Gwyneth...

[nancyk58]

I think Gweneth is one savvy gal - she eats local foods when she travels - that's the way to go! Less energy in transportation, much more good tasting, and you get to enjoy something special from the places you go!!
Off to crack some acorns, and boil them in her honor.:escaping2::escaping3:

Sounds all good to me. :thumbsup:

And btw it is GWYNETH THREAD, PAGE 500!

How would she celebrate that?

Maybe a NEW HAT. Should it be this one: :hat2: or :joker: or :hat: ?

The lady loves cooking (and is good at it). She loves to eat too, so :chef: = A GOOD DINNER

maybe followed by some GOOD, ACOUSTIC MUSIC delivered by Chris: :guitarist:

Then: :heart: :love: between Gwyn and Chris leading to : :kid: KID :heart:

Second, it's just sad, that so many women in this thread feel inferior than Gwyneth and bad about themselves when they look at her pictures. WTF? I can't believe that, when I look at your avatars (the few not with Chris in it :wink: ). What I see are pretty girls...and with wise styling gurus and a regular fresh diet, you could look as good as, maybe even better than her with make-up! So don't idolize her just because Chris chose her to be his wife!

.

Totally agree with you on this point. I said that if I saw her at the gym looking this way i'd think she was beautiful, but I think lots of the ladies who go to my gym are beautiful! ( i mean that in a very straight way, i dont oogle them or anything) And with make-up and professional hair styling we'd all be looking red carpet ready! Don't forget also we have no idea how much is natural... we dont know if her skin is perfect naturally or if she goes for some expensive procedures or what not. Not that it matters! just saying, no one should feel like "god, I wish I had her x, y, or z" and I bet there's stuff she doesnt like about herself too. So um...women unite...no more putting our looks down.

Also, I really wish I could get some good professional hair styling. I am completely clueless when it comes to doing my own hair, and I am NEVER happy with a haircut for more than 2 hours.

[LostAtSea]

i agree-(with both of ur comments)^

[branshi_baby]

I don't know if this has been posted before.

found it curious, though I don't like Perez Hilton AT ALL. Ughh, that man needs to dissapear!

Here's the article.

Madonna's Trainer Gets A Swift Kick To The Curb

Ouch! Well, at least she'll have Gwyneth Paltrow and their gym to fall back on.

Last week on Ryan Seacrest's morning show, Madonna slyly admitted that she no longer was working with celebrity trainer Tracy Anderson. When Ryan asked her about Tracy being "dropped", Madonna simply laughed. That sounds like a yes to us.

If the Queen of Pop's aversion to answer the question out-right isn't enough evidence, several other sources are confirming the same news, suggesting that:

"Madonna had grown tired of the baggage that Tracy always seemed to be carrying with her. Tracy had grown to be more of a distraction than anything else."

Some of that baggage may includes refusing to go on tour with Madonna until the final leg so she could be closer to her boyfriend, Philippe van den Bossche, the former head of Madonna's Raising Malawi charity. But a rep for Anderson claims it was an amicable split:

"This is not true. After working together for three years, Tracy and Madonna mutually parted ways because Tracy wanted to look after her son."

What does that have to do with anything? That is what daycare or school is for!

Whatever, her loss. Having Madonna as her #1 client must have brought in a lot of money. Oh well!

Nice, thanks :D

she's always lovely

[mksh24]

wow no makeup and still looks great. She is brave for doing that.

[jelynch2]

Did you catch the Gwyneth shout-out on Glee tonight? Two characters were talking about naming their baby and the one said something like, "I was thinking about how Gwyneth Paltrow named her kid Apple and I thought that was really cool, so I thought of Drizzle." :D The mention of a Coldplay relative on TV! hahah made me smile. :)

When I was fifteen I lived in a little Spanish city called Talavera de la Reina with the Lazaros, my exchange family. My Spanish mama Julia is an incredible cook and introduced me to the cuisine of the Iberian peninsula - which is always best home-cooked. In the evenings, the typical Spanish dinner is lighter than the meat and rice dishes often found at lunchtime. This menu is what you would find at my family's house on a weeknight. Spanish tortilla cut into small pieces, some manchego, a glass of wine, gambas and pan con tomate. Perfect.

Tortilla Española

This tortilla is distinguished by its density because it’s got a high potato-to-egg ratio. Flip it often for an even texture. This is best at room temperature, so definitely make it ahead.

http://goop.com/newsletter/52/tortilla.jpg
SERVES: 4
TIME: 30 minutes


1 1/2 cups vegetable oil
3 large waxy potatoes (about 1 3/4 pounds total), peeled and diced into 1/3" cubes
Couple teaspoons of coarse salt
1 small yellow onion, peeled and cut into 1/8"-thick half moons
3 eggs
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

Heat the vegetable oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add all of the potatoes – the oil should come to the top of the potatoes (add a bit more if it doesn’t). Once everything starts to sizzle, turn the heat down to medium and sprinkle it with a teaspoon of salt. Cook the potatoes for ten minutes, stirring constantly. The potatoes shouldn’t be browning, just getting cooked through. Add the onions and cook for ten more minutes. It’s okay if the vegetables turn a little golden at this point. Remove the potatoes and onions with a slotted spoon to a paper towel-lined plate and let them sit for five minutes.
Whisk the eggs together in a large bowl with 1/2 teaspoon of salt. Add the potatoes and onions and gently fold everything together. Heat the olive oil in a small (about 7" diameter) nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the egg mixture and cook for 1 1/2 minutes or until the bottom is just set. Using a plate, invert the tortilla and return it to the pan. Continue to flip it using a plate every 30 seconds for a total of six minutes (a dozen flips). At the end, the whole thing will be set and browned and lovely. Let cool to room temperature before serving.

Gambas al Ajillo

This recipe is adapted from my “Spanish Mama,” Julia Ruiz Blanco. Basically, this method calls for “poaching” shrimp in olive oil made fragrant with garlic and a bit of chili, and then just barely browning them.

http://goop.com/newsletter/52/gambas.jpg
SERVES: 4
TIME: 10 minutes


1/2 cup good Spanish olive oil
2 1/2 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
Pinch of your favorite red chili flakes
1 pound medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
Pinch of sea salt

Heat the olive oil with the garlic and chili in a large, heavy skillet over medium-low heat. When the aromatics just start to bubble, add the shrimp and sprinkle each piece with a little bit of salt. Cook for a minute and then turn each one. They should not be browning, just turning opaque. Cook for another minute on the second side. Remove the shrimp from the pan and discard all but two tablespoons of the oil. Turn the heat up to high and return the shrimp to the pan. Cook for about 20 to 30 seconds on each side, until just browned. Serve warm.

