And as we haven’t seen a single wrinkle on the smooth peaches and cream complexion of her Goop-iness, we suppose we’ll take her statement as plain, unvarnished truth. For the time being…

The Oscar winning actress has gotten a lot of flack for her holier-than-thou comments about her organic skincare regimen, her insistence on $60 olive oil, her can’t-live-without in-home pizza oven, and other luxuries we mere mortals can only dream about…and now she gives us another cause to hate her turn green with envy at her age defying declaration…

“I have a lot of inflammation in my system, so I’m not having anything I’m allergic to — no gluten, no dairy, no sugar,”

Gwyneth told Harper’s Bazaar.

“I’ll wake up exhausted; I can feel my adrenal cortex being really high. When I get into bed, my heart will pound, my skin won’t be good, I’ll feel cranky, and then I’ll just know it’s time.”

Uh…is that a case of the hot flashes, Gwyneth? Aren’t you too young for menopause at 39?

“I don’t like the Botox thing,”

Gwyneth revealed about her dislike for artificial means to keep aging at bay.

However, she admitted she’d had “little things” done for the sake of looking like she does…with laser treatments and regular facials. The latter with London-based facialist, Vaishaly Patel who charges £250 ($390) for every 55-minute session.  But hey, whatever works for her, right? All we can do is head down to the kitchen for the good ol’ remedy of a mayo and mashed banana facial, with an added bonus of cold cucumbers for our eyes. Works pretty well for less than $5, too.

But Gwyneth being Gwyneth, she revealed she counts her extraordinary discipline to stay fit, beautiful, and wrinkle-free.

“I’ll have a smoothie before [I take the kids to school], with protein and almond milk, and coconut water while I’m working out, and usually a green juice afterward.”

She continued.

“A lot of times, I’ll just have half an avocado with salad dressing or rice cakes and almond butter and fruit, but if I have some time, then I’ll make a salad with protein or a turkey burger.”

We’re getting hungry just thinking about it. Let’s call take out for a pizza with everything on it…

The 47-year-old frontwoman for rock band “Hole,” and the 39-year-old Oscar winner and high-society Goop mistress make for very dubious-looking chums, but hey…it’s 2012…stranger things have happened. At least, they’re both blonde. More or less. And had/have musicians for spouses…

“getting the best advise for the new years from a true friend, love you @GwynethPaltrow @Goop xoxo”

Courtney tweeted her new BFF at the start of the New Year.

Wonder what life-changing advice Gwyneth dished out on her blog, Goop that had Courtney kowtowing in gratitude? Might it be her list of New Year hangover cures, perhaps?

We can only guess. But this year promises to be a very interesting one indeed if we’re going to hear more about the unbelievable friendship between Courtney Love and Gwyneth Paltrow…

You think?

Gwyneth, who’s admitted to being a lush despite looking oh, so prim and proper, has her own slew of hangover remedies which she says would go well in hand the day after a raucous New Year’s Eve celebration the night before. And if you’re thinking maybe you’d like to aspire to the kind of life Gwyneth lives, check out some of her hangover tips:

“We all know what happens on NYE so here is our best to help you prepare for the day after,”

Gwyneth wrote in one of her Goop newsletters, citing medical advice from professionals including Dr. Frank Lipman and Dr. Oz Garcia.

She recommends a Mercy health elixir, which Gwyneth swears is…

“packed with amino acids, vitamins, minerals and herbs that protect your system against the inevitable hangover and that flush you can get from drinking.”

Uh…how much does this Mercy concoction cost? Not a whole year’s salary, surely?

“I’ve been known to recreate this experience at home too. Just draw a bath that is as hot as you can handle it and mix in some Epsom Salts and Baking Soda,”

Gwyneth continues to write, undeterred.

“Soak for twenty minutes and then pop into a freezing cold shower for 1 minute. Get back in the hot bath and stay until you’re warmed up. Then get back in the shower for 1 more minute.”

