Speaking to host Jimmy Fallon, Hudson discussed Taylor Swift's recent nod to her character in "Almost Famous." In Cameron Crowe's semi-autobiographical film, the actress plays Penny Lane, a groupie for the fictional band Stillwater.
During Super Bowl weekend, Swift wore a shearling-trimmed coat resembling Penny Lane's, leading fans to connect the singer's favorite number with the film.
"This was very exciting," Hudson said. "[Swift] wore the Penny Lane coat, and then there was this whole Easter egg thing with 13s because 'Almost Famous' came out on [Sept. 13, 2000]."
Fallon also noted that the Beatles song "Penny Lane," which the character was named for, came out on Feb. 13, 1967.

"I feel like I want to do the Easter egg thing," Hudson continued. "I wish I could put that much effort into little secret things that people could read into, but it would be exhausting."
Hudson's role as Penny Lane helped solidify her as a boho style icon. Bohemian dressing dates back centuries, but it's seen a resurgence in 2024 thanks in part to Chloé and Saint Laurent's recent collections. The free-spirited aesthetic is characterized by loose silhouettes, exotic prints and eclectic details (think fur vests, intricate embroideries and clamorous jewelry).
Hudson also discussed her latest project, "Running Point," cocreated by Mindy Kaling. In the new comedy, the actress portrays the president of a pro basketball team.
"Jeanie Buss, who's the president of the Lakers, went to Mindy years ago and was like, 'I really think my life is a comedy, and I'd love if you'd be interested in doing it,'" Hudson shared. "Jeanie gave us all this freedom and has such a great sense of humor, so we got to really play in this world of professional basketball and I get to play a version of the first woman to lead a professional basketball team."
