She also served as spokesperson for Partners against Pain, Post Cereal’s “Heart Health” campaign, Prilosec and AARP. In seasons 2008-2009 she helped launch CMT’s reality competition hit, Can You Duet as a talent judge. And coming full circle to where we first discovered this unique, captivating personality, Naomi and Wynonna took to the road in 2010 for “The Judds: The Last Encore Tour” and released a new single, “I Will Stand By You.” Chronicling that experience was a hit docu-series, “The Judds,” which premiered April 2011 on OWN: Oprah Winfrey Network. The series followed the award winning mother/daughter duo as they hit the road for their first and final concert tour in ten years. Cameras captured their emotional journey as they worked to heal their relationship, reconnect with the fans and share the spotlight once again.
2012 found Naomi back in the familiar role of radio host with her six-week SiriusXM radio series “Think Twice” which launched nationwide on June 8. She’s also found time to return once again to the small screen for two different roles, one for the Lifetime Movie Network movie The Killing Game, based on the Iris Johansen suspense/thriller bestseller, and the upcoming Hallmark Channel movie The Nearlyweds, premiering in January 2013.
Meanwhile, Naomi continues humanitarian efforts including River Cities Harvest, the Saint Louis University Liver Center, M.A.D.D., Parents Television Council, Make-A-Difference Day, Women’s World Peace Initiative, the National Domestic Violence Hotline, and created her own July 4th Judd’s Annual Food Drive to benefit families of Appalachia. We all know her as a six-time Grammy winning singer. She has scored dozens of top-10 hits and has sold millions of albums as part of country music’s most famous mother-daughter singing duo, The Judds.
