Kate Hudson captivated attendees at the Los Angeles premiere of Martin Short’s upcoming Netflix documentary, Marty, Life Is Short, held at The Egyptian Theatre in Hollywood. The 47-year-old actress turned heads in a bold yellow suede gown featuring a high side slit that extended below her hip and a provocative back slit.
