Gwyneth Paltrow swung by Jimmy Kimmel Live, and while things usually get a little weird on that show in one way or another.
This time it was because Jimmy took a wif of Gwyneth's recently released "vagina scented" candle, and fans can hardly handle it.
I'll give you a moment to process that information.
Who in their right mind would spend $75 on a candle? Reasonable question.
Evidently, enough people to sell out of the product entirely.
I find the words used to describe the smell rather peculiar...
"Funny" and "unexpected" are two words I would ideally not want a lit candle in my apartment to smell like. But ok.
This honestly sounds like it could smell pretty great. Probably nothing like Gwyneth's — or anybody's vagina.
I digress! The story behind how the candle got its name is pretty straightforward.
"And during a test-run of one of the scent samples, Gwyneth said: "Uhhh...this smells like a vagina."
Gwyneth really stirred the pot with this one! The Internet has, naturally, been in a frenzy over it ever since.
As expected, Jimmy wanted to talk about the infamous candle.
"As a joke!," she added.
"What a punk-rock, feminist statement, to have that on your table," she continued.
("He" is the aforementioned Douglas Little, btw).
And rather than just sniffing the wax like a normal person, he actually lit the candle as well.
"Well, it's not really supposed to smell like a vagina," Gwyn interrupted — confirming that the name of the candle is just that, a name.
Let us know what you think of Gwyneth Paltrow's recently released vagina candle!
