Kate Hudson’s career-making performance as Penny Lane in Cameron Crowe’s “Almost Famous” won the actress a Golden Globe Award and an Academy Award nomination. In 2013, after appearing in more than 20 films, Hudson co-founded Fabletics, a line of affordable activewear designed to inspire women’s empowerment by getting active and taking care of themselves. Two years later, Hudson and Fabletics introduced FL2, a line of high-performance athletic wear and lifestyle essentials for men, and the company began to launch retail stores.
You can watch Hudson’s interview with Fabletics’ co-founder live from our Code Commerce conference tonight starting at 6 pm PT/ 9 pm ET.
We’ll also have Facebook Live and a Periscope livestream of Hudson’s interview.

Will you support Vox’s explanatory journalism?
Most news outlets make their money through advertising or subscriptions. But when it comes to what we’re trying to do at Vox, there are a couple reasons that we can't rely only on ads and subscriptions to keep the lights on.
First, advertising dollars go up and down with the economy. We often only know a few months out what our advertising revenue will be, which makes it hard to plan ahead.
Second, we’re not in the subscriptions business. Vox is here to help everyone understand the complex issues shaping the world — not just the people who can afford to pay for a subscription. We believe that’s an important part of building a more equal society. We can’t do that if we have a paywall.
That’s why we also turn to you, our readers, to help us keep Vox free. If you also believe that everyone deserves access to trusted high-quality information, will you make a gift to Vox today?
