Gwyneth Paltrow

As an actress, Gwyneth Paltrow is alright, I think. I liked her as Pepper Potts, and I may be showing my age and predilection for Jane Austen, but I really liked the movie adaptation of Emma she starred in. And Sliding Doors is an interesting movie, although I think her British accent was one of the weak parts of the film.

But Gwyneth Paltrow is not just an actress, not anymore. For many years now, she has set out to position herself as some kind of lifestyle guru. Goop, her wellness and lifestyle company, offers articles and products that vary from “potentially useful” to “absolutely insane.” If you haven’t heard about the jade eggs… you’re probably happier not knowing.
