so says gwyneth paltrow:
US actress Gwyneth Paltrow prefers British dinner talk
Oscar-winning US actress Gwyneth Paltrow feels dinner talk is far more interesting in her adopted homeland Britain than back in her native country.
"I love the English lifestyle, it's not as capitalistic as America. People don't talk about work and money, they talk about interesting things at dinner," she told "NS," the weekend magazine supplement of daily Portuguese newspaper Diario de Noticias on Saturday.
"I like living here because I don't fit into the bad side of American psychology. The British are much more intelligent and civilized than the Americans," the 34-year-old added.
Paltrow, who won a best actress Oscar for 1998's "Shakespeare in Love," lives in London with British band Coldplay's frontman Chris Martin whom she wed in 2003.
She said having US pop star Madonna, 48, who married British film director Guy Ritchie six years ago, nearby was another advantage to living in London.
"She's like an older sister. Everything I have gone through, she went through ten times worse and ten times longer. She gives me good advice about how to say no and take care of myself," said Paltrow.

From the country that brought us extreme druggies (any uk punk band) and major drunks (any british rock band), the country that invented happy-slapping and dogging, the country that gave us George "I suck cock in public places" Michaels and Boy "I sniff coke like it was still 1985" George...
Stereotyping is bullshit. I've seen the bad side of the english and it would strongly equate to the redneck culture of the southern united states.
the british women are just as dumb as american women and don't give a shit about things in the same way...clubbing and drinking and whoring it up.
we are much more the same than we are different, yet idiot actresses apparently know better than the rest of us. we all suck.
as an american, i'd question going to another one of her shitty movies. who am i sayin'? I never went to those shitty movies in the first place.
keep your snobbery in the UK, paltrow.

Woo Racism +2
Positive racism in my favour Woo Hoo +10!
The British rule (well at least we used to till we gave the world back!) I don't agree with everything on this post but the fact that we Brits are better than you yanks is obvious. The worst thing about us Brits is that we've absorbed a lot of your Yanky, capitalist ways and that the Brits with lower IQ / intelligence / without own personalities almost worship your bourguois capitalist lifestyle which is where the problems are caused.
I think Paltrow is starting the begining of the end of the UK's Americanisation, if all celebrities took a stand and showed us all that the UK is a higher class, and a more civilased nation than the US our sociological dregs would stop worshiping your US ways and start striving to be what we want our Brits to be....
Communists!
WOO GO STALIN GO!

Exactly, the British are better than Americans.
