Goldie Hawn did not hold back when her daughter Kate Hudson landed a Best Actress Oscar nomination for her role in ‘Song Sung Blue’. Within minutes of the announcement, Hawn shared a deeply personal Instagram post that felt less like a celebrity reaction and more like a proud mother pausing to take it all in. The nomination, announced on January 22, 2026, marks Hudson’s first Academy Award nod in 25 years and her first in a leading category. For many who have followed her career since ‘Almost Famous’, the moment felt overdue. This time, though, it carried extra weight. It was not about a breakout role. It was about staying power.
Kate Hudson Oscar nomination for ‘Song Sung Blue’
According to Moneycontrol, Hudson earned the nomination for her portrayal of Claire Sardina, one half of a married couple who perform together in a Neil Diamond tribute band. She stars opposite Hugh Jackman, and the film leans heavily on music to tell its story. The performance is intimate, sometimes raw, and anchored in quiet moments as much as songs. That balance has pushed Hudson firmly into the awards conversation this season.This is Hudson’s only nomination at the 2026 Oscars. Her last came in 2001, when she was just 21 and riding the wave of ‘Almost Famous’. Back then, she was the young discovery. Now, the nomination reflects an actor who has grown into her craft, comfortable carrying a film and its emotional weight.

Hawn’s response struck a chord. Alongside a still from the film, she wrote, “Oh, my baby, my baby, my baby girl! I love you as big as the universe.” She followed it with a line that felt pulled straight from memory. “Once upon a time, I had a little girl named Kate! And look at her now!”Fans filled the comments with praise, calling Hudson’s work “spectacular” and celebrating her journey rather than just the trophy chase. Many pointed out how ‘Song Sung Blue’ let her do something rare. Sing, act, and sit in silence when the scene needs it.The Oscars will air on March 15, 2026.
