As per Gwyneth Paltrow’s request, Paramount Studios lavished $120,000 on a private celebration at an exclusive London restaurant over the weekend, inviting 30 of the actress’s closest friends and family and providing the finest champagne and cocktails.  But at the last minute, Gwyneth decided she wanted to go for dinner elsewhere and didn’t show up, leaving a mix of in-laws and publicists to chat awkwardly over the extravagantly wasted effort.  According to sources with ties to the Paramount organization, the word “diva” is an extremely polite euphemism for what executives are now calling her.
