Here are some photos of Gwyneth Paltrow on Friday in NYC, at an event for her business partner and friend (BFF?) Tracy Anderson. Tracy was launching “The Pregnancy Project” which is just a fancy, mommy-friendly name for “Tracy was shilling her DVD workout system to fat, postpartum women who Tracy will mock in interviews.” In addition to Goop, there were several other notables at the event – Christy Turlington (I can’t believe Christy is climbing on to Tracy’s bandwagon) and Molly Sims. But Goop was definitely THE STAR (the Head Goop!) of the event, of course. While she was on the red carpet, she talked about how she just turned 40 years old:
Gwyneth Paltrow is happily over the hill. The Academy Award winner (and mom to daughter Apple, 8, and son Moses, 6, with husband Chris Martin, 35) celebrated her 40th birthday September 27. At pal Tracy Anderson’s Pregnancy Project event supporting Every Mother Counts in New York City October 5, the Iron Man 3 actress spoke about what the milestone birthday means to her.
“I was really worried about it, leading up to the day, but now I feel really happy and content with my life,” Paltrow told reporters. “I’m excited to move into the next phase. It’s much more exciting than I thought it would be.”
Paltrow doesn’t predict much will change now that she’s entered a new decade.
“I think I try to promote self-growth and reflection for myself every day,” she explained.
Despite her luxe lifestyle, Paltrow — whose BFFs include Cameron Diaz, 40, and Beyonce Knowles, 31 — said she’s just like any other mom. “We have a scrimmage soccer game in our yard every day after school. It’s so fun,” she said. Though Moses prefers soccer, “Apple has been really loving gymnastics,” the star said.
Regardless of the activity, Paltrow is glad her children are being actively challenged on a daily basis. “I feel that mental happiness and physical happiness are so closely related, and especially for kids, because they have so much energy.”
Hahaha, Gwyneth Paltrow is the same age as Sofia Vergara. Except Sofia is a bit more honest about how she feels about turning 40. According to Sofia, “Turning 40 is horrible. People that say it isn’t are full of sh-t.” Which do you prefer? Sofia’s brutal honesty or Gwyneth’s incessant Goopiness, her subtext of “Forty years of being a narcissistic elitist, huzzah! Oooh, I stepped on a peasant.”
After the Pregnancy Project event, Gwyneth was just super-exhausted with all of the peasant-y shilling, so she got to celebrate her birthday again, this time with a dinner party in Manhattan’s Elio’s, an Italian joint. Guests included Beyonce, Steven Spielberg, Kate Capshaw, Blythe Danner, Jessica Seinfeld, Chelsea Handler, Kristen Wiig, Ethan Hawke, Jake Gyllenhaal, Christy Turlington, The Beastie Boys’ Mike D, Cameron Diaz and Chris Martin.
Who amongst them would be capable of telling Goop that she should start taking better care of her skin? Who amongst them will tell her to stop f—king flat-ironing her hair?

Sofia is the one I’m going with. There is nothing exciting about getting older.
And those cage shoes aren’t doing Tracy any favors!
I am the one I am going with.
I turned 40 and I laughed. I look as if in my late twenties, my body is gorgeous, my skin soft, smooth and wrinkle free (naturally), my mental state mature and refined…and have more male attention than ever. This is because I have been taking care exqusitely since my twenties
Miss Vegetable or whatever her name is, is feeling the lifetime of sun worship, bad food habits and alcohol—all of which I smartly avoided.
Hot 40 rules.
OMG! you are worse than Goop!
I hope you have a finely tuned sense of humor.
Ima give you what you want, Anna: I hope Hot 40 is followed immediately by Hit the Wall 41, Walked in On My S.O. Banging Someone Else 42, Ben & Jerry’s 43, etc. You doubtless deserve no less! Mwah.
