…’: Kate Hudson reveals her adventurous side
What does Kate Hudson do when she’s not diving with sharks or hurtling down a black run? Stretch out in the pool and relax, of course.
Being the daughter of a Hollywood legend doesn’t guarantee your name in lights. For Kate Hudson, whose mother is Goldie Hawn, it has taken determination to achieve stardom in her own right. At 28, she has fame, wealth and box-office clout – and now she wields serious power, producing her first film, Bride Wars, in which she also stars.
Kate Hudson has denied she was a spoiled child - because she always flew economy.
The actress - whose mother is screen legend Goldie Hawn - says her parents refused too pay first class air fare for four children.
She tells Britain’s Daily Mail newspaper, “It’s funny, because everybody thinks I was spoiled and flew first class everywhere, but it’s not true.
“My parents had four children and they weren’t going to pay thousands of dollars for our air fares – can you imagine the cost? They wouldn’t do that.
“We didn’t care – we had each other to play with at the back of the plane, while my parents were traveling in luxury at the front.”
Happy New Year to all Kate’s Korner visitors. It’s been a while since I did a gallery update, so I’ve been working on the movies section today. I’ve added stills from Bride Wars, Fool’s Gold and My Best Friend’s Girl.

Kate Hudson has confessed that she doesn’t think monogamy is a natural human trait.
The actress, who was married to Black Crowes frontman Chris Robinson for seven years, told The Sunday Times Magazine that her ability to stay faithful is difficult as she is “ruled by sexual energy”.
She explained: “I got into this very controversial discussion once. I was married at the time and I was asked, ‘Do you think monogamy is possible?’ And I said, ‘No, I don’t think we are made to be monogamous, we are animals.’
“If you have that personality, it’s never going to go away because you are ruled by your sexual energy.”
Kate Hudson may be “a hot ticket” in the dating world, according to her good friend, designer Stella McCartney, but the actress says she’s in no rush to jump into a relationship.
“I’m actually enjoying being single right now because I really never have been,” Hudson – who’s dated Lance Armstrong and Owen Wilson – tells InStyle magazine for its January issue.
“I feel good in relationships,” says the 29-year-old actress. “I enjoy them, so I feel my best when I’m in something solid. But it’s also the first time I’ve ever taken a step back and gotten a new perspective.”
“So,” concludes Hudson, “I’ve made a conscious decision to try to stay single as long as possible.”
McCartney, who interviewed Hudson for the magazine, chimes in, joking, “What’s it been – all of two weeks? Congratulations!”
“Exactly,” quips Hudson, who McCartney says has “always been in demand.”
There is, however, one man who will always be in her life: Ryder, her son with ex-husband Chris Robinson.
The Bride Wars star says she plans to take a break next year from her busy work schedule so that she can spend more time with her son, who turns 5 next month.
“When he climbs into bed with me, wraps his arms around me and says, ‘Mommy, the sun’s up! It’s a beautiful morning!’ I’m sorry, do I really want to go to work then?” she asks. “No!”
Kate Hudson may be a svelte Hollywood star, but she reckons her slim figure is not down to watching the calories.
“I’m not a dieter,” she tells Entertainment Tonight. “I’m in the wrong family to be a dieter. My mum [Goldie Hawn] is always making chicken and dumplings.”
The actress says that her active lifestyle helps her stay in shape, and she is keen to test her competitive streak by taking part in a triathlon.
She said: “Sports are big in my life. I swim, run, bike and dance, play volleyball and soccer, and I want to start training for a triathlon. I’m one of those people who love to be active.”
The 29-year-old blonde beauty said her love of sport helped her lose 50lbs after her son Ryder - her child with ex-husband Christ Robinson - was born four years ago.
Instead of working out in a gym, Kate decided to have fun while she lost weight, playing the sports she enjoyed.
She said: “I dance - I’m pretty active,” she says. “Pilates is really good. I like being outside a lot.”
She added: “Life is too short to be concerned with anything but having a great time.”
The actress also admits she is growing tired of rumors she is pregnant with her second child, insisting her body is constantly changing.
Kate explained: It has been said maybe four times recently that I’m pregnant. Because I’m leaning over in the picture. You think about it, and you’re like, ‘What are you doing?’ It’s all bulls**t. Excuse my language, but it is. Women’s bodies change - they change all the time.”
Sam has asked me to take care of the site for her, while I’m assured she will still post from time to time. I’ve been adding news the last few days, and today I’ve done my first gallery update. I’m concentrating on Kate’s appearances from this year, and so far I’ve added three events. It doesn’t sound like much, but there’s about 350 images all together.

Kate Hudson has admitted that she will scale back her spending this Christmas.
Speaking at a press conference to promote her upcoming film Bride Wars, the actress claimed that she expects to be affected by the global economic recession.
“I think it’s a really weird time and I think that everyone is feeling it,” she remarked.
The 29-year-old added that she will likely knit presents for her friends and relatives.
“We’ve always been pretty crafty anyway. We all knit. The girls knit. This year I’m doing these great big knit… well, actually I shouldn’t even talk about it because I can’t say it!”
Hudson’s Bride Wars arrives in cinemas on January 9.

Hudson says that she was so obsessed with an unnamed bachelor, she tried to manipulate meetings in the hope he would ask her out.
“I did go through this stalker phase. I was completely crazy about this one guy and used to drive by his house and get my friends to call me up if they saw him in a restaurant so I could show up,” she said.
