A new biography by Amy Odell offers an unflinching look at Gwyneth Paltrow’s life and career, from Hollywood royalty to wellness mogul. “Gwyneth: The Biography,” out now, traces the Oscar-winning actor’s journey from childhood — as the daughter of actor Blythe Danner and director-producer Bruce Paltrow — to addressing the infamous allegation that she stole the “Shakespeare in Love” script from Winona Ryder. Odell draws on more than 200 interviews with people who know or have worked with Paltrow. Notably, Paltrow herself did not participate in the interviews.

Variety has reached out to Paltrow’s rep for comment.

Read on for 11 of the biggest revelations from “Gwyneth: The Biography.”

1. Paltrow’s father, director-producer Bruce Paltrow, was furious when she signed with her first manager, Joanne Horowitz, who, at the time, repped a then-unknown Kevin Spacey.

Shortly after graduating from high school in 1990, Paltrow appeared in a stage production of “The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn,...

Gwyneth Paltrow and Brad Pitt, aka the former “It couple of Hollywood”, had a short-lived run with each other, and now, a new biography is spilling all the secrets.

Pitt and Paltrow began dating soon after they met on the set of ‘Se7en’. They were all set to tie the knot when the former proposed to the latter in 1996, only for them to part ways a few months later.

Coming back to the biography, author Amy Odell is releasing her book titled ‘Gwyneth: A Biography‘, which is all set to come out in a few days on July 29. In the book, Odell recalls a few red flags in the high-profile romance.

Pancakes weren’t the only thing flipping on Gwyneth Paltrow’s latest Instagram reel this weekend; fans were, too, but over a curious detail.

The Iron Man actress-turned-wellness guru took a break from her Goop empire to show off her cooking chops, whipping up a cozy batch of pancakes topped with a generous amount of strawberry sauce on top. But it wasn’t the sweet recipe that stole the spotlight.

Eagle-eyed fans quickly zeroed in on a mysterious, round patch spotted on her left arm as she raised her hands early in the video. Given her reputation for taking health very seriously, the patch had viewers guessing, was it a medical gadget, or just a quirky Goop accessory? Fans are concerned!

What About Bob? has turned out to be one of the more enduring Bill Murray comedies, as much for its hilariously petty behind-the-scenes stories as the movie laughs that still hold up. Murray, who’s on the record as hating his experiences shooting films like Scrooged, sounds like he had fun on this one. “The script wasn’t nearly as annoying as I could be, so I had to improvise a lot in the movie. And even what you eventually see in the movie isn’t close to how really annoying I can be when I put my mind to it,” he told Deseret News, as reported by Ultimate Classic Rock. “It was quite liberating to play someone like that.”

Murray famously got under Richard Dreyfuss’ skin on that movie (Dreyfuss called him an “Irish drunken bully”), but one actor Murray didn’t get to pester was future Oscar winner Gwyneth Paltrow.

This April marks the publication of the third edition of one of the best books ever written on directing, Bethany Rooney and Mary Lou Belli‘s “Directors Tell the Story.” A comprehensive guide to the hundreds of aesthetic, managerial, and logistical problems a director faces every day on set and how best to solve them, its strength comes from the position of authority from which Rooney and Belli write — between them, they’ve got over 75 years of experience on set as episodic television directors.

Rooney alone has hundreds of hours of television on her resume thanks to a career that stretches back to 1985 and her big break on the medical drama “St. Elsewhere.” Since then, she has worked in virtually every genre imaginable, from comic book shows (“Arrow”) and teen dramas to action, horror, procedurals, and dramedies.

Rooney stopped by IndieWire’s Filmmaker Toolkit podcast for a wide-ranging conversation about her career and her process,...

The Harvey Weinstein episode has been a dark age in Hollywood’s eccentric and colorful history. Throughout the megaproducer’s scandalous career, he has preyed on actresses, starting from Gwyneth Paltrow to Angelina Jolie. The lawsuit that unceremoniously ended his career finally landed him in prison in February 2020.

However, trauma often lingers even after much time has passed. Despite shredding the hopes and dreams of many young and wide-eyed debutantes in the field, Weinstein’s actions remained unheard of and unspoken among friends and family.

Now, in the post-Me Too era, actresses have been more confident about voicing their own stories regarding their one fateful encounter with Harvey Weinstein.

In her early 20s, Gwyneth Paltrow had already found a footing in Hollywood as the daughter of Hollywood power couple Bruce Paltrow and Blythe Danner.

Gwyneth Paltrow is reflecting on her family.