Which is a pretty good one, assuming you have the strength to climb out of the trash bin/park bench/boot of your car/from under your beer can strewn sofa to get to the bathroom.

Oh, wait…you’re probably already parked by the commode where you’ve fallen asleep puking the night before. So Happy New Year! And have a great time getting sober…

How wonderful for Her Goop-ness to have rubbed elbows with HRH Prince Ginger, who seems to be making up for lost time spent away from the London social scene ever since he arrived from Stateside. Incidentally, Gwyneth has been hanging out at the Mayfair Arts Club ever since another royal, Prince Philip, the Duke of Edinburgh launched it’s opening in October…

Perhaps Gwyneth just loves being chummy with members of the royal family?

After all, she does espouse a more elevated manner of lifestyle on her blog, and is always after her readers to buy this luxury clothing item or that luxury clothing accessory.

Gwyneth, of course, made sure she was in full view of the paparazzi while flashing around a bag of Topshop swag she scored from Topshop head honcho Philip Green, who she chatted with at the club. And Prince Harry made his usual unobtrusive exit out the back to move on to the next night spot on his list.

Wonder what Coldplay frontman Chris Martin makes of his wife’s royal society friends…

Aawww. What a sweet guy!

In his recent interview with CBS Sunday Morning, Chris revealed that his relationship with Gwyneth was the only serious one he’d ever had.  When the host, Anthony Mason, commented that his going out with the “Contagion” star was “quite a leap,” the singer joked:

“It’s a big leap? What, from being a loser, to going out with an Oscar winner?”

Unlike Chris, Gwyneth has been in a few serious relationships, most notably with Brad Pitt, whom she was engaged to for a few months back in the late 90s. She then went on to date Ben Affleck for a few years before meeting her rock star hubby at a concert in 2002. Gwyneth and Chris later tied the knot after a year of dating.

Chris, apparently, feels very fortunate to have married Gwyneth, his wife of eight years. He said:

“It’s a giant leap. Let’s face it: it’s like winning the lottery.”

That’s a really sweet thing to say. It’s no wonder the guy’s such an amazing songwriter!

Granted, it isn’t the same as performing for the Queen herself…or *swoon* Princes William and Harry, but Gwyneth‘s probably one step away from being awarded The Most Excellent Order of the British Empire (even if she isn’t British…but she did do a credible British accent for “Shakespeare In Love”, didn’t she?) and be known around town as Dame Gwyneth Paltrow, if you please. Nice feather on her upper crust cap, eh? It’ll increase traffic on her blog, Goop, in any case.

Entertainment news noticed that Gwyneth brought along pal, Cameron Diaz, who’s presently recovering from her breakup with Yankees slugger Alex Rodriguez. Maybe Gwyn thought twirling champagne glasses and making eyes at the elderly Prince Philip would do Cam a world of good. We mean, hey Cam, becoming mistress to royalty is better than tagging along after a baseball player who insists you pump iron to get bionic arms like his ex, Madonna, eh?

So we’re thinking maybe Gwyneth is likely to be a mainstay during high profile charity events, particularly those given by their Royal Highnesses. So if you’ve a yen to hobnob with royal representatives of the British empire…do give Gwyneth a call…

Gwyneth ditched her usual elegant style and tried a more eclectic look with a black two-piece Emilio Pucci gown that showed off her perfectly toned midriff.

The “Contagion” actress kept the makeup simple and wore her hair in its usual stick-straight hairstyle. She accessorized her outfit with black-and-white diamond and platinum Neil Lane jewelry.

Gwyneth does look really sexy… but she kind of looks like a belly dancer, doesn’t she? It’s not really a good look for an awards show.

Maybe she should have just stuck with elegant and classy.

Do you think Gwyneth looks hot or not?

What do you think? Is Gwyneth’s fashion choice hot or not?

Gwyneth was gorgeous (as always) in a bright orange Lanvin dress at Wednesday night’s Coach dinner—which was thrown in her honor—at The Arts Club in London. The “Contagion” star paired the brightly colored frock with red peep-toe booties and a gray and brown snakeskin Coach clutch.