Marta's Pan con Tomate

This approach is genius. Instead of rubbing the tomato on the bread, as per tradition, you simply make a raw sauce by grating the tomato. It’s a lot easier and a lot less wasteful.

http://goop.com/newsletter/52/panConTomate.jpg
SERVES: 4
TIME: 10 minutes


1 baguette
2 vine-ripened tomatoes
1 large clove garlic, pushed through a press
3 tablespoons good Spanish olive oil, plus more for serving
coarse salt
freshly ground black pepper

Cut the baguette in half lengthwise and then cut each half into four pieces. Grill the bread over medium-high heat or brown in your toaster.
Meanwhile, cut each tomato in half and grate on the coarse side of a box grater into a bowl. Grate until all the seeds, juice and pulp are pressed through (discard the skins). Add the garlic and olive oil and season to taste with salt and pepper. You can add more garlic if you like. Mix the sauce together and spoon it over the grilled bread, sprinkling each piece with just a bit more coarse salt and drizzling with extra oil.

Notes

Good Spanish cheeses:


Manchego
Idiazábal
Cabrales (blue)
Mahon
Torta del Casar (my super stinky fave)

Good Spanish olives:


Malagueña (little ones)
Manzanilla (green ones)
Arbequina (buttery ones)

Good Spanish anchovies:


Ortiz brand “anchoas en aceite de oliva” (anchovies packed in olive oil)
El Corte Inglés (department store) store brand, “anchovy loins from the Bay of Biscay” packed in olive oil
boquerones (white anchovy filets packed in vinegar)

LA Update

I spent most of last spring and summer in Los Angeles doing lots of work and eating some incredible food...from the new phenomenon of the gourmet taco truck, to the tucked away neighborhood spots to the latest Suzanne Goin...the LA food is quietly and unpretentiously on fuego.

Chow down.
http://goop.com/newsletter/common/gp_sig_go.png

Places to Eat:

Church and State
1850 Industrial St
Los Angeles, CA 90021
(213) 405-1434
www.churchandstatebistro.com

http://goop.com/newsletter/53/church_and_state.jpg

If you conjure a place somewhere between a classic Parisian brasserie and the Williamsburg Brooklyn of 10 years ago, you could very easily dream up this fantastic room in its eerily quiet industrial surrounds. The bartender here realizes with flair the new novelty of customized cocktails: you choose the spirit, they do the rest. I was given a concoction of vodka, cucumber, sage leaves and other surprises – it was the best drink I’ve ever had. From there I had oysters, Tarte Alsaciennes with fresh peaches, brie and arugula (these tarts change seasonally) and finished off with a roast chicken. I even succumbed to french fries in lard...the whole experience was worth a trip from the Westside.

Gjelina
1429 Abbot Kinney Blvd
Venice, CA 90291
(310) 450-1429
www.gjelina.com

http://goop.com/newsletter/53/gjelina.jpg

Among the super cool shops of Abbot Kinney in Venice lie two culinary gems: Gjelina is a great local spot – I love the kumamoto oysters, beautiful, bountiful veggie sides and the homemade, thin crust pizza (the jalapeño and smoked mozzarella is my fave). The simple, well-prepared California food and wine and reasonable pricing make it incredibly busy — book in advance.

Shima
1432 Abbot Kinney Blvd
Los Angeles, CA 90291
(310) 314-0882

Across the street (and the spectrum) from Gjelina is Shima, a small, beautifully spare space, serving up the highest quality Japanese food imaginable – with a healthy bent. Alongside the sake menu is the fresh-pressed organic carrot juice option and the melt in your mouth sushi served on brown rice (not that you would ever know it). The lotus dish was among my favorites. Pricey but worth it.

Madeo
8897 Beverly Blvd
Los Angeles, CA 90048
(310) 859-0242

I held my breath when I took my hardest to impress friend to Madeo – a classic Northern Italian restaurant with the best linguini al pesto outside of Liguria. The room is below ground level (not my fave) but it’s warm and clubby in an old school way. Burrata, Branzino, Gorgonzola pizza – if its good enough for the Last Emperor...

Cecconi’s
8764 Melrose Avenue
West Hollywood, CA 90069
(310) 432-2000
www.cecconiswesthollywood.com

http://goop.com/newsletter/53/cecconis.jpg

Instantly bustling and social, Cecconi’s opened the West Hollywood outpost of its London namesake last February and it quickly became a hotspot. The Italian-by-way-of-Cali food is housed on a very centrally located corner and open all day making it a perfect spot to meet up for breakfast, lunch, dinner or cicchetti (Italian tapas). The martinis don’t suck either...

Tavern
11648 San Vicente Blvd.
Los Angeles, CA 90049
310-806-6464
www.tavernla.com

http://goop.com/newsletter/53/tavern.jpg

Housed in an old Hamburger Hamlet where I downed many a burger as a kid is Tavern, Suzanne Goin’s new café and restaurant. You gotta love it when the Westside scores with a chef of Goin’s calibre. The front houses a casual larder serving take away food, gourmet cheeses and picnic boxes. The dining room is in the back – try the ‘Devil’s Chicken,’ it’s delish.

Animal
435 N. Fairfax Ave
Los Angeles, CA 90036
(323) 782-9225
www.animalrestaurant.com

http://goop.com/newsletter/53/animal.jpg

Run by Jon Shook and Vinny Dotolo, recently named ‘Best New Chefs’ by Food & Wine, Animal is dedicated to well-prepared, seasonal food. A cool, minimalist, unpretentious space combines with smart, bold dishes like addictive crispy fried hominy with lime, sticky ribs glazed with balsamic vinegar and an ingenious bacon-chocolate bar. It’s a must-go for all of my meat-loving friends...

Osteria La Buca
5210 Melrose Avenue
Hollywood, CA 90038
323.462.1900
www.osterialabuca.com

http://goop.com/newsletter/53/osteria_la_buca.jpg

Reliably wonderful, authentic Italian food without airs or pretense. The pastas, all made in house by Mamma (literally), are particularly exceptional, especially the bucatini and the gnocchi. Great service, a big wine list, even better prices – a real gem.

