Video: Gwyneth Paltrow Talks To Ellen About Her Pubic Hair 'Disaster'
Gwyneth Paltrow, actress and goop purveyor, says that she was "totally flabbergasted" when she heard that People magazine was honoring her with their cover for their "Most Beautiful People" edition.
But not long after the cover came out, Paltrow showed up to the "Iron Man 3" premiere rocking an incredibly sheer (and kind of bizarre) dress that she said sent her "scrambling for a razor." Oy. She explains the process of getting ready that day: "So I went from being the most beautiful to the most humiliated in one day."
She joked: "I work a 70s vibe."
Here's the full clip of Paltrow treading into hilarious TMI territory:

At another point on the show she talked about what it's like to be named "World's Most Beautiful Woman" by People. She told Ellen, "Honestly, I thought this was a joke. I read it three times, because I was like this is not for me. It was actually psychologically interesting, because for a minute, I really thought, like, someone was playing a joke on me...I talked about it with my shrink."

At LAist, we believe in journalism without censorship and the right of a free press to speak truth to those in power. Our hard-hitting watchdog reporting on local government, climate, and the ongoing housing and homelessness crisis is trustworthy, independent and freely accessible to everyone thanks to the support of readers like you.
But the game has changed: Congress voted to eliminate funding for public media across the country. Here at LAist that means a loss of $1.7 million in our budget every year. We want to assure you that despite growing threats to free press and free speech, LAist will remain a voice you know and trust. Speaking frankly, the amount of reader support we receive will help determine how strong of a newsroom we are going forward to cover the important news in our community.
