Style Gwyneth Paltrow and the status quo All kinds of celebrities showed up this weekend to speak at the Airbnb Open in LA. I checked out the website and I think the event was supposed to be about travel lifestyle? This is why Gwyneth Paltrow was invited. She’s lifestyle. And she travels a lot.

Celebrity Lifestyle Brands The goop Gift Guides 2016 Can I just complain again about how “goop” is styled, all lower case? It looks so stupid in the title. It’s an annual tradition. Every year for the last few years now, Gwyneth Paltrow’s goop releases a holiday gift guide. And every year, people lose their f-cking minds By Lainey • Nov 18, 2016 12:47 pm
Celebrity Lifestyle Brands John Mayer, Lifestyle Man-Boy When I read Gwyneth Paltrow’s interview in Lenny Letter, it reminded me of Leonardo DiCaprio. Or rather, Lainey’s characterization of Leonardo DiCaprio. You know how Lainey loves to refer to Leo’s STRUGGLE filming The Revenant? How he STRUGGLED? How that STRUGGLE won him an Oscar? Well this By Maria • Sep 21, 2016 04:05 pm
Celebrity Lifestyle Brands Goop Label Gwyneth Paltrow’s goop launched its very own clothing line today, goop Label. Even though both Vanity Fair and the NY Times are calling it Goop Label. You know what’s annoying about a brand with a lower case name, “goop”? It’s hard to find consistency in the way By Lainey • Sep 12, 2016 11:29 am

Celebrity Lifestyle Brands Drew Barrymore, talk show host? Variety reported yesterday that Drew Barrymore may be in discussions to host her own talk show.

Celebrity Real Estate This is Where the (Artisanal) Magic Happens When Goop’s “cribz” edition turned up in my inbox, I was very interested to see how Casa Gwyneth would look. What’s so fun/infuriating about Goop and GP is the great personal nuggets that go beyond her workout and recipes – like an Anger Detox (courtesy of Brad’s By Maria • Jun 20, 2016 12:43 pm
Models Kate Moss makes a boyfriend point Earlier this week, there was a headline circulating about Kate Moss dating Jake Curtis, the son of Love Actually director Richard Curtis, who is 18 years old.

TV Updates Singing Lifestyle Blondes Kate Hudson supported her ma at the annual Goldie’s Love In For Kids the other night. I don’t know what Goldie’s wearing but it’s amazing and I won’t hear a word against it. As for Kate, at one point during the event, she got up By Lainey • May 09, 2016 10:22 am
Legal issues The Honest Formula You know where we are with The Honest Company? They have so many lawsuits that Racked catalogued them -- read it here.

Break Ups Gwyneth 40th software upgrade Forty to me doesn’t mean what I used to think it meant. Which is not a unique statement at all. Anything over 30 just used to seem so old. And then you get there and you’re like, wait a minute, I don’t feel old, not at all. By Lainey • Apr 28, 2016 11:48 am
Media Manipulation Hashtag Twinning For Smutty Social Media, I scour as many Instagram accounts as I can, and this means not just actors/musicians but also models, nightclub owners, hair stylists, magazines, assistants, friends-of-celebs, and brands. More often than not a really big celeb – like say George Clooney – obviously won’t be found on By Maria • Apr 14, 2016 12:15 pm
Baby and Bump Obsession Gwyneth hates dill? Gwyneth Paltrow is busy promoting her new cookbook It’s All Easy. I’ve been flipping through it all day because a copy was sent to our building. She’s gorgeous in all the photos. And Apple and Moses appear on several pages. Don’t ask me about the recipes. By Lainey • Apr 13, 2016 05:39 pm
Celebrity Lifestyle Brands The Heavenly Katherine Heigl Late last week, Katherine Heigl officially launched her blog, Those Heavenly Days. I think at this point, it would be easier to keep track of actresses that don’t have a lifestyle side-job, like Jennifer Lawrence and Cate Blanchett. Beyond Goop, in the digital lifestyle world there’s Vanessa Hudgens, By Maria • Apr 04, 2016 03:42 pm
Media Manipulation Reese Witherspoon bails, Kristen Wiig jumps in Before she was a lifestyle guru—or whatever the hell she’s doing with Draper James—before she was a Minivan maven, and before she was Elle Woods, Reese Witherspoon was Tracy Flick. For some, despite the popularity of Elle and the romance of Annette in Cruel Intentions, this is By Sarah • Mar 30, 2016 11:16 am
Media Manipulation The Honest Company’s Sorry (Not Sorry) Last week, the Wall Street Journal wrote an article about a chemical found in The Honest Company’s laundry detergent that was on the company’s own “banned” list (click here for a refresher). At the time, Honest called the report “reckless.” I thought that was a bold move, considering By Maria • Mar 14, 2016 10:18 am