Yong Su San
950 S Vermont Ave
Los Angeles, CA 90006
(213) 388-3042
www.yongsusan.com

You have to be a kimchi-loving foodie to know about, and go to, this off the beaten track Korean in, well, Koreatown. For highest novelty quotient, get a private room, where you’ll be presented with different fixed menus to choose from. Everything comes at once, covering your table with tons of small plates and bowls with tasty, interesting preparations – spicy salads, delicate noodles, stewed and barbequed meats and more.

Stands & Trucks:

The Best Fish Taco in Enseneda
1650 Hillhurst Ave
Los Angeles, CA 90027
www.bestfishtacoinensenada.com

My friend James swears by these fish tacos at a small stand in Silverlake. He says they are the best fish tacos outside of Baja.

La Estrella Taco Truck
Highland View Ave. & Colorado Blvd.
Los Angeles, CA 90041

A little off the map in Highland Park (it’s east of East LA), La Estrella offers some of the best al pastor tacos. Worth a little drive after a trip to the Griffith Park or a Dodgers’ game.

Kogi Truck
kogibbq.com

http://goop.com/newsletter/53/kogi_truck.jpg

There’s been a lot of hype about these Korean tacos trucks that wander all around LA and that people find through an almost obsessive devotion to Kogi’s Twitter updates. Behind the buzz is outrageously good food. The tacos feature Korean-style barbequed meats or tofu on great corn tortillas, all topped with some sort-of cilantro, chili, sesame magic. The sliders and kimchi quesadillas are also killer.

Places to Drink:

The Varnish
118 East Sixth St.
Downtown Los Angeles, CA 90014
213.622.9999

http://goop.com/newsletter/53/the_varnish.jpg

A very cool ‘speakeasy’ located in the back room of Cole’s French Dip (LA’s oldest restaurant, birthplace of the French Dip sandwich and an undisputed institution). Established by the guys behind New York’s famed Milk and Honey bar, the relaxed atmosphere gives way to very serious, thoughtfully prepared cocktails.

I can't believe she's advertising a truck that sells tacos al pastor :awesome:

[monicka]

I live in LA and I personally love this week's GOOP. Madeo is definitely good- plus you'll always run into a celeb there.

BUT I love that KogiBBQ truck. it's amazing. there are several of them all throughout LA and Orange County. And the best part? They tweet their locations and estimated arrival times. It's the same truck she brought for the crew on the Iron Man 2 set.

[yuls]

i receive GOOP both in english and spanish. I am not a native spanish speaker but I know it pretty good, and I have the impression Gwyneth writes the entries herself. She uses very spanish expressions and sometimes she has some little mistakes...it seems strange to me she has time to write her newsletter, but the way it's written makes me believe so...

[marie/pims]

i receive GOOP both in english and spanish. I am not a native spanish speaker but I know it pretty good, and I have the impression Gwyneth writes the entries herself. She uses very spanish expressions and sometimes she has some little mistakes...it seems strange to me she has time to write her newsletter, but the way it's written makes me believe so...

I think it's really great if she writes these herself.She's so busy it's crazy.Two kids, demanding job and a husband who acts like kid most of the time ;)

I know what show you mean but I don't watch it enough to know who Katie is. Maybe I should start so I can see someone who reminds me of Gwyneth, and in turn reminds me of Coldplay, every week! :)

IF YOU ARE READING THIS, GWYNETH, JUST KNOW THAT CHRIS IS MINE. And someday...ohhh someday...I will find him and steal him away!!!! Sweep him off his feet with my broom of luurrrvvveee.

[starsinheavenalign]

Sorry, I've never heard of it... Is it like America's Next Top Model?

It's like a spin off of Project Runway,But instead of fashion designers,Models compete.
It's on the Lifetime channel.
If you get that channel you should watch it,it's really good!
I think It's a bit better than America's Next Top Model,
But that's just my opinion.:)

New cooking Goop, and it's even halloween themed :vampire: :awesome:

Treat Street

Not so long ago, in October 2006 to be exact, Mary, Clare, and Crystal wanted to bake all day and night, experiment with new recipes, and make their favorite stuff but they knew there was no way on planet Earth that they could eat all the sweets they wanted to make. They had to come up with a way to share. So they founded Treat Street.

Treat Street is the original, friendly, neighborhood, underground, roving, secret bakery. Every so often, they set up cardboard shop in a driveway with a table or two loaded with homemade goodness and wait to see what happens.

http://goop.com/newsletter/54/treatstreet.jpg

Here are some of the things that happen:

* Friends, neighbors, and total strangers show up and eat treats.
* Old timey bake sale favorites mix with tons of recipes that have never seen the light of day.
* Kids freak out over crazy goodies.
* People in big squirrel and bear costumes show up unannounced to say hi.
* Dogs get sad when no one lets them eat chocolate.
* Customers buy everything - even the little cookies that are used to hold the signs up.
* Mary, Clare, and Crystal eat so many treats and have so much fun that they go into sugar shock and close up shop so they can go eat tacos (phew).

Currently, the plan is to keep baking and Treat Streeting until the sugar wells run dry. And since that will never happen, the future is looking mighty bright.

Check out Treat Street! treatst.blogspot.com (http://treatst.blogspot.com/?utm_source=Goop+Newsletter&utm_campaign=822164f4fc-Goop54_10_29_2009&utm_medium=email)

Treat Street’s Favorite Halloween Recipes
Eyeball Cupcakes

The Baker:
Clare Crespo is an artist, cookbook author, and the creator of The Yummyfun Kooking series, possibly the wildest cooking show ever. She’s never met a cupcake she didn’t like and has baked them in every which way you could possibly imagine – panda-style, hamburger-esque, flower-potted, you name it – for magazines, newspapers, one-woman shows, and galleries around the world. Check out www.yummyfun.com.

The Treat:
Here is my Granny Helen’s recipe for Red Velvet Cake, but you can use any cake recipe for these. You can make these using a mini cupcake tin too!

Ingredients:

* ½ cup vegetable shortening
* 1½ cups granulated sugar
* 2 eggs
* ¼ cup red food coloring, plus more for the frosting
* 2 tablespoons cocoa powder
* 2½ cups unbleached, all-purpose flour
* 1 teaspoon salt
* 1 cup buttermilk
* ¼ cup water
* 1 teaspoon vanilla
* 1 teaspoon white vinegar
* 1 teaspoon baking soda
* plenty of vanilla buttercream frosting (use your favorite recipe or buy it prepared)
* red food coloring
* 24 Gummy Lifesavers (or any round candy with a hole in it)
* 24 black jellybeans

Preheat oven to 350°. Line two 12-cupcake tins with white paper liners.

