Oooooh. Last night was the big GoopFest (Goopapolooza?) in Nashville for the premiere of Country Strong, the Gwyneth Paltrow film where she plays a “washed up” drunky country singer. Goopy deigned to wear Ralph Rucci, and The Mail is making a fuss over the dress having a small rip in the bodice. Bad move, Goopster. Usually she would never deign to wear anything less than perfect! Beyond the rip, I actually like the dress. It’s not love, it’s not lust, but it’s a solid “like”. Look at her with this young child:
He’s just clinging to Goopy for deal life. I guess he’s a costar, maybe? Eh. Tim McGraw was also there (he costars in the film), with his wife Faith Hill. I don’t care for Faith’s dress all that much, but whatever. I guess she was trying to avoid being a scene-stealer. McGraw told reporters: “The biggest challenge was to be on the screen with Gwyneth. You just want to play to the level [of] the person you’re playing against. It certainly made me a better actor, being there with her. Everybody around her rises when she’s in a scene. She’s a great country singer, because when it came out, it was pure honesty. You know, the thing about country music, it’s such an honest [type of] music.”
Anyway, my vote for worst dressed goes to Leighton Meester, who plays Goopy’s rival and younger version (it’s an All About Eve thing). Leighton fugged it up really badly in this ensemble:
The worst part is that weird gold thing on her boob, I think. Just hideous.
Anyway… that young heartthrob Garrett Hedlund wasn’t there (boo), so these are the biggest stars we’ve got. Here are some more photos from the premiere:
What is with the dress? Goopy looks like a Russian ice dancer.
Tim McGraw’s sweater and slacks outfit makes him look like a supply teacher who’s going to get punched in the head in fifth period.
I hate the dress but at least her hair and makeup look good.
Did Tim McGraw get plugs? This is the best I’ve seen Faith Hill look in forever. She must be eating or something.
isn’t Goopy wearing the same fug shoe we saw on Rachel McAdams yesterday? I think Goop is going to shank her stylist!
oh, goopy’s dress looks WAY better from the side. that pic from the front does her NO favors…makes her look like she has no figure at all. or that of a pre-teen boy…
not a country music fan at all but dang, Tim McGraw is kind of hot, huh?
Praise – Yes, Tim looks like he’s lost some weight and figured out what to do with his hairline. He does looks pretty good.
Is that really a little child….if so, what an older looking face he has. Meester’s dress is not a good look. I am surprised at some things people feel look good. Wow
Not a fan of the bellybutton showing through the dress…keep it for the beach.
O.M.G This is like hawt mess central!!! Damn. Just train wreck, my eyes…my eyes…my precious sight. WTF. This is the worse redcarpet I have ever seen. They were all TRYING SO HARD to be fabulous that makes my heart break in two. This didn’t have to happen.
That awful dress does nothing for your figure Gwen. Nothing. Faith, sweetie are you going to work…at an office…WTF?
OMG Leighton Meester NOOOOOO!!!! No Stop. Tell who ever is doing this to get away from you…hit them with a brush. This outfit does nothing for your body. OMG its sooo hideous, the colors clash like nobodies business, over designed. It looks like she is wearing a slutty Vegas dress under a crochet of something my grandma would do.
My GWAD the horror of this red carpet…I have to Tweet this…I have to show people what not to do. This is awful. Only Tim looks decent.
The dress looks very fragile, it prob. ripped while she was wearing it…
yes those are the fugtastic and universally unflattering shoes whatserboringface had on yesterday. they have tricked at least 2 people into wearing them so far. we will see who falls prey next.
Yuck. I hate it. You can see her belly button. I don’t want to see her belly button.
I love the fact that Martina McBride was there to support her bestie Faith Hill!
@Dani I was going to edit my comment to include that. Martina looks Fantastic. LOVE her.
& what has Faith done to her face?? Work done there for sure.
Guess I am in the minority here, but I love the dress and think she looks the best she has in a long time.
Leighton’s dress is so ugly, it looks like she ran into her granny’s closet, grabbed a few things. Cut, paste, voila! Fug dress.
Gwyneth is one of those women who get better looking with age. I think she looks gorgeous! Fabulous figure!
Tim McGraw looks like he’s wearing a rug or had some plugs put in. He does look good here.
I liked Faith’s dress. No strong feelings about Goops’. Leighton’s – horrible!
Gwyneth looks beautiful!! Her face looks different though. hmmmm…maybe she looks different because her hair is much fuller than she usually wears it.
A real shame about Leighton’s dress. She is such a pretty girl.
On a popular fashion blog Leighton was actually voted Best Dressed.
I LOVE those shoes that McAdams and now Gyweneth wore!
Well Skibunny I agree but Gwen really works at. Gwen exercises regularly and she does cleanses and detoxes, I am sure she is using some amazing beauty products and organic body washes a mere mortal can’t afford. I doing all that now so I like that good when I am her age. I need to subscribe to that Goop.
I love GOOP’s dress, she looked great! Too bad it was ripped, must have ripped either in the car or on the carpet. She never would have gone out with rip and she definitely would have had a back-up dress.
I think Goop looks gorgeous-face and hair-but the dress is hideous. It looks like Tim McGraw has stopped partying and started working out-looks much healthier.
Dress-ugh. Face looks alot better when it’s a real smile.
That dress….no, just no. As W.O.M. said, it looks like a figure skater’s dress. The skirt doesn’t hang right and the bodice gives her the chest of a 12-year-old boy. And when is this woman ever going to wear another hairstyle, or something other than that pale lipstick that makes her look completely washed out? Get a haircut and try some color, Gwennie!!!

