Gwyneth Paltrow dishes about her twelve week detox program and her clothes-obsessed daughter, Apple, while David Beckham remembers his cringe-worthy moments in fashion- Anyone remember that leather outfit?
Gwyneth Paltrow’s daughter is “clothes-obsessed”.
The 39-year-old Oscar-winning actress – who also has son Moses, five, with Coldplay rocker husband Chris Martin – admits she started archiving her couture gowns for seven-year-old Apple before she even existed.
She said, “I’ve been saving my clothes for her since before she was born. I was like, ‘I’ll bet you anything I’ll have a daughter, and she’ll be a really cool butch lesbian and be so above clothes’, and I got a very clothes-obsessed child.”
“So if she’s a lesbian, she’s a lipstick lesbian. She doesn’t like anything avant-garde at all. She likes anything that’s pretty, pretty, pretty or has a bow or a ruffle or is pink.”
The ‘Goop’ author has just embarked on a 12-week detox programme which means gluten, dairy and sugar are all off the menu.
Explaining the drastic measure, she told Harper’s Bazaar, “I have a lot of inflammation in my system, so I’m not having anything I’m allergic to.”
Listing the signs that it’s time for a system clear-out, the self-confessed foodie added, “I’ll wake up exhausted; I can feel my adrenal cortex being really high. When I get into bed, my heart will pound, my skin won’t be good, I’ll feel cranky, and then I’ll just know it’s time.”
David Beckham still cringes about the time he and wife Victoria wore matching leather outfits.
The couple – who have been married 13 years – donned his and hers black Versace biker suits for one of the fashion house’s parties in 1999.
Looking back on some of his style choices, David, 36, admits it was a low point.
He said, “Me and Victoria wore matching black leather outfits once. They were Versace. But that’s one when I look back and am like, ‘What were we thinking?'”
“We laugh about that one. I remember that it’s really good until you do it as a couple.”
The father-of-four has never been shy of making a statement, having even once worn a sarong for a night out.
He said, “I look back on some stuff and think I can’t believe I actually wore that. I have no regrets, though – I knew at the time it was good.”
But he insists his choices have nothing to do with his 37-year-old fashion designer wife.
Talking to H&M Life magazine, he explained, “I was [once] a pageboy and had a choice between wearing some boring old suit or a pair of knickerbockers with ballerina tights and slippers.
So I went with the tights. It’s not that I always wanted to be different, but I knew what I liked.”
Suffice to say the king of Armani Underwear has come a long way since then!