While celebrating Hanukkah with Noa Tishby, the 52-year-old actress and Goop founder revealed that her mother Blythe Danner and late father Bruce Paltrow caused some scandal with their romance.

“My mother’s Christian, my father’s Jewish,” she explained.

“It’s interesting — I grew up in a time in the ’70s where interfaith marriage was still kind of a big deal. And so it was really hard for both of my parents’ parents that they were marrying each other.”

“It was a bit scandalous. Nobody was happy about it,” she continued, adding, “They definitely grew to accept it later in life and kind of let go of all of that.”

“I felt so fortunate because I got to grow up with these two very different worlds and very different faiths. I always felt an incredible pull to...

Author and activist Noa Tishby has enlisted Gwyneth Paltrow to usher in the first night of Hanukkah as part of her #BringOnTheLight video series.

Tishby, who wrote two best-selling books, 2021’s Israel: A Simple Guide to the Most Misunderstood Country on Earth and 2024’s Uncomfortable Conversations With a Jew (co-authored with Emmanuel Acho), and Paltrow, the Oscar-winning actress and Goop entrepreneur, bonded over their Jewish faith and traditions. Tishby’s eight-night-long campaign is centered on the message of Jewish resilience.

“When I approached Gwyneth with this campaign, she was thrilled and deeply moved to join, and I knew we had something truly special,” said Tishby.

For the first candle-lighting video, available now on YouTube along with Tishby’s social media handles, Paltrow recounts Hanukkah celebrations with her father, Bruce Paltrow, and her grandparents on Long Island, sharing that her own family tree contains 17 generations of Rabbis.

Police dramas were flourishing in the 1970s (and later parodied in the 1980s) thanks to "Dragnet" when television writer Robert L. Collins hit upon what counted as a genius notion at the tail end of the Richard M. Nixon administration: what if instead of "policeman," "policewoman?" NBC said "Show us," and Collins responded with the buzzy "Police Woman" starring Angie Dickinson as Sergeant Suzanne "Pepper" Anderson.

"Police Woman" was about as progressive as you could expect from an hour-long network drama in the '70s when it was rare for a drama of any genre to be headed up by a woman. Once a week, Dickinson struck a quasi-feminist figure as an ultra-capable officer of the law with a penchant for dressing in tight-fitting shirts in pants. At least once she went undercover in a swimsuit. And as she complained to the press years later, the writers liked to have...

Gwyneth Paltrow has been a modern fashion and lifestyle icon in the Hollywood landscape, especially after the actress’ legendary picture-perfect relationship with Brad Pitt that birthed countless trends and unforgettable photos in the ’90s. But the power couple was only one minuscule part of Paltrow’s stalwart presence in the industry and her classical beauty.

As the industry legends Bruce Paltrow and Blythe Danner’s daughter, the Shakespeare in Love actress has already been stapled with the label of a nepo-baby. However, the actress has carved out a platform for herself and her fans with the privilege that her background granted her. Now a highly proficient businesswoman, Gwyneth Paltrow can proudly boast of a career well-served and a life well-lived, if only for a few alterations via plastic surgery.

Addiction is a terrible thing that has ruined lives. From alcohol and d*ugs to smoking, many celebrities such as Jennifer Aniston have come out to talk about their past addictions and how they successfully recovered from them. People of influence talking about their flaws and struggles go a long way in getting common people to get help.

The Centre for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has revealed that in 2018, the losses caused to the USA’s economy due to cigarette smoking were more than $600 billion. Over 480,000 Americans reportedly die due to cigarette smoking every year. Here are five celebrities who opened up about their smoking habits and how they quit them.

This is a practice in which people are focused on eating or not eating at certain times, regardless of an impulse to eat.

We are fascinated by how Scarlett Johansson’s ‘Black Widow’ and Ryan Reynolds’ ‘Deadpool’ appear to share a unique connection that extends beyond their Marvel roles. The actors were once a couple whose marriage headed toward single-hood after a three-year journey (2008–2011). It’s a tale as old as time—or at least as longstanding as the superhero genre—where, despite the duo’s detour from marital bliss, they conquered post-divorce waters.

Despite minor memory lapses among friends (such as Gwyneth Paltrow’s during her Goop podcast) when Johansson’s matrimonial tally needed a gentle reminder, the former couple’s story remains one of mutual respect & admiration. After all, when the Black Widow star doled out plaudits to Reynolds, describing him as “a good guy,” she was painting silver linings on a past chapter. Hence, she proved that some stars...

Emma Roberts appeared on the “Table for Two” podcast (via Vanity Fair) and was asked whether becoming a “massive movie star” was a priority for her when she decided to follow in the career footsteps of her father, Eric Roberts, and her aunt, Julia Roberts. Not quite. Emma said that watching her aunt become an A-list superstar as a kid showed her how scary that level of fame can be.

