I was going to wait to cover these new photos of Gwyneth Paltrow until I had gotten a chance to look at this week’s GOOP-letter, but whatever. These are photos of Gwyneth attending the “Bent of Learning” benefit last night. Something about Zen and yoga, I think. Her dress is J. Mendel, and good God is it fug and unflattering. This is something I have never understood about Gwyneth: she works out for HOURS every day and neurotically obsesses over her diet, so why does she consistently choose styles that don’t flatter her figure? This dress ADDS weight on her slender frame. Perhaps she’s trying to look “fat” so that she can appeal to chunky peasants?
Now let’s talk about her face. LOBSTER GOOP. That’s what it is. In Gwyneth’s mind, she resembles an exquisite pink diamond (not like the tacky one Ben Affleck gave J. Lo, Goop sniffs), but in truth, the bitch just needs to remember her sunscreen.
Ahhh, she just released her Goop. It’s about Father’s Day, because Gwyneth will absolutely exhaust you with tales about her late father, and barely mention that she was also raised by a mother who adored her and enabled her as well. Poor Blythe Danner. Gwyneth probably tells Blythe that she’s fat too. Or maybe Goop is still pissed that her mom is descended from peasants. Anyway, you can read this week’s Goop here – it’s an interview with her very dear friend, the editor in chief of Bon Appetit. She also shills for her cookbook.

Face good. Outfit bad.
Sack dress! And where did her eyebrows go?
I think the red on her face is from having facial peels/dermabrasion and not sunburn.
Someone’s been hitting the ‘tox, I see.
Her face looks different to me. Like beyond just having a little extra color in it different.
Hrm. As much as she annoys me sometimes and despite the meh dress, I still think she looks kinda pretty.
edit: but you’re right, her face seems a bit less “natural” than she makes it to be
Is it just me or does it look like she’s had something done to her face? Botox maybe? And yes, that dress is heinous.
strange and ugly dress
Kaiser, seriously, out of all the people, I am surprised you didn’t notice how tweeked she looked? She totally pulled the Fergie!
O.K., I’ll be the one out, but I like the dress. I thought she looked good. But, I must agree, looking a bit Botox’ed. Say it ain’t true Gwen?!
Fug and unflattering is the perfect words to describe this dress. Its awful but I think Gwyn looks pretty in the face.
Her face is weird now… I never find her style flattering, by the way
Hey Kaiser!
I think that she’s going for the “I’m thin so I can wear baggy things and it’ll look cute instead of make me look big” look.
Also, I agree. Her face looks very different… I think that it’s probably the fillers and ‘tox. The fillers (as far as I can tell) make people look stuffed (a la KK).
Whatever. Sorry about the name change CB – saw the same former name making comments which weren’t from me.
She looks like she’s had something done with her lips.
Well, I do really like the shoes…
There’s a v. funny article in the Daily Mail about trying out Goop’s recipes on your kids: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-2003993/Gwyneth-Paltrow-diet-Would-feed-family-cabbage-crisps-kale-risotto.html
Basically, the writer says that the ingredients are hard to find, super expensive, and the recipes usually turn out gross!
Yeah, her shoes are cute.
Do I spy cheek implants????
TOGA! TOGA! TOGA!
Yes, her face was tweaked recently – her lips. She used to have skinny lips that made her face appear more like a block, or square because of her jawline…now with plump lips, and no doubt fillers, she no longer has that hard look about her. An improvement for sure!!! She looks more appealing so good for her.
Wth did she do to her face? Ugly dress, too.
She tries way too hard with her fashion choices. It smacks of desperation.
She’s good at a lot of things – just not dressing herself.
If by “color” you mean botox then YEP I see it too!
Ummm GOOPY I think if you wear a BRA hon you won’t have to wear under armor underneath that sack.
She needs an eyebrow pencil and a bra. Love her shoes though!
she did something to her face. chemical peel?
i don’t care about the dress but her face looks different (like Demi Moore is different now than when she was 30)
It’s like she was taking off her shorts outfit from her day lounging in the Hamptons making fun of the fat people at the beach, and forgot to to take off the sleeveless top and threw her dress on over the top of it. Whoever thought this worked was wrong.
