Gwyneth Paltrow Signs Autographs in the Hamptons Pictures

Sporting a golden glow, Gwyneth Paltrow looked like she was on vacation yesterday during a book signing event held in the Hamptons. Gwyneth arrived wearing a bikini top, hidden under a blue and white nautical sweater, denim cutoff shorts, and a slicked-back ponytail for the casual event. She happily posed for photos and autographed copies of her cookbook, My Father's Daughter, appearing calm even with the threat of Hurricane Irene looming over the East Coast. Residents in coastal areas and low-lying towns were advised to evacuate prior to Irene's imminent landfall, though some celebrities like Sarah Jessica Parker and Alec Baldwin opted to ride out the storm. The unpredictable weather could delay Gwyneth's future travel plans prior to the release of her next film Contagion. Her costars Matt Damon, Laurence Fishburne, and Jennifer Ehle were on hand at today's LA press conference, where Matt and the film's director, Steven Soderbergh, jokingly assured reporters Gwyneth's autopsy scene will likely be referred to as "iconic."
