GOOP FOUNDER GWYNETH PALTROW IS THINKING ABOUT RUNNING FOR OFFICE

During a talk at The Maker’s Conference in Beverly Hills on February 29, Gwyneth Paltrow said (and we agree) that “women should rule the world,” and that’s EXACTLY what the actress and Goop founder plans to do. While Gwyneth didn’t reveal her plan during her appearance, a friend explained that Gwyneth intends to throw her hat into the political arena and run for office. She’s not quite sure what office, but more than likely she’s thinking Senator. Keep an eye out as Gwyneth plans to continue dropping subtle hints about her plan until she’s ready to make the big announcement…

POLITICS DIDN’T AGREE WITH DR OZ

Dr. Oz wants his old life back! The TV doc gave up his lucrative career to run for the US Senate from Pennsylvania, but his fame didn’t draw voters and and he suffered a humiliating and expensive defeat. He’s now trying to pick up the pieces and return to the greener pastures of television. His conservative right-wing campaign turned off most of Hollywood, including the person responsible for his success, Oprah Winfrey, so now the defeated doc is negotiating with FOX News for a show. Our source says that Oz’s political beliefs and nasty campaign all but destroyed his chances of returning to his former TV glory, and that’s why he’s turned to the conservative network in hopes of landing a show. Nothing has been green-lit YET, but there have been some significant meetings.

OPRAH’S BUDDIES HAVE ASPIRATIONS

WHAT has Oprah unleashed upon us! First, Dr Oz ran for the U.S. Senate and we were afraid he might get elected simply because Oprah made him such a well-known celebrity. Turns out, she didn’t agree with him politically, and he was not elected. Now Oprah’s OTHER protege, Dr Phil, is secretly gearing up to run for the Senate also! But not in his home state Texas, where Ted Cruz will run for re-election. Dr Phil’s plan is to buy a home in the state where he feels he has the best chance of winning, and become a candidate there. Oprah doesn’t see eye to eye with Dr Phil politically either, so don’t expect to see her on the campaign trail. Can he get elected without her?

ASHLEY JUDD: DON’T HESITATE, RUN FOR SENATOR!

Kentucky Democrats are so enamored with actress Ashley Judd that they are pushing her to run for the Senate in 2014 or 2016. She’s been very active with the party at the county and local level and people were impressed with her speech at the Democratic national convention in September. Ashley admits she’s flattered and hasn’t rejected the idea. But, of course, a run would mean her opponent would dig up every piece of Hollywood dirt involving her and that might be daunting, but she’s not the scandalous type – and she IS a feminist! We hope she DOES choose to run – the senate needs some fresh new ideas and best of all, WOMEN! Ashley would have our vote…
