According to overseas media including the British Daily Mail on the 29th (local time), Amy Odell reported in Paltrow's new biography 'Gwyneth' that Paltrow referred to Winona Ryder in the 1990s as 'Vagina Ryder.'

The author noted that the relationship between the two began to deteriorate from the time Paltrow was living in Ryder's APT. in New York after breaking up with actor Brad Pitt in 1997.
At that time, Ryder was dating actor Matt Damon, while Paltrow started a relationship with Damon's close friend Ben Affleck. According to Odell, there were two incidents where Ryder claimed to have been a victim of robbery, but Paltrow and Affleck suspected that Ryder had staged the incidents to gain attention.
Additionally, Paltrow was said to be convinced that when rumors circulated in 1998 that she had taken the lead role in the film 'Shakespeare in Love' from Ryder, Ryder was the one spreading those rumors.
Paltrow once revealed on her blog Goop that "there was a frenemy who tried to take me down," but she did not directly name Winona Ryder.
Amy Odell's biography also covers her relationships with other famous stars, such as the rumored fallout between Paltrow and Madonna, drawing the attention of fans.
