Actress and self-styled health guru Gwyneth Paltrow is known for her unusual and sometimes extreme beauty regimes, but this may be the oddest yet, as she has revealed that she's been stung by bees as part of an alternative treatment.
“I’m open to anything. I’ve been stung by bees. It’s a thousands of years old treatment called apitherapy. People use it to get rid of inflammation and scarring. It’s actually pretty incredible if you research it. But, man, it’s painful. I haven’t done cryotherapy yet, but I do want to try that,” Paltrow told The New York Times as part of her promotion for her new Goop skincare range which will be available on her wellness website Goop.com.
In the past Gwyneth has extolled the virtues of vaginal steaming and once admitted that she would "rather smoke crack than eat cheese out of a tin", but getting stung by bees seems a little out-there - even by her standards. One thing that can’t be denied is that the 43 year-old looks fantastic and even if apitherapy doesn’t become hip, her new skincare range will no doubt fly off the shelves.
