Gwyneth Paltrow Is Full of Regret While Eating Spicy Wings | Hot Ones

I went into this highly skeptical. I’ve probably at some point made a derogatory comment about Gwyneth Paltrow. Now I’m wondering if we should all be steaming our vaginas.

Edit: You guys are a hoot. Thanks to those who saw my point. If you didn’t, then that’s cool too. I’ll check back later.

Very Late Edit: Please see my mea culpa, here: slrpnk.net/post/8972825

Didn’t read the title and thought, from a thumbnail, it was Lisa Kudrow. This got my hopes up really high, but then I saw it was vagina candle inventor.

Summzashi ,

Op has to be the biggest simp of the fediverse

MyPornViewingAccount ,

Meh, host lost it after people found out he was dating a porn star… real classy.

sgibson5150 OP ,

I probably won’t click on that but you’ve got an honest face so I’ll believe you.

LaserTurboShark69 ,

What’s wrong with dating a porn star?

MyPornViewingAccount ,

Nothing, thats my point that he’s a jackass for dumping her when their relationship went public

EnderMB ,

To be fair to him, if someone wants to keep their life private because they’re in the public eye, you shouldn’t disrespect that.

I mean, he was punching above his weight there, but it’s not unreasonable to want some privacy before something becomes serious.

sin_free_for_00_days ,

Hot Ones used to have interesting guests and interesting, deep dive, questions. This season really feels like it jumped the shark. Just PR for people who don’t need it or deserve it.

sgibson5150 OP ,

Did you watch the video? I thought Sean was great.

sin_free_for_00_days ,

Sean is always fine. The research level seems to have dropped the more popular it’s become. Which is weird. And no, I did not watch it. I don’t give a milky shit for Paltrow.

sgibson5150 OP ,

I don’t want to tell you how to live your life my good person but I’d get that checked. Milking stool good, but milk in stool not so much.

sin_free_for_00_days ,

I don’t give a milky shit

sgibson5150 OP ,

Yet you cared enough to make multiple comments on this post. ✌️

sin_free_for_00_days ,

Just being polite to you. I may not like Paltrow, but you’ve done nothing to make me not respond.

sgibson5150 OP ,

I bow before your laudable and palpable grace.

@willya@lemmyf.uk avatar

I highly doubt every guest before this season you actually respected.

sgibson5150 OP ,

Interesting how the reaction is split so far. It occurs to me that lots of celebrities have sold sketchy shit, but female celebrities get grief over it. Did Matt Damon get cancelled over his crypto Superbowl ad? Food for thought, guys.

Ashyr ,

I strongly dislike Matt Damon now, so for me, this has nothing to do with gender.

sgibson5150 OP ,

I’m sure that’s true. Can you see my point, though? How’d Gwyneth Paltrow get to be Super Hitler? 😆

CaptainSpaceman ,

Are you Gwyneth Paltrow?

Also, did you watch the video?

sgibson5150 OP , (edited )

LMAO I wish. She’s laughing all the way to the bank.

Yeah, I did watch the video. I sort of expected to hate her but I was surprised. She handled the wings of death pretty well and I found her funny, smart, and personable. Sean had his A game and he let her direct him in a facial at the end. Good stuff.

Edit: Also, are you by any chance Leo Spaceman? 😉 Edit #2: Left out a word in my first edit.

@willya@lemmyf.uk avatar

You’ve just tapped into the lemmyverse hatred hive mind. It’s easy to do. Other than a vagina candle I don’t know a whole lot about her. Hating someone for being a hustler and making $$$ is wild.

sgibson5150 OP ,

My man/woman/person! 🫸🫷

willya ,
@willya@lemmyf.uk avatar

These people are sheep and unfortunately there’s a lot of them. It’s fucking weird. There’s more logical points of views on the damn privacy invading platforms. Too many discussions on here are lead by pure emotion over some dumbass article someone read.

bostonbananarama ,

Interesting how the reaction is split so far. It occurs to me that lots of celebrities have sold sketchy shit, but female celebrities get grief over it.

