Gwyneth Paltrowreally stepped in goop when she offeredTimothée Chalametskincare advice for a problem hedoesn'thave.
It all came about when, in the first few days of shooting their new filmMarty Supremetogether, the makeup used to create his character's acne scarring was so good that Paltrow thought it was real. Just to be nice, she suggested the skincare technique of micro-needling to help heal the supposed "scars."
Recalling the story to host Gerrad Hall onThe Awardistpodcast, Paltrow said, "Yeah, and, imagine I was up close to him, and I was like,my gosh, because when I had seen him [before], his skin was always so beautiful. And I was like, I didn't realize that he has this scarring on his face."
Laughing at her error, Paltrow then explained her costar's hilarious reaction to her not-so-needed advice. "And then he's like, 'Are you insane? Like, this is makeup,'" she said. "He's like, 'I have good skin.' I was like, 'I'msosorry, I'msosorry.' Yeah, [the makeup was] amazing."
The wellness guru and Goop founder previously said onThe Run-Through with Voguepodcast, "InMarty Supreme, Timothée has pockmarks, and they made his eyes beady with contacts and glasses. In real life, he has beautiful skin. He made a comment, and I was like, 'Oh, you can do micro-needling for that.' He's like, 'This is makeup.' I was like, 'Oh, s---.'"
"The makeup was so good that I thought he had little acne scars," Paltrow continued. "Anyway, I think it would be interesting to one day do something like that."
In the upcoming awards hopeful from director Josh Safdie, Paltrow plays Kay Stone, a wealthy socialite and fading movie star who forges an unlikely connection with the younger ping-pong phenom played by Chalamet.

Paltrow, 52, previously teased a rather juicy tidbit about her character,tellingVanity Fairshe plays "this woman who is married to someone who is in the ping-pong mafia." She and 29-year-old Chalamet's Marty "meet, and she's had a pretty tough life, and I think he breathes life back into her, but it's kind of transactional for them both."
"We have a lot of sex in this movie," she added. "There's a lot —a lot."
Per the logline, the film is officially described as the story of "a young man with a dream no one respects" who "goes to hell and back in pursuit of greatness."
