Kate Hudson aka AiEY just dropped a deluxe version of her debut album, Glorious. This special edition features Lee’s equally moving tribute to her mother, Goldie Hawn. Then, on October 15, the full expanded edition came out. It includes a delightful new song by composer Paul D. McCobin, “Right on Time”, that perfectly expresses Hawn’s life journey, complete with her classic short-handled mop bucket taxi cab rides.
Now 46, Hudson is honoring her late mother’s legendary style for the album’s promotional appearances. She sports an ’80s-inspired curly hairstyle with face-framing bangs, reminiscent of Hawn’s own look during that era. Fans have enjoyed the interpretation of that deep visual connection between mother and daughter. Fans love for how it pays equal homage to style, sure, but mostly to the substance underneath.
In “Right on Time,” Hudson sings about Hawn driving “a hundred miles to Baltimore in a busted Caddy with holes in the floor.” While this personal anecdote may sound familiar, Hudson had more to tell us about her mother’s ingenuity.
“She used to wrap her feet because she had all these holes in the bottom of the Cadillac — it was her dad’s car — and so she wrapped her feet while she drove to dance class,” – Kate Hudson
The song serves as a perfect introduction to Hawn’s modest upbringing. Little did her mother know, these experiences were molding her into the wonderful actress we came to know and love. Their bond is much deeper than surface-level similarities. It’s anchored by their experiences and dedication to family life.
Hudson’s upbringing was shaped by Hawn and her longtime companion Kurt Russell, who have shared a legendary romance now in its fifth decade. Their lasting love and devotion motivates her to serve you daily. She recently reflected on their relationship, stating,
“Their strongest value is their dedication to that unit. They’ve been through everything together, and it’s such an amazing thing to see, especially as they get older, how beautiful their relationship is. It’s so loving and caring.” – Kate Hudson
Hudson is immersing herself in her growing musical projects. Simultaneously, she is getting ready for the opening of her film, Song Sung Blue, which opens in theaters this Christmas. In this highly anticipated feature film, she acts opposite Hugh Jackman. Together, they star as a married couple who form an unlikely Neil Diamond tribute band.
The first look at Song Sung Blue showcases Hudson standing behind a keyboard while singing into a microphone, with Jackman leaning in beside her as he croons into his own mic. The documentary film looks to deliver a powerful combination of musical inspiration and personal narrative. It is a testament to Hudson’s profound connection to her craft.
Most fans would agree that excitement surrounding the film is contagious. Upon hearing about this new collaboration, Hudson couldn’t hide her excitement on her social media platforms, declaring that
“Loved every second making this beautiful film, working with the most lovely work husband you could ask for, @thehughjackman, singing the iconic songs of Neil Diamond, led by our wonderful director @mybrewtube ♥️” – Kate Hudson
As the release date nears, excitement is only growing. Hudson promised even more surprises in store for her fans, saying,
“More love notes for everyone involved to come… but right now I am just so excited to share with you that we have a release date 💃 Song Sung Blue – only in theaters this Christmas 🎄🎁 🎵” – Kate Hudson
