Gwenyth Paltrow 'doesn't give a s**t about haters' Gweneth Paltrow says she doesn't care what you think about her. GWENYTH Paltrow has taken a swipe at her critics, declaring she doesnt "give a s**t" what strangers think about her or her parenting abilities. The 41-year-old actress made the comments in a candid interview with British magazine Red, in the wake of reports that Vanity Fair is preparing to publish a damning profile of her. The older I get, I realize it doesn't matter what people who don't know you think. It doesn't matter. You're wasting your energy," Paltrow says in Red's December issue. It's like, if your partner comes to you - or your best friend - and says, 'Listen, I want to talk about something you did that hurt me, or I think you could improve,' sit down and listen to what they have to say. But some friend of so-and-sos - it's like, who gives a s**t? Paltrow, a mother of two, also says it's not fair that some parents brand others as "terrible" for juggling the demands of their children with a busy schedule. It doesn't matter what anyone else thinks. It makes me cross. I personally think that the work-life balance for a woman should be exactly what she feels is right for her," she says. ..." So if anyone is going to ask my advice, I'd say, do what is right for you and don't give a s**t what anyone else thinks."
