Gwyneth Paltrow broke her silence on the image she believes the world has created of her which she doesn’t even recognize herself.

In a recent chat on The Cutting Room Floor podcast, the 52-year-old actress admitted she has lived for years with a version of herself that the public has “projected.”

“The internet calls you the ultimate almond mom, you know that, right?” host Recho Omondi asked.

“I don't know where they got that. Like pelvic floor health, gut health, plant medicine, conscious uncoupling,” Gwyneth replied teasingly.

But Paltrow confessed that no one can truly know her reality.

“No one will understand me until I'm dead," she asserted.

When asked if she was in on the “joke” of her brand, Gwyneth responded with a wink, “What do you think?”

Recho then took a moment to recall Paltrow's portrayal as “precious,” “patrician,” and that she is admired for her background.

Gwyneth pushed back, saying, “I have never created my own narrative. I’m aware that that exists. But I have had a really strange life in this respect. I have no idea who people are talking about. I’ve lived for many decades now with this avatar that’s, like, projected on very, very strongly, and I don’t know why.”

Now the actress said she doesn't put the energy to correct the misconceptions about her, "We’re all human beings, so it hurts… but lately I’ve been really trying to almost meditate on this idea of letting go,” she explained.
