A breath of fresh air, if you will.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cTo have so many people love the album has been beautiful for her. Musicians she admires and looks up to have complimented her on the songwriting, on her voice, it\u2019s mind-blowing for her,\u201d the insider adds.<\/span><\/p>\n Actors and athletes leaning on their existent fame to put out music and roleplay as rock stars<\/a> isn\u2019t new, but the source insists that for Kate, making music was a personal goal she had been considering for over two decades. \u201cShe wasn\u2019t expecting to turn into some huge pop star when she agreed to make this album, all she wanted was to make something she was proud of and put it out there with no regrets,\u201d the insider explains. \u201cShe tried not to think too far past that.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n The Fool\u2019s Gold<\/em> actress told Rolling Stone<\/em><\/a> in May 2024 that, back in the early 2000s, when pop music and pretty blonde girls were all the rage, producers had approached her with offers to make an album, but her insecurity got the better of her and she backed out. \u201cI always felt not ready. I don\u2019t know why that was my response. Something was stopping me, and I wasn\u2019t reflective enough at the time to really think about it \u2014 until I got older, and I was like, \u2018Why am I so hesitant with something I love more than anything<\/a>?\u2019\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n