Anna,in all fairness, Sophia had a much harder time of it than Gwyneth and had to work her tail off for many years to get where she is now. Gwyneth has pretty much been able to do whatever she wanted because of financial security that Sophia didn’t have starting out or for quite awhile. That can take its toll. Plus, her obvious assets that were necessary to get ahead, even with her hard work, will not be there forever. So its not surprising she feels differently about turning 40 than Gwyneth. But I think Sophia still looks great.
Well good for you! But nobody likes a braggart (“gorgeous”, “refined”, “exquisitely”), no matter how right he or she may be.
Anna, good for you!
What exactly is the point of turning 40 if you’ve been avoiding all the fun things in life? Sounds pretty dull, but hey, at least you’re wrinkle-free 😉
@trillian – exactly! I’m just going to slip into a coma in a humidified room. I’ll be a great looking corpse! This accomplishes…???
First of all, everyone always thinks they look younger than they are. In general, it’s incredibly rare for someone to think that they look their age. That’s because you look at yourself every day and don’t see it.
And fine, you’re awesome. Give it a few years. You’ll notice it soon enough. Everyone does in their 40s. You just have to be a big enough girl to get over it and move on, but everyone, sooner or later, looks down at their arms and wonders who they hell they got so wrinkly.
I’m pretty sure Anna is taking the piss here people!
@Huh – LOL, please be my friend?
I hated turning 40 3 years ago (even though I had a cute 25 year old boyfriend at the time). Know what I hate about it? I tried online dating, and men my age who haven’t had kids don’t want to go out with me, but the 55 year old dudes with pot bellies do. My knees hurt. My hair is getting grayer. I’ve been unemployed for a while and it’s been very hard finding a job. I look good physically – I never smoked and stopped boozing in my late 20s… I’m proud of my accomplishments, and I’m having a pity party for 1 today, but it’s hard dealing with it sometimes.
I feel you @NYC_girl! Online dating is a bust for us 40something “hotties.” 🙂 Maybe it *is* a reflection of real life tho – I get just as many late-20s guys looking for an older babe. Anyway, I don’t respond to any of them.
I hear ya, NYC girl. I am a bit older than you but most of the guys who want to hit on me look like they could be my dads, not just because their age but also because of their mental stage. Guys my age are not necessary cool dudes with a sophisticated philosophy about life. But that said I like Goopy and yes it is important to maintain self growths, have an open mind, be curious and stay reflective at the same time. Nothing wrong with her way of seeing things.
She’s so annoying, truly. As a peasanty, single mom, I try to promote getting through each day, keeping my 17-year-old and 4-year-old happy on a measly (in her mind I guess) $30,000 a year. I promote daycare, working full-time, coming home tired and wanting more to have a glass of wine and some spaghetti and talk to my kids than to do a cleanse or 2 hours of pilates. Self-growth? Hun, that comes naturally for most of us, it’s called life.
I think she means well, but holy crap. She really has no clue. And in my neighborhood, I’m considered well-off. She just doesn’t get how the other 99% live.
^^^ This. About sums it up.
^^ Yup. ITA.
And, “Ooops, I stepped on a peasant”?! Bwaaahaaaahaaa!
Best. Comment. EVER. 😀
She is talking about her own life. Why would she talk about motherhood, exercise and life in general from some other perspective and not her own? Should she pretend she’s not rich so she would fit in 99 percent? I don’t get it.
Because she comes off as patronizing and elitist – as does Gisele Bunchen and all those other fabulously wealthy and entitled women who love to preach to the unwashed masses. They really need to wind their necks in and understand that for the majority of women, their lives are not $515 sweaters and $450 cleanses – they are working in an office 40 hours a week, doing their own laundry, shopping, house-cleaning, kiddie-rearing without nannies and living on a very tight budget.
I understand that but still, that is not her life so why would she talk about it or pretend that she has our average problems when she doesn’t?
