Brad Pitt's Shocking Pre-Gwyneth Paltrow Diet: What Goop Would Disapprove?
The Unholy Union of Gwyneth and Brad: A Tale of Two Diets
In a shocking revelation, Hollywood heartthrob Brad Pitt has spilled the beans on his pre-Gwyneth Paltrow diet that would have sent shockwaves through the wellness advocate's world. The 61-year-old actor, who dated Goop CEO Gwyneth Paltrow for three years, revealed that he survived off a diet of "bong loads" and Coca-Cola in the summer of 1994 - a far cry from his ex's strict Paleo diet regime.
Pitt dished about his unhealthy habits on Dax Shepard's Armchair Expert podcast, describing this period as "the most unhealthy time." The actor was feeling lost in his career after several disappointing projects and spent the summer partying with friends. He would wake up each day to indulge in a "bong load" and four Coca-Colas on ice - no food included! Pitt joked that he was trying to figure out what to do next, but it seems he found solace in his vices.
This reckless behavior came to an abrupt halt when Pitt read the script for David Fincher's thriller Se7en. He credits the project with reinvigorating his passion for acting and introducing him to his then-girlfriend Gwyneth - who would have been appalled by his diet choices.
Fast forward to today, Paltrow has built a wellness empire with Goop, promoting healthy living through supplements, green juice recipes, and strict dietary regimens. Her own diet has been the subject of much scrutiny, with recent years featuring coffee for breakfast, bone broth for lunch, and vegetables for dinner. However, in a surprising admission, she revealed that she's "a little bit sick" of her Paleo diet and is now embracing sourdough bread, cheese, and pasta - a far cry from Brad's 1994 diet.
Pitt and Paltrow's relationship was marked by drama and heartbreak. The couple got engaged in December 1996 when Gwyneth was just 24 years old, but parted ways just months later. Looking back on their relationship, Gwyneth has admitted that she felt too young to be with Brad and wasn't ready for the demands of a high-profile marriage.
After her split from Pitt, Gwyneth went on to marry Coldplay singer Chris Martin, only to "consciously uncouple" and divorce in 2014. She is now married to producer Brad Falchuk. Despite their tumultuous past, Paltrow and Pitt have kept in touch over the years, even reuniting for an interview in June 2022.
As we gaze upon this star-crossed pair, it's clear that their relationship was a complicated web of love, drama, and dietary differences. Who knew that Brad Pitt's reckless summer of 1994 would be the catalyst for his future success - and Gwyneth Paltrow's wellness empire?
