Podcasts have revolutionized broadcasting. Without them, there’s a darn good chance we might not know who actress Gwyneth Paltrow rates as a better lover; Brad Pitt or Ben Affleck. But thanks to Alex Cooper, and her “Call Her Daddy” show, we now know. 

“They were both good kissers,” Paltrow admitted. That’s wonderful.  Whatever. How about in bed, Gwyneth? That’s what Cooper wanted to know. It put the former girlfriend of both A-list stars on the spot, but kudos to the Goop founder for stepping up with an answer. 

“That is really hard. Because Brad was, like, the sort of major chemistry, love of your life, kind of, at the time. And then Ben was, like, technically excellent. … I can’t believe my daughter (Apple) is listening to this… Am I blushing?”

Was she keeping detailed notes back in the day? She said Ben made her laugh more, and then Cooper pressed her on who was more high-maintenance. 

“Gosh, that’s a really good question. I’m not sure I would characterize either of them as high maintenance. … I’m not sure [who cared more about their appearance]. I feel like neither of them are very vain like that. I’m not attracted to guys who are, like, looking at the mirror the whole time. Although, Ben did have, like, a mirror face that he would throw at the mirror. He had a funny mirror face.”

She then tried to change the subject and talked about their talents. “I feel like Ben is a great writer and director,” blah, blah, blah. She said they are both great actors. We know that. 

Cooper forced her to play the game, “F—k, Marry, Kill. If she wasn’t blushing yet, she darn sure was now. “Well, obviously, I’d marry Chris Martin because he gave me my two children, who are the loves of my life. So I would do that all again. Then Cooper explained that “kill” was more like putting someone “to the wayside,” Paltrow then confessed she would “f—k” Pitt. Ben, yeah, God bless him.”

So there you have it, although if I were Pitt or Affleck, I’d be a little worried — Paltrow was an Oscar-winning actress, so maybe she was faking it back in the day.
