Gwyneth Paltrow: Blue Ivy Carter “is going to be an entertainer!”

Yes, we’re still doing some backup coverage from the Oscars. So let’s keep talking about one of the most talked-about looks from the Oscars, Gwyneth Paltrow and goopy superhero cape, all by Tom Ford. Now that I’m some-odd 40 hours removed from Super-Goop’s cape, I do have to admit… it was a smart look, style-wise. If she had just gone with the Tom Ford gown, it would have been too plain, too bridal. With the cape, she really snazzed it up, though. Too bad she took off the cape for her presenting duties, and for the after-parties. I would have enjoyed it more if she rocked the cape all night.

In other Goop news, while Gwyneth was at the Governor’s Ball (just after the Oscars), she was asked about her BFF Beyonce and little Blue Ivy. Gwyneth deigned to speak about BIC!

She’s only seven-weeks-old, but Blue Ivy Carter is destined to become a star like her parents Beyonce Knowles and Jay-Z.

“She is going to be an entertainer,” Gwyneth Paltrow, 39, explained to Hollywood Life at the Governor’s Ball Sunday. “She just has this glow around her like her mother.”

Paltrow has been close pals with the hip-hop power couple for more than a decade. “Beyonce is doing great,” Paltrow said of the first-time mom, who welcomed Blue Ivy in New York City on January 7. “She’s just a natural at being a mom.”

As for Blue Ivy? “She’s stunning,” Paltrow gushed. “She has the most beautiful eyes.”

Though Paltrow wowed at Sunday’s 84th Annual Academy Awards in L.A. wearing a Tom Ford design, Knowles, 30, and Jay-Z, 42, were on the opposite coast dining in New York City’s West Village Saturday afternoon.

I hate it when people talk about how a baby is going to be a “star”. I know it’s just filler chatter and it doesn’t mean anything, but I feel like it’s wrong to put that on a damn baby, you know? What if Blue Ivy wants to be a teacher?

Oh, and I know CB will enjoy this – I found this interview with Gwyneth’s makeup artist for the Oscars, who is kind of delusional about how Gwyneth’s makeup situation looks so, so rough.

Gwyneth Paltrow sported an “elegantly bronzed” look on the Oscars red carpet, says her make-up artist. The actress dazzled at the 84th Annual Academy Awards in a chic caped Tom Ford gown and minimal accessories. Gwyneth worked with beauty professional Leslie Lopez to achieve her stunning make-up.

Leslie explained she wanted to create a look that “complemented the dress and was still sophisticated enough for the red carpet,” describing it as “elegantly bronzed”.

According to website Beauty High, the make-up artist started with NARS Pure Radiant Tinted Moisturiser in order to give Gwyneth a “dewy base”. She then created a radiant glow with Super Orgasm Illuminator on the “apples of her cheeks”.

For the eyes, Leslie applied Alhambra Duo Eyeshadow on the eyelid for a “pop of gold colour”. She then added Maybelline’s brown liquid eyeliner in the lash line. She finished the overall look with NARS Larger Than Life Volumizing Mascara and used a slick of gloss on Gwyneth’s pout.

Meanwhile, hairstylist Adir Abergel created a “sleek and modern interpretation of the low-nape ponytail.” He prepped Gwyneth’s hair with Fekkai Coiff Ironless Straightening Balm from the roots to ends of her damp hair. He then created a deep side parting using a comb and blow dried the hair without a brush, making sure to “keep the part and desired shape to the hair.”

Adir then flat ironed the hair until it was “completely smooth” and pulled the hair back into a low ponytail. The hair professional chose to allow the elastic hairbands to show as he wanted to give Gwyneth’s tresses a bit of “raw edge”.

The rubber band in her hair just killed me – that was worse than the too-orange makeup (which was caked on, as you could see when she was on stage). There’s nothing “raw edge” about wearing a rubber band in your hair at THE OSCARS. Especially with that sleek Tom Ford look – the rubber band was just tacky. Peasant-y, if you will.

Oh – people claim that Chris Martin came out to party with Goop after the Oscars. I haven’t seen one photo of him, though.

    There is a picture of Chris Martin at the VF after-Oscars party on the VF website.

  2. Lis says:

    Ick. Planning childrens’ lives is just tacky.

  3. Lem says:

    Unfortunately goopster is probably correct but I’ll leave that to my grandchildren to stress about

  4. Lis says:

    Yay! Goop FINALLY changed her hair.

    I hope she keeps it this way, because the last hairstyle (which she had for, what?, 15+ years) was super unflattering.