According to recent Hollywood news, the stunning fashionista is the new face of Coach’s 70th Anniversary ad campaign. She is currently in London to help launch the company’s Bond Street flagship store.

What do you think of Gwyneth’s colorful dress?

Lara Lundstrom Clarke tells star news she was hurrying for work that day and jaywalked across the street to catch her train to work at Baseline Financial Services on the 77^th floor of tower 2 where she was an account manager.

Luckily for her, Gwyneth was on her way home from yoga class and stepped on the brakes just as Clarke crossed the street.

“I was on the way home and it was the morning of September 11 — not that I knew at the time what that meant — and a girl was jaywalking across the street and we kind of both stopped at the same time and waited a really long time,”

Gwyneth recalls.

Eventually, Paltrow waved at Clarke to go ahead and cross, but the several-minute delay made Clarke miss her train, and she had to catch the next one on the subway, making her late for work and subsequently far away from the attack on the towers where four of her co-workers were killed.

“If I had made that train, I would have been at my desk on the 77^th floor of 2 World Trade Center,”

Clarke shudders.

Gwyneth is touched and thankful to have saved a life, inadvertent though it was.

“Ten years later, I got a letter from her saying that she had been late for work to catch her train to go down to the World Trade Center. It was an extraordinary story and all I could think about is all of the people who had experiences like that that day. I think a lot of fates were changed that day obviously and I am very humbly happy to be a part of her story.”

Gwyneth was very elegant in a pale pink floor-length Prada dress, which she paired with a Prada hard-case clutch and a pair of patent leather Prada platforms (both in the same shade of pale pink as her dress).

As for accessories, the fashionable actress opted to leave all her bling at home, save for an intricate pair of diamond Bvlgari earrings.

Gwyneth kept her silky blonde hair down and accentuated her gorgeous features with simple makeup, which she topped off with an old rose lipstick.

Bravo, Gwyneth! You were ravishing!

Hollywood gossip websites crowded over the list, taking note of all the items we all have to aspire for, you know, just so we can be livin’ la vida Gwyneth:

1. De Gournay Hand-Painted Wallpaper

2. Seasonal Flowers

3. Darren Almond’s Photography

“His arresting, large-scale artwork brings a sense of majesty to a room.”

4. Charles Edwards Star Lanterns

5. Antonio Lupi Baia Tub

“It’s in the middle of my bedroom—perfect for a relaxing wind-down and for bathing the kids.”

6. Juxtaposed: Religion Shelf

“Built-in slots hold holy books—including the Qur’an, Bible, and Tao Te Ching—all at the same level (which is how I like to think about religion).”

7. Clothbound Penguin Classics

“These gorgeous editions make the books so tempting to pick up, again and again. The ultimate cure for sore muscles.”

8. YUBZ Retro Handset

“A handset cuts down on cellphone radiation. I use this one for my BlackBerry calls.”

Um…we don’t really get how Penguin Classic books can be a cure for sore muscles. But then, that’s Gwyneth. Maybe her set comes with half a dozen live ones that pitter-patter down her back in their flipper feet while she reads.

So forget your chapsticks, your fuzzy bunny slippers, or your really strong cup of joes in the morning. Post this list to your fridge and dream your way to a GOOP life…

According to a source:

“When Lindsay was told she wasn’t allowed backstage because her pass didn’t allow it, she threw a complete wobbler. She protested to the people running the guest list, hoping they’d change their minds but it was still a firm ‘no’. She got even more angry when she found out fellow actress Kate Bosworth was there mingling with Gwyneth Paltrow and the band. In the end she got so fed up, she stormed out.”

Well what else would Coldplay frontman Chris Martin do but protect his wife from the clutches of a hard-partying harpy seeking revenge?

And besides, its not as if Lindsay‘s still on the A-list, or anything…

Gwyneth showed off her gorgeous body by posing for a topless photo that shows her in nothing but a sparkly Louis Vuitton necklace, a pair of dangling earrings, and fishnet stockings.

