Just occasionally, the world of the celebrity hits you with some information that genuinely blows your mind. So it is with Gwyneth Paltrow's latest update on her music tastes. "Between my junior and senior year of high school I discovered Niggaz With Attitude, which became an obsession . . . I learned every word of Straight Outta Compton. I can't remember what I had for dinner last night," she added, possibly because what she had for dinner last night was 400g of clean green mung bean tea with 100g of licorice in it followed by a lukewarm water neti pot sinus cleanse, "but I can remember every lyric of Fuck Tha Police." Obviously, one shouldn't be shocked at the wide-ranging appeal of hip-hop but LiS confesses it never suspected the woman offering her recipe for ginger and scallion soup and telling you how to arrange your wardrobe perfectly on GOOP was doing so while listening to Eazy E's own prescription for "nourishing the inner aspect", Nutz On Ya Chin.
