‘Jeffrey Dahmer’s glasses!’ Gwyneth Paltrow gets roasted for her ‘serial killer’ look on social media during her ski test
Gwyneth Paltrow was mocked on social media on Tuesday for wearing aviator-style reading glasses at a ski trial in Utah that drew comparisons to killer Jeffrey Dahmer.
The 50-year-old actress wore the big glasses along with a cream knit sweater and tweed harem pants on the opening day of a trial in Utah over a 2016 skiing accident involving a retired optometrist.
“Jeffrey Dahmer’s glasses,” one commenter wrote in response to a news article showing Gwyneth with the glasses.
“I like their serial killer vibe,” read another.
Dahmer, also known as the Milwaukee Cannibal, was a serial killer and sex offender who killed and dismembered 17 men and boys between 1978 and 1991 and wore similar glasses in his 1991 mugshot.

“Jeffrey Dahmer meets Gwyneth Paltrow,” read another comment.
“Gwyneth Paltrow literally going for the #Dahmer look on this ski accident trail… wtf? Not very on brand for @goop,’ another commenter posted.
One humorous post read, “These are exactly the kind of 1980s aviator goggles you should be wearing if you’re being sued by a retired optometrist.”
Paltrow and Terry Sanderson, the man who was suing them, sat opposite each other in a Park City courtroom as their attorneys made opening statements that gave strikingly different accounts of the crash. Both called their customers victims and blamed the other for the collision at Deer Valley, one of the country’s premier ski resorts.
The two showed little emotion as lawyers questioned their credibility and version of events on the first day of the trial, which is expected to last eight days. Sanderson’s attorneys said they plan to call Paltrow to the witness stand Friday, but they may do so earlier in the week depending on the availability of the other witnesses.
Paltrrow protected her face from photographers with a blue notebook initialed “GP” as she entered and exited the courtroom. Sanderson wore a gray suit and walked halfway before witnesses testified.
