  3. Right. Because most moms with desk jobs can afford fulltime nannies. :p

  6. Try paying for daycare while working an office job. Not having nannies written into your contracts etc. She is a fool.

  7. Eek. She doesn't help herself does she? (With her millions in the bank and her many nannies and household staff I assume).
    It's not even really worth discussing is it?

  16. I think she needs to get an impartial adviser to read and edit all her comments before these are published to prevent looking like a complete twat [UK term of endearment)

    ReplyDelete
  17. Long time lurker, very infrequent commenter. Just have to say,

    Can someone please explain to me the appeal of Goop? I find her to be a fairly talented actress and marginal singer who is neither beautiful nor striking in any way. While she has a lovely smile, I see someone with stringy over bleached hair, a somewhat horsey face and a voice that may get a short solo in the church choir but that is it. She has a nice athletic figure, but is not at all sexy or voluptuous. And the only thing fruitier than her kid's name is anyone thinking she has anything relevant to say about life or lifestyle. What am I missing?

  18. She really needs to reincorporate fat back into her diet - it's necessary for basic brain function. Then she might have the wherewithal to keep her fucking mouth shut about things she knows nothing about.

    ReplyDelete
  19. She also was making fun of women who can not afford high-end designer purses. I believe she basically called them trashy and stupid.

    ReplyDelete
  20. Mistymoo -- you know how the radio plays a song over and over again until you sing along with it, even though you hate it? Goop the twunt is like that. She just keeps on showing up in the press with her elevated notions of self-importance and people eventually get used to her and she stays "popular".

  27. Not justifying the comment, but maybe she means it's because our children are not in the spotlight, but the children of famous people are? She has a habit of not thinking before speaking, but my theory sounds logical to me. In that sense, she is right because we aren't under a microscope. People like Gwyneth put themselves under the microscope, have kids and then complain about their choices

  39. This kind of zero-basis, pointed condescension deserves no attention. An ill-informed, inappropriately self-superior twat is still just a twat after all.
    This twat gets no more of my energy than would a McDonald's drive through twat.
    Fortunately, no energy is required for me to type "whose bed did your husband prefer, Gwynnie? Oh, ANYone's you say? Let's examine that".

  49. She can bite my shiny metal ass.

    She should try getting a desk job, making a hair above minimum wage and living on it, and care for her own children to boot (daycare instead of nannies). Only THEN can she fucking talk.

    ReplyDelete
  50. Film actress it's probably true. It's why so many actresses try TV while their children are small. So they can get home every night to be with their kids. I read a long interview with Judi Dench who said she started doing nothing but stage work while her daughter was growing up so she would be home at consistent times & be there every day. She only returned to film after her daughter left home.

  51. Says the princess raised by an actress mother. Just.Stop.Talking.

  52. It's probably hard in a different way? *ducks*

    ReplyDelete
  53. Not that the full quote is much better, but she said this in context of talking about having to leave your kids to go shoot on location for extended periods of time or filming 14 hrs/day so you don't get to see them much anyway. Someone working a 9 to 5 wouldn't have to deal with the separation and distance, they would have their routine and "quality time" or whatever.

    Of course, 9 to 5 people do that year-round versus in lumps with nothing but free time in between. Plus, they're only earning a fraction of Paltrow's salary.

    So, from the "seeing your kids" angle, I understand what she is trying to say. But she obviously has no clue what a someone in the daily grind deals with and juggles.

    ReplyDelete
  54. Oh, puhhhh-lease give me your millions and let me see how I struggle through your daily life.......What's that saying? "God will never give you more than you can handle."

    Yep. Lemme have a crack at your life, Gwyneth. I'll letcha

    ReplyDelete
  55. Chick is delusional. Maybe a successful actress might have long-term filming somewhere on occasion, and it's sad for the mother not seeing her kids and having delegate to nannies for a while, but no, no way it's harder.

    ReplyDelete
  56. @NomNom, I agree with you. I am going to give her a pass on this.

    ReplyDelete
  57. That makes perfect sense. I mean an actress mom works maybe a couple of months a year while a mom at a desk job is working every day. Someone like our Gwyneth has nannies and bodyguards and drivers cooks and personal assistants. A working mom has daycare if she's lucky. After all it is SO much harder when you have to sneak around and cheat on your husband and make an a$$ out of yourself every day than working for a living and trying to scrape by. Poor Gwyneth. We all need to be a little more understanding.

    ReplyDelete
  58. Her digestive system doesn't work like the rest of ours. She poops out of her mouth.

    ReplyDelete
  59. I'm not agreeing with her. I'd just like to add that *most* actors and actresses do not earn enough (without an outside job like, say a part-time desk job or wait staff position) to live on.

    What she meant was that it's harder to be a well-paid, well-known actress/mother than a nobody desk-job-having/mother. *long pause* And that's just malarkey.

    ReplyDelete
  60. @bored soccer mom....Twunt is my favourite word lately and exactly the discriptive insult I was going to use against that wankstain of a woman.

