Gwyneth Stirs It Up for Martini Ads
December 3, 2004

LOS ANGELES (Zap2it.com) - Gwyneth Paltrow, who doesn't imbibe alcohol, will be hawking the evil fire water in Europe and Australia.

The 32-year-old actress has agreed to star in ads for Martini, but only after she was reassured that they wouldn't be seen in Britain and America, where her anti-alcohol stance is well known, report news sources.

Of course, a $7 million payoff was pretty persuasive too. The advertisements will be seen Down Under and in Italy.

In one commercial, Paltrow, dressed only in a man's shirt, jumps over a bar and pours vermouth for locals.

The Oscar-winning actress last starred opposite Jude Law in "Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow." She's also wrapped the film version of the David Auburn play "Proof" and will begin shooting her part as Peggy Lee in the upcoming "Every Word Is True" in 2005.
