Hmmm - cougar alert???

We are given to understand that Gwyneth Paltrow is boggled, on her return from the wilds of wellness-promotion to movie-making, by the advent of intimacy coordinators:

she would feel "very stifled" by someone telling them what to do.

(We wonder about the feelings of her considerably younger co-star who is probably used to them....)

And on the one hand, she is, after all, famed for being so attuned to her yoni-power that she was about candles emitting its odour, and touting steaming it (which you should, actually, only do if that bad puppy your womb has taken to careering madly about your body) and inserting jade eggs which aroused certain concerns about cleanliness and hygiene....

And on the other, I can recall her coming over all blushing Victorian maiden when asked whether she had personally field-tested the extremely pricey super-vibrator she was touting a few years ago.

So maybe the implication that she is a raunchy up-for-it wanton has more to do with promoting her appearance in a somewhat erotic movie, Wot, me, cynical, perish the thort.

Does she always feel very stifled about taking direction? Because, honestly, that sounds like a diva thing and not a normal actor thing.

Gwyneth Paltrow was all

"I had Long COVID! But I cured it with a plant based diet and essential oils. Total coincidence - you can buy the essential oils from my online shop!"

For fucks sake :(

the National Health Service actually reprimanded her for her comments about COVID and asked the public to ignore her advice.

I liked her as an actor in her early stuff - Sliding Doors, Emma etc etc -, but her more recent anti-science bullshit really harms real people.

Hard pass.

This feels more like a man saying "Hey, we're cool, I'm not going to cause problems" to the intimacy co-ordinator and feeling like they're implying he's going to do something he shouldn't than anything else. I would have thought her interested in having someone there to make sure it was all safe, rather than trying to blow them off.
