I've seen Gwyn's Bippies - that's all that matters.

But then again, anyone who's seen Shakespeare in Love has too

I figure most Hollywood types are narcissistic anyway....I just try to avoid viewing stuff like that.

What bugs me is the news media hyping stuff that celebs do or say. To me it isn't news. An internet website....no big to me.

Personally, I find it no different than anyone else's blog.

I'm all in favor of a difference of opinion. I just think the site is inane. And to clarify: I do not associate "Goop" with male seminal fluid alone, rather it brings to mind the entire picture I painted earlier, beatings and all. Heh.

I do think Ms. Paltrow has something of value to share with the world, I just happen to think it involves her performances and not her personal lifestyle choices.

Don't act like an asshole, Gwyneth. Just act.

Then why not just have a blog? I'm not entirely sure why she would launch something until she actually had something to say. Every section says the same thing, with most if not all of the content repeated. I produce websites for a living, so I'm picky.

I love Neil Gaiman's website and journal. I love visiting James Gunn's MySpace page. I get the need for a personal website if you are an individual or company offering services, or an artist showcasing her work. If Paltrow's hippie Martha Stewarty "My Life as Art" site actually had content, I might feel differently. But it's a poorly planned teaser site. She could have said everything she needed to say in one paragraph as an introduction to a full website to come.

Instead, what you get is a site full of nothing substantial but stinks of"self-righteous-help" guide. Bah. It's funny.

Maybe we should send her some content?

Or the LoT starts its own lifestyle website.

Wait. That's kinda what LoT is already. Swank this, world!

The internet is the ultimate stage for the self-absorbed. I'm with you, EH. Totally lame.

Too bad we just added to her traffic. She must feel justified.

Oddly enough I've never thought of THAT as "goop" -- a rousing "Oh yeah baby, goop on me!" or "let's goop together, mmhmm" would probably send me into hysterical laughter.

Then again, I keep reading this thread as "GOP: The most ridiculous celebrity vanity project ever", which is perhaps applicable to Palin but is otherwise confusing. ;)

And Gwyneth still takes the prize for "Actress Who Most Closely Resembles a Wildebeest". :rolleyes:

When I think of Goop, this is what comes to mind:
