I guess we know why The Goopster doesn't really care about all those Chris Martin cheating rumors and stories. In an interview with Refinery29 The Goopster says that cheating is taken too seriously and that people shouldn't be all that concerned about being committed to one person because then you start worrying about that part of your life and should focus on other parts of your life instead. Huh. Sounds like a woman who has rationalized all the cheating that has gone on in her life. I wonder if it goes back to her dad cheating on her mom or if this is just a Goopster way of dealing with the pain.
To really show how much she doesn't care about who she is with Gwyneth says she would date a guy with a sex addiction and also would marry a man with the same thing. I guess she is good with all of that as long as the guy is willing to pretend to eat her diet.
Gwyneth likes to pretend to be British, so I'm sure she likes to think she has a European approach to fidelity.
ReplyDeleteTrue romantic love and connection is so plebeian
ReplyDeletewow, low self esteem,anyone?
ReplyDeleteRemember when you'd come on here, and felt like every post was some kind of inside scoop? You'd feel like you were getting the in on some dirt no one was supposed to know, some revelation about a dark side teams of publicists tried at vain to hide from the public eye...
ReplyDeleteThose days seem gone. Now it's snarky opinionated blurbs about celebs covering half-news like this.
@plokzy: when the churn is cranked up to 20+ posts / day, there is gonna be some filler.
ReplyDeleteThis don't surprise me about Goop. Whatever happens outside her lil bubble doesn't matter to her. That poor bastard is never gonna taste freedom again. His only way out is to beat her, and that would probably kill his career.
I agree with Count about the half-news but the filler is always 1-2 days later than every other site.
ReplyDeleteTori: I get the filler a day or 2 earlier from dlisted or the daily mail
DeleteLet's be real here, ALL MEN CHEAT. If there's one man out there who doesn't, he's probably riding around on a unicorn. I think what Goopy is saying is that it's not worth breaking up your family and screwing up your kids over. And I agree. It's just stupid to pretend like men are capable of fidelity and love. Men are like Count Jerkula (no offense man, you make me lol and I'm not hating on ya) and if you think otherwise, you're delusional or he's running some good game on your naive ass. They want to fuck everything and anything that comes their way. You can accept it or not, it has nothing to do with "self-esteem" or anything, it's just nature.
ReplyDeleteI agree with you to a certain extent. I use to think that 100% of all the men on the face of this Earth are cheaters. However, I would still like to have some small glimpse of faith in men that there are some good ones out there, maybe including Count. LOL!! Ok..I'm on some cold medicine so many e I'm being delusional about Count but still...there are some good men out there, it's just super hard to find them among all these cheating bastarda out there. Sucks for us faithful women!!
DeleteTotally agree
DeleteFuck that! You can't make generalisations which are sweeping all encompassing statements about ANYONE. I think this just reveals things about your own issues and shit. Good luck with that too.
DeleteIts not like GOOP never cheated on anyone. But she should advocate cheating because she isn't very interested in getting laid much at all.
ReplyDelete@ Plokzy: *sigh* Yeah
ReplyDelete"I wonder if it goes back to her dad cheating on her mom..."
Is Perez Hilton writing these now?
agree, Goopy is trying to appear sophisticated and above it all when we can all just envision her crying her unicorn tears..
ReplyDeletePerhaps, she's letting these tidbits fall out to pave the way for the coming 'scandalous' VF piece??
How does this person even exist?
ReplyDeleteWell it IS HER relationship. When did it become a bad thing to try and stay in a marriage forever? Sometimes u have to deal with the tougher issues as best u can. IMO, she's compartmentalizing? the cheating issue, but that's how she's choosing to deal with it POSITIVELY. Beats the hell out of crying and threatening.
ReplyDeleteOh Goopy.
ReplyDeleteSo what? She isn't exactly alone or original with this sentiment. She's making it work - doesn't mean she has low self-esteem, perhaps she is better at intellectualizing infidelity than others.
ReplyDeleteI don't believe all men cheat, I do believe that the traditional version of marriage is different for everyone. I agree with Goop. Personally I think financial infidelity or lying, cheating is so much worse.
ReplyDeleteShe's not leaving all of Chris's money...
ReplyDeleteJelus, your attempt to seem open minded failed miserably by stereotyping every man out there. Good job!
ReplyDeleteWhen I jokingly ask my husband if he has a girlfriend, he replies, "There's no fucking way in hell that I could handle two women at once because you're all nuts."
ReplyDeleteNot for nothing, but I'd bet a million that Gwyneth gets action on the side. She comes off prim and proper, but I bet you she's wild. And, honestly, Chris Martin is not really a looker these days (See photo above.) Gwyneth at least rolls with a glam crowd.
I can't take any of this post as fact because it's all paraphrased from a previous article, and so much gets lost in translation in the CDAN summaries. (No offense, enties!) Linkies are your friends!
@Susan my fiance would say the same thing as your husband. lol! that was great.
ReplyDeletePip, I wasn't trying to be open minded. Have you ever read any of my other posts?
ReplyDeleteMen can only handle one girlfriend/significant other at a time, they cheat with hookers. That way they don't have to juggle anyone or worry about getting caught.
As for men, love = sex. That is ALL they want you for, sex and cooking/cleaning. Don't get me wrong, I love men. I always have a great time hanging out with them and I infinitely prefer them to women as friends, but they're different and all they care about is getting laid. If they know they have ZERO chance in hell of scoring with you they are a lot of fun, and you might learn some stuff when the masks are down/off. But if I wasn't married I would never, ever have sex again. Too gross knowing what they do behind your back.
Hater.......so men love their hookers? "To men, sex=love"
DeleteI think u mean IMMATURE MALES.
