Kate Hudson really needs to pose nude.

We had this epiphany while ogling the photos below, as the actress is incredibly good looking.

Despite appearing in numerous movies and dating stars such as Owen Wilson and Lance Armstrong, though, Hudson is rarely considered among the hottest in Hollywood.

It doesn't seem fair. Just click on the following images, courtesy of InStyle UK, to see how pretty the actress can be:

In an interview with the magazine, Hudson dishes on two of the most important things in life: children and underwear.

On being a single mom: “Being a single parent can be difficult, but I don’t feel I am one. Chris [Robinson] and I are co-parenting and traveling is where it gets difficult. Chris is on the road and I’ve had a busy last year, so I am going to take a break in 2009. I want to soak in every little part of who Ryder is.”

On underwear: “I discovered these great undergarments I can’t live without called ‘Nearly Nude’…They’re so great. And you can wear them under any dress; they’re really thin. Also, Wolford makes a kind of slip that holds you in. It’s a little expensive, but women should invest in that! I don’t go anywhere without Calvin Klein strapless bras, and since I wear a lot of short skirts, I always have…my little boy-shorts to wear under the minis.”
