Gwyneth Paltrow's favourite X-rated act with former flame

Gwyneth Paltrow's favourite X-rated act with former flame

Perth Now21-07-2025
Gwyneth Paltrow's forthcoming biography has not been released, yet it's already unearthed several salacious treasures previously buried deep in the actor's past.
Penned by bestselling British author Amy Odell, Gwyneth: The Biography — set to drop in Australia on August 5 — promises to take fans behind the scenes of the A-Lister's last thirty years in the spotlight.
According to Odell, who clawed her way into 215 of the actor's relationships in pursuit of dirt, the actor revealed to her make-up artist Kevyn Aucion that she enjoyed partaking in one particular sex act with former flame Ben Affleck.
'It was the ribald side of her that her friends knew well but that the public didn't see,' Odell writes, according to Page Six.

Paltrow and Affleck, both 52, dated from 1997 — 2000, believed to have ended things due to infidelity.
According to the author, the pair's relationship began when Affleck was afflicted by 'alcoholism and a gambling problem.'
'Their physical chemistry couldn't overcome his self-destructive impulses, which may have even included cheating on her,' Odell writes.
But the Good Will Hunting star's alleged vices were not the only signs of foreboding, with sources telling the author he didn't show her enough affection.
Odell adds, 'He at times seemed more interested in playing video games with the guys at his house than being with Gwyneth.'

While the Thanks for Sharing star had long maintained a public image of purity and innocence early in her acting career, the entrepreneurial version of Paltrow has often leaned into sexual exploration.
Her Goop wellness brand once sold a 'This Smells Like My Vagina' candle for $75, which sold out in record time upon release in 2020.
In 2016, she told outlet Self that she was conscious of not losing her sexuality in a busy world.
'We have this idea that you can't be a mother and a businesswoman and like to have sex!' she said.

Paltrow found it amusing people might be shocked to learn she can maintain that side of herself despite being a mature, functioning member of society.
'Like, 'Gwyneth has sex? Really?' It doesn't seem to go together. But I think it's important, as mothers and as women contributing to society in whatever way we each are, that our true sexuality doesn't get lost or put aside,' she added.
In 2021, the star created Netflix series Sex, Love & Goop which followed sexually frustrated couples seeking to reinvigorate their relationships.

Iconic film starring Keira Knightley confirmed for a sequel, 23 years on

Don't miss out on the headlines from Upcoming Movies. Followed categories will be added to My News. IN LONDON More than two decades after the original, another Bend It Like Beckham is on the way. Director Gurinder Chadha has confirmed she is working on a sequel to the hit 2002 film, which starred Keira Knightley and Parminder Nagra. It will be released in 2027 in honour of Bend It Like Beckham's 25th anniversary and also to coincide with the FIFA Women's World Cup in Brazil. Bend It Like Beckham was a major box office success. Chadha told the BBC she'd received requests for a follow-up 'almost twice a week' since the release of the original, which was made on a $7.2 million budget and became a box office hit, making around $120 million worldwide. 'We've been part of changing the game for women, so it felt like this was a good time for me to go back and investigate the characters,' she explained. It's not yet clear whether the new instalment will be a film or TV series, but Chadha said she hoped to reunite some of the original cast members. The original film starred Nagra and Knightley. The sequel is expected to be released in 2027. Bend It Like Beckham followed the story of Jess (Parminder), a British teenager from a traditional Sikh family who dreams of being a football star amid pressure to follow to settle down. Jess befriends Jules (Knightley) and is recruited into the local women's team, where she struggles to keep the secret of her growing dedication and passion to the game from her family. It's not yet known which cast members might return. Chadha hinted that she'd been thinking about a sequel back in 2023, when she told The Mirror that for 'the longest time' she had avoided the idea. 'But I have to say, after the World Cup this year, and also with the Euros a few years ago, my brain is ticking again and I have an idea in my head that I'm thinking through for the first time, she told the publication. 'I'm thinking that I could definitely do something. I never wanted to follow the girls off in America, because I felt that what I had created was so magical for that moment in time. 'It's very hard with sequels – there are very few sequels that I think really hit the mark after the success of the first film. 'However, I do have an idea and I am starting to work on it, so I think I will definitely do something that shows how brilliant our athletes are right now.'

