Being the daughter of Goldie Hawn and having inherited her good looks and charming personality, which never fails to shine through no matter what role of character she takes on, it comes as no surprise that Kate Hudson would top the list of the World’s Most Beautiful People list in People magazine, landing herself pride of place on the cover of the annual issue.

Kate’s natural beauty and medically un enhanced body gave the judges little to debate when selecting their winner.

Kate beat Salma Hayek, Mary J Blige and Rumer Willis, daughter of Bruce Willis and Demi Moore. Also named on the new World’s Most Beautiful People list are comedienne Sarah Silverman, Christina Applegate, new mom Isla Fisher and celebrity couples Jessica Alba and Cash Warren and Eva Longoria and Tony Parker.
