Running With Scissors star Paltrow is a reasonably successful actress — but her parents hoped she’d find a cure for AIDS!

“She’s so smart, we wanted her to find a cure for AIDS or something.” her mom Blythe Danner, 66, recently revealed “We were pretty firm about her finishing her education, but when we saw how talented she was, we finally said okay.”

Gwyneth, 36, recently called Spain her “second home”.

“It is so different from the United States,” she said. “It seemed to have a history, and the buildings are years and years and years old. Here in the United States an old building is about 17 (years old), and over there it’s from 500 B.C., it’s incredible.

“Also, the way people live over there. They seem to enjoy life a little bit more. They aren’t running around as much as in New York. They enjoy time with the family. They don’t always have their Blackberries on.”

“Moses [her son] speaks a little bit [of Spanish], but understands everything. Apple speaks a lot,” Paltrow adds.
