Oliver Hudson “hated” Goldie Hawn’s fans when he was growing up because autograph hunters took his mom’s attention away from him.

The “Scream Queens” star, who is the eldest child of actress Hawn and her musician ex Bill Hudson, revealed he got “angry” whenever anyone approached his mom for an autograph or a picture because he felt it interrupted their time together.

Speaking in Sunday’s episode of his “Sibling Revelry” podcast, Oliver, 48, explained, “I reflect on these feelings that I used to have when I was a young son … people coming up and wanting her attention … it was detracting from her energy toward me, and I hated it.

“It would make me angry when people would come up to the table and want autographs and interrupt what we were doing, and it was this invasion for me as a young boy.”

However, Oliver admitted his younger sister Kate Hudson wasn’t fazed by all the extra attention their mother, 78, received.

He added, “It was definitely a negative experience on that side for me, whereas Kate was like, ‘Bring it on.'”

Kate, 45, went on to reveal that having a famous mom made her “more of an observant observer when you grow up that way,” adding, “It’s like you really see what’s happening around you when sometimes the parent that is in the center of the attention is trying to ignore it.”

However, Kate found her own fame very different because she had to deal with paparazzi instead of fans.

She explained, “The weird thing is that when we were kids, it wasn’t necessarily paparazzi as much as it was fans. What happened with me when I became famous … it was sort of this new world of internet paparazzi, like, all of those sites.

“So, like, I would go to a restaurant, and there would be, like, 20 papos outside, and then I’d get cars chasing me. I didn’t grow up like that.”

Oliver went on to explain the family were snapped by photographers when they were kids but it mostly happened just at airports.

He added, “Back in the day, it was just the airport. You’re, like, walking out of the gate. All of a sudden, like, 80 paparazzi come out of nowhere … that was the ’80s.”
