Gwyneth Paltrow
told the Wall Street Journal Magazine that she has emailed
Jeff Bezos for advice, but the world’s richest man has never
responded.

The actress and entrepreneur told the Journal that she keeps a
close-knit circle of advisors including Oprah Winfrey and Disney
CEO Bob Iger. However, she said her emails to Jeff Bezos appear
to have gone unnoticed. “I’ve emailed him,” she told the Journal.
“He won’t email back.”

A spokesperson for Bezos declined to comment when contacted by
the Journal. Amazon was not immediately available to comment when
contacted by Business Insider.

Although it is not incumbent upon Bezos to act as mentor to
Paltrow, he has been known to act on emails out of the blue. He
once forwarded on an email that was sent directly to him in
desperation by a man whose
dog was stolen by contractor delivering packages for Amazon.
The dog was later returned to her owner.

In April Bezos said that he still reads customer complaints, and
will
sometimes forward them on to the relevant department. He has
a company email address, [email protected], where customers can
reach out. It is not clear at this stage whether this is address
to which Paltrow sent her emails.
