Gwyneth Paltrow was upset over Brad Pitt marrying Jennifer Aniston
While fans of Brad Pitt and the Friends actress were excited to witness the duo marrying in 2000, Paltrow's feelings weren't mutual. Back in the day, when a reporter asked the actress about the celebrity wedding happening in the city, the Marvel star quipped, 'Are you really asking me this question? I can't comment on this kind of thing.'
Though the actress ignored the question in media, she later confided in a friend and allegedly told them that Pitt 'has terrible taste in women.'
As for the F1 star 's marriage to Aniston, the duo got engaged in 1999, and wedded a year later. Though they were one of the most adored couples in Hollywood, the pair parted ways five years later.
Odell, further in the Biography recalls Paltrow's meeting with Aerin Lauder. During a business meeting dinner, the actress confided in the latter and went on to describe Pitt as 'dumber than a sack of s–t.'
Opening up about the contrasting worlds of Paltrow and Pitt, the author mentioned, 'He was brought up very religious, in Missouri.' Odell further added, 'It's just a very different world from hers, growing up in Manhattan, going to [elite private school] Spence. I think she thought he wasn't sophisticated enough for her. She thought she was smarter, better educated, and more sophisticated.'
Meanwhile, Gwyneth Paltrow and Brad Pitt went on to date each other in 1994, after working together in the horror classic Se7en. The former partners got engaged in 1996, and split up a year later.

Fantastic Four first reactions say Marvel dials down the noise, turns up the heart in cosmic reboot: ‘Emotional punch'
Marvel hosted a special screening of Fantastic Four: First Steps five days ahead of its global release, and if early reactions are any clue, this might be the comeback the company has been been dying for. The film already had eyeballs thanks to its crossover with Avengers: Doomsday, but even as a standalone, it's holding its ground. From visuals to casting, critics are raving about the reboot's bold direction, picture perfect casting, stunning visuals, and a surprisingly strong emotional core. Here's what critics are saying online. Marvel's first family has elicited a strong response from critics, something that might just reignite that old spark fans had for the MCU. If it hits big with audiences and pulls off a box office win, this could mark Marvel's second comeback moment this year, right after Thunderbolts* revived the modern MCU era. The first press screening drew comparisons to Interstellar and Guardians of the Galaxy in terms of feels and ambition to have a new installment. Also read: Did Pedro Pascal just spoil a major Avengers Doomsday death? Fans decode his cryptic Robert Downey Jr comment The movie stars stretchy Reed Richards (Pedro Pascal), invisible woman Sue Storm (Vanessa Kirby), human torch Johnny Storm (Joseph Quinn), and rock monster Ben Grimm, aka the Thing (Ebon Moss-Bachrach). Critics are calling it a 'visual feast,' with Brandon Davis praising the film's 'immaculate' effects, especially in scenes featuring Silver Surfer and Galactus. Davis added, 'Fantastic Four: First Steps gets a lot right — it looks and feels like a top-tier Marvel film again.' Pedro Pascal and Vanessa Kirby are garnering praise for their electrifying chemistry that's actually worth the hype. So far, not many are finding much to complain about. People's Sharareh Drury called Kirby 'a shooting star,' praising her command over the role and how she stands out even in a team full of scene-stealers. Joseph Quinn and Ebon Moss-Bachrach also received strong reactions, with their excellent comic timing and emotional beats striking a chord with the audience. Julia Garner's version of Silver Surfer has apparently brought the character to life, in a way that's 'haunting, powerful, and unforgettable.' Also read: Who is 'world eater' Galactus and the female silver surfer Shalla Bal who feature in the trailer of The Fantastic Four First Steps About the action set-pieces, critics say while it's not extravagant, it's polished and fits into the film's stunning cosmic sequences. But the aspect making Fantastic Four such a film to discuss doesn't even lie with the action, it's about the emotions that exceeded expectations. Multiple early viewers pointed out that the film doesn't just build a universe, it gives the characters room to breathe, connect, and grow. George Mckay: 'Fantastic Four Quite possibly the best Marvel Studios film ever released. Absolutely loaded with talent and standout performances from Vanessa Kirby and Joseph Quinn. If you thought the MCU died with Endgame, think again. Thoughtfully crafted and easily a genre-defining classic.' Brian Long Films: 'I came in tempered but #FantasticFour is truly a return to form for the MCU, the opening minutes blew my socks off in IMAX. Gardner's & Quinn's work stood out to me the most. Galactus gives this film real stakes and his presence is felt even off screen, incredible miniature work!' Next Best Picture editor-in-chief Matt Neglia: 'Combined with Matt Shakman's snappy, confident storytelling, this is an intriguing & satisfying first step for Marvel's new team (easily the best depiction of this quartet on-screen to date) as the MCU continues to regain control of the ship & steer it closer to 'Doomsday.'' In a behind-the-scenes reveal, Shakman confirmed that John Malkovich was originally cast as Red Ghost, but his scenes were cut. 'It broke my heart,' he admitted, but said the decision was necessary to maintain focus on the core story. As Marvel prepares for Phase 6, Fantastic Four: First Step's box office will reveal whether the Superhero movie still stands a chance. So far, its a bold reset that may have finally put Marvel back on track. Fantastic Four: First Steps releases on July 25.

F1 Day 23 India Box Office: Brad Pitt's film grows by 65 percent on 4th Saturday despite Saiyaara wave; Nets an exceptional Rs 2.50 crore
F1, directed by Joseph Kosinski and starring Brad Pitt, Kerry Condon, Damson Idris, Javier Bardem and others is the biggest success story among Hollywood movies in India this year. F1 's opening day multiplier is a mindboggling 14 times after 23 days and by the end of its run, it can be even 16 or 17 times, given the excellent collections that the film is still registering after 3 weeks, that too with new local competition every week. F1 Grows By 65 Percent On 4th Saturday To Add Rs 2.50 Crore Net; Remains Unaffected By Saiyaara F1 collected Rs 1.50 crore on 4th Friday, actually growing by 25 percent from 3rd Thursday. The movie registered a 65 percent growth on Saturday to collect Rs 2.50 crore net. The total collections of the film stand at Rs 76.50 crore net after 23 days and by the end of day 24, it will be flirting with Rs 80 crore net. The Day Wise India Net Collections Of F1 In India Are As Under F1 Has Enjoyed The Best World Of Mouth For A Hollywood Film In A Long Time F1 opened to modest Rs 5.50 crore net including few early screenings. For it to reach this far is a testament of how strong the movie's word of mouth is. What's most surprising is that close to Rs 15 crore net of the film has come after it lost its IMAX exclusivity to Superman, and there's obviously a lot more to come. If all goes well, it can hit Rs 90 crore net too. And there's no reason not to believe it won't go well since the movie has been defying every trade prediction with a hold that not many films get to see. There is an outside chance that it may cross Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning in the country, and that would be insane because the opening of F1 was practically a third of the former. F1 Is Kosinski And Pitt's Highest India Grosser F1 is the highest grossing Kosinski and Pitt film in India. The fact that both F1 is Kosinski and Pitt's highest Indian grosser when they literally have higher global grossers shows how much the Indian market for Hollywood films has grown. Stay tuned to Pinkvilla for more box office updates of F1.