Her perfectly trim figure took a lot of effort and determination to achieve, as she reveals that she gets up at 4:30AM every day to do her workouts. Gwyneth admits:

“I’m really not a morning person at all… It is just sheer determination. I’m very strict with myself. When I practice six days a week and eat clean food, I feel much better.”

It’s definitely paid off, hasn’t it? Gwyneth looks absolutely incredible! And to think she once said she didn’t have a nice body…

What do you guys think of Gwyneth’s svelte body?

Apart from planting her herb garden in preparation for summer, Hollywood gossip news reports that Gwyneth‘s been recommending several chic wardrobe staples for Spring. Prominent label pieces like a Chloe silk jacket ($1840) and a Stella McCartney jersey tank dress ($785) are featured on her blog, with Gwyneth appropriately modeling inside them.

And why not? Gwyneth says they’re

“great pieces which are versatile enough to wear to the office and during your summer leisure time.”

At the very least, you should be able to afford those J. Crew denim cut-off shorts. They’re a steal at only $48.

So Make, Go, Get, Do, Be, and See. Your new Gwyneth Paltrow Spring picks are waiting for you to spend half your annual household budget on…

Her biggest flaw? Below the waist, she says:

“I never thought that I’d be considered to have a good body. I was bony up top and kind of dumpy on the bottom. But my trainer, Tracy Anderson, completely changed my legs, butt, arms and stomach. I feel better than ever, too. When Tracy met me, she said that I had a long, square butt that she was going to redesign, and I was, like, ‘Yeah? Good luck. The amazing thing is, she was right! And it’s still changing!”

So how much work goes into changing Paltrow‘s “square” backside. She claims to do 45 minutes of cardio and 45 minutes of strength training five days a week.

Whew. I got tired just writing that.

Is Jennifer doing this because Gwyneth Paltrow got good reviews in the country business and she wanted to try her own hand at singing?

The movie, based on real events that took place in Goree Prison, is about eight talented female inmates who formed a country-western band; embraced by the public, the women were ultimately pardoned.

Aniston will reportedly co-produce the musical project (which has been bouncing around Hollywood since at least 2007), with big names such as Kelly Rowland, Pam Tillis and Ellen Pompeo attached as co-stars in recent months.

Sounds interesting…but can that cast gel and get the movie some buzz? Would you be interested in hearing Jennifer sing?

Paltrow has been showing off her singing talents at many huge events lately. We heard Gwyneth at the Country Music Awards, at the Grammys which I absolutely thought was the best with Gwyneth doing a duet with Cee Lo Green to perform Cee Lo’s “Forget you” — the same song we heard her singing as a teacher substitute on Glee. And Paltrow also performed the nominated song “Coming Home” at the Oscars.

A source told the NY Post that people who have heard Paltrow’s music described it as “country pop.”

Although the financial terms of the deal were not released, but it is believed that Paltrow’s music deal is worth $900,000.

Don’t forget to catch Paltrow back on Glee Tuesday night to reprise her role of substitute teacher Holly Holiday.

Paltrow must have gotten some a lot of training from her husband, Chris Martin who is lead singer of Coldplay.

Will you be buying Gwyneth’s album when it comes out?

Hathaway on the other hand was paid $750,000 to wear Tiffany & Co. jewelry. Must be nice, right?

Wow. Just wow. Doesn’t that mid-six figure range seem like A LOT of money to wear jewelry from established brands? Just think how much more productive our world would be if Tiffany and Louis Vuitton donated all that cash to charity.

Just makes you think.

Gwyneth, the Oscar-winning actress turns singer joined Cee Lo and the puppets after the first few verses. This was Cee Lo and Gwyneth’s first public performance together. If you didn’t know Gwyneth did this number when she was a cameo on Glee and immediate grabbed tabloid headlines. Now it seems the world is discovering Gwyneth hidden vocal talents. She sang great tonight, didn’t she?

Did you like Cee Lo, Gwyneth and the puppets? Who was your favorite performer tonight?
