Gwyneth Paltrow Attends The Oscars In A White Gown

The Goop founder has been known for a long time now as a lifestyle guru, but she reignited her impressive acting career with her appearance in Marty Supreme, one of the big-nominated films at this year's Academy Awards.

 

Given it was a Best Picture nominee, Gwyneth attended the Oscars for the first time since 2015, and she wore a formal yet head-turning outfit that was perfect for the occasion. She had on a strapless white gown made from a silky material. The gown had a sultry, long slit on one side to show off her legs and rear, adding a whole other dramatic element to it.

 

On the red carpet, she paired the gown with some diamond jewelry, including a diamond necklace and some oversized stud earrings.

Fans React To Gwyneth's Oscars Appearance & Accuse Her Of Having Work Done

The Marty Supreme star made some headlines following her Oscars red carpet walk and presentation. There were lots of people who wanted to talk about the slit in her dress, but others couldn't get over her face.

 

Over the last few years, the lifestyle brand icon has been opening up about all the unconventional beauty treatments she loves to try, but there are numerous internet users who feel like she's done a lot more to make herself look "unrecognizable."

 

One X user wrote that it looked like "she cannot move her face."

 

"Does she have a new style face?" asked another, as one wrote she "never ages a day."

 

"Is it surgery, adrenochrome, or a mix of both?" asked a user.

 

Though the mom-of-two hasn't owned up to any recent surgeries, it looks like fans aren't convinced something is going on behind the scenes.
