Canada’s Got Talent (CGT) is back! I am honored and privileged to welcome one of my favorite judges, Trish Stratus, to The Jake’s Take with Jacob Elyachar Podcast.
She joined the judges’ table in Season One of the iconic Got Talent franchise alongside Howie Mandel, Lilly Singh, Kardinal Offishall, and guest judge and franchise creator Simon Cowell. She helped make CGT, Citytv’s most-viewed original series in over a decade.
Post-pandemic life has been busy for the WWE Hall of Famer. The eight-time WWE Champion and fitness icon wrapped up 2022 with the release of the holiday movie Christmas in Rockwell, in which she stars. The film made Amazon’s Top 10 romance movies and is now available on DVD and various streaming platforms.
Trish Stratus, named number one on the list of WWE’s Greatest Female Superstars, was inducted into the United States National Pro Wrestling Hall of Fame and was the first woman recipient of the industry’s prestigious Lou Thesz Award.
In addition to her accomplishments in the wrestling world, Trish Stratus also has a fitness lifestyle brand called Startussphere, which stemmed from opening Canada’s largest yoga studio in 2008, that has since spun off into a line of yoga and fitness products in retail stores across Canada. She also has a line of DVDs that feature her signature yoga program, Stratusphere Yoga, which she designed, incorporating strength training into a yoga flow. Her company Stratus Enterprises, Inc., recently won a Canadian Business Award for its online retail platform, which sells the Stratusphere product line, autographed memorabilia, and the hugely popular Wonder Stratus merchandise.
In this special Canada’s Got Talent edition of The Jake’s Take with Jacob Elyachar Podcast, Trish Status previewed the upcoming season, which included how the audience in CGT’s new home of the OLG Stage at the Fallsview Casino played a significant role this season and the qualities she looked for in acts to receive her Golden Buzzer.
Canada’s Got Talent airs on CityTV!