Cream shortening and sugar together by hand or in an electric mixer until fluffy. Add eggs and blend well. In a small bowl, make a paste of food coloring and cocoa and add to the shortening mixture. Sift flour and salt together into this mixture. Add the buttermilk and stir until incorporated, then stir in the water and the vanilla. In a small bowl, mix the vinegar with the baking soda. Fold this mixture into the cake batter, making sure it’s incorporated but being sure not to overmix it.

Pour the batter into the cupcake tins. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until the cakes spring back when touched. Remove from oven and let cool for about 10 minutes, then turn the cupcakes out of pans and onto a rack to finish cooling completely.

When they’re cool, cover the cupcakes with vanilla frosting. Tint your extra frosting with red food coloring. Using a pastry bag and a small round tip, pipe the red frosting on the tops of the cupcakes to resemble bloodshot veins. Place one jellybean into the hole of each round candy. Now you have irises and pupils. Place one in the center of each cupcake. Serve in pairs. Eeeek!

Cinnamon Rolls a.k.a. SIN-amon Rolls

The Baker:
Mary Wigmore Reynolds is a filmmaker and artist. She recently had her first solo show of paintings of raccoons, coyotes, and other varmints entitled The Unwanteds. Her High Five cookies do not fall into that category. In fact, at Treat Street they are always the first to go.

The Treat:
You could wear these on your ears to complete your Princess Leia Halloween costume!

Ingredients:

* Dough: 4½ - 5 cups unbleached, all-purpose flour, divided, plus more for rolling out
* 1 package (¼ oz.) active dry yeast
* 1 cup milk
* 1/3 cup unsalted butter
* 1/3 cup sugar
* ½ teaspoon salt
* 3 large eggs
* vegetable oil for your bowl and cake pan

* Filling: ¾ cup brown sugar
* ¼ cup unbleached, all-purpose flour
* 1¼ tablespoons ground cinnamon
* ½ cup unsalted butter, cold and cut into small pieces

For the dough:
In the bowl of the electric mixer with paddle attachment, mix 2 cups flour with the yeast. In a small saucepan over medium heat stirring constantly warm the milk, butter, sugar and salt until butter is just melted. With the mixer on low, slowly add the milk mixture into the flour and yeast mixture. Add the eggs one at a time. Beat on high for 3 minutes. Replace the paddle with a dough hook and knead in 2½ cups flour for about 4 minutes. You don’t want dough to be too sticky so add more flour if necessary until it’s smooth.

Shape the dough into a ball. Place the dough in a greased bowl and turn it over once. Cover with a clean cloth and let it rise! This usually takes about an hour to an hour and half. Then punch it down (be nice!) and place on a lightly floured surface, cover with a clean cloth and let it rest for 10 minutes.

NOW FOR THE FILLING!
Combine brown sugar, flour and cinnamon in a mixing bowl. Cut in cold butter and mix until crumbly. Set aside.

To finish:
Roll the dough into a 12" square. Evenly sprinkle over filling. Roll dough into a log and pinch the edges to seal. Slice log into 12-14 rolls. Arrange in a greased round cake pan. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and let the rolls rise for an hour or so until nearly doubled in size (or refrigerate for up to a day but let it sit out for 20-30 minutes before baking).

Bake at 375°F for 30 minutes or until light brown. Cool for 10 minutes then invert onto a large round serving dish! Eat them all!

Crystal’s TNTs a.k.a. Hey, Where’d My Candy Go?

The Baker:
Crystal Meers is an editor at DailyCandy.com. Though determined to top her tinfoil-covered sandwich board costume from third grade (which was around the time she started baking scones), she’s not sure what she’s going to be this Halloween. And even if she was, she wouldn’t want to give it away.

The Treat:
A variation on what’s known on the streets as a Kitchen Sink, TNTs (which stands for Trick N Treats) are good for two reasons: 1. They allow you to stuff several varieties of candy bars in your mouth at once, with no risk of getting some really weird looks. 2. It’s the fastest way to empty out the plastic pumpkin goodie stash we’ve ever seen.*

*We heard you could get rid of Halloween candy even faster by tossing it out but we’ve never seen anything that crazy happen!

Ingredients:

* 3 cups unbleached, all-purpose flour
* 1 teaspoon baking soda
* ½ teaspoon salt
* 1 stick unsalted butter (8 tablespoons) at room temperature
* 1 cup packed brown sugar
* 1 cup granulated sugar
* 2 large eggs
* 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
* 2 tablespoons milk
* 2 to 3 cups candy, chopped (recommended: chocolate bars or chocolate covered anything, caramel anything, chips, pretzels, raisins; just so-so: lollipops, hard candies; not recommended: gum, gummies, pixi stix)

Preheat oven to 375° F. Line two cookie sheets with parchment paper.

In a medium bowl, whisk flour with baking soda and salt and set aside. In another medium bowl, cream butter and sugars together with a whisk or wooden spoon until light and fluffy (this takes about 3 minutes). Add eggs one at a time, thoroughly incorporating each, and then add vanilla and milk and beat until combined. Add the flour mixture to the butter mixture, mix until incorporated, then fold in chopped candy.

Drop by rounded tablespoons (a mini ice cream scooper is my favorite way to portion them) onto cookie sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie (room to grow). Bake for 12 minutes or until golden brown. Let cool on a wire rack.

She's is amazing!
While watching "A Perfect Murder" last night,I was reminded just how talented she is.:)
Has anybody else noticed how she always get stuck with guys less than "lack luster" starring opposite from her?

I guess that shows how talented she really is!:laugh3:

I jut saw this on Lainey's site...I cant stand that woman(Lainey)


Gwyneth humiliated
Star Magazine is definitely not the most trustworthy source. Most of it is bullsh-t. But this is a story that cannot be ignored. The new issue of Star Magazine includes an explosive allegation – Chris Martin cheated on Gwyneth Paltrow with Kate Bosworth. Yes. Her again.

Ordinarily, considering it’s Star, the immediate reaction is to dismiss. But here’s why this report might be different. Because several magazines were investigating it a few days ago. I received calls about it on Saturday from other magazines. Chris and Kate were supposedly kissing in the open at a U2 show in Vegas two weeks ago in plain view. Which means that there was more than one witness. And each witness went to a tabloid. And each tabloid was scrambling to source it. And Star Magazine beat everyone else to the punch.Because their fact checkers are faster? Heh. Needless to say, reps for all three have issued denials. Because reps NEVER EVER lie.

