Gwyneth Paltrow learned everything she needed to know in high school

h, Gwyneth.  Is there any subject that you will not deign to speak of with condescension? Gwyneth wants us to know that she didn’t need formal training as an actress - she was just that good, naturally.  You know why?  Because her mother is Blythe Danner, and yours isn’t.  You can go to The Actor’s Studio and study Stanislavski, because you are not Blythe Danner’s daughter and acting simply isn’t in your blood.  And even then, you didn’t deign to attend to Spence Academy, which Goop claims trained her for every single thing in her life, basically.  Isn’t that funny?  Everything Goop needed to learn about the world, she learned from being a popular girl in a private high school.  That says it all, right?

Gwyneth Paltrow learned everything about acting from her mother, Blythe Danner, and her own instincts. At the Spence School last week, Paltrow told students she has no training beyond what she learned there: “I studied drama here, but I didn’t study it past being at Spence … My mother … has done a lot of stage work. I got a great education from her … and growing up here where I went to the theater all the time. I’ve developed my own technique, but the most important thing is your instincts.”
