Gwyneth Paltrow is like the gift that keeps on giving, isn’t she? This, of course, all depends on your definition of a “gift” is. Of course, if you consider Goop.com, Glee cameos, and the ending of Country Strong to be priceless trinkets, than Paltrow’s latest offering to the masses ought to make you happier than a kid on Christmas morning (especially if that kid happened to want a copy of Duets).

Yes, Paltrow has opted to “join the 21st century” and, in turn, make Twitter and Facebook accounts. There’s not much to report on thus far, besides a photo of the Oscar-winning actress standing in what appears to be the outdoor kitchen of the future… today! with son Moses and a video in which she reports she is trying to hail a cab in New York City. (See it below!) Followers, including some other famous tweeters like Minka Kelly and Nicole Richie, will wait with bated breath to see what she says next. (“This is my second Tweet!”, perhaps?)

Whatever it is, we’ll surely treasure it.

Will you follow Gwyneth Paltrow on Twitter and/or friend her on Facebook, PopWatchers? Do you think she’ll be able to convince BBF Jay-Z to join, too?

    I guess she felt she needed more ways to inform us that her life is way better than ours.

      Who cares. I can’t stand her phony, balony, non-acting, no voice skills. She rode on the back of her parents.

    “Baited breath” or “bated breathe”…the first one sounds like you had herring for lunch….

  • Will

    I tend to think that this whole popular obsession with hating Gwyneth is a lot more annoying than Gwyneth herself. Let it go.