Wow, so a 40 year old woman isn’t allowed to say she feels ok with turning 40? The amount of condescension and bitterness in most of these comments show exactly why women are the most vicious about other women… So what if she’s rich and successful. I don’t see anything preachy or judgmental about her sharing her own experiences when asked. And whatever else you think of her, at least she seems to be a hands-on mother. But really, as a single working mom myself, the disgust and vitriol expressed by other women to someone who strikes me, whatever her shortcomings may be, as a decent Mom who is TRYING to do good, seems wildly misplaced.
Why should someone feel unwise to life just because they are making more money and have less stress in ife than you?
Wisdom is not the monopoly of the poor.
Listen, she’s obviously not preaching to the choir here, she is only talking to a select few. Im good with that. My issue is the fact that she has a lot of money for no particular reason at all and is always talking about the best ways to waste it. Meanwhile there are other people who genuinely work hard for a living and are lucky if they have a few bucks to waste in a week. I find it to be tacky. IMO
LOLOLOLOLOL darling in which Matrix world it is said that having more money equals less stress in life?
And her Dad was a director anyway so nepotism… Then with her dating Brad Pitt it certainly helped too, and now married to the frontman of one of the biggest bands on the planet helps to keep her afloat too.
Anyway my point is the attitude, rich or poor, people are insufferable that is all. And so pointing it out does it mean I’m poor? I certainly won’t hold my tongue if one behaves in a patronizing know-it-all way regardless of their background or the amount of money they make. The way Goop says it is definitely not to inspire but more like “oh look at me I’m reaching the nirvana, admire me!” tone. She has unfortunately the right to speak but um she’s far from wisdom per se, now it’s best she keeps quiet.
Forget that sense of humor comment upthread.
Anna, see my post above. There comes a point where the pontificating of the fabulously wealthy comes off as “rubbing your face in it”. Goop would win a lot more fans if she made an effort to reach every-day people with more reasonably priced and practical goods.
As for the perfection of your body and mind, meh. You sound as insufferable as she does.
Because she’s constantly trying to teach the rest of us things that are unattainable without her money and access. It IS patronizing and I wish she’d stop trying to be a self-help guru like Oprah & live her own life.
@Po
“…my issue is the fact that she has a lot of money for no particular reason”
Do not really agree with your comment as I do think she is a very talented actress. Directors who are considered among the best wanted to work with her and she has proven she can hold her own with some of the most talented actors. I could understand if you made that commend for somebody like Scarlett Johannson or Blake Livley. Successful actors are usually not among the poorest people but there not need for bashing them because of that, esp not the ones who are good at their craft.
wow, she looks tweaked and botoxy
Tracy Anderson can kiss my still fat 16mos PP ass. I’d rather be overweight than starve & exercise myself into oblivion. Also, I don’t have someone to watch my son so I can workout for the HOURS a day she promotes
I totally agree w/you & “get” what you’re saying, but looking at these pics of Tracy, there’s absolutely nothing to hate her for.
Yes, I know she’s preachy & all that…but just LOOK at her…bulimic cheeks, greasy face & hair, fake boobs…I feel sorry for her. She’s all into working out, starving herself…basically self-flagellation…for what? To look like THAT?! No thanks!
I’m sure you naturally look way better than she does.
Exactly! I don’t hate her, but I sure as hell don’t want to look like her either. I could starve myself & work out like crazy & I’d never look like her. My only real beef with her is that she thinks that every woman should fit into the same mold. She leaves no room for differing body types which is just nuts
Girl, I’m 16 YEARS PP, and I’m quite proud actually of the soft belly and now-slightly-more-floppity boobs that are the result of growing and nourishing my gorgeous daughter. Fuck people like this, seriously – it seems like to them, children are some kind of endurance test, something they prove themselves with and feel superior about. I only hope their kids rebel and show them how ridiculous they really are.
A lot of women aren’t freaked out about turning 40. I think it’s mostly needy women who can’t handle it.
Agreed. If you’re happy, content with your life and at peace with yourself and your body, there really is nothing horrible about turning 40.
Turning 48 in a few months & have been battling severe illnesses for most of those years. Happiest the last 18 years & totally agree:).
