Gwyneth Paltrow has reminisced about her blazing 90s, admitting that it was much easier to indulge in hedonistic escapades back then.
The Goop creator, 50, rose to popularity in the era by playing in great films such as thriller Seven and drama Sliding Doors before winning the Oscar for Best Actress in Shakespeare in Love in 1998.
Throughout the 1990s, The Royal Tenenbaums heroine had high-profile relationships with Brad Pitt, 59, with whom she was engaged, and Ben Affleck, 50.
And, according to the Shallow Hal star, the 1990s were a fantastic time to be in the spotlight since there was less interference and, most importantly, no social media or camera phones.
Appearing on Monday’s The Late Late Show with James Corden, along with Hilary Swank, 48, the Mammals actor, 44, remarked: ‘You both came up in the 90s and it’s having quite the Renaissance at the moment: the fashion, the music.
‘What was it like for both of you being so famous at a time when there was no social media? No nothing? What do you remember about that time?’
Laughing Gwyneth joked: ‘I mean, talk about doing cocaine and not getting caught.
‘You could just be in a bar and be like having fun, dance on a table. No camera phones.
‘Especially in New York, interestingly enough, there were no paparazzi – like you could stumble out of a bar and go home with some rando and no one would know.’
Gwyneth is now famed for her healthy living and wellness brand Goop, and she recently admitted that she had no New Year’s resolutions since she has ‘nothing left to quit.’
‘I’m not a huge resolutions person because I think it sets us up to fail,’ she wrote in her company’s newsletter. I attempt to set larger goals and work toward them throughout the year.
‘I think about the little incremental changes I can make as opposed to some big sweeping thing. Also, I’m so old now and have been doing this for so long that I kind of have nothing left to quit. It becomes about less-tangible things.’
The Late Late Show with James Corden airs on CBS in the US.
