Kate Hudson recently gave one of those “survey” interviews to Cosmopolitan magazine.
It should have been a generic nothingburger of an interview, but apparently Kate took the WROOOOONG turn when she was asked what the “laziest” thing she’s ever done is.

Kate Hudson is in the hot seat after referring to her first birth, a C-section, as the “laziest” thing she has ever done. The actor has two (adorable) sons: Ryder, 13, with Chris Robinson and Bingham, 6, with Matt Bellamy. Ryder was born via C-section; Bingham was a vaginal birth.
How did this comment even come about? Hudson is the cover star in October’s issue of Cosmopolitan, and part of the feature story was a survey she completed. Most of the questions — and her answers — were adorably innocuous. But Hudson took a seriously wrong turn when she put “C-section” and “lazy” in the same sentence.
As you can probably imagine, Twitter and Instagram both lit up like Rome burning to the ground. One Instagram commenter wrote on Hudson’s feed, “your comment about c-sections was very ignorant. I had a c-section, not because I was ‘lazy’ but because after 17 hours of labor I had placenta previa and was rushed into the ER as life saving measures.
Hey #KateHudson – please tell me which part of major abdominal surgery is “lazy”? The procedure? The heal time? The 9 months of work prior? pic.twitter.com/DJVmf1lmVL

I’m gonna be honest… I think people need to stop caring so much what celebrities say and do…. but what do I know? I’ve never had a c-section. (or a kid.)
I guess people are REALLY upset, though…
#KateHudson or how after all medical intervention I was supposed to push a baby out of 1.5cm dilation!!! Seriously! #Fool

@ Kate Hudson my mom was in labor with me for 43 total hours and you’re gonna tell me her HAVING to have a C-section was lazy?? Fuck off.

By choice or emergency, having a c-section should not be an option to put as “lazy”. I’m sure Kate Hudson had other options. Why say that?

When @Kate_Hudson says having a c-section is lazy, she loses all respect in my book. I had one not by choice and nothing is lazy about it!

Kate Hudson saying women who have their babies via C-section are lazy is stupid. Majority of women don’t have a choice. She’s lame for that

Yeah… only that’s not what she said AT ALL. She said it was the laziest thing SHE had ever done. Nothing about “women who have their babies via c-section.” Can people really not tell the difference?
My take? Maybe it wasn’t the smartest thing to say, but not everything is about you. These people had medical emergencies… Kate apparently chose to have a c-section to avoid labor. She thinks that was lazy of HER. Get over it.
