Kate Hudson Gushes Over Taylor Swift, Reveals Favorite Song
In a recent appearance on SiriusXM's Guest DJ Campaign, actress Kate Hudson confirmed her admiration for Taylor Swift, adding yet another high-profile name to the singer's extensive fan base. "I absolutely adore her," Hudson, 45, shared. "It's hard to pick just one Taylor Swift song, but I think I'm gonna go with one from '1989,' which is one of my favorite albums of hers."
Ultimately, Hudson chose "Out of the Woods," a track renowned for its emotional depth and hauntingly beautiful lyrics. The song's intricate storytelling and profound resonance clearly struck a chord with Hudson, who praised its captivating qualities.
Hudson also delighted fans by sharing that her daughter, Rani, is particularly fond of Swift's music, especially the track "Welcome to New York" from the same album. This familial love for Swift's music highlights the widespread and cross-generational appeal of the pop icon's work.
In other news, Hudson was recently spotted attending the Max Mara Resort 2025 fashion show in Venice, Italy, with her children, Rani and Ryder. However, her 12-year-old son Bingham was not present at the event. The family's Italian vacation also featured an intimate birthday dinner for Hudson's fiancé, Danny Fujikawa, who turned 38 on June 10th.
Hudson and Fujikawa have been engaged since September 2021. While the couple has not yet tied the knot, there is growing anticipation that a wedding date may be announced soon. The pair's relationship has been closely followed by fans, who eagerly await further developments.
During her SiriusXM session, Hudson also expressed her admiration for other artists, including Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton. She raved about their new song "Purple Irises," saying, "I love this song. I love them. Gwen is just one of the great people in the world. I have just loved her forever."
The SiriusXM campaign features a star-studded lineup of 70 different entertainers, including Hudson, James Corden, Howard Stern, Kevin Hart, Busy Philipps, and Rob Lowe. Each participant brings their unique tastes and stories to the platform, offering listeners a diverse range of musical insights and personal anecdotes.
James Corden, for example, used his guest spot to reminisce about the inception of "Carpool Karaoke" on The Late Late Show. He revealed that the first-ever song he chose for the segment was Mariah Carey's "You'll Always Be My Baby." Corden recounted the challenging but ultimately successful experience of convincing Carey to sing during the segment, which became a pivotal moment for the show.
"It was an amazing moment for me," Corden shared. "Had she not joined in, I don't think The Late Late Show would've stayed on air, and I certainly don't think I'd be sat here talking to you right now. I will always be grateful to her."
The Guest DJ sessions are available on-demand via the SiriusXM app, allowing fans to enjoy a curated selection of music and stories from their favorite celebrities. This initiative not only showcases the personal music preferences of these stars but also provides an intimate glimpse into their lives and careers.
