The Oscar winner confirmed on 'Hot Ones' that the former President did indeed fall asleep during a screening at the White House of her 1996 movie 'Emma.'

There's something about a heat hallucination that brings out the honesty in people, and we have Sean Evans of Hot Ones to thank for soliciting the greatest and most raw responses from some of our favorite celebrities.

The latest to fall victim to the Scoville effect was Gwyneth Paltrow, who appeared on the YouTube talk show last week.


After indulging in a hot wing topped with Queso sin Queso (Scoville level 52,000), Evans asked the Oscar winner if the rumor that former President Bill Clinton fell asleep during one of her movies was true.

As it turns out, it was.

Paltrow responded:

“He was snoring right in front of me."

Laughing, she continued:

“I was like, wow, I guess this is going to be a real hit movie. "
"But it was, so f**k you, Bill Clinton!”

People on social media were quite entertained by this new nugget of information.












Elsewhere in the episode, Paltrow addressed other hearsay, as well.

When Evans asked if there was any truth to the rumor that Kiefer Sutherland babysat her when she was a child, Paltrow confirmed that he did.

According to the actor, her mother was doing plays at the Williamstown Theatre Festival, and Sutherland was an apprentice. Paltrow added that he was "awesome" at the job.

Evans also asked about a "prop head" bearing the likeness of the star that was used in the 1995 film Seven. It was said to have been preserved for 16 years and reused in the 2011 thriller Contagion.

This was neither confirmed nor denied.

Folks, once again, continuity is more of a suggestion than a rule in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Marvel has officially confirmed that Chris Evans is returning as Steve Rogers in Avengers: Doomsday, and the internet has responded exactly how you’d expect: screaming, celebrating, arguing, and a very justified side-eye toward how Sam Wilson keeps getting treated.
