Gwyneth Paltrow defended her lifestyle brand Goop against its detractors in a new magazine interview published Wednesday.
The 44-year-old actress told The Hollywood Reporter that she's become the target for her lifestyle brand that recently expanded with a quarterly magazine.
Paltrow noted that her 'dear friend' Reese Witherspoon has managed to leverage her stardom to help promote her clothing brand Draper James, but the opposite was the case for Goop.
'You become inextricably linked. I'm a target in a way most entrepreneurs are not,' said Paltrow who said she's putting acting on the back burner to focus on Goop.
Paltrow then challenged her brand's critics: 'I'm interested in criticism based on fact, not on projections. If you want to f*** with me, bring your A game.'
The Oscar-winning actress, however, did admit to THR that being famous does have its advantages.
'It's also a blessing when we need to leverage my celebrity — it opens doors,' she conceded.
