Goop 2
or maybe Paltrow is riffing ironically off an old kids’ poem?:
The Goops
by Gillette Burgess
The Goops they lick their fingers
And the Goops they lick their knives
They spill their froth on the tablecloth
Oh, they lead disgusting lives!
The Goops they talk while eating,
And loud and fast they chew;
And that is why I’m glad that I
Am not a Goop, are you?

Goopy
Gwyneth Paltrow is getting some grief for her new website, www.goop.com., including flak for a dumb name. Personally, I like the name. G for Gwyneth, P for Paltrow, a big “oo” to make it sort of googly. (Maybe her middle names are Ophelia and Olive? Or just Olive Oyl? Who cares.) So what if it sounds like sticky hair gel? Maybe the content is goopy if you’re not one of the friends calling her to ask, “Where should I go?”, or “What should I wear?”. Anyway you can’t say it ain’t short and memorable. You’re not gonna goof and misspell it.
