Gwyneth Paltrow is telling the world how strange it is to be a celebrity.
“I’ve been in the public eye for many years, the surreal part has been famous, basically, my whole adult life, so I don’t know what it means to be an adult without all the scrutiny and all the wonderful things and horrible things that come with being a famous person, Peltro, 48, told Anna Faris on Monday’s episode Anna Faris is inappropriate Podcast. “I think our culture idealizes a lot of fame, and I think that’s what it is [a] It’s a terrible thing to be famous, if our purpose on the planet is for human development and really to be our own trust, the best version. I think fame is a big obstacle for that and I had to work really hard to separate fame from who I am. “
Peltro didn’t read anything about himself in “really, really long time” just for that reason. But she didn’t know she should do that when she started appearing in movies regularly in the 90’s.
“When I became famous, I was probably 22 years old and, you know, I was just starting out, and you have a publicist and would be a publicist every day – this is the inter-pre – internet – fax, you know, In if you would US Magazine, Which was a monthly magazine at the time, or they’ll fax you, you know, ‘Oh, you are New York Times Today, “said Peltro. ” And it’s been literally six months, I said, ‘I have to stop this. This is not healthy. I have nothing to do with this. I’m excited if someone writes something good. I get frustrated when someone writes something bad. This is not my business. ‘
Since then, Goop Mogul has said she has been focusing on who she is as a person, realizing that outside opinions cannot affect her relationship with herself.
Plattro, daughter of late director Bruce Plattro and actress Blyth Denner, was seen in her first theatrical movie. ScreamingWith teenagers John Trevolta and Heather Graham in 1991. Seven years later, she won an Oscar for her performance Shakespeare in Love.
When Farris asked Peltro what it was for him, he considered it strange.
“I was doing a movie in Vancouver. My dad was directing, and at the time he was recovering from this crazy cancer surgery, and I was so happy that I was focusing on it,” said Peltro, whose father Died of oral cancer. In 2002. “My whole family was there, my brother [director Jake Paltrow] And my mom, we were all like bands as a family to get my dad through this kind of movie, which was really hard. And thank God it should be focused on, because it was the strangest, most surreal time. “
While it was exciting, Peltro felt insecure.
“You know, you’re kind of embarrassed that you’re nominated for sc sc, and you have impostor syndrome and you think, ‘I can’t even believe this is happening. I’m not that good either.’ And, ‘Does everyone hate me?’ Paltrow, who is married to TV writer Brad Falchuk, said. “It’s the strangest time, but at the same time, in my case, I haven’t won yet, so I was kind of like, ‘Well, of course I’m not going to win, but this is kind of nice too.’
After Paltrow won the award, which he acknowledged didn’t get much attention outside of Los Angeles, it became even more bizarre.
“When you have so much focus on yourself and so much energy, it was really, really overwhelming.” “I remember I was living with their parents in Santa Monica at their home, and I just hid after three weeks. It was so intense, and I felt સા the true word for loneliness. It was really weird.”
“I felt that way when I met him,” Farris joked Scary movie. I can relate to Gwyneth perfectly. “
Peltro also talked about the time before being an award-winning actress. He said his father told both him and his brother that they were not entitled to his money, so he started working when he was still in school.
“And so he said, ‘You can enjoy this while you’re here, and I love you, and I’ll share this with you when you’re here, but when you’re done, you Get it done. ‘ Like, ‘I don’t give you a penny, I’ll never help you’, and stick to it, ”Peltro explained. “So, you know, after school we had jobs. My brother worked at the deli on the corner. I worked in a toy store. I worked at a ski store. I worked a summer job. I worked. It’s like, ‘If you want money, you have to work for money.’ Was. So it was a funny nonsense. A very valuable parenting lesson. “
She said she stood by her “no help” rule even after she left college to try acting.
“I mean, there were times when I was like, ‘But I don’t have the gas money to go to this audition,'” he said. “And he also said, ‘That’s not my problem. I love you, but that’s not my problem.'”