The new issue of Star Magazine hits stands tomorrow. etalk has a special preview tonight. So should we believe it?

Well…

There's precedent. I’ve been telling you about Kate Bosworth. My sources told me she allegedly pursued Jim Sturgess relentlessly during 21 without respecting the fact that he had a girlfriend. She did the same recently with Alexander Skarsgard and Evan Rachel Wood. She does not seem to care. If she wants it, she goes for it. Must be a food deficiency. And of course whatever “happy” makes her happy.

As for Chris Martin… if you’ve been reading this site long enough, you already know about those old rumours. London was buzzing about something with a civilian nearly two years ago and more recently, Chris and Gwyneth hit a rough patch like this before that resulted in a positive resolution. But those were kept undercover. They were not blown out publicly with G plastered all over the papers, embarrassingly portrayed as the jilted, homely wife betrayed for a younger version of herself.

How utterly…common.

And that’s the humiliation, isn’t it? Not only is her husband cheating, but now it’s become supermarket material. Gwyneth’s face alongside Jon & Kate plus 8. In her circle, this s the ultimate insult.

And you hate her so much, you’ll probably say she deserves it. Yeah, Gwyneth deserves a lot of snark, she deserves your derision a lot of the time too. But she doesn’t deserve a prick ass husband and a skank crank hag who always hankers for what doesn’t belong to her.

Watch etalk tonight for more details on what Kate and Chris were doing and how flagrantly they behaved afterwards.

[marie/pims]

^what the fuck?????Complete crap.As if Chris would do that

[Pris]

Right... So she doesn't believe a word from star magazine unless it says exactly what she's looking for, which is complete bs. What an idiot :dozey:

[SueDeNimes]

Oh no. :wtf:

[Roberta]

:o:angry::confused:

[Roberta]

one thing is right, chris was at that concert. But there are photos?

[Hogy]

He kissed Kate at the U2 show? He doesn't even hold hands with his WIFE in public, why the hell should he cheat on her with 50,000 people standing around?

[Pris]

I don't think there are :thinking: Plus, I think a few people from Coldplay's team was there too, Arlene tweeted about it and said it was a "work thing" :P

[roche714]

Ive been reading on line that Kate B is together with Alexander Skarsgard from True Blood.He's tall and blonde,maybe people thought he was Chris.

About a year ago I read one of those blind items that said that Chris and Kate had a thing backstage at Coldplay's concert in Los Angeles.I hate reading these things

[MartinFan]

relax.......

[Mimixxx]

Whether it's true or not from the sounds of it this is gonna get big :confused:

[Roberta]

yeah this is gonna to be a "huge" thing. It never happens before.....

[Roberta]

and it will be the cover of the magazine

[VivaNewYork]

i think thats crap.. i mean.. chris is too cute to cheat on his wife :\

[Roberta]

http://www.x17online.com/


well...here's another sighting

[monicka]

Wow Kate Bosworth just gets linked to everyone doesn't she? 2 weeks ago, she was here in LA with Alex Skarsgard (they were at the Chateau Marmont after they made an appearance at Spike's Scream Awards on the 17th)- that's 2 weeks ago right?

Also, if i remember right.... Back in the Spring or Summer- Chris and GP were spotted having a meal with Kate Bosworh and her boyfriend at that time, James Rousseau- oddly enough at the Chateau Marmont as well. It was on People.com

Funnily enough, I actually ran into Kate Bosworth and said boyfriend at the Coldplay concert last year at the Forum here in LA.

In lighter news, I've read that Gwyneth might replace Charlize Theron in The Danish Girl. If it is true, she'll be co-starring with Nicole Kidman, who is also producing. Nicole is playing a man who undergoes a sex change- and Gwyneth would play the wife role.

Hehehe. She always plays the wife role. Like in "seven". It really suits her though :D

[monicka]

Not a wife role whose husband is actually played a woman who plays a Danish man who becomes the first person to go through a successful sex-change operation to become a woman. LOL

Gwyneth Paltrow's Hubby Caught Kissing Another Blonde

The Internet is already abuzz with Star's exclusive story about Coldplay frontman Chris Martin's hot make-out session with a beautiful blonde who wasn't Gwyneth Paltrow. In fact, the Brit singer was locking lips with his better half's good friend, Kate Bosworth!

"I couldn't believe my eyes," an eyewitness tells Star in our Nov. 16 issue. "There was Chris totally making out with Kate in front of other people. At first I thought it might be Gwyneth, but when she came up for air, it was clear the woman was Kate!"

But we can't give you all the details here. You'll have to pick up Star magazine when it hits newsstands starting Wednesday.

[Hogy]

Well, just because he's Chris Martin doesn't mean he's flawless. He's only human, after all. I'm not saying that I believe this story, but still Chris is not a saint.

[Roberta]

hogy it's true

[Texasluvsjonny]

So lets see, that's Chris leaving Coldplay around 4 times now...... Chris and Gwyneth divorcing, shit I lost count so many times now......They have to be up to what around 8 or 9 kids with her many "close to sources" pregnancies.....and of course we are all still eagerly awaiting her singing debut on the next next next Coldplay album, that's only if Chris doesn't leave the band at her instance. :dozey:

[monicka]

yeah but cheating doesn't justify someone being "human"- not to me anyway. that's one of the worst things that I can think of a person doing- let alone in a marriage that involves young children. then again this is only coming someone who's been through the other end of it...

cheating sounds so light...more like "adultery" I guess :thinking:

[Roberta]

in fact monicka...if this story is true chris has no justification. there is a marriage and 2 children.

Yeah, of course it's wrong to cheat. I was just referring to this post: "if a man like Chris Martin can actually do such a thing like that to his wife and 2 kids- the world is probably ending" I just think that even a man like Chris Martin is capable of doing things that are wrong. Do you know what I mean?

Exclusive: Chris Martin "Never" Kissed Kate Bosworth, Says Rep

Chris Martin's rep is denying a new Star tabloid story that claims the Coldplay rocker, 32, recently kissed 26-year-old actress Kate Bosworth (http://www.usmagazine.com/celebrities/kate-bosworth).

Star quotes an unnamed as saying that Martin was "totally making out with Kate in front of other people" at an unnamed event.

But Martin's rep tells Usmagazine.com (http://www.usmagazine.com/celebritynews/photos/jons-biggest-photo-faux-pas-2009268): "This story is entirely untrue."