“I saw very up close what that really looks like,” Roberts said. “It’s obviously fun and it’s great, but there is a part of it that’s really scary. So I’ve wanted to kind of carve my own path. … Fame has never been the goal, because fame at a certain level is kind of scary.”

“Even in my later teens, I was like, I never want my fame to outweigh my work,” she continued. “Because there’s...

Gwyneth Paltrow is addressing the “nepo baby” debate.

The whole debate all started last year when New York Magazine released an article about the tons of celebs that have parents, siblings, or other relatives in Hollywood and pointed out that it seemingly makes it easier for them to have access to opportunities that other people did not have.

If you didn’t know, Gwyneth, 51, is technically a “nepo baby” herself with her mom being two-time Emmy winning actress Blythe Danner and her late father Bruce Paltrow was a TV director.

In a new interview, Gwyneth called out all of the criticism surrounding the debate.

Iron Man star Gwyneth Paltrow might be eying the endgame of her acting career.

In an exclusive interview with Bustle, the Oscar-winning star who played Pepper Potts in the Marvel Cinematic Universe got candid about her family and aging in Hollywood. Among the stunning admissions that Paltrow made was when she was asked about advising fans when she reaches her twilight years. "I'll probably try, knowing myself. Or I might be like, 'F*ck this.' I might just disappear, and no one will ever see me again," Paltrow said. The actor followed up later in the interview by teasing her retirement by age 55, stating, "I'd be happy with that....I will literally disappear from public life. No one will ever see me again."

In an interview with Bustle, the idea of helping her daughter Apple, whom she shares with Coldplay frontman Chris Martin, came up but Paltrow says “She’s a very private person.”

Actress and Goop founder Gwyneth Paltrow uses her Academy Award to prop open a gate in her home.

No, really.

In her “73 Questions” video with Vogue, Paltrow took cameraman and host Joe Sabia through her lush garden and sprawling grounds around her house, where he caught the Oscar trophy in action stopping a big outdoor gate.

The moment occurs three minutes into the video, which you can watch above, after Paltrow has revealed her favorite cuss word — “f–k ass” — and after she sang a few bars of her favorite Coldplay song — “Life is for Living” — at the request of Sabia.

“My doorstop,” Paltrow said enthusiastically after Sabia angled the camera to the ground. “It works perfectly.”

Gwyneth Paltrow's name has become synonymous with both Hollywood's A-list and the contemporary wellness industry, but did you know that she's actually a nepo baby?

Her father, Bruce Paltrow, was a director and producer who happened to also be best friends with Steven Spielberg. Paltrow, to her credit, has seemingly wholeheartedly embraced the nepo-baby title; when InStyle posted a photo of Hailey Bieber wearing her "nepo baby" T-shirt, Paltrow wittily commented "I might need a few of these."

Her parents first met while working on a Broadway show in 1969, per People. They tied the knot in 1970 and welcomed Paltrow in 1972 and her brother Jake in 1975.

All is not fair in “Shakespeare in Love” and Oscars war.

Gwyneth Paltrow is looking back on her 1999 Best Actress win for “Shakespeare in Love” and the icy reception to her beating out fellow nominees like Judi Dench and Cate Blanchett.

Gwyneth Paltrow said on a recent episode of the “Call Her Daddy” podcast that her 1999 best actress Oscar win for “Shakespeare in Love” led to an unhealthy identity crisis. Paltrow was only 26 years old at the time when she won the Academy Award against the likes of Cate Blanchett (“Elizabeth”) and Meryl Streep (“One True King”).

On March 12, once the curtain comes down on the 95th Academy Awards at the Dolby Theatre, the must-stop afterparty will just be getting started for Oscar nominees — winners and losers alike. This year marks the 65th anniversary of the Governors Ball, but it wasn’t always a coveted invitation — or even a tradition. The first Academy Awards statuettes were handed out in 1929 at a banquet in the Blossom Room of the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel, but the annual banquet was discontinued during the war years and, by 1958, the ceremony had migrated farther down Hollywood Boulevard to the Pantages Theatre. This meant that once the show was over, the stars were left to fend for themselves. So that year, the Academy charged actor and future California senator George Murphy with chairing a post-Oscars dinner dance, which would take place at the Beverly Hilton hotel. Its venue has changed over the years, but...

Following the release of New York Magazine‘s end of year issue about Hollywood’s “nepo baby” boom, many within the industry have responded or added to the discourse surrounding the label applied to a new generation of stars who have famous parents. Among them is Kate Hudson, who spoke out about “the nepotism thing” in a recent interview with the Independent.