Joe Pantoliano's mental health crisis nearly destroyed his marriage

The Sopranos star Joe Pantoliano has revealed his mental health crisis almost destroyed his marriage. The 73-year-old actor - who played Ralph 'Ralphie' Cifaretto in the hit mobster drama - has confessed he was "a mess for a long time" and he made matters worse by self-medicating with alcohol which left his marriage to Nancy Sheppard on the brink of collapse. He told New York Post column PageSix: "[I used] alcohol, what was available, women, you know, risky behaviour, act first and then ask questions second ... "[I was] a mess for a long time ... My wife and my kids were ready to throw me out. The only people who were happy to see me weren't people. They were my dogs." Joe went on to insist he believes his pets helped save him. He explained: '[The dogs] saved my life because it was the only spark that was left in me. I was like Tinkerbell and the light was dying." The actor was eventually diagnosed with clinical depression in 2007 and managed to get his life back on track. He has since written two books on mental health and founded a charity called No Kidding, Me Too! to help eliminate the stigma surrounding such issues, Joe recently declared he's been feeling "really uncomfortable" at home in the US since President Donald Trump took office for a second term last year. He had previously revealed he's no fan of the reality TV star-turned-politician and accused him of glorifying the mobster characters in The Sopranos to justify bad behaviour, Joe told The Independent newspaper: "What always upset me was that the majority of the audience didn't get the genius of [The Sopranos creator] David Chase, and what David Chase was saying about these monsters. "[Mobster character] Tony Soprano becomes a hero, when he's a broken-down gangster and a murderer. Scumbags like Trump and Roger Stone, all these white-collar criminals, continue to be quoted as using The Godfather and The Sopranos as a blueprint for being douchebags! I mean, how f***** up is that?"

Matthew Lawrence wants to use AI for 'something special' with Robin Williams' voice

Matthew Lawrence wants to use AI to do "something really special" with the late Robin Williams. The 45-year-old star played one of the comedy legend's children in Mrs Doubtfire and he is keen to get the consent of the late actor's family to work on a project using the voice of Robin, who took his own life in 2014. Matthew told Entertainment Weekly: 'Obviously, with the respect and with the okay from his family, I would love to do something really special with his voice, because I know for a generation, that voice is just so iconic. 'It's not just the fact that I knew him and worked with him. "It's in my head, it's in everybody's head, and it would be so cool." Matthew got the idea of using AI to recreate Robin's voice after he saw an old commercial starring the Good Will Hunting star which made him realise there were parallels to the modern day. He explained: 'It's kinda like this very contemporary, modern, almost sort of foreshadowing of what's going on commercial that he did, where he did this computerised voiceover. 'And it always stuck with me. And then, during his passing, with the AI coming out, I'm like, 'Man, he's gotta be the voice of AI. He's gotta be the voice in something.' So yeah, I would love to do that.' One thing Matthew would love to use AI to do with Robin's voice is to give out driving directions on a phone. He said: 'It would be so cool. I'm telling you." The former Boy Meets World actor previously praised Robin for the way he treated him like an adult when they made Mrs. Doubtfire. He told People magazine: "He really opened up. I was only 12. I mean this guy … Man, he was just so amazing to be able to give me the respect, almost as an adult, at 12 years old, to really get an open look into his life, the performer side and then also the private side, and how they wrestled with each other." And even after filming on the 1993 movie was complete, Robin made sure he stayed in touch with his young co-star and offered him advice when he needed it. Matthew said: "He stayed a part of my life, you know? That movie could have wrapped [and] like everybody else, he could have gone his separate way, but he didn't. "He stayed invested, and he gave me some incredible life lessons that definitely kept me from some dark places at times. And I'll just never be able to thank him enough for that."
