Kate Hudson and Anne Hathaway Bride Wars Press Conference

Kate Hudson: "…When we sat down and were talking about trying to fix the end of the movie in development, we were all sitting around and I told the story of my mother. Basically my brother was getting married and my sister in law, we had this bridal shower for my sister in law, and my mom made this speech. She said, 'I want all the girls to look around the room even if you don't know each other, if you're just getting to know each other or if it's your sister. I want you remember one thing.' She was like, 'Trust me. Men, they come and go. They always will. Hopefully they stay, but it's the girl that's sitting next to you and the girl that's sitting across from you that's going to get you through everything.' We all were kind of like [crying]. My mom is filled with all these little wisdoms like that, but that's really important, that idea of not losing sight of that no matter where you go in your life with men because women give a lot to me."

"We love relationships. We thrive in them as we should and then sometimes you lose sight of the girls that are there for you all the time, which we shouldn't hold against any of our friends. I have a girlfriend right now who's off and running with somebody, but we're always there. When she's ready to pick up the phone and go, 'I don't know what to do!' We're all there. That's what the movie is about. So when we sat down and talked about that, that's where we sort of came up with that ending. It's hard to tie these types of movies together and have something that makes you feel [satisfied], something emotional that makes all the other crazy stuff worth it. So that was it."

One last question…can you talk about your role in Alice in Wonderland?

Anne Hathaway: "I play the White Queen in it and I think that's all I need to say."
