Gwyneth Paltrow revealed a memorable moment when her late dad gave her some tough love.
In an appearance on "The Graham Norton Show", the 46-year-old actress and lifestyle guru spoke candidly about how fame and success went to her head a bit after she won an Oscar at 26 for her role in "Shakespeare in Love."

"Oh, all my married friends say that the way we live sounds ideal and we shouldn't change a thing," the actress told London's Sunday Times.
