You, Me and Dupree star Kate Hudson has emphasised that it takes more than fame to achieve happiness.

In an interview with Vogue magazine, the actress recognised how lucky she has been with her career, but pointed out that such success is fleeting.

"I have an amazing job, but you need more than fame to be happy. If anybody is in this business to get famous, they ought to get out, because everybody falls off the shortlist eventually. Everybody," she stated.

Hudson also spoke about her enthusiasm for acting, despite the pressures she faces due to the fame of her mother, fellow-actress Goldie Hawn.

"[People] want to believe I do it because I felt I had to, or to be like my mom, or to compete with my mom, or any other of a number of things that have nothing to do with who I am," the star revealed.

"I am so much less complicated than that. I like acting."
