As much as we like to drag celebrities, this headline from the Guardian US on Gwyneth Paltrow is not even close to accurate and the tweet shouldâve been deleted long ago:
They did change the headline:
The headline was updated on 10 May 2021 at 14:56pm to better reflect the understanding of the story
âWhat was your lowest pointâ is now âHow did you surprise yourself?â
Gwyneth Paltrow broke down and ate bread during quarantine. How did you surprise yourself?
But the whole article should probably be pulled as itâs still about the âlowest pointâ:
My lowest point this pandemic was when, at the end of my tether, I yelled âIâM THE ALPHA!â at my four-month-old puppy, proving to us both I clearly wasnât; or maybe that time I thought I could get him to stop humping me by doing it right back at him (spoiler alert: doesnât work).
And hereâs the article from the Mirror that the Guardian used for its post which wasnât even close to Paltrow talking about her âlowest pointâ:
She may be the queen of healthy living, but even Gwyneth Paltrow hit the bottle during the pandemic.
The 48-year-old actress, who is behind healthy lifestyle brand Goop, came up with her own âfantastic drink called the Buster Paltrowâ, which is made from quinoa whiskey.
Gwyneth explains to the Smartless podcast: âI drank alcohol during quarantine.
âI was drinking seven nights a week and making pasta and eating bread. I went totally off the rails.
âI mean, who drinks multiple drinks seven nights a week? Like thatâs not healthy. I love whiskey and I make this fantastic drink called the Buster Paltrow, which I named after my grandfather who loved whiskey sours.
Over to you, Guardian:

The Guardian US really owes Gwyneth Paltrow an apology over this monumentally bad headline on her ‘lowest point’ during the pandemic
