Gwyneth Paltrow has come under fire for many reasons over the past few weeks – largely due to the backlash over the new Gwyneth biography that has dropped many bombshells about her.

And the 52-year-old Oscar-winning actress has just faced backlash again, due to a video she shared of herself preparing a salad for husband Brad Falchuk and displaying poor hygiene, shall we say, while doing so. Keep reading for more info…

Gwyneth Paltrow Shares A Video Of Herself Making A Salad For Husband Brad Falchuk

The Goop founder is dressed in a bold red cardigan tucked inside some dark blue shorts in the video, which she shared with her 9.1M followers on July 18th. And most significantly of all, her hair is worn in a long, center-parted down do. Emphasis on the ‘long’ and ‘down.’

“I’ve been making a version of Brad’s favorite summer tuna salad for years,” the Sliding Doors actress captioned the video, adding: “It’s fresh, simple, and now you can get it at Goop Kitchen.”

The mom-of-two can be seen lovingly preparing the colorful salad for her husband, but many people in the comments couldn’t help but remark on how unhygienic it was that she hadn’t tied her hair up.

Internet Reactions

"Cool, but how painful to see someone cooking with long, loose hair! Help!" exclaimed one disapproving fan. "Why can't you put your hair up when you cook?" asked a second, adding: "Your long tresses hanging over the finished salad is so unappealing."

"I have long hair too. If I don't tie it up or wear a scarf, a hair will definitely fall into the salad. It's really disgusting to find hair in food," noted a third, as a fourth demanded: "Put your hair back when you cook."

"Looks delicious Gwyneth but I would put my hair in a ponytail! So no hair drops in the food!" advised a fifth, as a sixth echoed: "Finding a hair in your food is not pleasant. Always pull your hair back when cooking!" "There will be hair in food if you don't pull it back in a pony. Yuk!" wrote a seventh fan.

However, many fans did come to her defense, with one person saying: "She's not cooking for you." "She's preparing food in her own house for her and her husband. Not in a restaurant. Good grief! If her husband finds a hair in his food, let him chastise her for it," concurred a second.

"Love this new era for you," gushed a third fan, as a fourth thought the salad looked "amazing." "Seriously we need a tv show of these moments," commented a fifth fan, followed by the heart eyes, red heart, and hand praising emojis.
