Known for: Bouncy locks of blonde hair, and living a carefree rock and roll lifestyle both on and off the silver screen.
The spawn of the ultimate '70s no-nonsense, casual sex symbol, Goldie Hawn, Kate Hudson's public persona is all about being easy going and living a rock and roll lifestyle. Who else combines so well the glamor of red carpet glitz with the party-with-abandon grime of a Backstage Betty? Hell, she was even nominated for an Oscar for her breakout role as Penny "not a groupie" Lane in Almost Famous, and her subsequent rocky marriage to the Black Crowes frontman Chris Robinson gave the enterprise a ring of truth. Although Hudson has dabbled in Buddhism, she considers herself Jewish, thanks to a maternal grandmother who descended from the Hebrews of Eastern Europe, Italy and Hungary - not bad for a shiksa-looking blonde.