Ann, you are so right. When I was like 21, I thought 40 was “old”. But I’m now 43. Turning 40 was actually a day of real calm and peace for me; lots of life lessons that I was ready to learn helped with my evolution in thought about aging.
I sure didn’t feel like anyone needed to pick my ego up off the floor. While I can appreciate that other women feel differently, I find being in my 40’s a real blessing.
I turned 40 earlier this year…it’s honestly not a big deal. I’m happy with where I’m at, what I’ve accomplished so far, and my face looks good. (my arse looks 40, unfortunately, lol)
Not everyone thinks getting older is horrid.
I was a single-divorced mum on my 40th birthday… Financially struggling and raising two children on my own. It wasn`t horrible at all. If you are broke & struggling you don`t have any spare time to worry about turning 40! I Just wanted to survive and stay healthy so i could be a good mum. Fortunately, i look much younger than 44 because of my healthy lifestyle.(no smoking, tanning or drinking). I work with men (my dad`s business), and none of them think Botox makes women look younger or more attractive..just desperate & high-maintenance.
I’m kind of excited about turning 40, no lie – I’m at 38 and counting.
I’ve accomplished a lot, and it’s going to be the start of a second half of my life. My daughter will be starting college and I will still be her parent but no longer “a parent” if that makes sense? She’ll be out on her own, and my worries will be conceptual rather than ones which I must mitigate myself (unless she needs me to of course). I look good, but have FINALLY FINALLY FINALLY reached the point at which I don’t give a flying fart what skinny bitches with too much time on their hands think of my fat ass so if I think I look good it’s on MY terms.
Plus, I totally got carded last week. SCORE.
she looks like hell.
i really can’t stomach her rhetoric…’self growth’, ‘reflection’. ugh.
I agree that GOOP does not look good here. She looks “wan” and tired, her age.
I don’t get it. I am 40, no “treatments”, no botox, hell no fancy creams at all and I look very young, aglow, great skin, I look as if I have not aged. I have not had any problems with it and honestly I feel quite “cool” to have made this “age” looking as I do. Yeesh
This has got to be a joke. Yip, it must be.
Great point Anna! Because I have taken good care of myself, I am now reaping the benefits in my 40’s.
I have to wonder if I would like the person I’d be if I had botox-ed, filler-ed, and all that like Goop obviously does. I love this website because they point out that she is probably pretty unattractive on the inside.
Anna, hate to tell you this, but instead of looking in the mirror all day, thank your parents for giving you good genes.
Samantha Brick, is that you?
Oh my god, as if you’re anything like Samantha Brick. All you did was state that you managed to look hot while not being a celebrity. Why does that anger people so much? It’s no different than me saying my mom looks amazing at 63. She does, and she didn’t do anything extraordinary or expensive to get there.
@Lisa, it’s more the superficial disclaimers that were given throughout the comments of WHY she looks good at forty, e.g. being wrinkle free and looking like she hasn’t aged past twenty. Why can’t women just feel good about themselves without having to prove it’s b/c how “perfect” they look. If Anna can do this naturally, great, it’s in her genes but realistically most women don’t get to forty without a laugh line or two. It doesn’t mean they don’t look good or should feel bad that they did something wrong in their life to deserve it.
People, I kind of have a feeling Anna is just putting on an Internet persona here to piss people off. A sort of virtual replica of Goop. I wouldn’t take her too seriously.
G. Is acting like a headcase, wish she would stop preaching her empty psycho-babble nonsense.
G. is a good actress, but the sweater designing, Goop poop fasting, and psychobabble speeches are exhausting. I think her marriage has been shaky for years, and has made her insecure–which i understand. Someone should advise her to stop talking & preaching because Goop isn`t even likable anymore. I think back to how confident she was in her 20`s, Won an Oscar, and was a very private person…that Gwenyth is dead.
Goop needs to invest in some knee length and below the knee dress/skirts. Tracy’s shoes are fug.
“…and if I were chocolate I would eat myself.” gah.
