Gwyneth Paltrow can’t seem to flee controversy!
Over time, the Goop founder has repeatedly found herself at the middle of backlash over her opinions and even a few of her brand’s decisions.
Most recently, she sparked reactions after questioning society’s fascination with wealthy tech men. As criticism over those remarks continues, one other controversy tied to her brand has resurfaced online.
Paltrow’s health-focused delivery restaurant sparked fresh controversy last weekend after sharing a collaboration campaign on social media with Anna Delvey.
The clip opened with a close-up of an ankle monitor strapped to a pair of legs in stockings and black heels as a doorbell rang within the background. The video transitioned to point out the brand’s paper bag sitting outside a closed door.
Wearing a white shirt tucked right into a black skirt, convicted fraudster Delvey opened the door. “Can’t exit? Don’t be so dramatic,” she told the camera before slowly shutting the door.
Delvey, whose real name is Anna Sorokin, became infamous for posing as a wealthy heiress to infiltrate elite social circles while scamming banks and hotels.
She was convicted in 2019 and served 19 months in prison before being released to accommodate arrest in Latest York City in 2022, where she is required to wear an ankle monitor, in response to the Day by day Mail.
Fans Blast Gwyneth Paltrow Over Collaboration With Anna Delvey
The post gained attention as several web users accused the Oscar winner of giving a criminal a platform.
One fan identified, “So that is….glamorizing crime.” A second observer highlighted Delvey’s crime history, writing, ‘She scammed a bunch of individuals, and I can’t even imagine she’s a ‘celebrity.’ Come on, Goop! Do higher!”
While this social media user called the ad “distasteful,” a second branded it “horrible,” before warning, “Stop platforming criminals.”
This critic added, “Glorifying a con artist (who preyed on regular people, not only the rich) is an interesting look that claims quite a bit about this company. What, are you hoping to get lessons in grifting from her?”
One other observer chimed in, “I don’t like promoting a criminal!” while this fan called the post “not goop-like.”
As fans proceed to criticize Paltrow’s affiliation with Delvey, it adds to the backlash she received over her remarks about society’s obsession with tech billionaires.
During a discussion with Kara Swisher in a recent episode of “The Goop Podcast,” Paltrow questioned why people idolize “these super wealthy white dudes” who influence society without concern for the results of their actions.
Very quickly, Paltrow received heat as many critics saw her comments as hypocritical. Per The Blast, some web users identified the irony, provided that the 53-year-old business mogul is incredibly wealthy and comes from a privileged background, she can also be a part of the elite class she criticizes.
