Gwyenth Paltrow is about as detached from reality as you would expect a bajillionaire who thinks death is preferable to feeding her kids Cup-a-Soup and calls a $450 hand towel a “must have” for spring. In no way does she understand anything about how the 99% live in any way – but you can’t tell her that. No, Gwyneth thinks she’s “incredibly close to the “common woman”. The fact that she can use the phrase “common woman” tells you how untrue that actually is.
Hitting up CNNMoney on Monday, Gwyneth had the following to say about Goop and her approach to giving lifestyle advice:
“What we try to do at Goop is curate and to edit. We know that a woman’s time is her most precious resource and we want to multitask, get a lot done, and what we want to do is provide the best solutions,” she explained.
“I’m incredibly close to the common woman in that I’m a woman and I’m a mother and we all are in a physical body with beating hearts with compassion and love we are all seekers…we all want fulfillment, we all want to live our best lives. We want to be healthy and happy and squeeze the most we can out of life. I think that’s all women.”
I mean, look – she sounds… okay, I guess. I think she believes that she means well, which is both sad and obnoxious, because the amount of utter shite that comes out of her mouth is beyond belief. But then you think, she THINKS she’s being sincere. Doesn’t that kinda count for something? (No, no it doesn’t.)
She grew up with a sterling silver spoon in her mouth, never had to struggle one day in her life, but she can relate to a common woman? Sorta the way Queen Elizabeth relates to a woman living in a flat in London with no husband and 3 kids and 2 jobs?
What she describes is not an intimate reflection on the “commonfolk woman” but such a general statement about basic human nature. All people are living breathing and want the best for their family. Duh. This twit has her head so far up her ass that she probably insists on writing her own statements a leads all PR operations thinking she got it all down but she sucks
yeah, try to squeeze the most out of life while working three minimum wage jobs, dumbass
“Let them eat cake…”, much?
