Kate Hudson is an American actress, the daughter of Goldie Hawn and musician Bill Hudson, who divorced when she was a child. She was raised by Hawn and actor Kurt Russell. At 17, Hudson decided she would be an actress, hired an agent, and popped up in five forgettable films before her breakthrough role in 2000's Almost Famous. She has appeared in an long line of forgettable films since, including How to Lose a Guy in Ten Days, Alex and Emma, Le Divorce, and Raising Helen. She was almost Spider-Man's girlfriend, but the role went to Kirsten Dunst when Hudson chose to do The Four Feathers instead.
