Kate Hudson gets candid in a new interview about rumors she is engaged to Alex "AROD" Rodriguez, losing 20 pounds off her already trim frame, and whether she'd ever get Botox.

She tells Elle UK magazine about a ring spotted on her right hand that provoked rumors among certain publications, "'Did you know that it was this one, on my right hand," she explains to the reporter. "I hear about this and I'm like, 'Why would I even respond? What would I say if you're going to lie about something ridiculous?' And if you really did your job, you'd look at the pictures taken that day and realize [the ring] was on my right hand."

She also reports that she's losing 20 pounds for a role playing a terminally ill woman, but says, "I'm pretty solid, actually. I'm not, like, 110 pounds. But I'm probably heading towards that."

She tells Elle UK that she misses being able to freely consume alcoholic beverages without weight worries: "And I love my glass of wine. I love tequila. To be in New York for two weeks and not have one beverage! I'm not sure I've ever done that."

And on Botox, she reports, "I was in a press conference once, and someone says, 'So, I can tell you've never had Botox!' Is that a compliment? Or are you trying to say I'm starting to get wrinkles? I literally was like, 'What?' Everyone's so obsessed with who gets Botox, but it's great! Are you kidding? The fact that women can avoid going under the knife, and get a little Botox treat and not have to worry about it? I'm glad it's there for when it's time."
