Gwyneth Paltrow makes being svelte look easy, but the actress tells Oprah Winfrey that she finds it nearly impossible to stick to a diet.

“I just cannot diet,” Paltrow, 35, says on The Oprah Winfrey show airing Wednesday. “I think maybe it’s the idea that you can’t have something … I just can’t do it.”

Instead of counting calories, the slender Oscar-winner prefers to work up a sweat. “It’s worth it to me to do that extra exercise so I can eat what I want and not think about it.”

Paltrow, who also reveals that she had trouble losing “these 20 extra pounds” after giving birth to her son Moses, now 2, appears on the program with close pal, chef Mario Batali. The pair cooked, ate and drank their way across Spain for their upcoming show, Spain … On the Road Again.

The PBS series, which debuts Sept. 20, follows them on a culinary tour of 13 cities. “The Gwyneth you see in Spain is the real Gwyneth,” Batali told People. “Funny, and likes her food.”

Hamptonites who paid up to $2,500 to attend a benefit were not happy with Gwyneth Paltrow Saturday night.

Already disappointed that honorary chair Madonna didn’t show for the Amaryllis Farm Equine Rescue Organization party, at photographer Steven Klein’s Bridgehampton farm, guests became even more crestfallen when Paltrow spent most of the time off-limits in Klein’s house.

“Gwyneth stayed in the house from the beginning,” sniffed one guest. “She was hanging inside the house with Steven and with Kelly Klein nearly the entire time. Nobody could go inside the house — they had security blocking the way. It was so rude.”

Even Billy Joel’s wife, Katie, was turned back, says a source.

Making matters even more annoying, people kept bumping into things in the dark out on the photographer’s horse riding field.

“It was a ‘black’ party — everybody had to wear black,” our source says. “[Klein] had a bonfire off to the side, but there were no lights whatsoever, and his backyard is huge. He has these black benches all around, and people kept crashing into them.”

Paltrow did emerge for about five minutes to address the group, which included Calvin Klein, Donna Karan, Andrew Saffir, Nicole Miller, Sale Johnson, Russell Simmons, Rosanna Scotto, Rocco DiSpirito and Marcy Warren.

After crying, “I can’t see! I can’t see!” as she teetered to the field, the “Iron Man” star talked about Amaryllis, which helps stop the slaughter of horses, donkeys and mules for dog meat in Mexico.

Paltrow then introduced Olympic dressage coach Robert Dover, who rode Maksymilian, a gelding that had been rescued from slaughter and is now worth $1 million. She also read a poem about the legendary horse Snowman, “whose heart was as radiant as the white snow” and who was rescued by Harry de Leyer, a Long Island riding instructor.

“In saving the horse, Harry became an instrument of the divine,” said Paltrow. “When we make the only choice possible, and that is to love, then all of us become what we were intended to be. We are the power.”

If only Paltrow would use her power, some thought, to let everybody into the house, which is where she quickly sequestered herself the rest of the evening. But all’s well that ends well: After an auction of Klein’s photographs, the evening raised $200,000 for the charity.

Courtney Love has lavished praise on her close friend Gwyneth Paltrow – insisting the Hollywood actress always “takes good care” of her.

The former Hole frontwoman met Paltrow while the actress was filming her Oscar-winning role in 1999 movie Shakespeare In Love and the pair has been close pals ever since.

And Love insists that despite drifting apart over the last few years, Paltrow and her husband Chris Martin are now incredibly caring towards her.

She writes on her Myspace internet page, “It’s amazing Gwyneth­ Paltrow and her amazing husband Chris and I have reconnected. She has always been a very close friend of mine. Regardless of people’s perception of Gwyneth, compassion is her middle name. I love this girl, I love her husband, I love her kids. She takes damn good care of me. She calls me once a month to make sure I am doing OK.”

With her thigh-grazing, silver dress showing the hint of a bump, rumours are growing that Miss Paltrow could be expecting baby number three.Talk of a possible pregnancy first surfaced in January after the star was admitted to hospital in New York suffering from a mystery illness.

And the 35-year-old, who has two children with Coldplay singer Chris Martin, Apple, four, and Moses, two,  is apparently keen to extend her family.

In an interview with US magazine Harper’s Bazaar earlier this month she admitted: ‘I may force myself to do it one more time because the result is so worth it.

‘And also my dad said to me that his only regret in life was that he had only two children and he didn’t have more.’

Speculation has not been helped by the apparent change in Miss Paltrow’s usually ultra-slender physique, which she credits to a gruelling workout regime.
