Video: Gwyneth Paltrow Mocks Taylor Swift

Entertainment January 17, 2011 AT 5:42PM By UsWeekly Staff

Count Gwyneth Patrlow on Team Jake.

Weeks after news broke that Paltrow's pal Jake Gyllenhaal, 30, had dumped Taylor Swift after two months of dating, the Country Strong star, 38, parodied the singer, 21, during her Saturday Night Live hosting gig.

PHOTOS: See who else recently called it quits

In the skit (see clip above), Paltrow as the 5-foot-11 Swift performs at a bar mitzvah and jokes that she's "a foot taller than the tallest man here." She then proceeds to play her hit "You Belong With Me" with "a bar-mitzvah twist," changing the famed chorus to "She's just a J-A-P -- not like Japanese!"

An insider tells the new issue of Us Weekly that Paltrow was shocked when she heard of Gyllenhaal and Swift's split.

Says the source of the actress, who hosted a dinner for the twosome at her London home November 13, "She laughed and said, 'Well, that was a waste of time!'"

I don't think it was anything personal... just an SNL sketch. (she could have done a better impression too though)

If it was even remotely funny, that would be one thing. But it was so lame...I don't think Taylor Swift could do anything but laugh.

I don't think a grown and talented woman like gwyneth would mean harm to a sweetheart like taylor. the video is just what snl is about, it doesn't mean gwyneth is on "team jake" or whatever

Gwenyth has been having a blast these days. Hopefully Taylor doesn't take things too seriously. They're both great singers.

That wasn't so nice of Gwyenth. Her personal feelings for Taylor aside, I thought that she had more class than that.