Dr. Oz seems like a great example in line with her. They both made bogus claims about snake oil products that don’t provide the benefits claimed.

Did Matt Damon get cancelled over his crypto Superbowl ad? Food for thought, guys.

Damon did an ad as a spokesperson. Crypto is inherently risky; it’s a currency based on nothing that people just made up. Unless I’m missing something, I don’t even know how they’re comparable.

sgibson5150 OP ,

Idk vagina candle sounds pretty risky to me. 😉

CTDummy ,

Why even have her on hot wings? She doesn’t act, is barely in the Hollywood/pop culture landscape and now runs a company selling bullshit to people. Is old mate that hard up for people to go on the show?

sgibson5150 OP ,

Sure, but everybody is hustling somebody. That’s the world we live in. What about her hustle makes her worse than others?

CTDummy ,

Well, I guess if we sidestep moral accountability for a moment, it doesn’t really make sense is why I bitch. We’re not exactly going to get anything out of it apart from a glance back at her career because it’s not like she’s on the show to promote anything. So my point is what is old mate getting out of it? If he’s just trading interviews for brand exposure now it doesn’t bid well for his show.

sgibson5150 OP ,

I’d say engagement. Lots of people hate Gwyneth Paltrow, as we can clearly see here in the comments. Engagement is engagement.

CTDummy ,

Damn good point, the old rage engagement gets em every time.

asdfasdfasdf ,

No, not everyone is hustling someone. What a wrong, depressing view of the world. I don’t think even the majority are.

sgibson5150 OP ,

Not saying it’s right. Just asking how it makes her Space Hitler.

awwwyissss ,

everybody is hustling somebody

Sounds like an excuse for acting like an asshole.

sgibson5150 OP ,

Admitting you have a problem is the first step. 👍

willya ,
@willya@lemmyf.uk avatar

On hot wings? Are you 65 years old by chance?

CTDummy ,

Old for mistyping wings instead of ones. Not old, replying to a two day old post. Totally checks out.

willya ,
@willya@lemmyf.uk avatar

What? Only old people reply to old posts? You have absolutely no logic. I was already in here when it was first posted. I always come back to these buzzword hive mind lemmy hatred posts to observe the ignorance. Did you forget the E in CTE in your username?

CTDummy ,

Oof what a retort. What? Only old people misspell things? I’ve been on reddit for longer than I care to admit and almost never has anyone replied after 24 hours. That and you opening with an age based sting just led me to guess you were projecting. The username zinger certainly didn’t help either.

CTDummy ,

Just love that sneaky edit btw

I always come back to these buzzword hive mind lemmy hatred posts to observe the ignorance.

So enlightened, just checking back in to try and toss some wise, personal insults because someone had the audacity to post something you disagree with.

She’s getting trashed in the YT video comments too. Who knew lemmys hive mind was so powerful. Couldn’t just be that people dislike Paltrow because she sells pseudoscience (among other reasons). No sir, it’s the hive mind.

Rai ,

Some of us reply to month-old posts

asdfasdfasdf ,

Disappointed in Hot Ones for hosting this psycho

sgibson5150 OP , (edited )

Psycho? Really? Isn’t that a little harsh my friend?

Edit: Don’t downvote me. Use your words! I’m curious.

Edit #2: OK it’s on me. Saying “Don’t downvote me” is like wearing a “kick me” sign. I don’t care about the karma. I’d prefer comments. Or downvote and then comment. 😆

asdfasdfasdf ,

Not harsh enough. I originally called her something different but wasn’t sure if I was breaking any rules and didn’t want to get banned.

sgibson5150 OP ,

Yes yes it’s snake oil, obviously. But why go after her? People have been selling snake oil for a bajillion years.

asdfasdfasdf ,

LMAO WTF is wrong with you. People have murdered each other for a bajillion years too, I guess that means you’re okay with them?

sgibson5150 OP , (edited )

Dang how’d we get from oatmeal scrub and steamed vaginas to murder? I’ll give you a hug if you need one. It’s going to be ok.

