My brothers' recent involvement with
David Babaii for WildAid has sparked an unprecedented level of personal awareness for American popular culture in my father, which is my way of saying that he now knows who Kate Hudson is. The only other American actress he knows by name is Brooke Shields. It's evident, however, that his fascination with Kate Hudson is still in its earliest stages because he's still struggling to be able to distinguish her from other pretty white ladies. As we were waiting for breakfast this morning, we started flipping through issues of
Cosmopolitan and
Allure that were sitting on the table. He stopped on a photo of Drew Barrymore, pointed at it and turned the magazine so that it was facing me.
"Is that Kate Hudson? That's Kate Hudson, right?" my dad asked.
"Nope. That's Drew Barrymore."
He continued flipping until he saw the next photo of a pretty white lady...
"THAT'S Kate Hudson, right?"
"No. Blake Lively."
By the way, I LOVE
Gossip Girl. But I digress...
To my delight, the Find-Kate-Hudson-in-the-Women's-Fashion-Magazine game continued for about ten more minutes. Here's a list of celebrities that my dad thought were Kate Hudson:
- Drew Barrymore
- Blake Lively
- Britney Spears
- Scarlett Johansson
- Ashton Kutcher (No, that's not a joke.)
- Kiera Knightley
- Kate Hudson (The blind squirrel found a nut.)
- Rachel McAdams
- Charlize Theron
He could probably pick her out of a lineup of black males, but that's about it. This goes to show that all white people can look alike to a Korean guy as much as all Asian people can look alike to a white person.

Why Kate Hudson? there's so much better out there. She actually looks really pretty sitting with those lions. Probably the prettiest i've ever seen her. Maybe it's in contrast to the lions though, i dunno. He should go after someone more attainable. Start low, with someone like Kelly Osbourne, then work your way up to a Kate Hudson.
Tell your dad he can spot Kate Hudson by her almost flat chest. In that way, I guess she does look like Ashton Kutcher. Not that I have anything to brag about.
I love Gossip Girl too! I'm still trying to convince Rachel of it's amazingness; she's being resistant. It's my favorite thing on TV right now -- followed by 30 Rock. I can't wait for the new episode tonight!!!!
Oh, and Kate Hudson is a complete hack! You can tell your dad i said that.
XOXO