    Goop needs to eat a fucking brownie with calories and a decent fat content and then find the directions that can lead her out of her own perfectly bleached arsehole.....

    ReplyDelete
  61. Somebody should remind Gwyneth of how her godfather, Steven Spielberg, was raised by a mother who worked a desk job. All while never complaining how hard it was and last I checked, they all turned out just fine.

    ReplyDelete
  62. Dumb b*tch! I would like to slap her for all working women. I am fortunate enough that my husband lets me be a stay at home, but I see all my working friends and it is tough as hell to juggle all the roles they have and not have the money to have the chef, the nanny, personal secretary, publicist, stylist, trainer, hired fuck-assistant to take their(women's) place with their husbands, because they are so tired from the daily routine and challenges they(women) don't even want to think about sex.
    Dumb b*tch!

  64. Whoever above mentioned wanting to see a film of GOopie taking a sh*t, go over to YouTube and watch her painful Glee performance. I'd rather see someone doing something natural, even uncomfortable than that cringe-inducing vomitus attempt at sexy. That chick cluck jabarwacky moving around is from the Katie Holmes school of dance, and the cat screech vocals aren't far from the same mortifying mess of self-indulgence, narcissism and over-inflated ego dissociation from reality.

    Let's swap? You spent your days doing the school runs,working,leaving work and pissing off your bosses because you have a 5 year old with non verbal autism that has to go to 3 different therapy programs every week and then spend the rest of the time fighting to get her into a decent school which is the whole reason you're even back at work in the first place,so you can afford all the stuff she needs while you miss out on seeing your baby sons toddler years.

  70. "@Mistymoo I think she owes a lot of her career success to blowing Harvey Weinstein.

    Really?! Goop and Mira are Hollywood royalty because of their parents, are they not?

    Speaking of which, I wonder what Blythe thinks when she hears the stuff that Goop says. Does she support her? Roll her eyes? Barely notice?

    (Also? If she's eating as many veggies as she claims to, she ain't havin' any problems shitting. Trust me.)

    I just can't hate her for some reason; I read GOOP, actually. I think she meant that it's hard because of travel and long hours and publicity, and I'm not certain that she meant it to be as douchey as it sounds.

    If this quote is taken out of context ( which likely is the case ) then Goop gets a pass from me. I still sort of like her. She's the perfect Pepper Potts .. And that fucking movie Sliding Doors was my savior when I was going through my divorce - I think Gwenny will always hold a place in my heart because of it.. Although that's more my personal experience rather than her acting prowess ..
    If she did actually say this in comparison to working moms - she's making it difficult for me to keep holding her in esteem.

  75. AKM..I met Paul Sorvino and he is an upstanding guy. Mira doesn't say shit like this nor does she tout this wonderful life. Not bitching at you just adding context.

    The first thing I thought when I read this was "Fuck YOU!"

    For the mom above (and others who haven't said anything) with a child with special needs my heart goes out to you. I have friends with a child who has autism and what they go through to get him adequate education is bloody nothing short of amazing.

    And for all you moms here I applaud you. I don't have chirrens and never wanted them. It's a very difficult job. I saw my mother raise us 3 without any $ support in the 70's. We never saw her because she worked 3 jobs just to put food on the table.

    This delusional beyotch has no idea. I would love to see her in a "Trading Places" situation. Wouldn't that be precious?

    ReplyDelete
  76. She should stick to commenting on what she knows, like fucking her way through the Weinsteins to get an Oscar.....SO much harder than winning one on actual acting talent!

    ReplyDelete
  77. And here we go! I am going to blame her extreme hunger and complete ignorance of anything that is considered normal living for her saying this. So is she willing to give up her opulent lifestyle and try out a few months as a desk job single mom? I bet she'd pass on that.

    ReplyDelete
  78. The day she works a regular desk job, unappreciated and unrecognized will be the day she can make this comment. Even understanding her context, makes it 0.0001% better. Her kids are still well cared for while she's away and she's compensated in the millions for her anguish.

    This page especially has made me truly enjoy watching her character's misfortune onscreen:

    *no Iron Man, don't save her*

    Seven and Contagion have a different kind of impact, too, it seems.

  79. Goopster's life is so hard, she apparently just announced that she's taking a break from acting now. Is she fucking Chris Evans already?

  86. @Sherry - I love Mira and Paul Sorvino. I wasn't talking smack about Mira; I was saying "how can she be a "Harvey girl" (i.e. blowing Harvey Weinstein) when she's got that pedigree?" She wouldn't have to do that with Paul as her dad.

    (I was quoting what mooshki said originally. Reread mooshki's comment and then mine.)

    ReplyDelete
  87. To recap:

    mooshki said, "@Mistymoo I think she owes a lot of her career success to blowing Harvey Weinstein. Some other Harvey Girls: Mira Sorvino, Gretchen Mol, Jessica Alba, Sienna Miller, Uma Thurman"

    And *I* said, "Really?! Goop and Mira are Hollywood royalty because of their parents, are they not?" Meaning "why would they have to blow anybody?!"
