Gwyneth Paltrow's New Show Goes Deep Into Vaginas, Sort Of Like A $66 Jade Egg (NSFW)
WHAT'S IN THE BOX?!?!?!
That's right, folks. It's the graphic for Gwyneth Paltrow's new Netflix show, The Goop Lab, and it very much alludes to her being deep inside a layer of perky, pink vaginas.
According to NBC News:
Netflix announced that the six-episode series on Gwyneth Paltrow’s luxury lifestyle brand Goop will be released later this month. The announcement came with what some are calling a "terrifying" first trailer and poster.
The trailer teased exorcisms, psychedelics, psychic mediums and energy healing, with one woman claiming that she was able to complete years of therapy "in about five hours." The show also promises to focus on sexual health, as suggested by its promotional poster poster which shows Paltrow standing in the middle of what appears to be a vagina.
The trailer also highlights segments on 'cold therapy' & 'orgasm workshops', and words like 'dangerous' and 'unregulated' get tossed around as hip, clubby music plays in the background.
To give you an idea, here's some photos from the trailer with little context:

'YEARS OF THERAPY' IN JUST ONE DAY:

WALK THE PLANK:
Well hey, I'm not adverse to psychedelics, orgasms, being aware of your vagina health, or poor life choices involving dangerous & unregulated things, but the rest of that stuff sounds more up Metaphysical Meagan's alley than mine. (The sun shines very directly into that alley.)
But ever the Big-J Journalist, I decided I couldn't judge unless I dove in to check it out for myself, and I gotta tell ya - it is HOT in there. 101.3 degrees. But a decidedly dry heat?? Unexpected.
My knee jerk reaction is that it's a bunch of 'perfect', wealthy, 'ladies who lunch' who have the luxury of money & time to go on self-care journeys that are out of reach for the average woman, although they act like it's something, like, everyone NEEDS to try. As a shameless sucker & ogler of that world in which I'll never live, I'll for sure be watching. Even if it's just to love hating it. Sort of like when I went to see Cats last weekend..
Others aren't loving it AT ALL since Paltrow's rich-people-crystal-vibes magazine Goop does things like convince women putting jade eggs in their vaginas is the way to go. Ya know, for chakra's sake. (*This is actually BAD for you & Goop was fined $145K for it.)
Whatever your take, there's no denying we've all been sucked right right up into Gwyneth's massive… marketing plan for the show.
Sincerely, stupid lady who just wrote a whole blog about it.
