Gwyneth Paltrow has turned on former President Bill Clinton and made clear her disgust at his snoring she said punctuated a screening of Emma at the White House.
She made plain her view during appearance on the YouTube interview series Hot Ones (see below) where Paltrow, 51, addressed a series of rumors host Sean Evans dug up after trawling the internet.
One that leapt up for attention was then-President Bill Clinton who “passed out asleep” during a White House screening of her 1996 movie, Emma.
“True,” Paltrow answered with a laugh. “He was snoring right in front of me. I was like, ‘Wow, I guess this is going to be a real hit movie,’” the Goop CEO said sarcastically. “But it was! So f— you, Bill Clinton!”
WATCH as Gwyneth Paltrow appears on Hot Ones:
As Entertainment points out, director Douglas McGrath’s Jane Austen adaptation was well-received by critics and hardly qualified as a box office snooze.
Emma took in upwards of $22 million in theaters.
The film also marked a key moment in Paltrow’s career — just three years later, she would win an Oscar for her performance in Shakespeare in Love.
