Max Greenfield (aka Schmidt from New Girl) On the Injustice Shown to Men’s Fashion at Awards Shows

While Schmidt may be the most irritating character on Fox sitcom The New Girl (or on any show ever), it turns out he’s actually a super awesome person IRL. His tweets are hilarious and apparently he occasionally guest edits Gwyneth Paltrow’s GOOP. If that fact alone is not enough to convince you of his awesomeness, this hilarious column he wrote for GOOP about his Emmys experience–in which we learn about his love of Tom Ford, Thom Browne, Gwyneth and more–will.

Gwyneth Paltrow to the New York Times: I Wrote My Cookbook Myself!

Gwyneth Paltrow wants everyone to know that she wrote My Father’s Daughter, her debut cook book, herself. In her first tweet since her Oscars Tom Ford debut, Paltrow wrote “Love @nytimes dining section but this weeks facts need checking. No ghost writer on my cookbook, I wrote every word myself.”

Her defensive tweet was in response to a New York Times article by Julia Moskin, which says celebrities are able to churn out lots of cook books because they aren’t actually writing them. She gives Gwyneth Paltrow as an example and says Paltrow’s ghostwriter is Julia Turshen, who she mentions is currently working on a second book with the actress. So what exactly did Turshen do? Gwyneth sort of explains that in the book with the following author’s note:

Gwyneth Paltrow ‘Enters the 21st Century,’ Joins Facebook and Twitter

Our online dose of Gwyneth Paltrow wisdom has been thus far limited to her weekly GOOP newsletter and various clips of her doing ridiculous things on talk shows, like rapping. Not anymore. Gwyneth is taking the world of social media by storm–she just opened Facebook and Twitter accounts.

Her first tweet and Facebook wall post are the same–a video of her walking down an NYC street holding her phone at a not-so-flattering angle, giggling about how she has entered the 21st century.
