Following Her Personal Path
Hudson launched from her parents’ fame to strike a worthy individual career. She would build her reputation by taking on numerous tiny parts, finally cracking her career-defining role in the ironically named movie Almost Famous. Her performance as Penny Lane, a follower of the band Stillwater, earned her an Oscar nomination for Best Supporting Actress.
An Adoring Friendship
Although plenty of kids struggle to welcome in a stepparent, Hudson was lucky as she took to Kurt happily and openly. They are still amazingly bonded. Russel is more of a father to Kate than her real one, who she claimed had no interest in interacting with her. This unconventional relationship between Hudson and Russel is easily understood as he has been there for Kate from the time she was a baby.
