Noted Tumblr-er and TV-screengrabber Soup took this image of Gwyneth Paltrow with very shiny, lubed-up legs on Conan. The internet hates Gwyneth, so now everyone is making lard jokes (FYI, it's lotion!). I am this [ ] close to making a “Leeeave Gwyneth Allloonnnnnne” video.
This week's newsletter from Gwyneth Paltrow focuses on a former “frenemy” who was publicly humiliated, much to the Goopster's glee. All the gossip gurus agree that the frenemy is Winona Ryder. I like to think that Gwyneth knew we'd all figure it out and just wanted to be awesomely bitchy. That I can respect.
Celebrity Buzz This is most definitely not a trend, but I'd like to make it one. Mostly because I have an insane girl crush on GP, seeing as she is: attractive, smart, stylish, a good actress, married to a “rock star,” and has homes in both London and the Hamptons where I could probably crash were we friends. And today's GOOP was sweet, if a little unaffordable. So please consider this post a safe space for Paltrow fans to share feelings and hopes for a world in which Gwyneth will once again be loved. (Coldplay fans maybe not welcome, though.)
Joaquin Phoenix is not the only cast member of Two Lovers who made interesting choices last night. Is it just me, or do those look like a pair of leather Umbros?
Celebrity Buzz There's been so much stuff about detox diets and how they don't work. Gwyneth's diet may or may not work, but at least you won't be drinking cayenne lemonade all day. The diet consists of bowel-moving foods like chicken, smoothies, and fruit, and bans gluten, dairy, processed food, shellfish, condiments, and sugar. It's refreshing to hear a refined Hollywood actress talk so openly about bowel movements.
Celebrity Buzz Then sign up for her new and completely random lifestyle website, Goop. Guidance you’ll get from Gwyneth includes: “Cook a meal for someone you love, go to a city you’ve never been to, learn something new, don’t be lazy.” Wait - so if we follow these completely uninspirational tips, we might have a chance to makeout with Brad Pitt or Chris Martin? No f’ing way!
Movie Buzz Tony Stark’s Girl Friday is getting love as a superhero assistant/sex symbol. Gwyneth Paltrow may have undone the badness of Sliding Doors and Shallow Hal with her turn in Iron Man.
