Is the 29 year old Kate Hudson, daughter of the famous actress Goldie Hawn, living in the shadow of the adventures of ‘Indianna Jones’, with her well-kept-secret ingredient for her new hair products? Kate Hudson launched the eco-friendly ‘Vanuatu Complex’, using the vitamin and mineral rich grey volcanic ash from the tropical islands of Vanuatu, in June, believing it was her Blue Moon Opportunity.

The product claims to be able to completely revolutionize hair care. The secret ingredient, volcanic ash, is said to encapsulate ‘fly aways’ (free flying hair).  Currently the products are causing a lather of controversy in the court system. The Californian based  corporation, 220 Laboratories, are claiming compensatory and punitive damages, plus interest, because of the breach of an oral contract with Hudson.

Allegedly there are 17 causes of action filed in the Los Angelos Superior Court against actress Kate Hudson and her hair stylist-guru-to-the-stars, David Babaii. They include breach of contract, misappropriation of trade secrets, fraud, breach of confidence and a heap of other allegations. 220 Laboratories says the duo have breached an oral contract, which established the Laboratories as the sole providers of the raw materials, used in the hair products. However, Hudson’s publicist Brad Cafarelli says Kate has not yet been served with the complaint or sighted any papers from laywers.

It is not very often that we see oral contracts as the centre of a dispute in the court system, unless you live on a tropical island, such as Vanuatu, in the South Pacific. Particularly when that dispute will involve thousands of dollars and high profile public figures. Perhaps they are influenced by the fact that Vanuatu has a history of oral traditions, used to of hand down customs and rites, through songs and dance. Vanuatu has many hidden secrets, as was seen from the recent opening of an exhibition of rare artifacts, in Sydney.  Secret and sacred art that had never before been seen outside of Vanuatu, setting the art world on fire.

The claim is that after months of dealing and negotiating with  the 220 Laboratories, Hudson and Babaii chose to take the list of secret ingredients for their range of hair products, to a competing laboratory, Universal Packaging Systems Inc. Universal agreed to produce the shampoos and conditioners at a lower price. 220 Laboratories now claims it is the same product that Kate and David discussed with them. Even down to a similar name and packaging.

Is this more of Kate’s ‘Fool’s Gold’? Is she trying to live in real life, what was only a plot for a movie, of does she truly believe she has come up with her life changing Blue Moon Opportunity?

The prosecuting attorney is Matthew McConaughey, who allegedly has a rich romantic past with Hudson. Will this complicate things even further and does Kate really not know anyone in 220 Laboratories, as she is now claiming? The water gets muddier and muddier, or is that ashier and ashier?

The question is, are Kate’s hair products the real thing, or just a cheap imitation? Either way, it would be worth a trip to Vanuatu, just to try the volcanic ash for yourself. Even if the ash doesn’t prove to be the revolutionary new product that Kate claims it is, standing on the lip of a real live volcano, Mt. Yassur, is an earth shaking and unforgettable experience. Well worth the trip, to a little known South Pacific tropical island, that is the home of travel adventure and extreme sport.

Husdon and Babaii are partners in the company ‘David Babaii for Wild Aid’, which donates 10% of profits to WildAid, a wildlife conservation group.
