On extra quote from Sanderson’s media scrum exterior of court docket: a query of credibility! The now-infamous man contemplated if Gwyneth’s star energy may have given her an edge through the authorized battle:
“You get some assumed credibility from being a famous person. Who wants to take on a celebrity? No wonder I hesitated. It’s difficult. Who wants to do that someone who learns lines, learns how to play someone else’s part and be believable, be credible, wins awards? Who wants to go on that path. I believe she thinks she has the truth … but I absolutely know I said I would not bring any falsehoods.”
Hmmm. Tough to say. After all, it’s not like Paltrow’s public notion is 100% good. She’s made loads of bizarre and unpopular feedback simply in latest weeks alone! Ya know??
