Hill appeared on Gerard Way's original song "Here Comes the End" on display in the Umbrella Academy's second season on July 8, 2020.

Hill was selected as Michael Jackson's duet partner for the This Is It concerts in 2009; she toured for months with Jackson until his death on June 25, 2009.

The concerts were postponed due to Michael Jackson's death. Hill and the rest of the This Is It cast members attended Jackson's memorial service at the Staples Center in downtown Los Angeles on July 7, 2009. She drew worldwide notice when she sang lead on the album "Heal the World," which was one of the climactic moments of the service.

In the to-be This Is It concert, Hill also paid tribute to Jackson, "I Will Always Be Missing You." It was offered as a free download from her website beginning late 2009 and was released on iTunes on January 26, 2010 (the same day as the This Is It DVD release) — with all proceeds going to Childhelp USA.

Hill auditioned for The Voice's fourth season. All four judges, Adam Levine, Shakira, Usher, and Blake Shelton sang "What a Girl Wants" by Christina Aguilera in the first episode of the season broadcast on March 25, 2013. She selected Team Adam after a difficult decision. "She's going to be a Grammy Award-winning actress, and she's on my team," Levine said.

Hill faced Karina Iglesias in the battle rounds, performing "It's Man's Man's World" alongside Amanda Brown and Trevin Hunte's "Vision of Love" and also Jesse Campbell and Anthony Evan's "If I Ain't Got You" was one of the best fights in Voice history. Levine opted to move on from his team, thus the Knockout Rounds were scheduled. Hill was paired against Orlando Dixon in the Knockout Rounds and triumphed. She has therefore reached the top 16 of the live shows. She had been considered a front-runner in the tournament, but she was disqualified on May 28, 2013. Sarah Simmons and her colleague Sarah Simmons' exits at the Top 8 show was one of the season's most shocking. "It's a sad loss for the show," Judith had the kind of vocal chops and stage presence that should definitely be rewarded by such a competition," said Said Katy Kroll of Rolling Stone.

Performances on The Voice:

In the documentary film 20 Feet from Stardom, which premiered at the 2013 Sundance Film Festival and opened in American theaters on June 14, 2013, Hill and several backup singers are included.

The Best Music Film award was also given to the featured artists and the production crew in 2015.

Prince William welcomed representatives from many Minnesota media outlets to view Hill's debut album at Paisley Park on March 22, 2015. Back in Time, which Hill's two or three weeks as producer, featured six picks from the Prince's house. "It's the fastest album I've ever made," he said. Prince surprisingly did not discover Hill on The Voice or in Michael Jackson's film This Is It, where she appeared as a backup singer in rehearsal for his forthcoming tour. When he saw a video clip of her being interviewed on a Revolt TV show, he knew she was interested in working with Prince George, she said she'd like to work with him.
