERRI because we’re claiming that her new talk show lasts for many seasons ahead…

I’m excited about my premiere on Monday, Sept. 12 & here’s a glimpse at who is helping us kick things off on @SherriShowTV!

I’m proud of the awesome roster of guests my team has lined up for me!

Hello World,

First of all, Happy Mother’s Day to All Mothers, and Happy Mother’s Day to my favorite Christian celebrity Sherri Shepherd, the subject of this post! Also, let me take this opportunity to congratulate Sherri, who I interviewed for my first book, on her upcoming talk show Sherri, which is slated to debut this fall!

Sherri was recently interviewed on PEOPLE Every Day podcast and motherhood came up! Below is an excerpt of what she said, according to PEOPLE magazine…

Parenting for Shepherd, like most parents, has been far from easy. “Being a mother is the biggest accomplishment that I’ve ever had in my life,” she says. “It’s also my biggest insecurity because I always feel like I’m doing it wrong.”

But she hopes that following her own dreams will encourage Jeffrey to do the same: “I’m hoping that my son will see that I am doing what I love and then he will pursue his passion because he sees that his mom is doing it. And I try not to take on that guilt.”
