In 2024, Goldie Hawn has been vocal about her praise for daughter Kate Hudson’s latest effort in music. Admittedly, of course, she is known for her acting career—from the blockbuster Almost Famous to How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days—but fans were surprised recently with the release of her debut album, Glorious, in May 2024.
Although she actually has a recording history with an album in 1972, Hawn publicly expressed how proud and thrilled she is of Kate’s achievement. Talking of her daughter at some public function, Hawn candidly said, “She’s got talent.” According to Hawn, Hudson really worked hard to learn the art of singing. “It wasn’t a natural transition for Kate,” she said, but one she stuck with over time.
Kate Hudson’s foray into music had been closely followed and supported by her family. In fact, her stepfather, Kurt Russell, himself had to feel proud of Kate Hudson’s boldness about pursuing a dream that she entertained for a long time. To say the least, Oliver Hudson, Kate’s brother, said of her, “She was never afraid of insecurity about her singing talent; indeed, it is inspiring to see her take up a challenge amid risk.”.
Hudson’s debut in music shocked most industry folk who did not know what to think, while her family was one of her biggest supporters. The family celebrated her new career with a Love-In Gala in Beverly Hills, where Hudson sang a duet of Cellblock Tango with Martin Short to thunderous applause from the celebrity crowds, including Fergie and Demi Moore.
Support from the family has been vocal: Kate’s new role as a singer also fits the mould of the Goldie Hawn Foundation’s MindUP program, which concentrates its efforts in areas of mental health and wellbeing, dear to Hawn’s heart. Hawn long ago became an advocate for initiatives in the areas of emotional and mental health, and seeing her daughter have this kind of success in a creative field seems to be a source of certain personal satisfaction for both women.
While further blending the lines that might have been drawn between her and her mother, who has always been an entertainer in multiple roles, Hudson’s entry into music reflects the deep bond she shares with her mother regarding creative pursuits.
The move to music has been a bold move for Hudson, but kudos and encouragement have helped her family, particularly Goldie Hawn, to face such new challenges in creativity. Fans and families wait in apprehension where the music career is headed with Hudson’s ventures, as her initial steps had indicated dedication to growth and embracing her musical side.
This is not only a development in Kate Hudson’s life but also an emotional pointer to the very support system of family, which always characterized her professional life. Goldie Hawn is proud because of the fact that she and her daughter share close relationships, and her words have captured the public as Kate Hudson’s journey as a singer continues to unfold in 2024.
