Gwyneth Paltrow (Goop)
Gwyneth Paltrow dished on what it was like sleeping with Hollywood heartthrobs Brad Pitt and Ben Affleck, both of whom she famously dated back in the 1990s. The revelations from the Goop creator came in an interview with Alex Cooper on his podcast “Call Her Daddy.”
So, what did the Oscar winning actress have to say about her fellow Oscar winners’ abilities?
Well, apparently Ben Affleck was “technically excellent,” whatever that means. But as for Brad Pitt, Gwyneth Paltrow described him as, “major chemistry, love-of-your-life kind of, at the time.”

The two met when filming the 1995 film “Seven.” About her break up from Pitt, Gwyneth Paltrow said, “I had a lot of development to do, looking back in hindsight. In a lot of ways, I didn’t really fully start to come into myself until I was 40 years old.”
Now, imagine what the reaction would be if a famous man made such comments about the women who he slept with.
And while Gwyneth Paltrow never slept with fellow Oscar winner Leonardo DiCaprio, it was not because of a lack of trying on his part. The actor known for sleeping with beautiful stars and models from… well just about all of them, apparently would have loved to add Paltrow to his list of conquests. And this was very early on in his “hall of fame” worthy sexual career. But apparently, he was too much of a player for Paltrow.
“He tried back in the day,” explained Gwyneth Paltrow. “But he was already like, you know, he was very loose with the goods from when he was 19.”
On winning an Oscar, Gwyneth Paltrow said that it put her, “into a bit of an identity crisis. Because if you win the biggest prize, what are you supposed to do and where are you supposed to go? The amount of attention that you receive on a night like that and the weeks following is so disorienting and, frankly, really unhealthy.”
“I remember the British press being so horrible to me because I cried. I cried, and people were so mean about it,” added Gwyneth Paltrow. “I just thought, ‘Wow, there’s this big energy shift that’s happening and I think I’m going to have to learn to be less open-hearted and much more protective of myself and filter people out better.’ It was like this big reckoning, in a way.”
