London,
(ANI):
Kate
Hudson,
Gwyneth
Paltrow,
Diane
Kruger
and
Hilary
Swank
were
honoured
at
Elle
magazine's
annual
Women
in
Hollywood
awards
in
Los
Angeles
on
18
October,
2010.
The
extravagant
ceremony
paid
tribute
to
the
female
stars
for
their
impact
on
the
film
industry.
Others
who
received
a
nod
included
Jodie
Foster,
Diane
Keaton,
Sofia
Coppola
and
Kerry
Washington.
Paltrow
was
presented
with
her
prize
by
her
Proof
co-star
Jake
Gyllenhaal,
who
took
the
stage
and
told
the
crowd
about
working
with
the
multi-talented
actress.
"Bottom
line,
she
is
not
a
mere
mortal
like
the
rest
of
us...
She
is
an
internet-savvy,
award-winning,
lifestyle
guru,
making
all
of
us
look
lazy.
She
doesn't
just
find
a
nice
guy
to
settle
down
with
-
she
marries
a
rock
star
and
then
domesticates
him.
She
doesn't
just
cook
-
she
goes
to
Spain
with
Mario
Batali
and
then
domesticates
him!
She
is
not
just
a
lifestyle
guru,
but
she
invents
a
whole
new
fitness
movement
and
then
convinces
me
to
try
it,
and
I
do
it,
and
I
am,
therefore,
domesticated...
sweating
my
a**
off
in
spandex,
which
is
humbling
and
embarrassing," the
Daily
Star
quoted
him
as
saying.
Harrison
Ford
admitted
he
was
overwhelmed
by
the
star-studded
ceremony,
because
it
serves
as
proof
that
women
have
secured
their
place
as
major
players
in
Hollywood.
He
said:
"(This
event)
came
to
be
back
in
the
days
when
they
said,
There
were
no
good
parts
for
women
and
Women
aren't
highly
regarded.
(Now)
women
run
Hollywood.
Absolutely
run
Hollywood.
And
I'm
glad."
