Quotables

Gwyneth Paltrow

Gwyneth Paltrow, in her latest GOOP newsletter:

Back in the day, I had a “frenemy” who, as it turned out, was pretty hell-bent on taking me down. This person really did what they could to hurt me. I was deeply upset, I was angry, I was all of those things you feel when you find out that someone you thought you liked was venomous and dangerous. I restrained myself from fighting back. I tried to take the high road. But one day I heard that something unfortunate and humiliating had happened to this person. And my reaction was deep relief and…happiness. There went the high road. So, why does it feel so good to hear something bad about someone you don’t like? Or someone you DO like? Or someone you don’t KNOW? I once asked the editor of a tabloid newspaper why all of the stories about a famous British couple had a negative bent. He said that when the headline was positive, the paper didn’t sell. Why is that? What’s wrong with us?

Hmmmm. Who could Gwynnie be talking about???

    Are those her nipples or really badly placed dress seams?

    God, the rod up Gwen’s butt has a rod up its butt.

    And I don’t think it’s Winona Ryder, obviously it’s Judi Dench, that backstabbing hussy.

    Love Lainey and she did out Winona Ryder.

  6. Just Saying says:

    This actually makes me like Gwenny a little bit. Who’d have thunk it?

  7. Lee says:

    Awesome, she’s actually making a really good point and asking a really good question and what everyone gets out of it is, “Who’s the bitch she’s talking about?” So, basically, this post illustrates her point beautifully. The circle of life…er, gossip.

      lee, you do realize you are posting on a gossip site, yes?

      • Jennifer says:

        Oh the irony kitten. Sorry Lee but I already exhausted the meaning of life and E=mc2 so now I just settle for talking about idiot actresses. :)

    S..

    I think you may be right. The shoplifting thing did ruin Ryder.

    Gwen is just a privileged asshole. If it was not for her parents fame she would be making coffee and the corner Starbucks and dating some unemployed loser. She is not smart she is just thinks she is brilliant and wordly.

    LOL! How did I not know about this GOOP business before? It is the stuff of a Christopher Guest movie.
