Gwyneth Paltrow’s stolen content scandal
It looks like Gwyneth Paltrow might be entering the realm of the crazy, ego-driven, uber-star. She’s gotten so into herself lately that she doesn’t even need to abide by the basic rules of a moral society. Paltrow has been catching a lot of heat for her new health and wellness newsletter, Goop, and now it turns out the content of said newsletter may not have come entirely from Gwyneth’s own open little mind.
Writer and nutritionist Mary Kent Hearon insists the ‘Iron Man‘ actresses’ lifestyle site - which is dedicated to health and ‘nourishing the inner aspect’ - is a copy of her website WeeklyBeet, which was launched in 2004.
Mary said in a statement: “I am shocked that someone whom I looked up to and so admired for her openness about alternative medicine, a) treated me very rudely, and b) proceeded to produce a concept which, in my opinion, is similar to The Beet, especially after being asked to bless mine. That to me is not light!” [Source]
No, Mary, that is definitely not “light.” In fact, I would say that, should the accusations prove true, Gwyneth might find herself very much in the dark. Not surprisingly, Paltrow has flat out denied the thievery.