Edit: Hey don’t downvote my hugs. I give good hugs.

HessiaNerd ,

I’m not a fan of Paltro, but… Really?

Do you honestly expect a YouTube channel that makes mid to moderately famous people eat spicy food to be a paragon of journalistic integrity? That’s just silly.

Also, yes she is parody of herself, but personally I reserve that level of vitriol for the Bezeoss and Rumsfelds of the world.

asdfasdfasdf ,

Scamming people who need real medical help into thinking bullshit products will cure them of issues, when in reality they could even cause them harm, is definitely deserving of vitriol.

ItsAFake ,

I see this more as a PR stunt to try and fix people’s view on her after everyone worked out she’s a snake oil salesmen now.

sgibson5150 OP ,

Did you watch the video?

ItsAFake ,

I’ll watch it after work, but I’ll take everything she says with a grain of salt, she’s a proven liar when it comes to herself and her business.

sgibson5150 OP ,

If she’s a liar, she’s lying to bougie white women. She runs a business. What about her is especially egregious? Indulge me if you would. I’m genuinely curious.

ItsAFake , (edited )

Scamming people out of there their money for way over priced crap is a shit act even if it’s scamming people you don’t like.

sgibson5150 OP ,

That’s capitalism. Was the George Foreman grill a high quality product?

Edit: Had an extra “was”

bostonbananarama ,

Was the George Foreman grill a high quality product?

Yes. It was a grill. When you plugged it in it heated up and cooked food, exactly what they claimed. Unlike her “snake oil”.

sgibson5150 OP ,

Look, of course it’s snake oil. But think about this. John McAfee sold more snake oil than anyone. Some people think he’s a folk hero. What’s the difference?

StunningGoggles ,

I haven’t heard anyone say anything positive about McAfee in maybe a decade so I while I agree with your premise I disagree with this example

sgibson5150 OP ,

Solomon himself would not have been as fair. I should have expected that from someone with such stunning eyewear. 😎

ItsAFake ,

George Forman wasn’t selling a healthy lifestyle based on lies, he was selling a hotplate that cooked food, now if he came out and said it had miraculous effects on your body while pushing a cheap af hotplate you’d have a good argument.

Also I’ve noticed you seem to really want to make it look like anyone who says anything negative about her company is doing it for sexist reasons which is bullshit, Alex Jones is doing the exact same shit she does and he’s a piece of shit for it as well, any person regardless of their gender identity or cultural background that knowingly and willingly rips off their customers are scum, even if I happen to like them or not.

Hell if Keanu Reeves started selling snake oil bullshit products I’d call him a piece of shit scam artist.

Stop trying to make something out of nothing,.

sgibson5150 OP ,

He said it “knocked out the fat” implying that it was a healthier alternative to conventional grilling. I’m sure there are a number of videos exist on YouTube that will back me up if you don’t believe me, but I don’t think you really care about that.

And of course it isn’t inherently sexist to say what she sells is snake oil, but that wasn’t my point.

ItsAFake ,

He was a boxer, that was a slogan based off of him being a boxer, if it was the Tony Hawks grill they’d probably use " Grind the fat away", plus there is actual recorded proof that having less fats in your food is healthier for you, shoving a special egg up you doesn’t have anything backing it up besides a late 90s/early 00s celebrity.

sgibson5150 OP ,

Truly, you have shown me the error of my ways. I hereby confer on you the titles of Internet Debate Champion and Least Misogynistic Person. Go forth and relish your victory. ✌️

ItsAFake ,

You’re a weird one aren’t ya.

Lucidlethargy ,

Dude I’ve had the same George foreman grill for over a decade… That was such a bad example.

otp ,

Scamming people out of there money

Scamming people out of here money is a shit act, too!

ItsAFake ,

Note to self: Spell check if you’re gonna talk shit about someone.

@Noite_Etion@lemmy.world avatar

If she’s a liar, she’s lying to bougie white women.

Oh that’s fine, she only takes advantage of people I don’t like. I’m sure Trump supporters say the same thing too.

Son_of_dad ,

I rather not feed her attention
