Casey Wilson on Bride Wars
January 9th, 2009
This week, I tried to get back on the healthy track. (You never know when The Biggest Loser’s Jillian Michaels will pop by the office!)
With limited cooking skills and even less sense of portion control, I turned to The Fresh Diet, a gourmet delivery company that drops off three meals and two snacks daily to your house. The only cleanup I had to do was of the ice packs in the cooler. Easy and delish!
It’s something Kate Hudson’s character, Liv, should have done before trying to squeeze into a wedding dress in the new comedy, Bride Wars, which opens today.
Saturday Night Live regular Casey Wilson co-penned the script.
“My writing partner June Raphael and I had never written anything, so we got a pitch together and took it to Kate and she, God bless her, gave us a chance, and the job,” Casey tells me.
Getting to know Kate was even better. “It’s all true. She is that adorable and smart and fun, and she’s got a great sense of humor,” Casey gushes. “I was just surprised I got to hang around with her.”
Casey will be back at work tomorrow night when Saturday Night Live kicks off its first live show of the year, with host Neil Patrick Harris and musical guest Taylor Swift.
Casey’s already parodied Scarlett Johansson and Jennifer Aniston on the long-running skit series, but she wants to expand her A-list imitation roster.
“It would be fun to do Kirstie Alley and Gwyneth Paltrow, which I think is a pretty intense mix of intense waspiness.
“I have girl crushes, and my odd-ball way of showing it is by portraying them, though that’s probably last thing they would want,” Casey chuckles.
Well, imitation is the sincerest form of flattery!

Kate Hudson ‘Channels’ Mom, Goldie
January 6th, 2009
Hollywood writers historically hate “hands-on” producers, but Bride Wars co-author
Casey Wilson loved boss/star Kate Hudson’s input in the movie.
“She was channeling (her mom), Goldie Hawn, in a way she never has,” says Wilson, a Saturday Night Live cast member who wrote the film with pal June Raphael.
“She made things funny we hadn’t made funny. We were storyboarding on her carpet, her son was running around.”
And it sounds like Kate’s talents weren’t the only pleasant surprise Casey got during the making of the movie.
In fact, her co-star Anne Hathaway, provided quite a revelation for Wilson.
“She has a scene on a stripper pole. I was like, whoa, I’m not lesbian but….”
Kate Hudson: Second Trip Down the Aisle?
January 6th, 2009
Kate Hudson has already been married once, and been divorced in a high-profile split from ex Chris Robinson. But even that very public experience in matrimony hasn’t made her anti-marriage – in fact, her own time as a wedded woman may come in handy in her new movie about brides gone mad.
So, is marriage something Kate sees again in her own future?
"Who knows?" she admits to OK! at the premiere of Bride Wars in NYC on Jan. 5. "I wouldn’t rule it out though.
As for the actual event, the big day and the dress, the busy mom says planning can be crazy.
"It gets so screwed up because you’re dealing with two families, you’re dealing with your parents – some parents try to stay out of it, but they always have to have their word," she tells reporters. "You’re in an awkward position. It’s like this – it’s like a movie premiere. It’s a big production."
Don’t think Kate will be caught up in all that anytime soon, as she says, "I would elope and then have a party."

Kate & Anne Talk Weddings
December 21st, 2008 / Author: OK! Staff
Kate Hudson enjoyed a shortlived marriage to rocker Chris Robinson (they split after six years in 2006) while Anne Hathaway’s ex-boyfriend, con man Raffaello Follieri, is currently in jail for fraud. But has that dented the Bride Wars co-stars’ love of romance?
Heck, no!
“I think any girl dreams of her wedding day,” Kate, 29, tells the February issue of Modern Bride. With the movie hitting theaters Jan. 9, Anne, 26, admits, “I’ll listen to a song and think, ‘I want that at my wedding!’ ”
What about prepping for the dance floor?
“Kate would advise everyone to take a pole-dancing class!” jokes Anne.
Kate Hudson: Single and Loving It!
December 16th, 2008
Kate Hudson won’t be cozying up with anyone special this holiday season. In fact, the Bride Wars star says she’s just fine with her party-of-one status.
"I’m actually enjoying being single right now because I really never have been," Hudson told pal and fashion designer Stella McCartney–who interviewed her for In Style Magazine’s January issue.
Kate, 29, who infamously dated Owen Wilson and Lance Armstrong, tells the mag, "I feel good in relationships. I enjoy them, so I feel my best when I’m in something solid. But it’s also the first time I’ve ever taken a step back and gotten a new perspective."
"So," concludes Hudson, "I’ve made a conscious decision to try and stay single as long as possible."
According to pal Stella, Hudson has "always been in demand" when it comes to the Hollywood dating pool. But right now there’s only one man the actress is completely devoted to: Ryder, her son with ex-husband Chris Robinson.
Hudson says she plans to take a break next year from her busy work schedule so that she can spend more time with her son, who turns 5 next month.
"When he climbs into bed with me, wraps his arms around me and says, ‘Mommy, the sun’s up! It’s a beautiful morning!’ I’m sorry, do I really want to go to work then?" she asks. "No!"
Kate Hudson: “I Don’t Know if I’ll Marry Again”
December 8th, 2008
In her new film Bride Wars, Kate Hudson plays a young woman who’s life becomes totally obsessed with planning her perfect wedding. But in real life, the actress, 28, says she’s a little more gun shy.
"I don’t know if I’ll ever get married again," she tells Extra. "I don’t know…It depends on who you end up with."
Hudson married Black Crows frontman Chris Robinson when she was just 20. The couple, who have a son, Ryder Russell, divorced in 2007. Despite the split, Hudson says she has nothing but love for her ex.
"I don’t regret a second of my marriage…Thank God for Chris," she says. "He made me partly who I am…We had a great time. We love each other deeply. We have an amazing son."
They say hindsight is 20/20. If she did ever tie the knot again, is there something Kate would do differently this time around?
"I’d probably go on a honeymoon because we didn’t get to go on a honeymoon…It was Christmas time and I had to go right to work," she recalls. "That’d be the number one thing."
And with Christmas just weeks away, Hudson says she plans to spend her holiday in the snow–lots of it!
"Every year we go to Colorado because we grew up there and we ski," she explains. "This year, I think I’m going to do something different for New Year’s. I think I want to go someplace warm, but I might just have to go back home to New York."
When asked if she would ever want to work with her famous mom, Goldie Hawn, Kate said, "Yes!…I really do want to work with my mom…Just to spend a good year of our lives doing something together, I don’t think you get to have the opportunity to do that very often with your parents."
Kate Hudson’s Cellular Love
June 3rd, 2008
Kate Hudson and Lance Armstrong’s whirlwind romance has taken them to Cannes and Monaco and, most recently, New York City, where it was clear the lovebirds were still heating things up!
The actress spent three days nesting at her beau’s apartment while filming Bride Wars and kept in constant contact with Lance while on set via cell phone, where she was overheard whispering sweet nothings to the 36-year-old seven-time Tour de France champ.
“Kate was glowing,” an insider tells OK!. “She was smiling and couldn’t stop laughing while talking to him.”
Though they have been together for less than a month, the two are certain this is no short-lived summer fling. How serious are they? Kate is planning on taking her son Ryder, 4, to Lance’s hometown of Austin, Tx.
“She was burned by her breakups with Owen Wilson and wants to make sure Lance is right, but she says she’s living in the moment and taking the relationship day by day," a Kate family member tells OK!.
