Kate Hudson doesn't even think about ageing

Reflecting on the recent praise that she's received, Kate - who is the daughter of singer Bill Hudson and actress Goldie Hawn - told The Hollywood Reporter: "It really does feel humbling.

"But I was saying to my mom the other day, 'People talk about age and I don't even think about it.' I don't think about time backwards. I don't long for anything behind me. I don't know if it's just my nature, but my mom's very similar."

And in spite of her own successes, Kate still has to fight for all of her film projects, insisting that nothing comes easy in the movie business.

The actress observed that Song Sung Blue, her biographical musical drama film, initially struggled to find support from movie studios.

She said: "You realise that there's always an uphill battle in every choice that you really believe in and has to be made."

Meanwhile, Kate previously credited her mom Goldie Hawn for instilling her with a "fearless" attitude.

The actress admitted that she's had to make some tough decisions at some points in her career - but her mom has always been a supportive influence.

Kate - who made her film debut in 1998, when she starred in the drama Desert Blue - told Variety: "Thank God I had a mom who said, 'Make your own way'.

"When you become successful in the arts - and what I mean by 'successful' is when you're making other people a lot of money - people really like to put you in a box. But nobody becomes an artist to be put in a cage.

"As you get older, you realise you're the only one who makes the decision not to allow yourself to be in that cage. It means having to make fearless and risk-taking decisions that are really, really hard to do when you have a status quo that's safe."