Martin and his wife of six years, Gwyneth Paltrow (http://www.usmagazine.com/celebrities/gwyneth-paltrow), are "more than fine," a source tells Us.

The source says the alleged Martin-Bosworth make-out "simply never happened.

She may have been in the same room with him, but he is not having an affair, was not kissing her or holding her hand."

I jut saw this on Lainey's site...I cant stand that woman(Lainey)


Gwyneth humiliated
Star Magazine is definitely not the most trustworthy source. Most of it is bullsh-t. But this is a story that cannot be ignored. The new issue of Star Magazine includes an explosive allegation – Chris Martin cheated on Gwyneth Paltrow with Kate Bosworth. Yes. Her again.

Ordinarily, considering it’s Star, the immediate reaction is to dismiss. But here’s why this report might be different. Because several magazines were investigating it a few days ago. I received calls about it on Saturday from other magazines. Chris and Kate were supposedly kissing in the open at a U2 show in Vegas two weeks ago in plain view. Which means that there was more than one witness. And each witness went to a tabloid. And each tabloid was scrambling to source it. And Star Magazine beat everyone else to the punch.Because their fact checkers are faster? Heh. Needless to say, reps for all three have issued denials. Because reps NEVER EVER lie.

The new issue of Star Magazine hits stands tomorrow. etalk has a special preview tonight. So should we believe it?

Well…

There's precedent. I’ve been telling you about Kate Bosworth. My sources told me she allegedly pursued Jim Sturgess relentlessly during 21 without respecting the fact that he had a girlfriend. She did the same recently with Alexander Skarsgard and Evan Rachel Wood. She does not seem to care. If she wants it, she goes for it. Must be a food deficiency. And of course whatever “happy” makes her happy.

As for Chris Martin… if you’ve been reading this site long enough, you already know about those old rumours. London was buzzing about something with a civilian nearly two years ago and more recently, Chris and Gwyneth hit a rough patch like this before that resulted in a positive resolution. But those were kept undercover. They were not blown out publicly with G plastered all over the papers, embarrassingly portrayed as the jilted, homely wife betrayed for a younger version of herself.

How utterly…common.

And that’s the humiliation, isn’t it? Not only is her husband cheating, but now it’s become supermarket material. Gwyneth’s face alongside Jon & Kate plus 8. In her circle, this s the ultimate insult.

And you hate her so much, you’ll probably say she deserves it. Yeah, Gwyneth deserves a lot of snark, she deserves your derision a lot of the time too. But she doesn’t deserve a prick ass husband and a skank crank hag who always hankers for what doesn’t belong to her.

Watch etalk tonight for more details on what Kate and Chris were doing and how flagrantly they behaved afterwards.

Shut the fuck up Lainey, and stop being such a stupid-ass bitch. I'm sick of this chick jumping on ANYTHING that comes up in the tabloids about Chris/Gwyneth. This woman's obsessed, srsly.

And I agree, the man wouldn't hold hands with Gwyn in public, so why would he kiss Kate Bosworth IN FRONT OF LOTS OF PEOPLE? Ridic. I may not like G, but still, ridic.

Also, video or it didn't happen.

[monicka]

I dont even understand how people can read things like the Star. And that Lainey character- dont even get me started on that witch.

I'm not surprised that all their reps immediately issued statements though.

"So while my Gwyneth is eating the humiliation and trying to grit through this with an uppercrust smile, safely ensconced in her big house with the apple orchard, Madonna hit up the Valentino party with her Jesus…and is that Steven Klein?

RIGHT...she forgets GP actually has 2 children that go to school in London.
Speaking of- I just saw her Twitter profile photo. IS THAT HER??? She could at least try to look decent and less homely.

[Sirhc]

New Goop!

When I can steal a quiet moment I like to peruse these websites for inspiration and/or great buys. A couple are invite-only so we have hooked up a special entree to them. These people are contributing something great to the world of food, fashion/art, and home and health.

Enjoy...


Garance Doré features illustrator Garance Doré’s street fashion photography as well as her sketches. Like her boyfriend, Sartorialist’s Scott Schuman, she snaps the fashion elite on the streets of London, Paris, Milan, and New York. I love the portraits she takes, sometimes sweet and cheerful and sometimes plain romantic.



The Selby is photographer, watercolorist and all around man about town, Todd Selby’s website of the quirkiest and hippest spaces. He travels the world taking you into the homes and offices of artists, models, designers, and art and fashion world intelligentsia. The spaces are idiosyncratic and authentic, the people are glamorous and edgy – it’s a design voyeur’s dream!

Check out my dear friend Stella McCartney’s new collection for Gap Kids. It is simply perfect - cute and insanely hip.


My obsession, Remodelista is 4 design bloggers bi-coastal collaboration that began in 2006 after both Julie and Francesca had both finished renovating their homes. They realized they had loads of valuable information to share and were soon joined by Janet and Sarah. Now, the 4 bloggers take you to restaurants, designer’s homes and studios, and even their own homes for inspiration. They have impeccable taste and provide all the tips on everything from furniture to faucets down to light fixtures and paint colors. You can shop the site and sort items by category and even color.



For all those mourning the loss of so many shelter publications including Domino, House & Garden, and Blueprint, there’s Lonny, an online magazine founded by Domino alumni Michelle Adams and photographer Patrick Cline. It’s a novel idea, a true home design magazine with pages that turn at the click of a mouse. The fashion shoots and even the featured homes are chock-full of clickable images that link to online shops where you can buy the items. Lonny launched in October of 2009 and you can look forward to the next issue in early December.


Lately as I work on redecorating, I constantly consult One Kings Lane for design inspiration and great steals for my own home. The site is a members-only source for luxury home goods sales (membership is free). The prices are truly enticing, and the site hosts at least two brand sales each day Monday through Friday. I also like to check out their Get Inspired section where you can peak into designers’ homes and read their decorating tips. And, starting next week, I’ll be getting a head start on my holiday shopping at OKL. In addition to themed Friday sales events (next week is Holiday Correspondence, Holiday Ornaments and Holiday Entertaining), the site’s Must Have Gifts section will be full of gifting inspiration for the upcoming holiday season.

GOOP readers can sign up at www.onekingslane.com/goop and they’ve created a special sweepstakes for GOOP — someone lucky will win a $250 shopping spree to One Kings Lane!


