If there’s something Gwyneth Paltrow never had to do, it was subject herself to the time-honored tradition of the Hollywood casting couch.
For those of you unawares of what a casting couch is, it’s the place where most of your favorite stars have sat to receive propositions of sex for starring in Piranha: The Awakening, sequels to the Exorcist, and various other films that people probably won’t hear of down the line. Real, legitimate people hire casting directors to help pimp their girls out to them. Anyway, in a new interview, Gwyneth told a story about somebody trying to continue a meeting with her in his bedroom, and her running away frightened. A story which I’m sure has killed at every wealthy dinner party she’s told it at, but here’s the deal…
- She has rich, well-connected parents.
Her godfather is Steven Speilberg. If anyone tried to get little Gwynie on a casting couch, he could have them killed, videotape it, and put it in his next movie, and people would think it was a poignant cutscene.
- She has rich, well-connected parents.
Seriously. When your dad is Bruce Paltrow, and your mom is the eternally hot Blythe Danner, you can bet you’ll have some kind of career in showbiz. And if you don’t you’re doing life wrong.
