About Kate Hudson
Before warming up her vocals for Nine, she taught us How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days, and she became more famous than Almost Famous. Despite being the offspring of Hollywood luminaries, Kate Hudson is now carving out a name for herself as a legendary performer. She’s the celebrity we’d most like to call our BFF because of her extensive series of well-known beaus and her charming, effervescent girl next door charm.
Goldie and Kate
Kate was born in Los Angeles to comedian Bill Hudson and actress Goldie Hawn, and her early years were everything but a fairy tale appropriate for the big screen. Only 18 months old at the time, Kate’s parents divorced. However, Kate and her mother did not spend much time alone. After three years of juggling her most challenging role to date—that of a single mother—Goldie started dating actor Kurt Russell. He soon moved in with the blonde mother and daughter unit, and Kate was quickly referring to him as “dad.”
When Kate, at 17 years old, earned her first acting gig—a guest appearance on the TV show Party of Five—in 1996, she demonstrated that she was indeed her mother’s daughter. After receiving her high school diploma the following year, Kate applied to and was admitted to NYU’s Tisch School of the Arts. But Kate made the decision to postpone her acceptance and concentrate on her debut movie, Desert Blue, alongside Casey Affleck and Christina Ricci.
Almost Famous
But new parts kept flooding in, and school continued getting put on hold. Later, Kate made appearances in the movies 200 Cigarettes (1999), Gossip (2000), and Almost Famous (2000). Kate became the face of the new generation of rising stars after the film’s popularity. However, Kate’s portrayal as the roving “band-aid” Penny Lane earned her a Golden Globe for Best Supporting Actress and an Academy Award nomination. It wasn’t just spectators who fell in love with the bohemian blonde.
Aside from being nominated for a Golden Man that year, Kate was also able to bring one home with her and start a family. This was in the year 2000. At her mother and Russell’s Colorado house, Kate married Black Crowes musician Chris Robinson in December 2000, two years after the two first met.
Ryder Russell Robinson, the couple’s first child, was born in January 2004.
Royalty in Rom-Com
Three years later, Kate solidified her position as the undisputed queen of the romantic comedy when she appeared in movies like Bride Wars, Fool’s Gold, How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days, You, Me, and Dupree, and Alex & Emma (2009).
Kate’s work was impeccable, but her marriage was not. In 2006, she and Robinson divorced after six years of marriage.
However, Kate didn’t go without a support system—she was seen growing quite close to her You, Me, and Dupree co-star Owen Wilson. The relationship fizzled out, though, and Kate went on to score A-list flings with Dax Shepard, Lance Armstrong, and Alex Rodriguez, to name a few, before she began canoodling with English Muse singer Matt Bellamy in 2010. They are expecting their first child together, Kate’s second, and the relationship is still going strong.
After getting a big break with Almost Famous, Kate never lost steam, and today she is anything but. Although the Academy may not be giving this megastar the same kind of attention that they once did, the fans and the box office have spoken, and it appears that this vivacious blonde is here to stay.
“I can’t go two months without being pregnant, engaged, or breaking up because I’m too needy, which is always the one they love.”
