Let me just put this issue to rest. Regardless of whose DNA the kids carry, Michael Jackson is the father of his children, as he was the only one actually involved in their parenting. Your "real parents" are the ones who "really parent" you. DNA is just a molecule.

Gwyneth Paltrow: so, basically, you're starving yourself as punishment for enjoying life. I mean, yeah, that WAS pretty ridiculous of you. Your life's enjoyment should come out of staying skinny not romping about and having fun and eating delicious food without killing yourself on a treadmill.

As my boss says "You could get hit by a truck tomorrow and your jean size won't matter."

@LaComtesse: I love how our fair Gwynie so transparently uses GOOP to shame the rest of us plebs into punishing--whoops--I mean, DETOXing ourselves for "enjoying life".

Bleh, I hate how "detox" has replaced "diet" as the code word for starving yourself.

When celebrities say that their Twitter was hacked, what they mean is that their drunken alter egos hacked into them, which was very surprising to all parties, as the drunken alter ego is usually very bad with technology and remembering passwords and all that.

Gwyneth Paltrow's infatuation with detox, especially as a way to recover from "relax and enjoy life phase[s]", is beginning to sound like a form of disordered eating to me.

It bothers me how she'll be like, "Oh, I love food, delicious yummy food, I can't stuff enough wonderful food in my face, I love it so!" and then a little later is telling us how she went on a detox and drank only juice and castor oil and white tea for a fortnight, or some such nonsense, as a way to cleanse and purify and whatever else.

That isn't detox, that's crash dieting, and I can't bring myself to believe that it's healthy.

@titilayo-yo-yo-yo: Thank you for stating exactly what I was thinking. I dislike detox diets for that same reason, mostly because I think people go on them when they need to justify a period of crash dieting after a period of indulgence. Your body needs food. There is no need to detox, there's only need to eat fresh and healthy meals.

@titilayo-yo-yo-yo: Okay, seriously, I was thinking about commenting with that and I scrolled down and saw you've pretty much said exactly what I was thinking. I'm glad I'm not the only one who noticed that.

I try really hard to avoid clicking on "goop" articles because I find her detox talk triggering, but it's hard not to notice when it's in a quick little dirtbag snippit. I don't mean this as a critique on the editors, (it's my job to avoid it, not their job to stop writing it) but does anyone else find her uncomfortably triggering?

@Bunsen Honeydew: She doesn't trigger me personally, but I can certainly see how her writing would trigger some people. I, too, agree that her views on 'detox' and the like seem to be a thinly veiled explanation of an eating disorder. Especially since she specifically mentioned weight loss. If she was only worried about keeping her body clean, etc she wouldn't have mentioned losing a few pounds, right?

@titilayo-yo-yo-yo: The "justification" from the doctor is atrocious. He states that your body stores up pounds of toxins, and then when asked where he goes on a long winded explanation of the whole earth being polluted in toxins.

I am always intrigued by the detox idea, if there is pounds of stored up 'sludge' or whatever I want it out. I went on a detox similar to the product he is hocking (for something like $350!!) which is a bunch of supplements. I can tell you that I didn't see anything out of the ordinary, except for the fact that it just made me eliminate as if I was taking laxatives. Which is really what it was after I dug deep into what it was, natural ingredients but I was basically taking laxatives, which grossed me out and I stopped taking before it was over.

Odd, I really don't think of Jim Carrey as being old enough to have a daughter who's having a baby, but there you go. I have grown increasingly fail at attempting to guess the ages of people around me, much less celebrities, so I'm not surprised.

Oh poor poor Hayden who is beautiful and grew up with a celebrity actress mother and became a hollywood actress before she was even in middle school. POOR YOU.

Celebrities spilling about how bullied they were as teenagers is about as convincing as their "I eat burritos! I'm normal!" talk. Neither tacics convincingly humanize them and it just makes them seem like liars.

Hayden Panettiere says she was bullied in high school: "I was tortured, emotionally tortured by these girls. Every time I came back from filming, it would be me trying to find my way back into the clique. And they weren't having it."

This is the usual thing, when we did "mad libs" interviews we forgot this one!

@Samanthrax:This akin to the supermodel who claims that: a. she wasn't pretty growing up; and b. her friends/ grandma entered her in a beauty / modeling contest.

It would be great to hear a model say: "You know, I looked in the mirror at 14 and said to myself, 'Damn, I'm pretty f'ing hot. Let's see where this takes us.'"
