Kate Hudson's mother Goldie Hawn gushes over her music career: 'She's got talent'

The Hudson clan is in total harmony when it comes to Kate Hudson's recently launched singing career.

Hudson's family — mother Goldie Hawn, stepfather Kurt Russell and brother Oliver Hudson — showed their support for the actress's foray into music while attending Hawn's Love-In Gala in Beverly Hills, California, on Friday.

Hudson, known for her roles in "Almost Famous," "How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days" and "Bride Wars," released her debut album "Glorious" in May. The 12-track LP, which features collaborations with 4 Non Blondes singer Linda Perry and Hudson's fiancé Danny Fujikawa, peaked at No. 3 on Billboard's Heatseekers Albums chart upon its release.

"Isn't it great?" Hawn said of Hudson's musical venture in an interview with Us Weekly published Monday. "She is successful, but she is also talented. She knows how to sing. She's got talent."

Hudson took the stage at Hawn's gala, performing a series of covers — including a rendition of the show tune classic "The Lady is a Tramp" — and a pair of selections from "Glorious."

"Talent is a very interesting thing because you either have it or you don't really," Hawn continued. "She's worked hard to learn to sing. … That stuff doesn't happen. It only happens with intention."

Kurt Russell, Oliver Hudson praise 'inspirational' Kate Hudson

Hawn's longtime boyfriend Russell told Us Weekly he was "proud" of Hudson for pursuing her music career.

"She's had a desire, always," Russell told the outlet. "But what's nice is that she decided to just say, 'I'm going to do this' and go spend her own money, go do it, and she's good at it."

Hudson's brother Oliver similarly praised the Golden Globe winner for her determination, calling her a "fearless human being through and through."

"I think as far as singing goes, it was the one thing that kind of stuck where it was like, 'Man, I don't know if I can do this. I have insecurity around it,' " Oliver recalled. "She just basically said, '(Expletive) it. Let me just take the shot, take the chance, put it out there.' That's inspirational because you could fall flat on your face."

Kate Hudson explains foray into music: 'It was my first love'

During a May appearance on "The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon," Hudson opened up about the launch of her music career.

"I love music. I've loved music my entire life. It was my first love, and I've been writing music my whole life," Hudson told Fallon at the time. "And I thought it was something I'd only have for myself until, like, COVID. And then I was like, 'I'll regret not just putting it out in the world. ' "

In another interview with "CBS Sunday Morning," Hudson said she's been songwriting "really poorly" for "my whole life," but she'd started writing the tracks on "Glorious" two years ago.

"I guess I wasn't ready for it until now" Hudson said in April. "I just don't care anymore about what people think, probably. It was never right, whether it was my own stuff or feeling afraid to mess up my movie career — just never felt right until now. I'm just doing it."

Goldie Hawn dishes on key to relationship success with Kurt Russell

During an interview with E! News at the Love-In Gala, Hawn revealed one of the secrets to her long-term union with Russell.

"You have to have good sex," Hawn told the outlet. "Because sex is something that connects you and creates more belonging. People who have healthy sexual relationships usually last a lot longer. But it's not just because of the act, it's because of the warmth and the intimacy that it creates."

Hawn, who's been dating Russell since 1983, also stressed the importance of maintaining one's individuality in relationships.

"You know you're not the same person," Hawn said. "You don't think the same way oftentimes. And you have to accept that, but you have to measure are we having fun, or is this something we want to do? Do we have laughs together? Do we share certain things? You don't have to share everything."

She added: "We have a lot of expectation, I think, around relationships, but you have to like the person. That's very important."
