      Paltrow has no credibility. Look up “goop”. She is a shill for snake oil crap.

        I’m aware, but it doesn’t change the parallel of them bringing in a celebrity to massage their image to their target demo.

          Ah, glad you are aware. Others should be too. Her particular version of snake oil is not only predatory, but also dangerous to women and their health.

            They also likely chose her because she’s the Coldplay vocalist’s ex.

    Wasn’t she in a series of super popular Marvel movies where she had a relationship with her boss?

      Neither was married.

      Bigger issue is that they hired a person known for promoting scam products as a spokesperson for their brand.

        By the end of it they’d married each other and had a kid, but yeah, not cheating.

    So they brought in someone who was married to a member of coldplay… While they sold scam products to the foolish… To improve their image?

    This didn’t make sense to me until I read the article and found out ‘Astronomer’ was the name of the company where the CEO and HR lady worked.

    It still doesn’t make much sense agree learning that, but it killed the ‘garden path sentence’-feel

    My brain saying a few things I can’t quite string up all together, let’s see:

    • coldplay music
    • paltrow for damage control, question mark
    • being tone deaf
