stars
dated
for
three
years,
beginning

Ben
once
told
GMA
that
Gwyneth's
perfect
man
would
be
someone
like
her
father
and
she
said
his
ideal
woman
would
be
"any
sort
of
stripper
at
Scores...
that
serves
cold
beer
in
a
bikini."

"He
was
not
in
a
good
place
in
his
life
to
have
a
girlfriend," and
also
admitted
that
whatever

told
over
the
heat
of
the
moment
about

stripper
women
was
indeed
true!
