Just One of The Guys! An Interview w/ Denise (Toni Hudson)

November 26, 2016

Just One of the Guys is a 80’s teen film about a girl donning a male disguise to get the respect that she deserves.  Then she whips out her boobies at prom. The film’s gender equality message is just as relevant today as it was back 1985. And boobies are more popular than ever!
Today’s episode is my interview with Toni Hudson. She’s the total fox who played Denise – Terry’s witty best friend. I describe her as the sexy Ethel Mertz of this movie. For the record, she totally agrees with me.
Toni was on set during the entire filming of the movie, so she has ALL the stories. Including hanging out with Bruce Springsteen when he came to visit! Toni is still friends with her castmates and she was responsible for getting everybody together to celebrate the film’s 30th anniversary.
This interview goes into depths about Toni’s experiences on set and the vulnerability that comes with being a young actress in Hollywood. We also discuss all her upcoming projects (Just One of the Guys sequel?!?!)  as well as her experiences rebuilding her life from the ground up. She’s brutally honest, and I have a lot of respect for this amazing woman.
I hope you enjoy the interview, and if you’d like to learn more about Toni Hudson’s impressive resume, click here.