Personally I think it’s in the genes plus lifestyle plays a major role. I dont buy into all that “expensive products” crap. The only thing I have splurged on is a clarisonic and my vitamin c serum. Worth every penny!
the way the bodice is designed -narrow at the top, wider towards the waist- gives the illusion that goop is wider at the waist than she is. and nobody wants to see her bellybutton. FAIL.
tim is getting more handsome. why has he been hiding under a cowboy hat all these years? he’s a cutie!
leighton! such a beauty and dressed in a modern art piece of mixed textures, hot pink and gold. hot mess alert!
not a fan of gwyneth’s belly button either. dress re-design – would move the waistline one inch up and the neckline is too high. neckline should be lower or change the styling with gwen wearing her hair up.
Wow. She looks great! I don’t like her at all, but in fairness, she looks better than ever. Almost… sexy. So, is that botox? Seriously. I think it is. She has that shiney plastic forehead that you only get with the ‘box. But it is done VERY well.
Actually Gwennie looks like a blond Jessica Beil here. Strange.
I like the “idea” of country music mashing with another genre (like Goop Royalty) about as much as I liked it when Snoop Dog went to Nashville and wore a cowboy hat. Yeah, hysterical photo. What music exactly came out of that?
I never paid much attention to Goopy before, her body is kind of like a tube.
Well Skibunny I don’t think her genes have anything to with it even though I think Gwen’s mom is lovely. I think its more so her lifestyle.
I was gonna to invest in a Clarisonic but I am cheap. I think using muslin cloth in my facial cleansing routine is helping without the price of that device. I may still get that Clarsonic Mia because its soo cute and small but I want that face and body one to, because I think that would help when I exfoliate every where. Which one do you have?
Is that a nipple ring showing through on the Goopster? 2nd photo from the bottom.
Love it with the exception of the hem. Throws off the entire dress. Cheapens it.

I have both but dont waste your money on the body brush. Just get the Mia. A loofah will do the same on your body as the clarisonic brush IMO. My skin broke out at the beginning but it’s been amazing since. I’ve always had a good skin care regimen and didnt think it would make that much of a difference but it does. I highly recommend it. If you dont like it,it has a 30 day trial period.
oh god not those fuggy fug fug ass shoes again…. rachel mcadams wore the same ugly shit the other day….
This is driving me nuts – where is the rip? I’m sure it’s right in front of me but I can’t find it.
I can see her stick-on boob cover in the last shot, which is odd, she usually likes displaying her nude boobs.
Terrible dress and does nothing for her…where the skirt hits is bad, and with that much mesh, you’re just asking for a rip. Trying to imagine what Project Runway judges would have said about this one…
The bellybutton is too tacky. Might have worked better if the last strip was just a solid black line around her waist.
Leighton looks so beautiful but her dress is terrible! The styling she had on GG last night made her look flawless. She needs to take some style hints from her character. It suits her best.
Skibunny:
I’ve heard really great things about the clarasonic brush too. I haven’t gotten it yet because I’m worried if it makes your pores bigger? With all that scrubbing?
ew. lookie at her belly button. yikes! and i do not want her to do a country movie. ugh.
“Tim McGraw’s sweater and slacks outfit makes him look like a supply teacher who’s going to get punched in the head in fifth period.”
Aahahaha!!
Yeah it’s true. He’s usually so cute though. heheh Poor Tim.
Geez. They’re supposed to remove the umbilical cord. Shudder.

No actually it does the complete opposite. It makes them disappear. The only thing I could say is that sometimes less is more. Meaning if you scrub too hard or too long it can make you break out which you may in the beginning anyway. Sometimes I’ll skip a day.I use cetaphil cleanser with mine because it’s very gentle. But it cleans the pores out and makes your skin very soft and smooth. Even my husband has commented on my skin.
Skibunny: Thanks for the answer! 🙂 I think I may just have to take the plunge with the brush. I’ve been considering it for some time now but at $200 for a face washer, I’ve been hesitant. I’ve read online reviews and people always praise it.
I have the sonicare toothbrush which I love and I’ve read the technology is the same.
Boobless Barbie – the old-fashioned Barbie without joints in the arms or legs!
Fish Sticks got cheek filler like everybody else. Without it she looks old and gaunt.
The stars are looking like Tootsie Roll Pops – big heads, cheeky faces and stick bodies.
omg gwen is pretty
while we’re talking about skin cleaning here…. i like pre-washing with jojoba oil and scrubbing with a grindy face wash, the oil makes the grindy stuff slide all over easily, and feels less ruff than scrubbing w/out the oil
