Gwyneth Paltrow on how #MeToo changed Hollywood
Hollywood star Gwyneth Paltrow, who recently returned to acting for the new sports drama Marty Supreme, believes that the #MeToo movement has significantly changed the culture of Hollywood.
Speaking to Vanity Fair magazine, Gwyneth explained:
“There are no meetings set up in hotel rooms, from what I understand, or if there are, it’s multiple people in the room. That bubble has definitely burst. I’m sure people still abuse power in Hollywood because they do everywhere, but it has definitely changed.”
Paltrow filmed some intimate scenes with actor Timothée Chalamet for their new movie. However, the Oscar-winning actress opted against using an intimacy coordinator, fearing it could stifle her performance, reports femalefirst.co.uk.
She said:
“We said, ‘I think we’re good. You can step a little bit back.’ I don’t know how it is for kids who are starting out, but … if someone is like, ‘Okay, and then he’s going to put his hand here,’ I would feel, as an artist, very stifled by that.”
Paltrow previously shared that she achieved most of her acting ambitions before she turned 30, reports femalefirst.co.uk.
In recent years, she has focused more on her lifestyle brand, admitting that she “doesn’t love acting that much.”
The actress, who is the daughter of filmmaker Bruce Paltrow and actress Blythe Danner, told SiriusXM:
“I think that when you hit the bullseye when you’re 26 years old, and you’re a metrics-driven person — who, frankly, doesn’t love acting that much, as it turns out … I sort of felt like, well, now, who am I supposed to be? What am I driving towards?”
Earlier this month, Paltrow wished her former partner Chris Martin a happy birthday by sharing photos of him with their daughter Apple and son Moses. The actress, 52, posted a heartfelt tribute on Instagram, featuring Martin spending time with their children, reports People magazine.
