Gwyneth Paltrow Defends GOOP
Gwyneth Paltrow squeezes into a pair of J Brand “9612” pencil leg jeans while meeting up with a few businessmen on Thursday (February 26) in New York City’s Financial District.
At the Bent on Learning charity event on Wednesday, she explained her vision for her holistic lifestyle website GOOP. “I’m not trying to be the next Martha [Stewart],” Paltrow said.
“I think the people who are criticizing it or criticizing the idea of it, don’t really get it, because if they did, they would like it,” Paltrow, 36, said. “I think that people like people to stay in their ‘box’ - they like people to stay how they are comfortable seeing them.”

I don’t get why everyone is getting so nasty about her site… if you don’t like what she writes about then don’t read it.
I really do not see what all the fuss is about. I actually get her newsletters and they are not bad at all. I agree, if you don’t like what she writes then don’t read it! You know there are millions of web sites out there with far far worse things but no one is making a big deal out of that. Poor Gwyneth, just leave her alone
I think people get it. It’s not a very complex idea. It’s just a boring website that’s gotten much more attention that its deserved.
Love Gwyn’s boots. She really isn’t that pretty, huh?
I honestly can’t believe this is the same girl from Shakespeare in Love. Age really is the great equalizer.
She is right! Even in these uncertain times most folks like to see things stay the same for fear of change. I say comfort zones be damned! Do your thing Gwyn!

I don’t understand why anyone cares about her Goop. If she weren’t famous, I doubt she’d be getting all these plugs. Gwyn doesn’t even write the articles. The Times had a writeup about it that confirmed she has editors who write that stuff for her, so blame the editors if you don’t like it.
Rough looking for a young woman.
Gwynnie should never put her hair back, as it really shows how square her face is which is a downside. Sorry, but she’s got some harsh features.
So sweet but Gwyn needs to get…a new hair color & style.
Are those the same boots she wore to the Two Lovers premiere?
I like her bag, but she has such a man jaw.
I read that article and she also went on to brag about her “amazing, super, fortunate, life.” Gwyn is marketing this all wrong and rubbing people the wrong way. She needs a new pr team.
GP is plain as hell. No wonder she dresses half naked all the time to get attention. No one would look twice at that face otherwise.
The bag is by Tod’s.
All these gossip sights go around spewing hatred and criticizing female celebrities for not being perfect and no one complains…Gwyneth is trying to put out some positivity and people are bothered by her having an ego???? I think she’s great. Also–to the people saying she looks bad in these pcitures, She’s not wearing any makeup at all and has her hair pulled back, I think she looks damn good.
It feels like she has been 36 for years.
She looks fine. It’s her attitude and how out of touch she is with the everywoman that’s her downfall.
All Gwyneth Paltrow is doing is trying to sell a chain of gyms and a cookbook. Her newsletter, why do they call it a blog btw?, is an obvious tie-in to those ventures. Buyer beware. Her business partner, Tracy Anderson, still has lawsuits pending against her in several states and has ripped off many former business partners and clients. Funny how that fact gets little-to-no press attention.
In those photos, Gwyneth looks like a man in heels. I’ve never understood why the media tries to force her upon us like she’s some ideal standard of beauty. Most women are not 5′11 and 115 lbs.
She is not a natural beauty but how many really are? To me her looks are highly dependent on the right camera angle, lighting, hair & makeup.
I like goop! made the turkey meatballs. yummy.
Gwyneth had her own look before, now she looks a bit like Taylor Momsen.
average face. great body and hair.
if you like goop, you can get the same recipes at epicurious. she’s not doing anything special.
i heard she used to treat her stuff like s*** on the sets.
maybe she’s doing all this cause of karma hahahahahhaha
She dresses nice but always looks a bit masculine.
