Gwyneth Paltrow's bikini pic makes her celebrity friends freak out

Gwyneth Paltrow has proved there was no need to hire models for her new G.Label swimwear collection.

The actress was pictured posing in a black bikini on the Instagram account of her lifestyle site, Goop, with a straight-to-the-point “Tap to shop #GLabel Swim” caption.

🧨 Tap to shop #GLabel Swim.

Though the photo was meant to promote the swimwear she launched for the upcoming summer season, the reactions to the photo had much more to do with her apparently backwards-ageing body. Plenty of Paltrow's celebrity friends jumped in to pay compliments to the actress-turned-lifestyle entrepreneur.

Jennifer Garner would like to buy Paltrow’s abs instead of the swimsuit. “The suit is not [what] I would like to purchase. Abs for $20.00, please.”

Demi Moore sent a whole bunch of fire emojis. “Omg you are something else 🔥🔥🔥😘”

Courtney Cox was just here for it all. “Woah!!! Stunning!”

Michelle Pfeiffer applauded. “Yowza!🔥🔥👏👏👏”

Elle Macpherson (known as 'The Body' herself) appeared to bestow the title on Paltrow. “Body ! 💥💥💥💥”

The swimsuits are advertised on Paltrow's website as being, “designed to smooth and shape right where you want them to.”

The specific top Paltrow is wearing on Instagram can be purchased on Goop for $170 and the bottoms for $150 – body not included. Sadly.
