Earlier this week, Gwyneth Paltrow stopped by “Jimmy Kimmel Live” to give everybody the run-down of her upcoming Netflix show, “The Goop Lab”.
But Jimmy was more interested in some of the products that Gwyn has been selling these days…
For example, you might already be familiar with her recently released candle, “This Smells Like My Vagina”.
Within days of Gwyneth releasing her $75 candle , it sold out on Goop and Heretic entirely.
Interestingly enough, the candle doesn’t actually smell like her vagina — I mean, there’s no way to know that for sure, but its scent is described as a “funny, gorgeous, sexy, and beautifully unexpected scent”.
It contains notes of “geranium, citrusy bergamot, and cedar absolutes juxtaposed with Damask rose and ambrette seed.”
“One day, we were smelling different fragrances and I was joking around, and I smelled something and I said…,” Gwyneth explained to Jimmy.
“As a joke!,” she added . “But then I was like, wouldn’t that be cool if somebody actually had the guts to do that?”
“What a punk-rock, feminist statement, to have that on your table,” she continued.
“And then he made it. I thought he just made me one as a joke, but then the next thing I knew, it was on my website .”
“It’s not really supposed to smell like a vagina,” she said — confirming that the name of the candle is just that, a name.
She went on to reveal what her children think about her scandalous products , which also include adult toys.
Gwyneth shares two children with Coldplay singer, Chris Martin. Apple, 15, and Moses, 13.
“I think it must be pretty surreal for them to be the kids of somebody, well, both of their parents are in the public eye,” she said .
“It’s interesting to watch them sort of evolve along with our careers as they go.”
Surprisingly, Moses is keeping an open mind about his mum selling adult toys online.
“My son said to me the other day, ‘At first I thought it was really embarrassing that there were vibrators on your website,'” she said.
“‘And now I think it’s a great thing !'”
“He’s like, ‘You’re a feminist, mom. You’re a bad-[expletive].’ I was like, ‘Thank you!'”
Sounds like Moses is a 13-year-old boy wise beyond his years, if you ask me!
Gwyneth admitted that she wasn’t quite that mature when she was his age.
“I was just trying to figure it all out, and I was super insecure,” she said .
“It’s a tough age, that middle school,” she added.
On The Ellen Show , Chris Martin revealed that he accidentally embarrassed his and Gwyneth’s daughter, Apple, at her work recently .
“I just went to see. And I thought, ‘I better buy something.’ So I took a T-shirt from the rack and I lined up in the queue,” he explained.
“She was at the check out, and there were two check outs, and she saw me and she went like this, [mouths, ‘Dad, get out!’]. And I felt terrible, so I moved to the other line .”
So, while Moses is, evidently, a difficult teenager to embarrass, Apple on the other hand — not so much.
Growing up with celebrity parents sounds like it has it’s obvious perks and downsides.
