Gwyneth Paltrow admits smoking one cigarette per week

Gwyneth Paltrow promotes a healthy lifestyle but she admits having her vices, like smoking one cigarette per week.

Gwyneth Paltrow, 40, also admitted she has tried Botox injections in the May issue of Harper’s Bazaar.

When asked about her guilty pleasures, Gwyneth Paltrow, who recently penned healthy eating cookbook It’s All Good, said: “My one light American Spirit that I smoke once a week, on Saturday night.”

As for surgery, the star said she would be “scared to go under the knife”, although she admitted that may change as she gets older.

“I’ll try anything. Except I won’t do Botox again, because I looked crazy,” Gwyneth Paltrow said.

“I looked like Joan Rivers!”

The actress also admitted to stepping up her beauty routine in recent years.

“I really used to be bad with products, but I exfoliate every night and use a lot of organic oils,” she said, confiding that she is a Sonya Dakar fan.

Gwyneth Paltrow said she recently had the Thermage laser treatment, which she described as “quite painful”.

“It feels like someone’s smacking your face with a rubber band that has an electric shock in it,” she said.

“But I would do it again, because I feel like it took five years off my face.”

Gwyneth Paltrow also spoke about the apparent contradictions in promoting a healthy lifestyle and organic products while at the same time indulging in high-end beauty treatments.

“I think it’s a mix,” she said.

“You know, I use organic products, but I get lasers. It’s what makes life, finding the balance between cigarettes and tofu.”

Gwyneth Paltrow opened about her 10-year marriage to Coldplay frontman Chris Martin, stating that they are “growing into very similar people”.

The star, who is already a mother to Apple, 8, and Moses, 6, said she is considering trying for a third child, despite the big adjustment that would entail.

“But then you see a baby and you smell a baby!” she said.

“And you’re like, <<Yep, I do>>. I don’t know. It’s a very big decision, so we’ll see. Anyway, I’m not doing it this month!”