“I mean… I don’t really care,” said Hudson, who is the daughter of performers Goldie Hawn and Bill Hudson. “I look at my kids and we’re a storytelling family. It’s definitely in our blood. People can call it whatever they want, but it’s not going to change it.”

The star went on to say, “I actually think there are other industries where it’s [more common]. Maybe modelling? I see it in business way more than I see it in Hollywood. Sometimes I’ve been in...

With Hollywood’s so-called nepo babies being quite the topic of conversation this week, some celebrities took to social media to share their thoughts on the matter.

Their reactions come after a New York magazine story that was published online Monday dove into the invisible network of family ties that can give the children of celebrities an advantage in the industry.

Recently, especially in 2022, the offspring of notable names in Hollywood has become a popular talking point in viral videos across social media. Some content creators have produced series around nepo babies and their well-established parents.

After the New York article went viral, O’Shea Jackson Jr., the son of rapper, actor and filmmaker Ice Cube, said in a thread of tweets Tuesday that people who are a part of generational wealth and talent should “Embrace that shit. Because it’s something that’s been happening for centuries.

In an interview with People magazine, the Meet The Parents actor and mother of Gwyneth Paltrow and Jake Paltrow, revealed that she was diagnosed in 2018 with adenoid cystic carcinoma, an oral cancer that usually develops in the salivary glands. “I remember I looked up at heaven and said to Bruce, ‘Are you lonely up there?'” she says in the interview. “It’s a sneaky disease. But I’m fine and dandy now. And I’m lucky to be alive.”

Danner says she has undergone three surgeries for the cancer, the most recent in 2020 when the cancerous tissue was removed.

“Everyone is touched by cancer in some way,” she says, “but it’s unusual for a couple to have the same cancer.” She adds,...

Blythe Danner has revealed she is in remission after a battle with oral cancer.

In an interview with People magazine, the actress said “I’m fine and dandy now. And I’m lucky to be alive.” Her husband of 30 years, Hollywood director Bruce Paltrow, died in 2002 after battling oral cancer for several years.

The Meet the Parents star said she was diagnosed with adenoid cystic carcinoma, a rare form of oral cancer, and initially kept the news from her children, including Gwyneth Paltrow, the actress and lifestyle entrepreneur. “I wanted to forge ahead as a mother, and I didn’t want them to worry,” she recounted.

In 2020, Danner, after undergoing radiation and chemotherapy, went through a third operation to remove the cancerous tissue, which has allowed her to be in remission. She is doing advocacy work for the Oral Cancer Foundation, which raises...

Gwyneth Paltrow has praised her “strong” mother Blythe Danner after she opened up about her private years-long battle with oral cancer.

Danner spoke to People about her battle, revealing that she’s in remission after being diagnosed with the same disease in March 2018 that killed her husband Bruce Paltrow in 2002.

Danner didn’t tell her kids Gwyneth and Jake Paltrow for a while.

Paltrow said of when her mom finally told her about the diagnosis, “I was obviously very shocked. It was scary. And it felt really eerie because it was so similar [to my dad’s].”

“She went through it with so much grace,” the actress added. “I was amazed at how strong she was able to be.”

On Oct. 26, 1982, NBC introduced St. Elsewhere to TV audiences. The ensemble medical drama went on to run for six seasons on the network. The Hollywood Reporter’s original review, as included in a TeleVisions column, is below:

Passing in Review: St. Elsewhere (NBC, Tuesday, 10-11 p.m.) The critics are having a field day. “Well written,” they’ve called it. “Touching.” “Gritty.” And a variety of other words and phrases all meant to tell us that St. Elsewhere, the new hour-long slice-of-life medical drama on NBC, is topnotch television. They’ve compared it to that other prized hour of TV drama, Hill Street Blues. And well they should. Both come from Mtm Enterprises, and both have a similar type of stark realism base which at once repels and attracts — like much of reality. While Hill Street gets its story lines and plots from police life,...

Trailblazing medical drama series “St. Elsewhere” celebrates its 40th anniversary on October 26. Gold Derby recently gathered together 10 cast members of the NBC program for a special reunion. All episodes from the six-season original run are now available for streaming on Hulu.

The series never had the greatest of overall ratings but was saved time and again by the Peacock network due to its Emmy wins and nominations, plus excellent demographics among the 18-49 viewers who advertisers coveted. The show was set at the fictional Boston hospital St. Eligius (nicknamed St. Elsewhere because its rundown conditions), tackling topical medical subjects with unexpected deaths among the patients and staff members throughout the six seasons airing 1982-1988.

