Gwyneth Paltrow prefers British dinner talk (1 Viewer)

[Guntrain]

Oscar-winning US actress Gwyneth Paltrow feels dinner talk is far more interesting in her adopted homeland Britain than back in her native country. "I love the English lifestyle, it's not as capitalistic as America. People don't talk about work and money, they talk about interesting things at dinner," she told "NS," the weekend magazine supplement of daily Portuguese newspaper Diario de Noticias on Saturday.

I would like to make some witty, insightful, charming and sarcastic comment about "Gwyneth" appreciation of British intelligence and culture, but I be livin’ in Southwest LA and I'm to “ig-nant” to had anything insightful this story, and would only bore poor Gwyneth…

...One second thought Ms. Paltrow I do have something intellegent to discuss with you over a nice British dinner: "Who dat? Who dat? Who dat say they gonna beat dem Saints?"

"I like living here because I don't fit into the bad side of American psychology. The British are much more intelligent and civilized than the Americans," the 34-year-old added.

Hmm.... well, she's hot so I guess she can say what she wants.

Maybe she'll adopt a fake British accent like Madonna.

Wanda, do you have any idea what it's like being English? Being so correct all the time, being so stifled by this dread of, of doing the wrong thing, of saying to someone "Are you married?" and hearing "My wife left me this morning," or saying, uh, "Do you have children?" and being told they all burned to death on Wednesday. You see, Wanda, we'll all terrified of embarrassment. That's why we're so... dead. Most of my friends are dead, you know, we have these piles of corpses to dinner. But you're alive, God bless you, and I want to be, I'm so fed up with all this.

Well, would you like to know what you'd be without us, the good ol' U.S. of A. to protect you? I'll tell you. The smallest ******* province in the Russian Empire, that's what. So don't call me stupid, lady. Just thank me.

Appropriate quotes from 1988's "A Fish Called Wanda". For the record, I like British people. I just don't care about wanna be British people.

Note to self:

If Paltrow ever comes 'round for dinner, don't talk about money or work.

Spoken like a true trustafarian.

What a silly person she's turned out to be.

 

[Saint by the Bay]

Shouldn't she say "British people are much more interesting than people in Hollywood?" I seriously doubt GP has even had many conversations or dinners with the average American. Heck, she probably hasn't had many with the average Brit for that matter.

Trustafarian, eh? I like it.

I'm sure this is based upon a real scientific sample.

She is vastly overrated looks wise.

I am as redblooded an American as you can get and I would have to agree at least in part with the comment about work and money discussion at dinner. How many times have you met people for the first time at dinner (or out for a beer, etc) and the first question asked is "Hey NCSaint - what do you do". I hate that.

Not really in dispute.

Dinner in Bammer: Gotdangit! How could Dale Urnhart Joonyr lose that rice to ******* Ri-chart Pitty Joonyr? Hay, after we finish dinner, let's go torque down the gear ratio on your Chivy Truck hun.

Dinner in Tennessee: I thank Rahdee Rahdee Paper should win that WWE tahtl next waik against the Idge.

Dinner in Kennabra: Say bra, you wanna go get an Icee after we finish off these 40's bra?

Dinner in London: Where do you think (insert "x" picture hanging in the Louvre or Rijks Museum) fits in with the operatic adaptation of King Richard III's plight comingled with the 60 years war in Germany?
