Gwyneth Paltrow

After an accident on set of her new film, Iron Man, Gwyneth Paltrow has been left with a perminantly numb leg. Gywneth broke her knee and tried to act through her pain, untill she was told by a doctor the injury needed surgery.

She said, “I broke my knee - because I’m a moron and I’m always bashing into things by accident. I’ve broken my toes 30 times.

Gwyneth continued, “I don’t know what’s wrong with me. I bashed my knee, it really hurt”.

The accident also caused a bust-up with director John Favreau, who was sure she was exaggerating her pain: “I kept exercising and running around in the movie. Then it really started to expand. In one scene I’m running away from Ironmonger - the bad Iron Man - and I said to John, ‘My knee is really hurting, I don’t know how many times I can do this.’ He was rolling his eyes, saying ‘you’re fine’.

“But I went to the doctor and I had a fracture so bad they had to do surgery the next day. They put cement in there! So I felt very smug and he apologised.”

“It still doesn’t feel right. I had a nerve problem. My legs don’t feel the same. Sometimes it happens with surgery. If I get a wax, one leg hurts more than the other”.

Aah! it must be so hard being a Hollywood actress, having to run around all day for millions of dollars, poor thing.