Speaking of chemical peels, I was at the DMV here in LA yesterday to get a new fabulous drivers license pic taken and there was a woman behind me in line for the photo, who patently had a peel two or three days ago! Imagine that license picture, which you keep here in CA for 10 years! What a dumbass.
something tells me when goop looks in the mirror she sees a grecian goddess. when i look at her i see collagen lips, botox, fillers, fried hair and bad skin.
Not a huge fan of the dress but she looks really pretty here.
Hate the fried skin and hair. She’d look better with her natural fair skin and some lowlights. Wish she’d go back to the shorter hair too.
The dress is great, but she’s starting to look like that awful trainer of hers, which is not a good thing.
I think she looks great. Vibrant, happy, healthy. Why all the GOOP hate?!
yeah – I LOVE THE SHOES!!!
She looks different (better) the dress is ugly. I do like the shoes though.
she never has been so beautiful! really stunning! but the dress is fug
she looks gross in everything because she’s gross on the inside. 🙁
As much as I adore Gwyneth for the the amazing actress/singer whatever else she does I have to agree with the majority of you lot on here about doing something to her face, it doesn’t look as natural.. it defiently looks like she has had some sort of Botex or something, but I have to disagree with most of you, I absolutly love that dress [not my style of clothing] but it looks great on her. Also I have to disgree and rant on about people calling her ‘gross on the inside’ to be honest, you may think she is ‘self absorbed’ and ‘only thinks about herself’ but you can’t say that she is ‘gross on the inside’ because I bet none of you have ever spoken to her or in fact met her. – You can’t call or say something about someone when you don’t even know them, stop being so god damn judgemental and appreciate her for the work she has done. She’s forever supporting people, her family, friends, she’s giving her children the best life possible, which is probably more then can be said for you lot that wouldn’t spend three thousand on a top (Neither would I but if you have the money, why not?)
Not the most flattering dress.
love the shoes. I want to say they are by Pierre Hardy but i cant say for sure. Anyone know for sure?
That upper lip looks VERY suspicious.
@holly, i think you’re lost.
I love Gwyneth! and IMO she looks good! She always does!
I love those shoes! Stand back from the face tanner, Gwynnie.
I kinda dig the dress and the shoes are awesome. Her face definitely looks a little different, and her lips look like they’ve had some filler added.
She has a 3rd lip now!
Her face looks fuller, more padding, so she’s had something done because she looked pretty old before. I wonder if she’ll talk about her “natural” endive facelift or herbal Botox treatments in the next Goopie Poopie?
Ok, I find Goopy annoying, but I don’t get the vitriol when compared with that blood-vial wearing, cheesy tattoo inscribing, brother-sucking, Billy-Bob-Thornton marrying, heroin-injecting, finger-down-the-throat vomiting, orphan-kidnapping St. Angie-Jo. Really, is Pasty so bad? By the way, what is everyone’s thoughts on saunas for hangovers?
Kasper, i think you’re cold and dull.
I really wish she would stop bleaching her hair that blonde. It washes her out.
Weird, she looks like Kate Moss here. Her haircolor needs to be toned down — too brassy and too yellow and one-tone all over — looks very Miss Clairol bathroom sink…not goopy at all!
like a modern day Veda Pierce.
I still have trouble understanding her hair. I mean, she was never really going to be the drop dead gorgeous girl or the bombshell. So why does she continue to bleach it and straighten it until it looks like cotton candy run through a pasta machine? Is it worth it just to be blonde?
@kasper
not to sound like a loonie but those are all things (expect the kidnapping kids thing) that Angelina did in the past, somewhat. But she matured out of those things. Goopy has always been this way and always will be.
Her eyes look squinty like it is difficult or painful to smile.
I don’t mind the dress because it honestly looks less ‘tight’ and uncomfortable than her face. 🙁 Such a shame because Goopy really was quite pretty.
I kill myself laughing at the Goop comments on this site. Expresions of hatred and envy and scorn for this (admittedly ridiculous) woman seem to have acquired the status of high art. Delicious.
