Oscar-winning actress Gwyneth Paltrow can't get enough of her commander-in-chief.
Hosting a fundraiser for
President Barack Obama at her Los Angeles home on Thursday, Paltrow
revealed that she is in fact the President's "biggest" fan -- and it's
not just because of his policies.
"You're so handsome that I
can't speak properly," Paltrow said before turning the mic over to
Obama, according to a White House pool report.
Before that
speechlessness overtook her, Paltrow managed to praise the President's
efforts to combat climate change and his push for equal pay, which the
Oscar-winner called "very important to me as a working mother."
"I am one of your biggest fans, if not the biggest," Paltrow said.
When Obama spoke, he joked about the handsome remark: "I'm taking her to the next event."
About 200 supporters
spent at least $1,000 each to attend the Democratic fundraiser, with 50
dropping at least $15,000 to attend a dinner with the President.
Paltrow wasn't the only
Oscar-winner in the crowd, with Julia Roberts also spotted at the
fundraiser, though there's no word yet on whether she was as equally
dazzled by the President.
