I have enjoyed Ms Paltrow in everything I've seen her in. I know she's a 'problematic' actor but - I like her acting, and love her as Pepper.

I actually feel sorry for Gwyneth Paltrow. Being a Holywood actress must be such a head fuck. Having to desperately try and discover the fountain of youth over and over again so you'll keep getting parts. It always seems to push them one of two ways: either to the plastic surgeon or into the hands of conman 'gurus'. Paltrow seems to have fallen pretty far into the whack job all natural sphere. But I do feel sorry for her.

SA that was supposed to be a comment on the secret, not a reply to tabaqui. Sorry, tabaqui.

No worries.

There are definite drawbacks to being in the public eye as she is, that's for sure, and to being a woman in Hollywood.

She makes an awful lot of money off the nutty, occasionally dangerous and expensive things she recommends to other women. That's why I don't feel too terribly sorry for her.

She's a privileged white woman who benefits from nepotism. Of course she's going to fall into whack job shit, she needs something of an identity.

That makes two of us, at least.

*high fives*

I really don't know much about her, other than that she's pretty out of touch with reality, but I like Pepper a lot and many of her other roles too.

Yeah, there's people where I can't separate their shittiness from their acting, but with Paltrow I can for some reason. Maybe because GOOP is preying on a wealthy demographic that isn't going to suffer?

I find her pretty inoffensive as Pepper.

Actually, I find her pretty inoffensive regarding anything non-GOOP-related, and with GOOP she doesn't make me mad, just makes me laugh.

She is so gorgeous with that hair color, her usual blonde ages and washes her out so much.

I hear you, OP lol. I'm definitely not a fan of hers.

lol same

Really like her as Pepper especially when I found out a lot of her scenes with RDJ are improv.

Is the middle pic Photoshopped or...?? Something seems very off with her arm.

She's good in many roles, and the biggest criticism people seem to have is that she's out of touch and a little nutty. The amount of hatred she gets for that just reeks of misogyny to me, frankly.

The other two are stills whereas the middle one appears to be a poster or promotional picture of some sort, so I would assume it is heavily photoshopped.

Note: she also makes a profit off of promoting pseudoscience. People come down hard on Jenny McCarthy for her anti-vaxxer stance, and AFAIK she doesn't even have an anti-vaxx product line. But Paltrow has an entire website and business built on pseudoscience. Really expensive pseudoscience.

No shit, and when her dumbass products that no one actually can afford and everyone just mocks have the same effect on public health that vocal anti-vaxxers do, I'll try to care. Meanwhile I'll just continue to wonder why her widely-known-to-be-unreliable side hustle gets her more hate than, say, some sexual predators in Hollywood receive.

I don't think it's misogynist to be annoyed by a woman who thinks it's somehow healing to shove rocks up her vag.

I think it's misogynist when you compare the level of criticism and mocking she gets for that to the free passes many male actors get for much worse behavior, including some co-stars within the MCU.

My feelings about Gwyneth Paltrow definitely color my feelings about Pepper, sadly.

This is me, but with ScarJo and Black Widow. Normally Black Widow is a type of character I'd love, but I can't stand ScarJo.
