What is with all the Gwyneth Paltrow hate?

I am getting so annoyed right now. She was named World’s Most Beautiful Woman by People Magazine and suddenly everyone thinks it’s okay to insult her by calling her “ugly, pasty, stick thin, etc” as well as propagating the idea…

I am in love with this post. If the media aren’t bashing Gwyneth for getting voted the World’s Most Beautiful Woman, they’re bashing her for being thin. If they’re not bashing her for being thin, they’re bashing her for ‘not feeding her kids.’ If they’re not bashing her for that, they bash her about GOOP - can they not get it through their heads that all GP is doing is giving advice and informing her subscribers about things she believes are interesting. Yes, she advertises expensive things but for god sake she makes millions, she’s hardly going to talk about things from the fucking pound shop. And if they’re not bashing her for GOOP, they bash her about her ‘failing marriage’ because her and Chris choose to keep their lives relatively private. And I was so annoyed yesterday when I read an article on  the Daily Mail (who by the way change their views on Gwyneth with every single article they publish) that scoffed at her for being in public with natural hair - “Is that you Gwyneth? ‘Most Beautiful’ actress barely recognisable with wet hair and no make-up as she leaves home.” And to top it all of, everything that comes out of her mouth has a negative spin put on it or her words are twisted. And I saw another article which really annoyed me where the website looked down their noses at Gwyneth because she apparently refuses to talk to publishers who are horrible about her - and this is bad why? That would be like me going to make polite conversation with the biggest arse in school. NO. And what has annoyed me most was when people started accusing her of pretending to have a miscarriage. I’m sorry but that is twisted.

Gwyneth seems like one of the most humble, friendly celebrities in today. Unlike many other actresses she keeps close ties with people she’s worked with and likes to remain friends with them. And she is clearly a good mother and wife and it is disgusting that the media portray her otherwise. And finally, she is not unhealthily thin. She is clearly thin built and follows a healthy diet and exercises. I am so sick of reading hate and if I’m honest, the media are a huge pile of corrupted shit.