Every afternoon at twelve o’clock precisely (EST), a surge of shoppers sign (or pounce) onto GILT, an online “sample sale” of Men’s, Women’s and Children’s clothing and home goods. Each day features a few different brands and items are up to 70% off. The site is invite only so use this special link to join: gilt.com/goop. Download the new iPhone application, Gilt on the Go, and beat the masses!


Food52 is a home cooking celebration brought to you by food writers Amanda Hesser and Merill Stubbs. Each week home cooks face off, offering their recipes on themes like “best beer cocktail” or “best fig recipe.” Amanda and Merrill judge all the entries, testing the most appealing recipes and posting the best ones online. The 52 winning recipes from the weekly contest will be included in a cookbook published by Harper Studio at the end of the year. I’ve been a judge on Food52, and let me just say, the recipes are excellent!


The River Cottage is something of a mecca for those wanting to learn more about producing their own quality, local, and seasonal food. Hugh Fearnley–Whittingstall’s working farm located on the Devon/Dorset border here in England, is also a school offering courses as wide-ranging as Beekeeping, Allotment Gardening, Meat Curing and Smoking, Bread and something called “Pig in a Day”. The website presents Hugh and the River Cottage team’s tips on Gardening, Raising Lifestock, Seasonal Recipes and much more. Sometimes I peruse the website just to fantasize about having a sustainable sustenance farm of my very own. They also have a wealth of holiday themed courses coming up which sounds like a perfect, cozy feasts in the country.


I go to Refinery29 to get current on the newest and best in fashion, shopping, and emerging trends from the runways to the streets of New York and London. Every day, Refinery29 delivers up-to-the-minute insider reports on the designers to know and the most compelling global street style, breaking fashion news from must-see sample sales to boutique openings, along with the best local shopping reports from experts who know their cities best. You can shop a well curated selection of designers at Refinery29Shops and, up next, the site will host a pop-up sample sale of favored designers from November 12th to 22nd in SoHo, NYC. You can expect brands like Rag & Bone, Steven Alan, Built By Wendy, Vena Cava, and many, many others at slashed prices.


For comic relief, Green Porno on Sundance Channel is now in its third season of deadpan puppet shows by Isabella Rossellini. I’ve learned a lot more than I want to about reproduction in the animal and insect kingdoms. This season, the third so far, has an especially eco-friendly and equally hilarious bent, showing, in the simplest of terms, where the fish we eat come from and the effect mass fishing has on the environment.

And finally, as the winter approaches, it’s important to stay up to date on health matters. I regularly check my doctor, Dr. Frank Lipman’s recommendations on Huffington Post. Here are his most recent recommendations on Vitamin D. Take care of you and yours this holiday season.

[Sirhc]

Did you guys notice the jackets in Stella McCartney’s new collection for Gap Kids? They are soooo Coldplay inspired! :lol:

Well they might have sat together had all this not happened...would have caused a lot of attention given the circumstances, maybe they didn't want to pull focus from their friend's gig. :idea2:

Anyway, great Goop, I love Stella's Gap line :D

Gwyneth Paltrow has joined (http://weblogs.variety.com/bfdealmemo/2009/11/paltrow-joins-kidman-in-danish-girl-.html)the cast of The Danish Girl, a film adapted from David Ebershoff’s novel, which tells the story of Einar Wegener, the first post-operative transsexual and the relationship with his wife Greta.

Nicole Kidman has already been tapped to play Einar Wegener, while Paltrow will play Greta. Thomas Alfredson is set to direct.

Paltrow can be next seen in Iron Man 2 and Kidman can be seen in Nine.

The Danish Girl is set for a 2011 release.

I bet Angie's coldplay fund paid for that rock :P

[Pris]

Sorry, what I said before was a lie, as I just realized that this:
And so bloody boring... and so bloody miserable! It's like she won the Oscar and became sooooo pretentious. Gwyneth can be fun at times.

And yes Lore, you MUST see Shakespeare in Love, it's beautiful!

Like Sliding Doors too, and forgive me, but I love Shallow Hal :embarassed:
is the one Gwyneth movie I've seen from begging to end, and more than once :lol:

[RedGirl76]

I've never seen a complete movie of hers :uhoh: I've seen bit and pieces of Shakespeare in love and I always seem to end up watching the 2nd half of Silvia. I don't know what happens in the first half :confused:

You need to see Shakespeare in Love in the original language... Ben Affleck in tights with an English accent: hot, hot, hot!

I have Shallow Hal on DVD :shame::

Ooooh The Talented Mr. Ripley is awesome too.

I always forget she's in that, yep, another brilliant movie!

[Pris]

I bet Angie's coldplay fund paid for that rock :P
I wouldn't doubt it for second :P

Uhhh, you sure know how to get my interest :wideeyed: *makes mental note to get those two movies*

[RedGirl76]

I wouldn't doubt it for second :P

Uhhh, you sure know how to get my interest :wideeyed: *makes mental note to get those two movies*

With The Talented Mr. Ripley to get a lot of naked Jude Law :wink3:

Oooh and whilst we're at it, The Royal Tenembaums is great too!

[Lore]

Jude Law? Ben Affleck :wideeyed:

*goes to get all the Gwyneth filmography*

[Pris]

Damn it, too many movies to watch! :bomb:

[Mimixxx]

I HATE Ben Affleck :sick:

I think he's a terrible actor :escaping:

[Lore]

but he's cute :wacky:


*thinks about armaggeddon*



*is in a cheesy mood :cheesy:*

[RedGirl76]

Ah, this is where we disagree, I think Ben Affleck is great... damn J-Lo nearly ruined his career! A brilliant movie that might change your mind about him is "Hollywoodland".

It's based on the story of George Reeves who played Superman in the original 1950's tv show. He died in suspicious circumstances and the movie deals is all about that.

Back on topic, just had a look at GP's entry on IMDB and she's credited on the soundtrack to an ep of One Tree Hill - how random! http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0666245/soundtrack

Okay, I'll check it out :D

And really?! Haha wow.

[Pris]

Mmm... I'm gonna have to check that movie :nice: Maybe he'll end up being such bad actor afterall, but he's done some really crappy movies :sick:

[Mimixxx]

I think Brad Pitt is average too. Other than one or two films he's not impressed me at all.

[TickingClock]

This is it:

YouTube- Sheryl Crow - It's Only Love

A user said she'd sing in the chorus, but I don't really hear her. Maybe she has just backing vocals? :confused:
Maybe my ears are bad today. :dozey:

[RedGirl76]

Oh yeah, I so don't get the Brad Pitt thing... boring to watch and boring to look at too, he does nothing for me.

