Gwyneth Paltrow: ‘I’ll have a cappuccino’ as a diet cheat

Gwyneth Paltrow has once again proved how out of touch she is in a new interview where she explains how she maintains her appearance.

The “Iron Man 3” actress explained to British Cosmopolitan that she stocks up on French beauty products and stays slender by constantly exercising and allowing herself a cappuccino as a guilty pleasure.

While the Oscar winner said she “doesn’t like” using Botox (“I think on some faces it works, but it’s when you can really see it that it starts to look fake”), she told the magazine that her beauty secret lies in French beauty products.

“I stock up on products from French pharmacies,” Paltrow explained. “They have amazing burn creams and makeup removers. I love how French actresses age but don’t really do anything about it – it’s beautiful.”

Paltrow, a devotee of the Tracy Anderson workout method, continued on how food and exercise contribute her youthful looks.

“I think diet and exercise play a huge part in aging well. I like the Tracy Anderson Method – it’s really fun and a great way to burn calories!” Paltrow shared.

“If I’m traveling, I do the DVDs, and she has five trainers in London. I also have a [radio-frequency-based] facial treatment called Thermage, which makes a big difference – it’s nice to boost collagen.”

Paltrow, famed for her low-carb, gluten-free diet, does allow herself the occasional cheat.

“I love Starbucks – I’ll have a cappuccino,” she said. “My guilty snack in the UK is cheese, and in America, things on buns: a lobster roll and French fries, or a turkey burger with cheese.”
