Kate Hudson: 'Of Course They Hate Us'
Newsmax.com ^ | 7-25-03 | Carl Limbacher

If you're an American and you go near Kate Hudson, keep your mouth shut, and stay away from the condiments.

She's been filming her latest movie, "Le Divorce," in Paris, and she obviously prefers the company of Parisians to folks like us.

Since she's been in 'Gay Paree', Hudson has apparently grown accustomed to the somber qualities of the continental Europeans, rather than the happy-go-lucky character of real Americans.

In an interview, she said, "Sometimes I'll be walking down the street and I'll hear some American and I'll just go, 'Of course they hate us, of course they can't stand us.'"

Some American? Is she now excluding herself?

Mrs. Robinson continued: "We're the most annoying, boisterous creatures in the world. I mean we come in and we eat mounds of food, and we're like, 'Where's the kaachup [sic] for our French fries.' I'm like, 'Shut up!'"

Preferring one condiment to another on fries - say for instance gravy, as in Canada, or mayonnaise, as in Holland - is a sign of obnoxiousness?

We think not, Kate. We think that perhaps you should stay in France if you like it there, and we'll stay here and stop seeing your movies.

Oops! Judging from the box office results of "Alex & Emma," it looks like we already have!

Chris Robinson was angry that he couldn't buy beer in Colorado after midnight a few years ago, and SPIT in the poor clerk's face at the convenience store...

American cultures tolerates, no, DEMANDS, being louder and more aggressive than what is considered polite in other cultures, so it's quite common for American tourists to come off as big-mouthed pushy jerks without meaning to or realizing it.

It certainly doesn't justify hatred though.

Sorry, you got the story wrong.

It was 1991, twelve years ago. You know, he would have been like 23 at the time. Secondly, he spit on the floor during a verbal altercation with a woman who was berating him and her friend who had recognized Chris and spoke.

He readily admits he was a jackass from time to time in his younger days. Hell, many people were and then matured.

Kate Hudson ready for maternity clothes Associated Press

NEW YORK - Kate Hudson loves to shop, so naturally she's looking forward to buying maternity clothes now that she's pregnant.

"I've been waiting for this moment," the actress tells InStyle magazine for its August issue. "I can't wait until it's time to find fun and stylish maternity wear. I'm actually more excited about dressing as a pregnant woman. You get to present something so completely female."

Hudson, 24, and her husband, former Black Crowes lead singer Chris Robinson, announced in June that they're expecting their first child. The baby is due sometime early next year.

"I can't wait to bring a little human being onto this planet!" Hudson tells the magazine. "When it happens, it will be the most beautiful thing in the world."

The Black Crowes were one of the most talented, underrated bands of the 1990s. Chris Robinson's voice is perfect for rock and roll.

Yup, and a band that I have the upmost respect for due to them not comproimising their principles and giving into corporate sponsorship that they disagreed with. They gave up a almost certain long, lucrative career to play by their own rules. Heck, its hard to name another band in history of their popularity that ws kicked off a tour for talking down the sponsor.

The most popular accompaniments for fries in Canada, in order, are (1) ketchup (2) salt and vinegar (3) soft processed cheese (a Quebec invention known as "poutine"). Gravy certainly exists and gets eaten, but is not usually available at fast-food outlets.

I'm surprised there are still enough American tourists in France to irritate Miss Hollywood.

A lot of Canadians like salt and vinegar on their fries. Some even like relish on them. Some sicker ones like gravy, ketchup, and relish.

I guess I'm sick, cause I like brown gravy on my fries. Actually, I just get a small bowl of it, and dip 'em.

My brother learned to like his french fries soaked in mustard. That way, no one else would steal them in the cafeteria at school. I told him it would be much easier just to punch the offenders in the mouth. You see, he was the politician, I was... well, not so political.

He turned out okay though...

She's the moron who passed on the (award-winning) girlfriend role in "Spiderman" to be in "The Four Feathers."


Urget message to Kate's brain - See what happens when you leave this idiot to make decisions and talk without you being aroud.
