Kate Hudson Says She Could Smell Matthew McConaughey On Set

Hudson dismissed the long-standing rumor that she “forced” her "Fool's Gold" co-star to wear deodorant when they worked together.
Matthew McConaughey’s well-documented distaste for deodorant certainly left an impression on his “Fool’s Gold” co-star Kate Hudson.
Appearing on “Watch What Happens Live” Wednesday, Hudson dismissed the long-standing rumor that she “forced” McConaughey to wear deodorant while working with him on the 2008 romantic comedy, much of which was filmed in Australia and the Caribbean.
“He doesn’t wear deodorant — and by the way, I don’t either,” she said, though it wasn’t clear if the latter part was a joke.
Directed by Andy Tennant, “Fool’s Gold” follows a recently divorced couple, Finn (played by McConaughey) and Tess (Hudson), who rekindle their relationship while on an expedition for lost treasure.
The movie wasn’t as acclaimed as the 2005 rom-com “How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days,” which also starred Hudson and McConaughey, but it was nonetheless a hit at the box office.