You're welcome.....
;^)
*high fives fancyscreenname* snap!
DeleteThis sounds like a huge rationalization from someone who gets cheated on a lot.
ReplyDeleteNo offense taken 888. This is a finely honed character I have crafted.
ReplyDeleteUnless you call jacking off to porn cheating, then I don't cheat. If I get sex often enough, then I rarely jack to porn. I much rather find new stuff to do with a broad I'm seeing than find a new one to do.
Plus, I don't dig on lying. If I was in a situation where I'm not getting enough luvin, I'd just tell her, "Look, its been 2 months since we had sex. I'm going to ______ next weekend, and I'm probably going to try to bang anything that moves. If you aren't cool with that, then something has to change or you should start making arrangements to move your stuff out."
Count just went up in my estimation.
DeleteMy hubby doesn't have the time, energy or semen reserves to cheat! He gets nude pics during the day, and jumped on or greeted naked when he gets home. Wake up in the morning? Morning sex. Comes home for lunch during our breaks? Sexy lunchtime romp.
+100000000000000000 to Susan's hubby.
ReplyDeleteremember when you came here and people didn't bitch:
ReplyDeletethis is a fake enty!
I call bs on this blind!
this place sucks!
we already read this!
I already knew that!
yeah, I can hardly remember that far back myself. tell you what. deduct the cost of how much you were ripped off from your bill.
goop is never leaving
ReplyDeleteChris bruh, your life is over
Oh Count, you are too much :) Thanks for the explanation, I think your realtalk is inspirational and really interesting. if what you say is true, you are OK in my book (I know you desperately need the 888 seal of approval!)
ReplyDeletefancyscreenname, I should've been more clear. Men "love" whoever they are having sex with. Whatever their feelings are, they aren't "love" as we understand it. I guess love for them is wanting to bang the same vagina over and over again and have it cook and clean for them. Who knows though lol.
@hater......its all good. I don't totally disagree with u. I think its just that we are using different words. U use LOVE and I would replace that with FOND OF. LOL. I DO understand where u are going with your po
DeleteCount, how often is enough? Like multiple times a day? That's how often my husband wants it and it's exhausting even utilizing all 3 holes (butt a lot less frequently because I don't want to poop in a diaper and it's gross anyways). I don't know how he would have the energy for whores but I imagine he finds it somewhere lol.
ReplyDeleteI think she's right. It's the moral majority going into a tizzy over cheating. It should be something a couple can agree on and then it's nobody else's business.
ReplyDeleteAhhhh...the words of a true woman in denial.
ReplyDelete@888: I'm pretty simple. 3-4 times a week would have been GREAT when I was in a relationship. I am also a proponent of a hotel room every month or 2 to have some kinky sport fucking. Don't wanna do that at home and wake up the kids.
ReplyDeletePoor thing is really reaching. She should hang out with Jada.
ReplyDeleteGwyneth was raised wealthy in NYC. I'm sure what sounds like a European attitude is the one she was socialized in on the Upper East Side of Manhattan.
ReplyDeleteThat said why not divorce him?
She could never divorce him because it would mean being wrong. Narcissist like her would probably rather eat McDonalds out of a homeless guy's shoes than admit to being wrong.
ReplyDeleteYou see, this is why I asked The Husband if he had a sidepiece because he hasn't tried to get any in a while. All of you are making me paranoid. Ha.
ReplyDeleteAt the end of the day, I have no worries in my marriage, but it has been 10 years. Christ, that's long. I implemented an Operation Lingerie this summer which went off amazingly. I think I need to update my stash....
I need to cut the cord and go on a vacay sans child with my husband. One of my neighbors whose child I teach just told me she's going to Aruba on Saturday for a week with her husband. God damn, I'm jealous. I gotta make something like that happen.
These bazillionaires who cheat make no sense to me. What's the point? Who needs that stress? Maybe they stay together for the kids. I don't know? Cheers. I'm having my wine. It's my weekend!!!
I don't think Gwyneth feels that sex is important in a marriage, but she does value the other aspects of a committed relationship. GP doesn't care if Chris has extramarital affairs (Natalie Imbruglia?), as long as he comes home, engages and supports her and the kids.
ReplyDeleteMost men, if given the opportunity, would likely cheat or think of cheating. In some marriages, it works out because there are women who don't want sex every night after about 20 years and 3 kids, so they're not too sorry about possible outsourcing. The rule is, dont ask, don't tell.
ReplyDeleteReally ladies? Are you standards that low? I don't tolerate cheating. I never have. People work with the parameters that are in place. That being said, I'll do what's comfortable for both of us to keep the spark alive. It works.
ReplyDeleteWe are just giving Gwyneth the space to b Gwyneth. Its her marriage not ours.
ReplyDeleteGod I can't believe how everyone thinks this is abt Chris cheating. Mark my words, she's cheated more than he has in their relationship. And no, not all men cheat.
ReplyDeleteDoes Paltrow do any charity work or even pretend to do any? Does she use any of her talents, money and connections to do any good in the world?
ReplyDeleteI like Count's posts. I'm always upn for honesty. Just be straight with the partner, "I need this x times a week, month, etc." Then take it from there. It's the lying that gets most people.
ReplyDeleteAfter having dated an asexual, I much rather be with a horny man. There are people out there who do not care for sex and should find each other.
This sounds like Goop. She never struck me as all that sexy and none of her exes give her references for that either. This also sounds like what Kate Hudson said before she announced she was divorcing her first husband.
Wasn't there rumors of Goopy screwing Jay Z not too long ago? Around the time she was posting pics on Twitter of her at his concert & her trying to talk all gangster.
