Gwyneth Paltrow is putting Hollywood on hold to film her own TV cookery show, it was revealed.

The macrobiotic enthusiast will leave hubby Chris Martin and kids Apple and Moses behind for two months as she tours Spain with chef Mario Batali.

It will be a far cry from Tinseltown as Gwyneth and Mario travel the country, cooking and sampling the local delicacies with cameras following her every move.

Although it’s not too clear who will tune into a cookery show for Gwyneth’s Paltrow’s tips.

But the cooking extravaganza, which is being made by American channel PBS, kicks off in October as Gwynnie and Mario take to the Spanish roads.

The actress, 34, is a famously fussy eater and has been ridiculed in the past for her bizarre and strict diet regimes.

They have ranged from strictly macrobiotic to Atkins to vegetarian-who-eats-fish diets. She still doesn’t eat pork or beef, but is willing to sample other delicacies for the show. Gwyneth claimed: “I eat all that [Spanish] stuff. The crazy fish things, the eels, I love it all.” What about the Iberico ham and cold meats?

The TV programme will pay homage to a country where Paltrow spent many childhood summers.

It will also give her a chance to offer America a look at Spanish cooking. Channel 4 and ITV are currently in a bidding war to win the rights to show the programme over here.

A source said: “This is so far removed from what Gwyneth is used to that the show is sure to be a ratings winner. It can’t fail.

One wonders if there’s a macrobiotic recipe for disaster…

“Even if it’s proper car-crash TV it will be entertaining at least.”

Paltrow arrived in Chicago at the same time as her former fiance, Brad Pitt, his companion, Angelina Jolie, and their children. Their presence has meant more star-hunting photographers than usual, said Paltrow, in town Friday to promote perfume at a Macy’s store.

Paltrow also stayed at The Peninsula Chicago, where the Pitt-Jolie family is living while Jolie films the movie “Wanted.”

“When Brad and Angelina leave, won’t they (paparazzi) go, too?” the 34-year-old said. “Don’t you think they sort of blow in and out with the celebs?”

In 2003 the Oscar-winning actress said she loved coming to Chicago “because there’s no paparazzi.”

Supposedly Brad Pitt is reuniting with Gwyneth Paltrow for “Dirty Tricks,” a political drama on the aftermath of the Watergate scandal with Annette Bening, Meryl Streep and Sharon Stone.

I’m not sure how I feel about it! I think it would be a bit weird to work with an ex again, especially when it ended as badly as their relationship did.  I really liked the two of them together….I don’t know why.

Paltrow had a much-publicized romance and engagement to Brad Pitt. She once stated that she regretted breaking up with Pitt, saying in an interview with Diane Sawyer that she wished Pitt well and could not believe he was with her when she was “such a mess.” They were together for over three years.

This movie has been “in talks” for almost a year now.  I remember hearing about this late last year, so who knows if it will ever officially be made.
