Celebrity Gossip - Having high-powered actresses as friends is never a bad thing when it comes to getting a little promotional help, and Stella McCartney always seems to draw out the biggest names in Tinseltown.

The well-liked designer saw Gwyneth Paltrow , Kate Hudson and Naomi Watts all turn up as she made her 2011 Spring Presentation in the West Village of New York City on Tuesday (June 8).

The trio of actresses smiled as they posed alongside one another, with Miss Hudson having rushed over following an appearance on the “Late Show with David Letterman”.

Meanwhile, Miss Paltrow was fresh off of attending the CFDA Fashion Awards the previous evening, as she bestowed the Womenswear designer of the year honors upon Michael Kors.

Complimenting Gwyneth backstage while chatting with People magazine, Kors graciously said, “I’ve known Gwyneth for a long time. She gets more and more beautiful. She’s a woman who can juggle everything and do it all beautifully, perform onstage and screen, a great mom, great wife, great business woman.. .. and she’s curious.”