Both ex's of Gwyneth's... I think she traded up!

[Pris]

She for sure did!! :nice:

Ohh, and has this been posted? Another stupid article with a ridiculous story that doesn't back up the affair but still says crap about them as a couple :dozey: *yawn*

Fox411 Exclusive: Chris Martin denies Kate Bosworth cheating story

Chris Martin is denying cheating on wife Gwyneth Paltrow after a story surfaced that he was canoodling with actress Kate Bosworth.

Star magazine reported that the Coldplay lead singer was spotted making out with Bosworth, but a source close to the couple backs Chris, adding that while the couple has issues, Kate Bosworth is not one of them.

"Chris did not hook up with Kate in public or private," the insider tells Fox411. "Chris has enough to deal with his work, his children and Gwyneth. He is not adding an affair with another A-lister to his list of things to do."

[Mimixxx]

I saw that...he mocks Goop and she's annoyed :dozey:

[RedGirl76]

"Chris pretty much laughed off the accusations and even Gwyneth was fairly unaffected," says the source. "She trusts Chris would not cheat on her in such a blatant, public manner."

That's an interesting phrase... are they suggesting she's ok with him cheating on her if he's quiet about it? :confused:

[Mimixxx]

Did anyone see the full Star article? Is ludicrous.

Says he was joined by other Coldplay members and she went up to the hostess and was bragging about being Gwyneth's friend. :rolleyes:

Are you serious?? :thinking:
As if anyone would recognize the "other 3"! :lol: :shame:

[RedGirl76]

I thought Guy was wandering through Scandanivia :P (again :lol:)

[Mimixxx]

:lol:

[RedGirl76]

Pris, I think you need to do one of your ace Guy photo manipulations... he appears to go to Scandanavia so often, you need to give him a viking look :P

I'm off to bed ladies, thanks for your always charming company :kiss:

Gwyneth Paltrow has joined (http://weblogs.variety.com/bfdealmemo/2009/11/paltrow-joins-kidman-in-danish-girl-.html)the cast of The Danish Girl, a film adapted from David Ebershoff’s novel, which tells the story of Einar Wegener, the first post-operative transsexual and the relationship with his wife Greta.

Nicole Kidman has already been tapped to play Einar Wegener, while Paltrow will play Greta. Thomas Alfredson is set to direct.

Paltrow can be next seen in Iron Man 2 and Kidman can be seen in Nine.

The Danish Girl is set for a 2011 release.

Oh and Gwyneth today in London looking happy :D

http://www.usmagazine.com/hotpics/photos/she-s-got-a-ring-on-it-2009611



Wow that ring is HUGE.

I'm really glad about the Nicole Kidman movie. It should be interesting to see them in a film together. I heard Nicole had a big hand in choosing her co-star- she is producing after all.

[*Perrine*]

Never? :o

Shakespeare in Love is :heart: Sliding Doors is great too :D
This movie is great indeed !
At one point she's totally naked ^^

Same, I really hope this is true.

Same, I really hope this is true.

Im pretty sure it is true. News came out last week that she was in talks to join but it wasn't until today that there was official confirmation from Variety magazine.

OMG I know!! :stunned::stunned:
well at least we know what Chris gets on the menu :laugh3::P
but the movie is so so good:smug:

That's pretty much exactly what I was thinking. It's like it's implying that she thinks Chris could possibly cheat on her in private. Far out. Bad wording.

[Hahna]

I'm watching Rove and there's an interview with Joel Madden, and Rove asked him "What would happen if your kids got together with Gwyneth Paltrow's? Would Sparrow eat Apple?" or something like that...

[century-letters]

^ HAHAH. Oh man, I can't believe I missed Rove tonight. Lame.

That Vanity Fair cover is prob my favorite of hers to this day. No one captures her better than Mario Testino. The pictures inside are beautiful too.

[nancyk58]

I just saw this thing about voting for GWYN as winner for the best Vanity Fair Cover in 2000. It seems like she is winning.

Top 3 at 1:50 on 10/11-09:

Gwyn got 170 votes = 25%
Heath Ledger got 101 votes = 15%
Cameron Diaz got 75 votes = 11%

Total votes: 668. So it is looking really good.

The pictures and that cover are so georgous. She truly deserves to win. :thumbsup:

[starsinheavenalign]

She's just naturally classy!I love her style!:D

Moses Martin: Stuffed Animal Adorable

Gwyneth Paltrow takes her son Moses, 3, to visit some friends in London on Tuesday (November 10).

The 37-year-old actress recently shared the websites she peruses for inspiration and/or great buys on GOOP. Here are some of the URLs she listed: Garance Doré (for street photography), The Selby (watercolor art and photography), Remodelista (design blog), Food52 (food celebration), One Kings Lane (design inspiration) and Lonny (design mag).

10+ pictures inside of Gwyneth Paltrow and Moses out and about…

Not posting his photos on here. I don't know, but I don't feel right about it. :\
They're in the article anyway.

[Pris]

Voted! :nice:

[Pris]

I've been watching clips of Jon Stewart's Daily Show and while searching Coldplay's performance there, this (http://www.thedailyshow.com/watch/thu-september-16-2004/gwyneth-paltrow) interview with Gwyneth came up :nice: It's from 2004 but it's really funny!! :lol:

[nancyk58]

I followed the link to see the new pictures of Moses and his mother. He is such a cute, beautiful boy. I think there is a great resemblance with his father, and the boy looks so happy - and Gwyneth, too. :)

Thanks for posting this 2004 interview with Gwyneth.

Gwyneth Paltrow Has Coffee And A ‘Danish’

Gwyneth Paltrow goes for a walk and warms up with a cup of coffee in chilly London on Tuesday (November 11).

The 37-year-old actress is gearing up for The Danish Girl, replacing Charlize Theron in the role of Greta, a 1920s painter whose husband (Nicole Kidman) dresses and poses for her as a female model.

He realizes that it’s more than posing…and begins to change.

The Danish Girl will be the first time Nicole and Gwyn have shared the big screen since 1993’s Malice.

Hi Pris, I love Jon Stewart!!

(Coldplay's visit there was so funny!!)
However when I click the link I get an error message... can anyone provide me with a working link please? :wacko:

These pap pic headlines are always so "original" :dozey:

[Mimixxx]

She's been papped every single day this week, always in the same spot on the road by the school. They wait there every single day to get the same pic of her picking up Apple and Moses whilst looking effortlessly chic
