Gwyneth Paltrow reveals the oddly romantic things Brad Falchuk loves about her
Over a decade after the Goop founder "consciously" uncoupled from ex-husband Chris Martin, the Oscar winner, 52, adventured to find out husband Brad Falchuk's favorite thing about her in a July 22 episode of her podcast.
After Paltrow and Coldplay frontman Martin finalized their divorce in July 2016, she and Falchuk tied the knot during a wedding ceremony in the Hamptons in September 2018. Falchuk, 54, and production partner Ryan Murphy are co-creators of successful TV series, including "Glee," "American Horror Story," "Scream Queens" and "Pose."
After texting him to get the answer during an "Ask Me Anything"-themed episode, Paltrow revealed her lover's long list, reading aloud that he "honestly" doesn't "have a favorite. I truly love every aspect of you."

"Your physical beauty. The way your body moves through space. The way you disappear a little when you're working. The way your hands add something to a pan," Paltrow read. "Your love of dirty jokes and well-plastered walls. How much you know about art. That you feel so comfortable naked and hate fake people."
During the podcast episode, Falchuk told Paltrow, I love "when you're needy. When you're angry on the road. I love when you chug water by the bedside at night. I like the things you choose to worry about and how you handle problems."
Falchuk wrote: "I love your morning routine and when you act like I've been demanding you to get out of the bath when I haven't said a word about it," and that, "I love the skin on the back of your knees and the arch of your feet and when you smile at me in bed after you've put in your retainers. I love how hard you try and how often you succeed."
Then, he told the actress, "I can keep going if you like."
Paltrow's reaction? "OK, I'm crying a little," the "Shakespeare In Love" star proclaimed.

'Gwyneth: The Biography' author Amy Odell unpacks the cultural power—and cringe—of a woman who shaped what it means to be a modern celebrity, whether we like it or not.
Gwyneth Paltrow is an Oscar-winning actress, a best-selling cookbook author, and the founder of a $250 million lifestyle brand. She is also, according to at least one magazine, The Most Hated Celebrity in the World. Author Amy Odell, who spoke with more than 220 sources over three years for the recently released Gwyneth: The Biography, thinks the reason why the Goop founder is 'so triggering' to so many people is because she 'has never had an average life.' Odell sat down with The Daily Beast Podcast to provide some insight into Paltrow's regularly scrutinized wellness claims and accidental class war commentary—as well as her surprisingly savvy business instincts.

Gwyneth Paltrow's crude nickname for ‘frenemy' Winona Ryder revealed
A new book about Gwyneth Paltrow reveals the rumored savage nickname the Goop founder once had for fellow actress Winona Ryder. Author Amy Odell interviewed over 220 people, some on the record and others anonymously, for Gwyneth: The Biography, which hit shelves Tuesday. Paltrow's publicist reportedly told Odell that the Iron Man star would only participate in the book's formation if allowed to 'fact-check.' Odell declined, and that was the end of communication with Paltrow's team, per The Guardian. In the book, Odell alleged Paltrow, 52, started calling Ryder 'Vagina Ryder' after suspecting the Beetlejuice star was fabricating stories for attention, according to the Daily Mail. The nickname reportedly came about in the late 1990s while Ryder was dating Matt Damon and Paltrow was seeing his friend Ben Affleck. Ryder claimed she was robbed twice after fights with Damon, per the book. 'Damon consoled her, but Gwyneth and Affleck believed Ryder fabricated the robberies as a ploy for attention (there's no proof of this),' Odell wrote in the book, per the Daily Mail. 'Gwyneth was annoyed that Damon couldn't see it. Though Damon was kind to her friends, Gwyneth didn't seem to like him after that,' she continued. 'Her friendship with Ryder would only deteriorate further, and Gwyneth gave her the nickname 'Vagina Ryder.'' The Independent has contacted representatives for Paltrow and Ryder for comment. Elsewhere in the new book, Odell claimed Paltrow took the lead role in 1998's Shakespeare in Love from Ryder after initially passing on the part, People reported. 'After a story about Gwyneth allegedly stealing the script from Winona's coffee table reached the media, Gwyneth told friends that Ryder had started the rumor, and insisted she'd received the script through her agent,' Odell wrote. Although neither Ryder nor Paltrow has publicly addressed their rumored feud, Paltrow alluded to a toxic friendship in a 2009 Goop blog post. 'Back in the day, I had a 'frenemy' who, as it turned out, was pretty hell-bent on taking me down,' Paltrow wrote. 'This person really did what they could to hurt me.' 'I was deeply upset, I was angry, I was all of those things you feel when you find out that someone you thought you liked was venomous and dangerous,' she continued. 'I restrained myself from fighting back. … But one day I heard that something unfortunate and humiliating had happened to this person. And my reaction was deep relief and happiness,' Paltrow said at the time. Solve the daily Crossword

After ending his tour in Miami, Chris Martin was seen at this Little Havana restaurant
Chris Martin has been a busy rock star lately, burning up calories jumping around the stage and calling out people on the Kiss Cam. On Monday afternoon, the Coldplay singer was seen grabbing a late lunch at Ball & Chain in Miami's Little Havana neighborhood, spies told us. We didn't get details of his order, but the former vegetarian is a meat eater these days and could have chosen from a variety of specialties including Chicken Fricassee, Masitas de Puerco and Ropa Vieja. The details we did get was that upon leaving he gave a staffer one of the 'Love' pin souvenirs from the band's Music of the Spheres World Tour. The night before, Martin and the guys had just wrapped the U.S. leg of the tour with a pair of weekend shows at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens. As is tradution, the so-called Kiss Cam panned on the crowd, singling out a few Florida Panthers players as well as soccer star Leo Messi and his wife. No scandal was detected unlike earlier this month, during Coldplay's show at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Massachusetts. The Jumbotron capture a cozy looking couple up in the VIP section who were in a romantic clinch. When they saw themselves up on the big screen, they ducked out of sight. Martin joked that the mortified looking pair was either 'shy' or 'having an affair.' Yeppers. The man was Astronomer CEO Andy Byron, married with two kids. The woman, his top HR executive Kristin Cabot, is also married. After the embarrassing clip of the coworkers went beyond viral, both resigned from their positions at the AI tech company. Martin never publicly discussed the scandal, but his ex wife Gwyneth Paltrow was hired by the AI tech company to do damage control as their unofficial spokesperson. A source told People magazine the Oscar winner found the situation amusing and jumped on the opportunity (word is the actress' payday was in the millions). 'Gwyneth has a really great sense of humor and it felt funny enough for her to do,' the source dished. 'I've been hired on a very temporary basis to speak on behalf of the 300-plus employees at Astronomer,' Paltrow says in the promo. 'We've been thrilled so many people have a newfound interest in data workflow automation.'
