Geez, who would have thunk that Gwyneth Paltrow stunk? This is a woman who steams her nether region.
A site called NickiSwift reports that Gwyneth is a afraid of aluminum in her deodorant, believing it causes breast cancer, so she’d “rather be smelly than dead.”
Others who purportedly smell bad-
Russell Crowe –
Actor Russell Crowe’s body odor is reportedly as foul as his temper. Joan Rivers once said, “He has a body odor problem. I prefer to sit downwind of him at awards shows.”
Matthew McConaughey-
Actor Matthew McConaughey told People (via the New York Daily News) that he hasn’t worn deodorant in 20 years. “I don’t like to smell like someone or something else,” he explained,\.
Julia Roberts-
A former security guard for the pretty lady told Star (via PopCrunch), “Julia is a total hippie. She’ll go days without showering. She likes to save water—she’s really green. And she likes the smell of her natural oils.”
Cameron Diaz-
I don’t believe in antiperspirant. It’s really bad for you. I haven’t used it for almost 20 years. You’re stinky, because you use antiperspirant. It keeps all the stink in.” She advised, “Let it go and just trim your armpit hair so it doesn’t hold onto the scent.”
Bradley Cooper-
Bradley Cooper confessed that he might stink, but he’s taking steps to compensate for it…just not the most obvious step to fix the problem. “I don’t use deodorant really anymore.”

There is an extreme narcissism aspect of foisting your stench onto others. It’s also a form of asserting your power, gleefully oppressing others. It does not puzzle me at all that so many “celebrities” stink. It’s why the left stinks, as well.
Semenal blasts seem to have a way of neutralizing olfactory senses. No wonder most of Hollywood cannot detect body odor. Explains why most Hollywood types are not repulsed by the smell and taste of fecal matter.
I can understand resisting anti-perspirant, but deodorant seems mostly harmless.
They should look into using Tom’s of Maine Natural Deodorant

or
Crystal Natural Salt Deodorant

DH uses the salt and has been for over 30 years. The “celebrities” mentioned are just too lazy to take care of their personal hygiene. There’s no excuse.

frankly, since the ’90’s, practically all of them stink
DOWNWIND?? DONT YOU WANT TO SIT UPWIND??
we all know there are feminine anti-deodorants, but most aren’t aware that the same products are available for men. Newest on the market is “Umpire’ male deodorant. It is for foul balls.
And Katie Winters died of frozen armpits.

Mom, Blythe Danner, must either be proud of daughter Gwyneth. Or wondering if she somehow did something that caused her daughter become a nutjob.
Full disclosure I also avoid anti-antiperspirant, it makes my armpits itch. I stick with deodorant, usually some flavor of Old Spice stick.
Some people do have a weird body chemistry and just naturally stink no matter what they do.
There was a guy on my submarine crew you always wanted downwind from you. Find an a/c vent and make sure it was behind ya when talking to him up close. He reeked so bad finally one day four of us engaged him in casual conversation and then tactfully suggested he ought to shower, and wash his cloths more often. He got pretty PO’d, claiming proper adequate hygiene.
We set up a watch on him for a couple of weeks. Monitoring his routine. Indeed he showered, washed his clothes, and used deodorant as frequently as everyone else. We thought maybe he had just stepped it up after being called out. But – He still reeked an hour or two after his last shower and when possible was always maneuvered to be downwind when standing close, which is frequent on a sub, or talked to him from a distance if possible. Beyond that, he was a nice guy. As most of the boat’s crew were too.
paltrow needn’t worry about boob cancer…..she doesn’t have any.
Possibly TMI, but I don’t use antiperspirants either. They make me sweat like a pig.
However, there are plenty of deodorants that are not antiperspirants and do not have aluminum.
plenty of ‘green’ stuff they can use to keep the stink off.
charcoal products, for one.
BTW, what about all that makeup, perfume, plastic surgeries and hair dyes they use? None of those are bad?
Blink- a friend of a friend was like that back when we were in Jr. High. My friend finally told her she should take a tomato bath. Like when you get sprayed by a skunk. Didn’t work. lol. Finally, her parents took her to a dermatologist or whatever. Some sort of prescription soap and a diet change and she was okay after that.
Only antiperspirants have aluminum chlorohydrate, aluminum chloride or aluminum zirconium in them, which reduce perspiration by forming plugs in the sweat glands. I never use them, as they make my skin itch something terrible. I doubt that it’s a significant factor in cancer, though.
I’m with MJA, I think they put far worse things on their body than deodorant.
That crap of not showering to save water is just gross.
They can’t hold a candle to an Infantryman who’s been out on mission – or even out training – for a week or two. My record was 13 days without a shower. Everyone ran out of baby wipes after a few days.
@ Toby Miles…That girl was Earnest T. Bass’s girlfriend….no wonder she stunk…She was a darlin’ anyways…
DITTO BENITO BEANER.
The Pew Research Organization should do an in-depth study of Hollywood’s bad odors, both the literal and figurative ones.
Wonder how many of them have tattoos. Yes, there is often a correlation.
@ willy,

and i thought it was the worn out ideas, bad writing and bad acting that made all their movies stink.
who knew it was their poor hygiene ?
Well, that explains the Stinker Movies Hollyweird has been crankin out for years now.
Personally, I like to fling my poop.
Bukto, “Pew research” dat funny

I am in the same situation. I lived in Rio de Janeiro for a few years, and became allergic to even simple deodorant without antiperspirant. I did a little research, and found the salt sticks. They work great. My wife has s great sense of smell, and has no complaints. You have to do a bit of a detox in your pots first though. Just bentonite clay and apple cider vinegar applied directly to them a couple of times to draw the chemicals out of your pores and sweat glands.
Also, in a pinch, ethyl alcohol works too. You just need to kill the bacteria after a shower.
And here I thought it was the guy next to me at the theater….
Yet no Brad Pitt or Shia Labeouf mentions? Pitt was early boning Paltrow, than on the set he tells Labeouf “method acting of stink” needs a fire hose?
So conflicted someone promoting themselves as “Brad Pitt”. Paltrow is not a legend and sunk Iron Man all. Guess it was her “stank” was saving on all those flying FX. Because she could “waft” saved millions. I once did not listen to my father, if it smells bad, don’t eat it. I had the worse case of “Funk Muffin” breath for 3 days,,
I use baking soda based deodorant from the health food store because I also believe that most deodorants can cause serious illnesses (in my own case my lymph nodes were always swollen before I switched), but uh, I don’t stink. I make sure to buy essential oil scented ones. Violet or baby’s breath. It works.
(Should I call Gwen and let her know that there are safe options or is the real reason she doesn’t use deodorant is that she doesn’t want a five a clock shadow look on her pits that deodorant naturally gives you?)