Goop is so introspective that one day she’ll disappear into her own navel, never to be seen again.
One can only hope….
Her stomach looks bloated – is she pregnant? I say yes. If she were truly introspective, she would realize how she sounds and stop talking.
I think this is probably the best comment made about Goopy yet.
Promoting self-growth and reflection every day sounds exhausting.
There’s nothing funnier than watching Tracy demonstrating her dancing exercises. It’s like watching a drunken lemur with a very self- important face. Her strengthening exercises are not bad, though nothing revolutionary. As for her diet plan, I didn’t even finish reading. If you say I’m not allowed spices in my food, I’m going to put the dogs on you.
No spices? What the literal frack??
I’m surprised Chelsea Handler was there; she seems much too vulgar and vile to be associated with Her Goopiness. Also: Gwyneth & Tracy both look like they were…gently pressed in a George Foreman Grill before they stepped out.
Goop and Chelsea bonded over calling their dead grandmothers c*nts on tv last year.
Ohh, that’s right. Classy!
Look at the second picture. See the guy in the background. The one and only Steven Huvane. He is working to bring all his girls together. So yes I get why old Handler would be at a Goop celebration. But kind of sad that someone you barely know would be included. Handler is hardly the kind of person you would see Goop hanging with. She doesn’t have the money or the Alist status.
They bonded on CHShow calling their grandmothers the C***. No accounting for taste … Somehow I think Goop is as a lot like Chelsea, she just works alot harder to portray otherwise.
Lisa2 – you are so insightful and sweet. Can you please post other interesting observations of how things work when celebrities become friends? I always trust the insight of someone who is clearly a failed Hollywood wannabe when pointing out how things in Hollywood happen.
Tracy’s shoes with the length of her dress make her look short and dumpy!
I don’t think you can blame the shoes or dress length for that.
Even the baby looks like he wants to be in different company.
LOL “I think I try to promote and self-growth and reflection for myself every day.” I try to give Gwyneth credit and don’t bash her, but this is just tooooo much. So sanctimonious and all I’m so deep and together try-hardy. Does she ever talk about the work anymore, and the whole every single day after school there is soccer scrimmage in her yard, LOL, right every single day? I think not. But I guess she thinks it makes her sound like mother earth, home with the kiddies.
I do believe if not obssessed with working out, that the mind/body connection is true. I find when I really work out consistently and usually that for me includes running, I feel much better mentally and connected to my body in a strong, healthy way. But, unfortunately, I think she carries it to a whole other degree, like one of my friends, that obssessively runs if it means five in the morning, works, then back to the gym for weights in between her job, which she also brags how much she is doing workwise, and this is all week, save one day off, but more importantly brings it up to people all the time like she’s better than us mere mortals who slept in before putting in a full day of work and family care (which reminds me of Gwyneth always bragging, waiting for that pat on the back or proclamations of how jealous we are of her dedication).
I still go back to amazing interviews with Natasha Richardson and Cate Blanchett and Glenn Close, etc, over the years that I have read or watched that were so interesting and showed truly interesting women, not Gwynnie and the like who are just obssessed with this kind of nonsense in every interview.
Great comment Jayna – yes, it seems that Goop’s proselytizing is all totally self-centred and rather vain, whereas these other wonderful women you mention are all about experiencing other things, going outward to learn and share issues that their good fortune can offer them instead of $450 cleanses, the best workouts and the right kinds of face-creams.
I knew Goopy was on the tallish side but I never knew Tracey was so stumpy…she’s the Tom Cruise of exercise guru’s.
Does she EVER tire of talking about herself? Didn’t she used to be an actress? Did she just come in off the tennis court in that stupid skirt outfit and throw on some ugly orange heels (peasanty!)?
So when someone asks her a direct question about her on a red carpet who should she speak about? perhaps you Boo? I mean at least your life has meaning and substance, even if you’re too modest to scream it from the rooftops.
She’s at the top of my “Celebs I’m gonna slap the crap out of their brains” list!