    @Kaiser – “What if Blue Ivy wants to be a teacher?”
    There is no way in fame-ho, over-achieving, push the brand at all costs hell that Bey and JZ would ever let their blue diamond of a baby be something as common as a teacher!

  6. NeNe says:

    Gwyn needs to remove her lips from Beyonce’s ass.

  7. Jackie says:

    her make up looked so dated.

    i don’t like to admit it, but i really liked her outfit. ugh, i hate when that happens!

  8. TheOriginalVictoria says:

    If someone in Europe gets it, I just don’t understand how so many of us in America don’t.

    Like I said, Gwynnie gets cool points for hanging out with “cool” black people with one being a “former” drug dealer and one being a pop tart.

    And Beyonce gets cool points for hanging out with WASPY/JAPS who are considered the cream of the crop.

    The love licking each other’s butts.

  9. Blue says:

    I swear if Chris Martin wasn’t in Coldplay, I would think he was a figment of her imagination.

  10. Annaloo says:

    Bey & Jay probably paid Goop in promised street cred to say that. Goop’s high golden words are really Blue’s first ad for her first album which will be released when she is 4.

    It’s meant to be. Blue will be an entertainer! As will Apple, Moses, Shiloh, Suri, Harlow, Kingston, Nahla, Violet, Hazel, Phinneaus, Seraphina, Zuma, Ryder, Moses, Pax, Sunday Rose, Zahara, Knox, Viv, etc…they’re all going to be entertainers/fashion moguls/musicians… gah I’m bored already.

    • RdyfrmycloseupmrDvlle says:

      LOL!!! THIS! ……made me laugh so loud! Look at that list of ridiculous names. The NAMES alone just drip with unbridled pretention and affectation. Like, give us all a brake with these dumb ass names already. And, the assumption that these kids will take up where their parents left off, Im sorry, is this a new class of royalty or something? last time I checked you had to have looks, talent and charisma. So, get to the back of the line and pay your dues children.

  11. Astrid says:

    I’m fighting the urge to straighten out the shoulders of the dress!

  12. Jaxx says:

    All that blow drying and ironing and hair goop to end up with THAT?

  13. Gene Parmesan says:

    Hey Kaiser i saw one pic of him (chris) on the vanity fair website gallery for their 2012 oscar bash. theyr werent together though he was walking into the party

  14. Dusty says:

    Why do people make stupid comments like this. Unless she is psychic, she does not know the path this little lady’s life will take.

  15. girl says:

    I hate it when people talk that way about babies. I agree. They are putting too much on them. Not that this one comment condemns this kid to a life of rehab and probation but no wonder celebrity kids end up the way they many times do.

    One of my children was born on the 4th of July. I swear, my eyes hurt more from their rolling for every time I heard, “She’s going to be a little FIRE-CRACKER” than the whole rest of my body from giving birth.

  16. Susie Q says:

    “What if Blue Ivy wants to be a teacher?” Or what if she has no talent? Although that probably won’t matter, look at Kate Hudson for one, she has no talent but is a big star because of who her parents are.

  17. lucy2 says:

    I hated the exposed hair band. Though from some of those photos, I think she should do a shorter cut again. Agree the makeup wasn’t great.
    I kind of like the dress, but she’s so annoying.

  18. Eleonor says:

    BIC can’t be a star, there can be only a diva in that family, Beyonce has just taken the place.

  19. JD says:

    This may be off-topic, but I hate when manufacturers give makeup tacky names like “Super Orgasm Highlighter.” Or “Orgasm Flush”.

    Gah…sounds like a name though of by and for 12 year old boys.

  20. JessSaysNo says:

    I guess Blue has no say in the matter.

  21. neelyo says:

    Geez I can’t stand this woman. Her constant name dropping of fellow celebs is nauseating. Anyone see her on the red carpet talking about getting ready with her new bestie Cameron Diaz?

    It seems like Paltrow goes through celebrity friends like Madonna. Every couple of months there’s someone new she won’t shut the fuck up about.

  22. aprayerforthewildatheart says:

    Goop’s spoken about B&J a few times. Do they ever say a thing about her? If so, I’ve never heard it, she just sounds like she’s being a name-dropper.

  23. original kate says:

    does this chick EVER have a conversation where she doesn’t drop a celeb name? no wonder chris martin is always absent from these events. i would rather languish in a self-induced coma than listen to goop’s jabbering.

  24. normades says:

    A natural super talented child prodigy like Willow Smith *eye role*.

  25. anytime says:

    just like you entertain me, dame poop, with your driveling nonsense through goop online magazine!

    Very good written article. It will be valuable to anyone who utilizes it, as well as yours truly :). Keep doing what you are doing – for sure i will check out more posts.
