Forget resolutions and dry January; ABC’s “GMA3: What You Need to Know” is kicking off the new year with a dose of star power. On Monday, December 30, 2024, the show welcomes a constellation of celebrity authors to discuss their latest literary endeavors and, perhaps, offer a few predictions for the year ahead.
Sure, New Year’s predictions are about as reliable as a Times Square Elmo, but who can resist the allure of famous faces sharing their thoughts? Among the guests are Matt Barnes and Stephen Jackson, the outspoken hosts of the “All the Smoke” podcast.
Award-winning actress Uzo Aduba will be present to discuss her book, “The Road Is Good: How a Mother’s Strength Became a Daughter’s Purpose.”
Music fans can look forward to an appearance by GRAMMY® Award-winning singer Eve, best known for her late-90s/early-2000s hits like “Who’s That Girl?” While her book might not top the Billboard charts, her perspective on the music industry should be worth tuning in for.
Rounding out the author lineup are tennis icon Venus Williams, discussing her book, “Strive: 8 Steps to Find Your Awesome,” and Matthew McConaughey, who’ll likely drop some “alright, alright, alright” wisdom related to his book, “Greenlights.”
“GMA3: What You Need to Know” airs at 1:00 p.m. EST on ABC and 4:00 p.m. and 6:00 p.m. EST on ABC News Live. It’s a safe bet that this episode will offer a more engaging start to the new year than doomscrolling through social media.
