As you may have seen on social media, Leonardo DiCaprio has started the #ALLINCHALLENGE which encourages celebrities to raise funds for COVID-19 relief.
Celebrities like Drake and Ellen DeGeneres have already participated.
Now, actress and lifestyle brand owner Gwyneth Paltrow is doing her part.
She announced on Instagram this weekend that she will be auctioning off an old Calvin Klein Dress she wore to the Oscars back in 2000.
So cute, right?!
She wrote on Insta, “In an effort to focus on organizations providing food assistance, I have joined the #allinchallenge which is raising money for @mealsonwheelsamerica, @nokidhungry, @wckitchen, @feedingamerica and @americasfoodfund,” Gwyneth wrote.
“I am donating a dress I wore to the Oscars (and that holds great sentimental value!) which I will personally hand to you over a cup of tea or a glass of wine. Go to allinchallenge.com to bid as 100% of funds will go to help Americans currently experiencing food insecurity.”
However, fans were quick to remember Gwyneth once shaded this exact dress back in 2013.
“It’s an okay dress but not Oscars material. I chose it because I wanted to disappear that year,” she wrote on her lifestyle site, goop.
Fans REMEMBERED this diss, and let Gwyneth know in the comments.
