Kate Hudson Reveals 'Glee' Set Was 'Very Dramatic' After Guest Star Stint

Kate Hudson relives her times in the hit musical-comedy series Glee on the newest episode of her podcast.

The "Talk About Love" singer recalled her time on the hit television series and how "dramatic" the environment was.

Kate Hudson Says 'Glee' Set Was 'Very Dramatic'

In a conversation with Tony-winning singer-actress-producer Jenna Ushkowitz on her podcast Sibling Revelry, Hudson opened up about her time in the Emmy-winning show with her brother, Oliver.

"It was a very dramatic set," Hudson proclaimed. "Well, you know, when you've got all of those personalities and all that talent and all that youth, and a lot of hormones ... it's youthful, and young."

Ushkowitz, who played Tina Cohen-Chang on all six seasons of the show, attested to Hudson's declaration.

"We were all very close," she shared. "And yes, we had our squabbles, but we really were a family and it was easier to get along than it wasn't. And as dramatic as it was, there's so many moving parts of our show and so many cast members and so many personalities."

Hudson and Ushkowitz were never in a scene together because the former's character was based in New York, playing a dance teacher at the fictional New York Academy for Dramatic Arts (NYADA) to Lea Michele's Rachel Berry. Ushkowitz, on the other hand, remained in Ohio, where her character goes to school at.

"I think it was because you all were so close and the show was so huge. So you're all this young little family, and of course inside of it you're gonna have all the stuff that comes with it," Hudson furthered.

True enough, Glee was considered a worldwide phenomenon at the time it blasted on television in 2009 until it ended in 2015.

Notably, Ushkowitz is also hosting her own podcast, And That's What You Really Missed, focused primarily on reliving the show. She hosts the iHeart Radio podcast with castmate Kevin McHale, who played Artie Abrams on all six seasons.

Similarly, Olivier-winning singer-actress Amber Riley spoke to Entertainment Tonight ahead of the 15th anniversary of Glee's premiere.

"It's incredible, like, that's my family. We did something that was groundbreaking. I'm always grateful to Glee for being the catapult for my whole entire career, and for giving me such a vast knowledge and vocabulary of music."
