Gwyneth Paltrow Talks GOOP Thu, 30-Jul-2009
Gwyneth Paltrow's weekly newsletter, GOOP, is a “big success” according to Paltrow. The actress says, “It’s crazy…crazy! I just love it. Corporate America is knocking at my door…’Will you hawk my product?’”
Her personal project, which comes from her initials G.P. is all about being clean. “It started in such an organic way. People ask me, ‘What is it? What are you doing?’ And I don’t know. I did it, am doing it…and love doing it.”
And another huge plus about it? It’s free! Continuing to dish, the “Shakespeare In Love” actress says, “People are so grateful that it’s free. It’s just nice to share what you have. And I have all this great information.”
And as far as other projects right now, Paltrow wants to stick to what she loves. “People want me to do all this other stuff. But right now, I just really love doing the site. I love thinking about the letters, what I’m going to write about, what kind of information we can put in there.”
Just how much money could she raise for her charity? “We’ll do something and give it all back,” she told. The site does have two major rules. “No bribes. Also, I won’t say anything negative. If I eat somewhere or stay somewhere and it’s horrible, I won’t talk about it.”
And although she is writing on green and clean loving, living and cooking, she is also board member of Robin Hood - which is an organization in part founded by the late John F. Kennedy Jr., raising money from successful New Yorkers and donating to causes like Children of the City.
“They’re really changing lives for kids in New York City at the poverty level or below. They do amazing work. I’m from New York, so anytime I get approached to help in a great organization, I can never say no.” |
