Kate Hudson may have just had a baby with husband Chris Robinson of The Black Crowes, but that doesn’t mean she’s following Gwyneth Paltrow’s lead and talking about giving up her day job.
Quite the opposite, in fact, as her new film, Raising Helen, which opens in the US next weekend, could work the same kind of magic for her that Pretty Woman did for Julia Roberts.
It’s directed by the same man, Garry Marshall, for a start, and the buzz in Hollywood is that Hudson does a great job playing a flighty fashion magazine editor who takes in her dead husband’s three kids.
“I always wanted to be a young mum,” said Goldie Hawn’s 25-year-old daughter, who gave birth to a boy in January. “I don’t think being a mother takes away from being sexy. In fact, I think it just adds to the whole dimension of what it is to be female.”
