Kate Hudson and Goldie Hawn Twin in Glamorous Looks at 'Song Sung Blue' Screening

While some fans swooned over the look-alike mother and daughter, others couldn't help but focus on Goldie Hawn's appearance, opining and speculating that she has gotten so much work done.

On January 13, 2026, iconic mother-daughter duo Goldie Hawn and Kate Hudson stepped out in matching style to attend the Special Screening and Q&A event for "Song Sung Blue," which Hudson stars in.

During the panel discussion, where Hawn moderated, the movie icon gushed about how proud she and Kurt Russell are of Hawn's performance, and how emotional they got watching her.

A Dazzling Entrance: The Mother and Daughter Captivate with Their Beauty and Style

The pair turned heads with their effortlessly chic, all-black ensembles, a timeless color choice that added to the powerful visual symmetry between them. Hawn, 80, looked radiant in a classic black pantsuit layered over a sleek top.

Her signature blonde locks, worn loose with her staple bangs, framed her face and added a touch of bohemian ease to her otherwise tailored look.

Subtle makeup with a natural glow accentuated her familiar features, and delicate rings added just the right amount of understated glam. She completed the outfit with simple black shoes.

Hudson, 46, echoed her mother's sleek vibe with a more modern twist. She donned a fitted black top with elbow-length sleeves, tucked into a voluminous black skirt. It was a silhouette that balanced structure with movement.

Her honey-blonde hair flowed in soft waves, parted in the center, which mirrored her mother's iconic style with an updated, polished edge. Simple yet striking jewelry — including a slim bracelet and minimalist rings — complemented her ensemble without overwhelming it.

She finished the look with black heels that peeked out beneath the hem of her skirt, adding height and sophistication to her ensemble.

Together, the two presented a masterclass in coordinated elegance, proving once again that style may very well be in their DNA.

Fans Shower the Duo with Praise

Upon seeing photos of Hawn and Hudson, many viewers took to social media to admire the duo's enduring beauty and familial connection, showering them with compliments. One admirer gushed, "Both very pretty ladies. Kate is the image of her mum at that age, and boy [sic] she can sing."

Another fan lovingly declared, "Two peas in a pod." Someone else noted Hudson's strong facial features, writing, "Katie has a good jaw maybe [sic] from dad! ❤️." And echoing admiration for their entire clan, a supporter shared, "Love that whole family. Hey Goldie is 80 and Kurt is 74. They both look great . 🙌😍 [sic]."

Several others chimed in with warm sentiments, expressing affection for the stars and appreciation for the project itself. One admirer conveyed a sense of love for the duo, while also observing that Hudson appeared somewhat different in recent appearances, though they ultimately reaffirmed their fondness and praised the pair's beauty.

But Then the Mood Shifted… and the Comments Turned Cold

Still, not all feedback was glowing. A more critical corner of the internet focused heavily on Hawn's appearance, speculating about cosmetic enhancements.

One critic bluntly opined, "Goldie has had so much plastic surgery, she looks like a 'characterization' of her former self...SAD." Another echoed a similar sentiment, "Goldie has had major work done," while a separate person commented, "If only her mom didn't mess with her face."

Reflecting on Hawn's supposed facial changes, one viewer remarked with a tinge of sorrow that her appearance has noticeably shifted in recent years.

Meanwhile, others challenged the popular narrative that Hudson and Hawn look alike. One commenter argued, "Sorry, but they don't look anything alike other than they're dressed alike and they have the same colour hair. Their faces are completely different."

One spectator compared the aging processes of Hawn and her long-time partner, suggesting that Russell has aged more naturally in contrast to Hawn.

But Through It All, the Film's Emotional Power Stole the Spotlight

Despite the noise, one thing stood out: the gut-punch of emotion the film delivered to those who mattered most.

"Song Sung Blue," a touching narrative centered on a Milwaukee-based husband-and-wife duo who perform as a Neil Diamond tribute act, charts both the euphoric highs and heartbreaking lows of their shared musical journey. But for Hawn and Russell, the movie's power extended far beyond its plot.

During the post-screening Q&A, moderator Hawn opened up about just how profoundly the film affected her and her longtime partner. She recalled watching an early, unfinished cut of the movie with Russell — a version not yet color corrected or sound balanced — and being overwhelmed with emotion.

"The two of us held onto each other and cried," she divulged. Hawn went on to reveal that it had been decades since a film moved her to tears in that way, not since she was just 11 years old. And it wasn't only her reaction that struck a chord.

She recounted how Russell turned to her during the screening and said something unforgettable: that Hudson might be the greatest actress of all time. "And he does not say those things," Hawn emphasized, underscoring the weight of his words and the pride that coursed through them both.
