During an interview on CBS about getting the award, Gwyneth Paltrow said: “It’s crazy when I think about that now. At the time I thought I was, like, a full adult, you know?” When correspondent Tracy Smith asked, “what do you think that did to your mind?” the actress laughed, “f**king it up!”

The actress went on to say: “You know, to reach that kind of, like, the pinnacle at that age and have that much scrutiny and attention, and then it’s like, no matter what you do after that, you can’t really win, right? It’s like you have a few years of it’s, like, nothing’s gonna live up to that. It’s just a lot to hold.”

When asked when she decided to focus on wellness, which led to Gwyneth Paltrow setting up her Goop firm, she said: “I’ll tell you exactly, when my father got cancer.
