Last month Gwyneth Paltrow sent out an 8-minute video teaching her GOOP fans how to make a roast chicken. In it she extols the virtues of fleur de sel, and talks about her love of cooking. Of course, this laid back lesson was ripe for a parody and Funny or Die took up the cause with the help of SNL's Abby Elliott.

First time I've seen anything from Funny or Die that was funny, and this was very funny.

Paltrow goes on and on and on about being on a macrobiotic diet. Macrobiotics exclude meat.

Beautiful! i'll admit it, I like Gwyneth, she speaks Spanish very well, and is cultured. but i watched the PBS show with her and Mario Batale, and though I'm a huge Spain fan, I found it irritating because it was pretty clear that it was mostly "hey, let's be celebs, have some fun in Spain, not rehearse at all, eat good stuff, and get paid!", and then there's the poor choice for the show's theme song, and the really cheap single latin-rock music loop that they use endlessly throughout the show, total cheepnis.

Maybe when you get into that stratosphere, name-dropping is so normal that people have no idea that it's irritating, it's just normal speech. And yes, G loses no opportunity to let us know how disgusting certain common foods are to her oh, so rarefied palate. ah, to be that loaded and in chill mode right from birth must be awesome!

I'll be looking for more Abby vids, bravo!

Her Angelie JOlie is priceless. I wished I cared more about Gwyneth to underestand the jokes and the references.

On SNL typically on the Weekend Update. It's pretty funny. I hope her and the other new gal that does "BIT** PLEASE" segment on Update, get more time on aire.. they are both pretty da*n funny.

I love GOOP spoofs too! That's why I did one a couple of months ago!

I LOVE IT! Paltrow is the most irritating celeb alive today. She is almost too easy to spoof, but you have done a terrific job.

I think Paltrows 8 min cooking video was great, but this was kinda funny... kinda.
