Gwyneth Paltrow has ruled out ever having a music career. The 'Iron Man' actress - who showed off her vocal talents in movie 'Duets' - says despite being married to Coldplay frontman Chris Martin, she will never try her luck as a singer.
She said: "I have been approached to do records and stuff like that, which is very flattering. But I don't really see myself as the type of person who could be put in a studio and be given a song that someone else wrote - with lyrics that someone else wrote - and then get all made up and have my hair blowing with a fan for a music video. "That's just not my style - I'm not into the packaged prefab music thing. I don't really like Top 40 music - I don't listen to it.
First of all, I would only do it if I was going to be writing my own songs and I don't even know if I could write a song because I had never tried." Gwyneth also revealed her outlook on life has changed since having her two children -Apple, four, and two-year-old Moses. She added to Now magazine: "Nothing is as good as hanging out with the children. But the actor in me is always looking for something to do. I just have to make sure that it all works with the family and everyone's schedules."
