Gwyneth is still kind of pleasantly crazy. Well… is that the right way to describe her? I actually think Gwyneth’s life philosophy could be really destructive and it could end up hurting a lot of people, only no one takes her seriously, right? Even Goop’s defenders just roll their eyes at her Goopiness. Anyway, Gwyneth wouldn’t shut up when she was at the opening of Tracy Anderson’s studio/gym on Thursday, so we now have SO MUCH GOOP. So much humble-bragging, so many bread crumbs of Goop thrown to the peasants. Some highlights from Goop’s assorted interviews:
Stripper’s butt: Paltrow recalled one incident in particular, when she was trying on bathing suits with a pal and received a rather unusual compliment about her figure. “I said, ‘You know, this isn’t so bad for 40, right?'” Paltrow mused of her butt. “And [my friend] goes, ‘It’s not so bad for a 22-year-old stripper!'”
Goop loves talking about her butt: “Oh, I knew it would never change!” she told reporters. “I had exercised before I had met her … I had done Ashtanga yoga and pilates and I [ran] and I thought I was fit, you know?”
She does Tracy’s workouts every day: “I just sob and then kick and scream and then I just force myself to do it. I just got obsessed. When you see results like that, I started following everything she said and she completely transformed my body and I’m so grateful.”
She deigned to defend Kim Kardashian (who was also at the opening): “I think that women should support each other, especially through pregnancy. It’s a difficult time and I think Kim Kardashian looks absolutely beautiful. And we’re supposed to gain weight when pregnant — that’s how God intended it.”

Goop would never deign to fish for compliments like a peasant. She would never compliment herself either. Instead, she will just tell you about some mysterious “friend” (probably Beyonce) who told her she had the butt of a 22-year-old stripper. Wait, what if Chris Martin told her that? Wouldn’t the follow-up question be, “How do you know what a 22-year-old stripper’s butt looks like?” But sure, I’ll buy that Goop has the ass of a 22-year-old stripper. Too bad she has the vitamin deficiency of a 88-year-old with osteoarthritis.
Anyway… as for her defense of Kim Kardashian, is anyone else SHOCKED? I’m shocked. But I guess I shouldn’t be. Kim is a client of Tracy, Tracy is in business with Gwyneth and Gwyneth sees it as her duty to make nice with clients. I guess.
Oh, and Gwyneth works out every day? On top of smoking, drinking and starving herself? Jaysus. No wonder she thought she was dying when she had a headache.
