Paltrow and Mahdara launched Kinship Ventures, a venture capital firm, together.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>This isn&#8217;t the first time Goop has laid off its staff. In late 2024, the wellness company had two waves of massive layoffs in two months, slashing around 50 employees.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>The Oscar-winning actress is the CEO of Goop, and started the company as a weekly email newsletter in September 2008. She later expanded it into an e-commerce business that collaborates with fashion brands and hosts pop-ups and wellness summits.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>Goop later launched a print magazine, podcast, and even a docuseries on Netflix. Paltrow stated that the 2024 layoffs put the company &#8220;back in growth mode,&#8221; but it&#8217;s unclear exactly how solvent the company is now.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<h3>Gwyneth Paltrow brutally trolled for Goop&#8217;s layoffs<\/h3>\n<p>The news of Goop&#8217;s layoffs did not go down well on the internet, as fans accused the actress of being &#8220;greedy.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>A user commented on TMZ&#8217;s story of the news, &#8220;She means, why pay real people to work when AI can do it for free while I reap the profits. Greedy.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>Another added, &#8220;AI is the answer to lay off worthless actors like her.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>A third person commented: &#8220;Who buy her s&#8212; anyway??&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>In a <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.the-express.com\/latest\/reddit\" data-link-tracking=\"InArticle|AutoLink\">Reddit<\/a> thread about &#8220;Goop&#8217;s empire crumbling&#8221; posted a year ago, fans echoed similar concerns, complaining that Goop&#8217;s products are &#8220;overpriced.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>A Redditor wrote, &#8220;Surprised it lasted that long honestly. Overpriced products for boring, beige soccer moms. Has she tried to come up with her own overpriced and oversized goop tumbler?&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>Another chimed in: &#8220;I don\u2019t feel bad for her at all tbh, I don\u2019t hate her either though.
