Mary Kate Hearon is accusing Gwyneth Paltrow of stealing the idea for her website GOOP. You know the blog where she tells the unwashed masses how to be like her, including what to do if you get consitipated. And Hearon is mad about it and using Facebook as her forum to complain.
"This is pretty scandalous. People deserve to know [Paltrow's] idea isn't her own - or creative, for that matter! . . . A few years ago, I had e-mailed Gwyneth's best friend . . . when I was living in London (developing The Weekly Beet, which I started in 2004). I asked her to e-mail Gwyneth The Beet because I was excited for her to read it since she was one of the few celebs into alternative medicine."
Hearon then met Paltrow, but "the way she treated me was so scary! She was sooooooo nasty to me, it was scandalous! [Husband] Chris [Martin], the utmost gentleman, stood to shake my hand, but she smirked and was silent when I asked how her dinner was . . . I never thought in a million years she'd . . . create her own site very similar to The Weekly Beet . . . [Goop has] the therapies I've tried, the foods I love, the detoxes that work! A lot of the same stuff!"
But according to Page Six the websites aren't as similar as Hearon claims. And a friend of Hearon says that Paltrow never has even met the woman.
