Gwyneth Paltrow is an Oscar, Golden Globe, and Emmy Award–winning actor, a best-selling cookbook author, and the founder and CEO of the lifestyle brand Goop....

I went into this highly skeptical. I’ve probably at some point made a derogatory comment about Gwyneth Paltrow. Now I’m wondering if we should all be steaming our vaginas.

Edit: You guys are a hoot. Thanks to those who saw my point. If you didn’t, then that’s cool too. I’ll check back later.

Very Late Edit: Please see my mea culpa, here: https://slrpnk.net/post/8972825

    Interesting how the reaction is split so far. It occurs to me that lots of celebrities have sold sketchy shit, but female celebrities get grief over it. Did Matt Damon get cancelled over his crypto Superbowl ad? Food for thought, guys.

      Dr. Oz seems like a great example in line with her. They both made bogus claims about snake oil products that don’t provide the benefits claimed.

      Damon did an ad as a spokesperson. Crypto is inherently risky; it’s a currency based on nothing that people just made up. Unless I’m missing something, I don’t even know how they’re comparable.

        I’m sure that’s true. Can you see my point, though? How’d Gwyneth Paltrow get to be Super Hitler? 😆

            LMAO I wish. She’s laughing all the way to the bank.

            Yeah, I did watch the video. I sort of expected to hate her but I was surprised. She handled the wings of death pretty well and I found her funny, smart, and personable. Sean had his A game and he let her direct him in a facial at the end. Good stuff.

            Edit: Also, are you by any chance Leo Spaceman? 😉 Edit #2: Left out a word in my first edit.

      You’ve just tapped into the lemmyverse hatred hive mind. It’s easy to do. Other than a vagina candle I don’t know a whole lot about her. Hating someone for being a hustler and making $$$ is wild.

          These people are sheep and unfortunately there’s a lot of them. It’s fucking weird. There’s more logical points of views on the damn privacy invading platforms. Too many discussions on here are lead by pure emotion over some dumbass article someone read.