Hollywood actress Gwyneth Paltrow has opened up about what she really felt when she took home an Oscar at the age of 26.

In a new interview, the Pepper Potts depicter in ‘Iron Man’ says her mind was “f***ed up” by winning the Best Actress award, reports aceshowbiz.com.

Gwyneth, named Best Actress for her role in 1998’s ‘Shakespeare in Love’, made the admission as she discussed her family and her upcoming 50th birthday.

During an interview on CBS about getting the award, she said: “It’s crazy when I think about that now. At the time I thought I was, like, a full adult, you know?” When correspondent Tracy Smith asked, “what do you think that did to your mind?” the actress laughed, “f**king it up!”

The actress went on to say: “You know, to reach that kind of, like, the pinnacle at that age and have that much scrutiny and attention,...

Donald Glover spoke out on the difference between artists and entertainers…and the children of both.

During an interview with The Wall Street Journal Magazine, the “Atlanta” creator applauded Zoë Kravitz for her directorial debut with “Pussy Island,” which she also co-wrote.

“I know she feels the pressure,” Glover said of Kravitz’s need to be viewed as more than “the daughter of,” citing her parents Lenny Kravitz and Lisa Bonet’s respective fame. “There’s always a pressure that’s like, ‘I actually have to do something that’s good, because otherwise people will say it’s not because of me being creative.'”

The “Mr. and Mrs. Smith” showrunner continued, “A lot of artists think they’re artists but they’re actually entertainers. She’s actually somebody who is like, ‘No, I know when someone’s lying to me. I know when I actually look good. I know...

Gwyneth Paltrow is speaking out on privilege.

The daughter of Tony winner Blythe Danner and late director-producer Bruce Paltrow explained to fellow celebrity offspring Hailey Bieber (née Baldwin) that children of Hollywood have to work “twice as hard” to make it in the industry.

“I mean, look, I think it’s fair because as the child of somebody, you get access that other people don’t have, so the playing field is not level in that way,” Paltrow admitted during Bieber’s “Who’s In My Bathroom?” YouTube series. “However, I really do feel that once your foot is in the door which you unfairly got in, then you have to work almost twice as hard and be twice as good.”

The Academy Award winner continued, “People are ready to pull you down and say you don’t belong there and you’re only there because of your dad or...

“The Good Night” helmer Jake Paltrow returns to Karlovy Vary Intl. Film Festival with “June Zero,” his first foreign-language production. In the film – picked up for sales by ICM Partners and Films Boutique – he takes a closer look at the trial and execution of Nazi leader Adolf Eichmann, hanged in Israel in 1962.

“My father [television and film director and producer Bruce Paltrow, who died in 2002] was a World War II history obsessive. Some of my earliest memories of watching television are of ‘The World at War,’ which later became something we watched together every year. It was all deeply rooted in his Jewishness,” Paltrow tells Variety ahead of the film’s world premiere.

It was never his intention to focus solely on Eichmann, however, or the much-publicized trial, even though he still finds it “relevant and intriguing,” he says.

“I find it uninteresting and problematic to try and make a ‘character’ out of him. We’ve...

Gwyneth Paltrow and Brad Pitt agree: Everything happens for a reason. Which is why the former couple—who split in 1997—can joke about their breakup more than two decades after calling off their engagement. In a conversation featured on Gwyneth's Goop website, the Seven co-stars reflected on their personal history and Brad's bond with her late father Bruce Paltrow. "Okay, since it's almost Father's Day, I'm going to ask you about Bruce," Gwyneth, whose dad passed away in 2002, said. "I'll never forget when we were engaged and he came to me one day, his eyes full of tears, and he said, 'You know, I never really realized what they mean when they say...

Apple TV+'s new series "WeCrashed" is based on the true story of the rise and fall of Adam and Rebekah Neumann and their company, WeWork. But during the show, it's quickly mentioned that Rebekah is cousins with none other than Gwyneth Paltrow. The topic of Rebekah's more famous cousin frequently comes up for Rebekah (portrayed by Anne Hathaway), though Gwyneth herself is never actually shown on camera. The show leaves it unclear just how close the pair are in real life, so let's unpack what we do know about their actual relationship.

Rebekah was born Rebekah Paltrow in February 1978, making her six years younger than Gwyneth. Rebekah's dad, Bob Paltrow, was the brother of Gwyneth's dad, Bruce Paltrow, who worked as a film and television producer and director. Rebekah grew up on the East Coast, while Gwyneth's family was mostly California-based, but they were still involved in each other's lives.
