Watch Hollywood star Kate Hudson sing the Stone Temple Pilots classic Vasoline

A-lister Kate Hudson releases her debut album Glorious later this month

Hollywood star Kate Hudson may be best known for her film work, but music has always been in her blood, and people have been badgering her to record since her breakthrough role in Cameron Crowe’s Almost Famous movie in 2000.

Now Hudson has finally made an album – Glorious is released next week – and she’s promoting it with appearances on the kind of shows musicians guest on when they have new music to promote. This includes the Howard Stern Show, where the highlight of Hudson’s appearance was an unexpected cover of the Stone Temple Pilots classic Vasoline, a song her band uses to soundcheck. The video of the performance is below.

Glorious was recorded with the help of songwriter Johan Carlsson – who has previously worked with the likes of Katy Perry, Ariana Grande and One Direction – as well as 4 Nion Blonde’s founder and songwriter Linda Perry, and her partner, actor and composer Danny Fujikawa.
