Ahh, this was such a PINCH ME moment. I am such a huge fan of Jennifer's and I can't wait for you all to listen!
I am joined by the one and only, Jennifer Gibgot. Jennifer is a Hollywood film producer. She's produced some of my favourite ROM COM'S of all time. Let me just name a few: All of the Step Up's including the first one with Channing Tatum, 17 Again with Zac Efron, She's all that with Rachel Leigh Cook, Usher & Paul Walker, Cheaper by the Dozen with Steve Martin, Rock of Ages with Tom Cruise, The Last Song with Liam Hemsworth and Miley Cyrus, Hairspray with John Travolta, The Pacific with Vin Diesel, and The Wedding Planner with Jennifer Lopez, Going the Distance with Drew Berrymore. She's also sister to Adam Shankman(Director), and together they started Offspring Entertainment.
Jennifer is such a strong, and powerful woman in the industry. She really brings a lot of insight and wisdom to anyone interested in entering the entertainment industry.
In this episode, we chat about how she got started, why she never doubted her abilities and why confidence played a key factor in her success, we chat about some of her favourite films shes produced, we talk about filming AFTER and her relationship with Anna Todd and the main stars (Hero & Jo), filming 2 movies during a pandemic (He's all that with Addison Rae), and the last 2 AFTER movies, and any advice she has for someone wanting to go into the industry.
