Gwyneth Paltrow Denounces Unauthorized Biography, Calls Author a 'Hack'

Her Vogue profile pushes back on Amy Odell’s unauthorized book alleging a chaotic culture at Goop.

Overview

  • Paltrow said she has not read the book and relayed that husband Brad Falchuk skimmed it and likened it to ChatGPT mining tabloid stories.
  • She described the biography as boring, “rubbish,” and “sexist,” asking why male subjects get Walter Isaacson while she gets a “hack.”
  • Addressing workplace claims, Paltrow rejected the idea of a toxic culture at Goop, conceding there were “a couple of toxic people” and that she was slow to act.
  • Odell’s July release draws on more than 220 interviews and was widely reported as a bestseller that detailed alleged high turnover and internal turmoil.
  • Odell briefly reposted Paltrow’s British Vogue cover on Instagram with the caption “Here we go with the Oscar campaign” before deleting the post.
