Earlier this month Washington Post Style writer Monica Hesse examined the complicated relationship Paltrow has with fans (and non fans) while taste testing the health conscious recipes in Paltrow s cookbook It s All Good Delicious Easy Recipes That Will Make You Look Good and Feel Great.
Here s how Hesse described Paltrow s unique brand of celebrity
There are other celebrities in America who are more clueless more doe dazed than Gwyneth. But they don t lay themselves bare the way she does nakedly offering herself up for scrutiny again and again a flayed fillet of fame. In 2008 she was just an actress a good one the Oscar winner in the Pepto ball gown who seemed coltish but kind. Then she launched Goop billed as a way to help readers save time simplify their lives feel inspired and generally share all of life s positives.
Commenters on Hesse s article also had a lot to say about Paltrow and her dietary restrictions. Here are some takes from our readers
simon2 It's true I could un subscribe from GOOP but there is a strange fascination in seeing how ghastly Gwyneth can get.... her idea of what a normal person would spend for a throw is so way off. To her $1000 is 10 cents. I wonder how she could get a realistic idea of what ordinary people are do spend and eat
awoaca No Gwyneth no book. My life has enough irony.
From Commenter danaman
Ha ha LOL what a hoot of an article Spewed my organic fair trade lovingly gathered chamomile tips tea gently infused on a sunny windowsill in a lead free crystal cup all over my dust free sanitized with (organic of course) first crush apple cider vinegar keyboard. Now I have to get up and joyfully repeat the tea making and keyboard purifying whilst inhaling cleansing deep breaths through alternating nostrils. By tomorrow's glorious multi hued cloud studded sunset I should be ready to read today's news focusing on the now and present.

I'm confused I thought we just loved to love her. I'm always the last to know that we're over something/someone.
