Whatever, Gwyn...

Tired of seeing Gwyneth Paltrow and her anit-American views. The most recent occurred in an interview with a Portugese daily newspaper. Paltrow said Americans were "uncivilized" and "less inteligent" than her now current neighbor Brits.
I remember her wailing about American patriotism in the past. Her move to England and marrying of the Coldplay dude says enough. Why do I know all this? I don't know, but I do know that she can take her back-pedaling attempt to save her bank account outta here (see this) .
I find the attempt to preserve her box office appeal sadly transparent. If I could respect you, I could respect you more if you admitted your bias and moved on. The publicist styled effort to claim being misquoted is pathetic. We know your true colors, Gwyn, and they're not Red, White and Blue.

  1. I've gotten to the point where, to save my own sanity, I just tune out what celebreties say or think about politics. They incredibily overestimate their importance.

    As an interesting contrast, I was watching Turner Classic Movies last month, and they were rerunning Dick Cavett shows from the late 60's early 70's. They were like 90 minute interviews with just Cavett and one guest. On one show his guest was Robert Mitchum. (It was cool too because Mitchum was smoking and drinking what looked like a whiskey product thoroughout the interview. I digress). At one point Cavett asked Mitchum a question about politics. Mitchum's answer, "I don't know. I'm not qualified to say."

    How times have changed.
