As the daughter of Goldie Hawn, Kate Hudson grew up no stranger to Hollywood. Yet she found her path to fame not by capitalizing on her mother's name, but by starring in low budget films where she stole the spotlight with her light and loveable screen presence. With an instinct that draws her away from commericial films and towards more artistic endeavors -- she turned down the superstar-making part of Mary Jane in Spider-Man to act in Four Feathers -- Kate is a shoe-in for a future of acting awards and accolades.
