Goop doesn’t exactly have the best track record when it comes to recommending alternative ~* wellness *~ treatments. The company has endorsed experts who claim that GMOs cause depression, bee-sting treatments that killed one woman, and sticking jade eggs up your vagina. And after many, many, many people have called…
Professional inflammation-hater Gwyneth Paltrow appears to have married mop-headed TV guy Brad Falchuck in a secret ceremony that appears to have been produced by Falchuck’s creative partner Ryan Murphy??!
A 55-year-old woman in Spain died after receiving bee sting therapy, or apitherapy, according to an article in the Journal of Investigational Allergology and Clinical Immunology. It’s the first reported death for the therapy, which has been promoted by Gwyneth Paltrow and Goop.
Does the world really need another Ryan Murphy television show with the singing and the star power and the celebrities? If you ask me, the answer is no. If you ask Netflix, the answer is “YES, MY GOD ARE YOU KIDDING ME, OF COURSE WE DO, NOW BRING ME MY CONTRACT-SIGNING GLASSES AND THE LARGE BAG OF MONEY I PUT ON THE…
If you’ve written something so untoward that it causes Blythe Danner—arguably the best part of Gwyneth Paltrow—to write a scathing letter to the New York Times, then you should probably reexamine your life choices.
One of the most horrifying things about the recent exposés on alleged predator Harvey Weinstein is how much of an open secret it’s been for decades. People whispered about it, joked about it, and it seems they even conducted coded interviews about it on national television.
The debut issue of Goop’s magazine is dedicated, Editor-in-Chief Gwenyth Paltrow writes, to “wellness.” That’s no surprise, as Paltrow and her brand have built a small empire on “wellness,” a word that—in large part due to Paltrow’s influence and Goop’s success—has popped up in nearly every woman’s publication in the…
For the cover of Goop Magazine’s inaugural issue, founder Gwyneth Paltrow is covered in goop. Got it? Good. Now here are some thoughts on self care, banishing pesky cesarean scars with live bee stings, and more.
Spencer Pratt and Heidi Montag have not yet given birth to their kid, but that hasn’t stopped them from plotting out the fetus’s eventual career ahead of time. Because it’s common for parents to foist their own broken dreams onto their progeny, it makes sense that Baby Pratt is destined for a future as a content…
Tracy Anderson, celebrity trainer to the stars, is opening a gym in London, so that city’s Times profiled her and she had a few things to say about her famous clients. On training Gwyneth Paltrow, with whom she opened a gym in Manhattan earlier this year, Anderson had this to say:
Gwyneth Paltrow’s inaugural Health Summit—an event centered around the sellable idea of “wellness”—took place on Saturday at a warehouse in Culver City, California. It appears to have been an affair to remember. Personally, I would never spend $500 or $1,000 or $1,500 on a Goop Health Summit. But after reading about…
A Perfect Murder star Gwyneth Paltrow was on Jimmy Kimmel’s talk show Monday night, and the two spent a large chunk of time discussing Goop, her nearly 10-year-old company that Paltrow calls her “full-time job.” After beginning with a few compliments (“I like the cooking stuff, and I like to see you on vacation”),…
The first thing you’ll notice after directing your browser to Jennifer Garner’s Facebook page is that its cover photo is an image of her and several children—many of whom are definitely not hers—in a field of beets. Or at least I think they’re beets. They may be radishes. (I don’t know, the photo is blurry.)
It’s frustrating for me to read a story about Gwyneth Paltrow that ends with me rolling my eyes at Gwyneth Paltrow. Part of me would love to ignore everything she’s done that’s been related to Goop, so that I can remain the fan I was in the early 2000s. She was so great in The Talented Mr. Ripley! She showed off such…
Everyone wash up your jade eggs, take off your shoes, and down a handful of supplements, because this week’s episode of DirtCast is all about wellness!
The ugly legal battle between Johnny Depp and his former managers at The Management Group trudges onward, with the latter amending their complaint to emphasize Depp’s “clear and epic” sense of entitlement. He alone, they say, is responsible for his financial troubles.
Since Gwyneth Paltrow’s Goop launched in 2008, the site has earned its reputation as the internet’s kooky rich aunt. From detoxes to cleanses; vitamins to clean food; vaginal eggs to vaginal steaming and recurring features by a self-described “Medical Medium” (a man who diagnoses disease via spirit guidance), Goop has…
Former Gossip Girl star Leighton Meester isn’t here for the kinds of strange and frequently unsettling beauty trends promoted by brands like Gwyneth Paltrow’s Goop, and I feel like this is the first time in recent memory that a famous woman has made headlines for not being a proponent of a scientifically questionable…
In the February issue of InStyle, professional healthy person and View From the Top star Gwyneth Paltrow unequivocally put the frustrating assumption that white people have no culture to rest by offering the magazine her own version of “Um try again sweetie ;).”
You may have a friend who you’ve recently experienced as annoying. This friend suddenly couldn’t eat dairy products, and then, soon after, gluten; eventually, she began having trouble digesting onions, and raw vegetables, and alcohol, and starts saying things like “leaky gut” and “healing energy treatment.” She…
