A Slumping Mad Men Heads to Its Season Finale
Who Should Play Christian & Anastasia In 'Fifty Shades Of Grey'?
On a recent evening in New York, a group of FFOGs (Famous Friends of Gwyneth) turned out for a dinner party to celebrate the actress, singer and blogger's debut cookbook, 'My Father's Daughter.' New Yorker scribe Lizzie Widdicombe was there to rub shoulders with guests like Jay-Z, Cameron Diaz, Alex Rodriguez and the Seinfelds and to document exactly how Gwyneth is not just like us.It is first worth noting that Paltrow's husband, Coldplay frontman Chris Martin, was not nearly as psyched as the other guests to sample his wife's duck ragout. According to the New Yorker write-up, Martin arrived cranky and a publicist warned, "he doesn't want to talk."
It's a little odd when your hubby doesn't want to talk at a party promoting your project, no?
Thankfully for Gwyneth, everybody else wanted to talk.

Is anyone else sick of Gwenyth? She's everywhere! The talent does not match the exposure. I'm just sayin'....

I imagine this marriage won't last. She talks too much about how perfect and wonderful everything is and she's superwoman etc. It seems she is trying to convince herself and her own husband. If she has to gloat that much there are probably some serious issues. Notice her frozen smile...sad

Chris is full of it! He loves it! He loves to scope out the dudes!

What married couple does not hate something the other does -- but that is not the same as hating the person. Why does the media continue writing this junk? Get a real writing job writing about something worth reading about OR find another job. Leave people who just happen to be better-known alone. They are just trying to live their lives -- for better or for worse.

Geesh.....say that you hate parties, Christmas, or don't personally want kids, and you're treated like the anti-Christ. Some people just like the quiet life and aren't social....there's nothing wrong with that!

Your so right "Good Grief" well said.
something just hit me about "celebs"... they are biotch and moan about not having enough time for family. Maybe if they would all stick to ONE CAREER, which is TOO MUCH ANYWAY, they would have time for their kids....

Why does it seem that talented people seem to always attract losers? Maybe it's me, but I don't understand this whole "in-crowd" thing...and wouldn't want to live like that anyhow. Invite people to a dinner party only to hear this shallow stuff? No wonder her husband wasn't interested; maybe he is sick of the crowd's attitude.
So much for "friends"....

The Only Thing Chris Hates is Waking up next to a WOMAN.

Paltrow is such a total phony. She always has that plastered-on smile and she's always telling everyone how wonderful her life is. I wonder if she's trying to convince us - or herself! As for her cookbook, honestly, who the hell cares?!

Gwen's parties sound a bit stale, boring and food wise (CRAPPY)
bring on the wine, BBQ the Steaks and bring on the strippers!
Oh! Gwen does not approve.....betcha her husband won't mind!

Truth be told, I'm sure all the guests were bored. Not just Chris.

How`s this one... I`d crawl a mile on my hands and knees just to through a rock at the garbage truck that takes away her tampons!
Kat2988,
Jay-Z and Beyonce have been good friends with Gwyneth and Chris for YEARS... in fact, G & C were at J & B's wedding (and it wasn't a very big wedding).

...Because when you're a prestigious rich snob, it's all the rage to have at least two black friends.
