Kurt Russell simply could not be happier about his smitten stepdaughter Kate Hudson’s undying, passionate love for a rod. A rod named Alex Rodriguez.

“Of course, with Alex, since this summer and our getting to know him, I’m so happy for him,” Kurt said after the Yankees won the World Series last week.

Sounds like he’s definitely put the stamp of approval on the relationship of Kate Hudson and Alex Rodriguez, which has been going on since the summer.

“He’s a terrific kid. He’s worked hard for a long, long time and now, all questions have been put to rest for everything and hopefully he will live a wonderful life and show us things in baseball that perhaps we’ve never seen,” Kurt adds.

Kurt and Kate’s mom, his longtime partner Goldie Hawn, definitely think of Alex Rodriguez as family by now, and are standing behind him 100 percent.

Alex Rodriguez need not worry about Kurt Russell’s approval!

“I think support is always a good thing from family, but Alex does what he does because he’s good at it and because he’s worked hard at it,” explains Kurt.

“I think that it’s a good thing that he has a connection with some people that appreciate it with him, but this is about the Yankees,” he said of the big win.

A quick A-Rod pro-con list reveals the following positives:

  • Can hit a baseball very well
  • Makes $30 million a year
  • Is good-looking

But these negatives:

  • Is divorced with two kids
  • Often thinks with a rod
  • Likes manly strippers
  • Is total d-bag
  • PED user

Good to see the pros won out!
