Looking their best in beach wear Credit: Warner Bros.

The cute-together non-couple of Kate Hudson and hunky Matthew McConaughey claim they are platonic friends...without benefits but they have great chemistry. Go figure. Kate and Matt made a great couple in the romantic hit How to Lose a Guy in Ten Days and decided to team up again. They are co-starring in the romantic comedy adventure Fool's Gold... playing an estranged couple on a treasure hunt. Matthew's about to become a dad via his model girlfriend Camila Alves and he's stoked! Kate is divorced from her rocker hubby Chris Robinson, with whom she is still friendly, and is concentrating on son Ryder. The two shared with us their feelings and opinions about child rearing. Complicated!

We met with the funny, upbeat duo recently at a beach hotel in Santa Monica, Ca. and could see what everyone means about their chemistry. At one point Kate picked lint off Matthew's shoulder and briefly put her hand on his knee. They finish each other's sentences. The two were color-coordinated; Kate in jeans and gray and black patterned blouse with gray jacket. Some really cute beaded black and clear crystal bracelets finished the look. Now and then during the interview, Kate chewed on her red nail polish. Matthew, his hair shorter and more brown-ish than usual, wore a long-sleeved gray tee over black pants and brown boots. Of course, there was an on-site addition to his wardrobe. The duo had been given gift bags by a reporter and both were checking them out. Like a little kid at Christmas, Matt just had to open his right then and we were off and running....