Edit : and that baby Is really cute and he also looks actually like one of those baby dolls wow!
Birchbox partnered with her on October’s box. I’m dying to know what is going to be in it. I chose the Goop one over the regular one just ’cause I couldn’t pass up seeing firsthand what kind of weird crap she might put in it.
Oh! Wish I could order one but I’m in Canada. Shame on them for not shipping here!
That sucks! They’re super fun to get each month. Maybe they’ll expand at some point. 🙂
What is birchbox?
Birchbox is a monthly subscription sample service. You get this adorably wrapped box in the mail, with various mid, to high-end skin, hair, scent, nail, beauty samples, and usually 1 lifestyle item, which might be earbuds, a new type of energy bar, a makeup bag, etc., and it’s only $10 a month. Usually you get about 5-6 products. There’s usually 10-20 different boxes going out, so you really don’t know until the last minute after it’s shipped which box you are getting – I love the surprise and it’s like getting a little gift in the mail each month. Sometimes “sample” size is a full size Stila eyeliner or lipgloss, or a full-size facial brightening wash. It really varies the sizes, but nevertheless, you get to try lots of different stuff. You get points for reviewing the product on the website, and with those, you can buy full-size products. Occasionally they have specialty boxes, where they partner with a TV show, or a fashion line, etc. This month we had the choice between the regular box or the Goop box. Soooo…we’ll see how it goes. 😉
You can look at their website, but there’s also a ton of blogs, youtube channels, etc., where people do a box opening/review, talk about the products, etc.
Christy Turlington was there! I’m with you, Kaiser, can’t believe she’s jumping on that bandwagon. I would think her yoga practice & lifestyle would mean she actually understands the mind/body connection (side-eye at goop). The “Anderson method” seems to be damaging to both with a focus on benefiting vanity.
But I’m just a peasant on a goop thread…
“Forty years of being a narcissistic elitist, huzzah! Oooh, I stepped on a peasant.”
Lol! Still laughing at this!Classic!
Nothing new for Goop she’s predictable, but her body looks great like she takes good care of it (she tells us often), her face and hair, like she doesn’t take enough care, it’s odd. Tracy, you look fat, did you recently have a baby, it shows, hahahahahahaha! Aren’t you on the air diet yet??
Gwenny usually has good legs. But they have a weird shape to me. Kind of wonky. She should let the mini mini dresses go. Bring the hem down a bit. That skirt and top are not a good look. The top looks too small and so does the skit. It doesn’t fit well.
I think the majority of women are not crying because they are getting older. I think women that are really happy in their lives and with themselves don’t sweat getting older. Many women (not all ) but many women that do are not happy with something about themselves; it could be body, work, relationship, whatever. But that to me is the problem. Gwenny is always doing some random crap. She seems to be trying to fill a void. And why do celebrities have to have so many birthday celebrations. I could name a few celebs that are way more popular and high profile and we don’t see them celebrating a birthday every other day.
I think something is seriously missing in her life’ and all the self growth and reflection won’t fill it if you can’t face that truth. Reminds me of Katie Holmes doing all those random things.. cooking, singing, dancing, designing.. you name it. then BAM the marriage fell apart.
I think it is her marriage. JMO
Kristen Wiig is her new friend? Noooooooooooo!
see this is why I love This site. we the people have a place we can come to & speak our mind about the likes of Goop. She must be really f’d up in the head. I live by a simple plan that has done me pretty well it’s called the golden rule.
Anyhoo 40 was easy for me it was that next one that caught me off gaurd didn’t see the waterworks coming for that one. but hey like so many of us strong peasants I put one front in front of the other-I do my best at work-I take my mascara off & wash my face @ night slap on some moisturizer sleep well & get up & do it again! Rock on peasants!!!
Amen! ROCK ON Sugar:)!
