Gwyneth Paltrow snubs guests at equine rescue benefit
Gwyneth Paltrow is constantly trying to make sure she retains the rights to her “fish sticks” nickname. The woman really is getting even colder and more aloof, at least if you believe anything the Daily News had to say about her.
Gwyneth attended photographer Steven Klein’s benefit party for the Amaryllis Farm Equine Rescue Organization on Saturday night, where they paid $2,500 to mingle with Gwyneth and a few lesser celebs. However Ms. Paltrow stayed in an off-limits area of the party all night, which was then blocked off by security. She didn’t mingle or speak with any of the Hamptons partygoers, and emerged for only five minutes to give a brief speech.
Already disappointed that honorary chair Madonna didn’t show … guests became even more crestfallen when Paltrow spent most of the time off-limits in Klein’s house. “Gwyneth stayed in the house from the beginning,” sniffed one guest. “She was hanging inside the house with Steven and with Kelly Klein nearly the entire time. Nobody could go inside the house — they had security blocking the way. It was so rude.”Even Billy Joel’s wife, Katie, was turned back, says a source.
Paltrow did emerge for about five minutes to address the group, which included Calvin Klein, Donna Karan, Andrew Saffir, Nicole Miller, Sale Johnson, Russell Simmons, Rosanna Scotto, Rocco DiSpirito and Marcy Warren.
After crying, “I can’t see! I can’t see!” as she teetered to the field, the “Iron Man” star talked about Amaryllis, which helps stop the slaughter of horses, donkeys and mules for dog meat in Mexico.
If only Paltrow would use her power, some thought, to let everybody into the house, which is where she quickly sequestered herself the rest of the evening. But all’s well that ends well: After an auction of Klein’s photographs, the evening raised $200,000 for the charity.

Heaven forbid Gwyneth Paltrow lower herself to speaking with the common folk. And let’s remember, these aren’t crazed screaming fans on the side of the red carpet. But “common folk,” we’re still talking about the Hamptons elite. You’d think even Gwyneth Paltrow would want to make a good impression. But apparently not.
