Gaunt GOOPmistress Gwyneth Paltrow is at it again! Remember a few years back, when she got in trouble for saying this?
“I love the English lifestyle, it’s not as capitalistic as America. People don’t talk about work and money, they talk about interesting things at dinner.
“I like living here because I don’t fit into the bad side of American psychology. The British are much more intelligent and civilized than the Americans.”
Yeah, Americans are such dumb savages that they’ve made Gwyneth Paltrow rich enough to live well in any country she chooses. What were you thinking, Americans?
Paltrow, realizing she’d just taken a shot at her own gravy train, then backtracked as well as she could in those 7-inch heels she prefers. She insisted she was misquoted, she was “proud to be an American”, and other lies.
And the way you can tell they were lies is that she just keeps saying this stuff:
Gwyneth Paltrow says Spain has “became a second home.”
“It is so different from the United States. It seemed to have a history, and the buildings are years and years and years old. Here in the United States an old building is about 17 (years old), and over there it’s from 500 B.C., it’s incredible,” she tells the Associated Press.
“Also, the way people live over there. They seem to enjoy life a little bit more,” she continued. “They aren’t running around as much as in New York. They enjoy time with the family. They don’t always have their BlackBerry on.”
“Years and years and years old.” Kind of like her. Physically, anyway.
Let’s make a deal, GOOPy: You stay away from America (or at least New York, which you seem to think is the same thing), and we’ll keep staying away from movie theaters with your name on the marquee.
Well, unless Iron Man’s in it. Iron Man’s awesomeness cancels out Gwyneth Paltrow’s utter unawesomeness. Does England have its own Iron Man? Does Spain? Yeah, okay, but their suits of armor can’t even fly without using a catapult, and the landings son una puta.
Actually, white Americans (the ones you would most reasonably compare to the British) have on average about 1-2 IQ points on the Brits.
I went to England a few times. People running around all over the place ~ buying, selling, changing money ~ they even had gambling machines where you put those big ol' English pennies in and turn 'em to see if you could get MORE money.
Really kind of tacky!

It’s a family tradition. Her father (Bruce) was one of the most hated monsters in show business. But he was just evil, not stupid.
Anyone know why they call her “GOOPy”?
Yes Gwyneth, you ignorant slut!
It's especially incredible because the oldest architecture I can think of in Spain, are the Roman aqueducts, built in the 1st or 2nd Century - AD!
You're only 600 or so years off ... close enough for a dumb actress I suppose ...
It can only be a name her 12 nannies gave her.
Really? Well, gollee. I'd never have thought them there European countries were any older than the 1940s. Isn't that when the U.S. saved their sorry asses so they could keep their history and buildings???
G and P being her initials?? GP - Goop - Goopy? Kinda like a Jeep, but without the charm.
She thinks snobbishness equals superiority.
Speak for yourself honey... Methinks you are just looking for an excuse not to shave your legs... ugh!!

Yeah Gwyneth, I know - I heard exact same pratter when I was 13 years old from classmates who made their first trip overseas
Let’s grow up a little, shall we?
Well, since she has probably never been anywhere in the US but Hollywood & New York she probably thinks everyone lives like she does. Clueless.
That's for the tourist trade (like you) to gawk at. Have you ever tried living in one?
Plus there’s that 17 years comment...the town I grew up in in Maine was founded in 1631. The town I live in now in Illinois wasn’t founded until 1837, but the first two places I lived after moving here were built in 1900 and 1912.
She’s only made one good film, Emma, over a decade ago. Who the heck cares what she thinks? Shut up Gwyneth.