Sugar you are SO right! If only every site allowed us to vent our envy and judgement on others. Finally we have a forum to show the world that us women, who have nothing better to do than write comments on the lives of people we envy, are much much more stylish and pretty and all-together happier than this loser who keeps talking about her kids and trying to be a better woman. Shame on her! I want more SUGAR!!! xxxx
God P Simon did someone per in your designer Goop granola this morning? This site is called Celebitchy. If you want something kinder google Celebenicetoeveryone and see what you can find.

power to the peasant!
Can’t stand Tracy but I looooooove what Goop’s wearing. Those shoes mmmm.
Turning 40 was horrible. Turning 50 was great. Go figure.
That gives me hope!
I think some people can be comfortable with turning 40.
With respect to the question of when she will stop flat ironing her hair— that is not her hair. I am sure of it. I remember in a few of her movies a very long time ago (sorry, i don’t remember which ones, kind of realatively early into her super stardom) her hair in a few shots was VERY thin. Then for awhile in public she was almost always rocking a phony tail I know was not hers– it was too thick. I don’t know how she does it– I am not a hair expert. I know it doesn’t look wig like because we can see her scalp at the part. I don’t know if she got travolta like plugs on the underlayers (do they do that for women?) or whether she has normal extensions or what. All I know is that hair is not a born with it kind of scene. Theories as to how she does it? I will try to find a clip of her with thinning hair in the mean time.
Yes they do it for women. Early morning infomercials for them. Wouldn’t doubt that theory on Goop, been thinking the same thing.
Having 3 autoimmune illnesses that are causing hair loss & watching my long curly thick hair fall everywhere & down the drain wish I could pull a Goop:).
Oh Green eyes I am so sorry to hear that! Big Hugs. In my search to find a clip or shot of her with thinning hair I came upon an old gossip report that she was struggling with hair loss back in the day but had a great response to rogaine. I do think she uses a number of other solutions as well. I hope you can pull a goop that works for you (I mean I hope only that you can get your hair back where you want, not that you become smug or creepy, of course).
Thank you Rachel, your very kind:). Can’t use rogain, since it’s due to illness. Hoping they get them under control & it comes back. Been a rough 13 months w/ them. But this too will pass. If all else fails I’ll just have fun w/ different colored wigs lol, 😉
Hey Rachel… although you seem to be a hair expert, I work with Gwyneth and I can assure you that IS her hair. Nonetheless, I can understand how a woman who probably is troll ugly, without any discernable talent or a life to speak of, can spend her time writing mean comments to somehow make herself feel better… Sorry to burst your bubble honey, but maybe you should take a good long look in the mirror and work on yourself before you insult others.
She’s had Botox recently. I’ve been using it for years, I live in LA, I know it when I see it.
She’s a fake competitive person and very over-rated as an actress.
Is it just me or does she look older than 39 (especially since she tweaks w/ Botox)?
Living where I do, I see more women in their 40’s & like me nearer to 50 that look less severe & younger than GOOP & do so naturally. Just a question…. Because she just looks different, more harsh & severe..that does give an aged appearance.
No, it’s not just you. I also think she looks much older than 40. Same with Cameron Diaz. Both have become very hard looking – perhaps through having ‘work’ done, perhaps through excessive dieting.
I think part of the peal they have lost is in their faces. A thin layer of fat does wonders for the face. As Catherine Deneuve (supposedly) said once, “At a certain age, you have to choose between your face and your ass”.
These two haggard faced women have clearly chosen ass. Now, Goop could learna lesson from Courtney whatshername, and layoff the bronzer and change her hair. A softer look would do wonders for her, no more or less make up, but the idea of nicer skin, but I do think that many times her tan is real, as in ” I take a vacation in Spain/Mexico/namebeach) at least once a month)= status.
Her hair isn’t flattering. That flat-ironed look, flat against the scalp is rarely flattering on 40 and older. Plus, she is sunburned with a shiny face, which probably gives her a harsher and/or older look. She would probably look younger with a softer tan, not so dark or red. At least, she isn’t plumped up with fillers and has some natural lines.
