格溫妮絲·帕特洛曾被《人物》雜志評選為“世界上最美女人”,她身兼奧斯卡影后、美食教主和跨界歌手等多重身份。舉止優(yōu)雅、充滿自信、氣質出眾、富有修養(yǎng)，這些詞通通用來形容她都不為過。她出生在美國的一個藝人家庭，繼承了父母的好基因。盡管父母并不希望她成為一名演員，但由于小時候的耳濡目染，她在很小的時候就表現(xiàn)出過人的演藝才華，成為了一名演員。她在電影《鋼鐵俠》里的演出，讓小編不禁感嘆，這世上怎會有如此有氣質的女人？

The last time I met her was at the end of 2011, when she was still living with Chris Martin注1and their two children in north London. The impression I had was that they were at ease with each other. Today, she seems somehow more at home than before, and very relaxed. She is wearing soft,1)faded jeans and a white T-shirt; her feet are2)bare, and she looks like the most natural3)version of herself.

So how does it feel, being back in the city where she spent the first 11 years of her life? “There’s a deep comfort about it because it’s so familiar,” she says.“The other day I was lying on the grass and the kids were playing, and I was looking at the blue sky and the

4)palm trees—and there was something about the weather and the smell and I was, like, eight years old again. I had such a strong memory of being a kid here—it’s a really nice place to be a little kid, and it’s great to watch my children have that experience.”

She clearly has a feel for the different ways that men and women are responding to the11)digital world. “Men want to look, but women want to12)engage,” she says. “They want a13)tactile, emotional experience.”

Now she makes only one film a year, in order to give time to her children. “I’m an actor, and it’s in my DNA, it’s in my bones,” she says, “and I think I’ll always do it.” As she remarks, with14)characteristic15)self-deprecation: “A lot of good luck and a lot of hard work and a lot of being in the right place at the right time. But I16)burned myself out,”she says now. “I was doing three films a year, sometimes appearing in every single scene.”

Part of her17)motivation, she continues, was to make her parents “proud. ” And although she had been raised in comfortable18)circumstances, she says: “My father was totally19)self-made. I grew up with the benefit of a great education and a beautiful house, but my father always said,‘one day you leave, that’s it. You’re not getting anything,’and he stuck to it. He was so20)hardcore about me making my own way.”

And, what about her aim in her life? “I just wanted to do what my mother did. I grew up watching her in rehearsals and21)struggling with22)lines and23)weeping with joy receiving a24)standing ovation from the audience. The friendship of the25)cast appealed to me so much—and it didn’t have to be on an Oscar-winning movie.”

She has found a friendship with her26)colleagues at Goop—“I like the27)companionship of working in a team; we’ve become a28)collective of women, which I love.”

Above all, Paltrow believes in a woman’s right to define herself as she chooses. “I think we are a29)generation of women who are different in a lot of respects, and some of us want to be30)ambitious, and for it not to be a dirty word. We want to be31)feminine and soft, we want to be32)maternal, we want to be explorers—and we can be a combination of all of these33)archetypes. You can be powerful, but you can also be34)vulnerable.” Finally, she says, she has learnt the power of kindness and the importance of35)non-judgemental ways of looking at others. She’s not a superwoman, and nor has she ever claimed to be; instead, she’s trying to36)navigate her way through the emotional37)minefields of marriage, motherhood and maintaining a career, just like the rest of us. Because in the end, even golden girls have to grow up.

參考譯文

我上一次見她是在2011年年底，那時她還和克里斯·馬汀及他們的兩個孩子住在倫敦北部。印象中，他們在一起時彼此間的感覺很自在。今天，不知道為什么，我感覺她看上去比從前更自在、更放松了。她穿著一條柔軟的褪色牛仔褲和一件白T恤，光著腳，展現(xiàn)了她最自然的一面。

重新搬回她11歲以前所居住的城市，感覺怎么樣呢？“我深感安慰，因為這里是如此熟悉?！彼f?！坝幸惶?，我躺在草地上，孩子們正在玩耍，而我看著蔚藍的天空和棕櫚樹—那天氣，那氣味，就好像，我又回到了八歲那時候。我在這里成長的記憶還很深刻—對小孩來說，這真是一個好地方，我很開心我的孩子們也能有這樣的經歷。”

除了以家庭為重外，帕洛特也把一部分重心放在了顧普網站上。她和新任首席執(zhí)行官（麗莎·格什，前瑪莎·斯圖沃特生活方式品牌的首席執(zhí)行官）攜手穩(wěn)步地進行擴展，從網站發(fā)展到了在現(xiàn)實生活中辦活動和實體零售店。她清醒地認識到男人和女人對數(shù)字時代的反應是不同的?！澳腥酥辉谝慌钥?，而女人是想要參與進來的，”她說?！八齻兿胍环N觸摸得到的情感體驗?！?/p>

現(xiàn)在她每年只拍一部電影，為的是留出時間陪孩子?！拔沂且幻輪T，在我的基因里，在我的骨子里都是。”她說，“而且我覺得我會一直演下去?！闭缢砸回灥淖灾t說道：“我運氣很好，工作也很努力，還有許多的天時地利。但我也令自己筋疲力盡了，”她現(xiàn)在這樣說，“我曾經一年接拍三部電影，有時每一場戲都有我的戲份?！?/p>

而其他的人生動力，她繼續(xù)說道，是為了能讓她的父母感到“驕傲”。雖然她在很舒適的環(huán)境下成長，但她說：“我父親是一個白手起家的人。在我的成長過程中，我接受了良好的教育，也住上了漂亮的房子，但我父親常說：‘到你搬出去的那一天，你就要靠自己了，你不會從家里得到任何東西?！宜恢眻猿种@一點。他一直堅持要我靠自己的努力獲得成就?！?/p>

那么，她人生道路的目標是什么呢？“我就想和我母親做同樣的事。我是看著她的排演長大的，我看過她努力地記著臺詞，看過她在贏得觀眾起立鼓掌時，喜極而泣。演員們間的友誼很吸引我—它不一定要在一個奧斯卡獲獎電影里才能得到?！?/p>

她與顧普網站的同事們建立起了友誼—我喜歡團隊合作；我們已經是一個女性集體了，這是我喜愛的部分。”

最重要的是，帕洛特認為女人有權利為自己的選擇定位?！拔矣X得我們這一代的女性在很多方面都不一樣了，其中一部分女性是有野心的，但野心并不是個令人討厭的詞語。我們可以是嬌柔的女性，有著母性光輝的女性，愛探險的女性—我們也可以是擁有著所有這些特征的綜合體。你可以是強大的，你也可以是脆弱的?！弊詈?，她說，她已經了解到善良的力量了，知道了不以批判性目光看待別人的重要性。她不是女強人，也不曾說自己是女強人；相反地，她與我們一樣，經歷了婚姻、當母親、打拼事業(yè)等種種情感雷區(qū)。因為說到底，即便是成功的女孩也是要長大的。
