Gwyneth Paltrowis spilling about her new show,Sex, Love & Goop.
The actress, 49, appeared onJimmy Kimmel LiveTuesday, where she shared how she found couples for her newNetflixseries about sex and intimacy, and even let hostJimmy Kimmeltest out some exciting new additions to her Goop gift guide, which include sex drive supplement pills.
Paltrow told Kimmel, 53, that she was inspired to create her new docuseriesSex, Love & Goopto show the importance of intimacy.
“People who’ve been in long term, intimate relationships or even shorter intimate relationships, things can come up really quickly that feel like disconnects or that keep you not quite telling yourself the whole truth,” she said. “So we thought it would be really interesting to make a show around this subject because it’s an area where what is out of alignment in your life, it’s gonna show up in how you are with your partner.”

The Goop founder explained that she and her team found the couples featured in the series through a casting process — not through Craigslist, as Kimmel joked earlier in the show.
She added, “I thank the couples for coming forward and putting themselves on the line like that.”
Kimmel hinted at the purpose of the supplements, telling the audience, “we know fromJersey Shorewhat it stands for.”
“Does this really work?” he asked Paltrow, who confirmed with a confident “yes.” But Kimmel didn’t just take her word for it. He decided to try the pills for himself.
While Paltrow told him “women are supposed to take two” of the pills, Kimmel upped the dose for himself. “I’m going to take four and we’ll see what happens … I hope nothing happens right away,” he told her, before downing the four capsules at once.
After watching Kimmel pop the four pills, Paltrow quipped that his wife, Molly McNearney, would be in for an interesting evening.
“Molly is in for it!” she joked.
Paltrow previouslytold PEOPLEshe hopes her series can “give everyone permission to be brave and connect with themselves and ask crazy questions,” adding, “Sex can be a fascinating barometer for how honest you’re being in your own life.”
