15 Actors Stuck In Hollywood's Dog House

7. Kate Hudson

Since an Oscar nomination in 2000 for Almost Famous Kate Hudson has appeared in more than 20 films. You've got 5 minutes to see if you can name 3 of them. No cheating now! Struggling? Well, don't worry. Apart from starring with a pre-renaissance Matthew McConaughey in How To Lose A Guy In 10 Days and the God-awful Fool€™s Gold it€™s hard to think what she€™s been up to. Decent performances in The Skeleton Key led to moderate box office success, and a role opposite Owen Wilson and Matt Damon in You, Me And Dupree confirmed her A-list connections. Since then it's been a steady decline into Hollywood oblivion with her rock star relationships getting more magazine coverage than her career. On paper Hudson has everything; great looks, talent and raised by Hollywood Royalty, but something just hasn€™t worked out. But at only 36 years old she does at least have time on her side. So What Next? What she really needs now is a leg-up from her old romantic sparring partner McConaughey and casting in a role that brings credibility and a long-awaited welcome back into the Hollywood fold. Without that, Hudson could be left making films few people will see, and even less will remember.
