^Thanks for the info, I hadn't seen her before. I love me some Johnny Buckland

I hate to say it but I do feel like Gwynnie is following trends a bit more than she used to (someone before had mentioned the skinny jeans) and now the bracelet pushed up the forearm (very Kate/Sienna). I wish she was a bit more avant garde/original

Hey, I for one thought "Shallow Hal" had a lot of heart. "View From the Top" is the one you all should be referring to

I heard mentioned in a interview that Gwen said she only did those type of movies (and those two mentioned in particular) for the money. Her reason given was so that she could then do meatier but less well paid perhaps stuff like Silvia and Proof. Personally I imagine a designer lifestyle is hard to keep up on an 'artist's' salary. I was about to say and maybe to support herself while pregnant and not working but I imagine that Chris has plenty in the bank himself - some of which I personally have contributed

Yeah, I know. I've actually known for quite a while but can't make up my mind about how I actually feel about it. It makes sense, but her attitude doesn't make her seem like the most pleasant person.

Gwyneth Paltrow divides her films into two categories: those she does for love and those she does for money, or "****e" as she calls them, tentatively road-testing the British vernacular. Into the former category goes Sylvia, which, she says, "because it's a movie about a poet who killed herself, [didn't] have a big audience", and The Royal Tenenbaums. Into the latter goes Shallow Hal, the Farrelly brothers film, and "this terrible movie called View From the Top that Harvey Weinstein talked me into doing". Her new film Proof, is, needless to say, a labour of love.

For an actress of her depoliticised generation, Paltrow is surprisingly, and gratifyingly, strident about women in Hollywood. She hates the way intelligent actresses get shoehorned into generic parts, and thinks the only way to solve it is for more women to become directors. "Even actresses that you really admire, like Reese Witherspoon, you think, another romantic comedy? You know." She sighs. "You see her in something like Walk the Line and think, God, you're so great. And then you think, why is she doing these stupid romantic comedies? But of course it's for money and status. I just think, wouldn't it be great if all of those movies people went to see were about real women?"

Paltrow has tried to be true to this with films such as Sylvia, which she thinks is her best work. As the face of Estée Lauder, she has also peddled a fantasy version of womanhood. I don't understand, I tell her, why an actor as successful as she is would bother with a dappy advertising campaign.

"I'll tell you why," she says. "I basically stopped making money from acting in 2002. All the things I've done since then have been things I've really wanted to do, and I have not made money from them." The Estée Lauder gig pays for her art just as Calvin Klein, she says, pays for Scarlett Johansson to work with Woody Allen, "and never have to do a movie where they put her in a bikini and give her a gun". Oh, give me a break. Didn't she save any money from all that work she did in her 20s? "Good question." She laughs. "I spent it on shoes. No. Well, I had saved money, but I bought a house, and I never made Julia Roberts kind of money. I made really great money, but not the kind of money ..."

She won't tell me the most she's ever been paid for a role. I say I read somewhere it was $2m. She looks mildly perturbed. Is that offensively low? "No, not at all," she says vaguely. "That's what you read? Well, it's more than that. But..."