“

“I try to promote self-growth and reflection for myself every day.”
WTF does that even MEAN?
it probably involves a full length mirror
I agree with Jane. Gwyneth is VERY over-rated as an actress. An Oscar? Seriously? Just shows what the Weinstein’s can do in Hollywood. And she has not aged well, and looks about 45. So let her blather on to the peasants about “self growth.” It’s pretty obvious she hasn’t spent much time on her education.
But why hasn’t anyone commented on Tracy Anderson looking like a midget next to Gwyneth? I literally did not know who she was (had to look her up), but I thought she might be in “Little People, Big World.” And she has such huge boobs she looks like she’s going to tip over!
I, me, myself, me, me me me. Who are we talking about again? Oh right, me.
This is quite mean but Tracy looks like a troll in the first picture. That round, eerily grinning face, those stumpy little legs robbed of all shape by those horrific cage shoes… plus the fact that she kinda looks like an oddly shrunken, distorted version of Goop. Whenever they’re photographed together they look creepy siblings from different dimensions, with matching dyed flatironed blonde hair and the shiny Botox faces.
Also LMAO at that picture of Goop getting interviewed by the Extra host! That picture basically sums up her life. He’s all, “Oookay, crazy white lady.”
Another thing- even though Goop’s insufferable in real life, I love her as Pepper Potts in Iron Man! Or maybe I just love Iron Man. Anyone else having to reconcile those two things?

Ahaha! That is a perfect description
Im with sophia v. On the forty issue. At least sophia is honest about how she feels. Unlike goop how u can tell secretly loathes the fact that shes getting older. Goop is so phony and fake.
That is not a flattering outfit. It makes her belly to look she is 3 months along. It could be the photos but their bodies is not something one nessessarly would be jealous of truly.
I have nothing to say about the always getting dumped handjob.
Gwyneth looks CRAZY in these photos.
Look at that face in the interview photo!! That FACE!!! That maniacle, CRAZED, lunatic face. Thats what poor Chris Martin has to live with, deal with and sleep with. I think we can all get the picture that “Gwynnie” is a complete, maniacle LOON. Rich. Entitled. Crazy. Loon.
Just because her mother aged nicely doesn’t mean she will.
For lack of a better word, both she and Tracy look “dry”. Dry hair, dry skin, brittle bodies lacking in muscle tone. Gwyneth has early osteoporosis from all her dieting. You’d think she’d get into some more moderate weights to help with her bone density. Nope, let’s do 1000 reps at 3 lbs instead! Argh!
I love you Kaiser!
You are so funny!!
Love your take on GOOP.
I think she is celebrating a new year for her beautiful, oversized, but shapely EGO….
And yes, who amongst the many will bravely sit her down and recite the rules for proper skincare?
1) sunscreen x 100
She definitely didn’t inherit her mothers good looks.
Gwynie looks so hard faced and her thin fried hair doesn’t help.
So that’s Tracy Anderson. I thought that was Apple Martin.
40 is great, it is a wonderful age for women! Women are very beautiful and they gained maturity with their life experience, and i believe it is still young. A lot of my girlfriends are over forty and never looked better! 40 is the new 30! enjoy today, you never as young as today!!!
This age thing is ridiculous…
WHAT is wrong with their faces? They both look like beardless Richard Bransons
alright, her personality sucks but at least hire a makeup/hair artist so we can look at something pretty? SO mean i know but i just can’t with this uppity elitist broad
To me the issue is that Gwynnie sounds like a hypocrite whereas Sofia sounds more honest. I mean Gwyneth spends a lot of time and energy on preserving her looks, such as huge amounts of exercises and “cleanses” (ie a weight loss program disguised as something else)and probably tons of money on skin procedures as well.
Clearly she worries about losing stuff as she gets older, but just like Nicole Kidman she chooses to pretend that she doesn’t. I don’t really think that they are delusional, but maybe they don’t want to set a bad example out in the open? Plus it would be a sign of weakness too.
