Onstage at SXSW with CNNanchor Poppy Harlow, the Goop founder revealed that Jeff Bezos heard that she mentioned him ghosting her in the Wall Street Journal: “In the Wall Street Journal, they asked me about my mentors, like you have, and I said, ‘Oh sometimes I, like, cold call people,’ and they said, ‘Well has anyone not called you back?’ And I said, ‘Yes, Jeff Bezos.’” Apparently he regretted it. “So after that came out, I got an email and the subject was ‘Jeff Bezos.’ And the sender was Jeff Bezos! The body of the email said, ‘Hi there Gwyneth, the Wall Street Journal told me you wanna talk to me.’ So, I wrote him back and then he wrote me and then I said, ‘I would die for the opportunity to sit down and ask you a bunch of questions’ … and he never wrote me back,” she explained. But no worries, Bezos, Paltrow gets. “He’s got a lot going on,” she said.
