United States President Barack Obama spoke before a crowd during a fundraising event hosted by Gwyneth Paltrow in her estate located at Brentwood, California on Thursday and the actress allegedly told the president he was so handsome she couldn't even speak.

The media quoted Paltrow as she said, "You're so handsome that I can't speak properly," adding that she is one of the biggest fans of the president. She also said that the life that Obama brought to the U.S. would be the most scrutinized presidencies in history.

Several Democratic donors were in attendance at the said event as the midterm elections are coming to a close. Obama's campaign season is reportedly not going well with 52 percent of Americans feeling that the president will no longer be re-elected, according to the poles released.

Aside from complimenting Obama for being so well-groomed, Paltrow also praised his platforms. She expressed admiration for the advocacy of Obama regarding equal pay for women as she sees that it is very important to her because she is a working mother.

Obama has been pushing the said advocacy and has reiterated it during the Laborfest in Milwaukee, Wisconsin last September 1. The president cited countries that have already agreed to increase the wage of workers and pointed out how much the economy of those countries increased rapidly.

Paltrow added that Obama was an incredible model for this generation despite reports that his rating for strong leadership has gone to a very low percentage since last month.  

Obama also said he wants to assure the Americans that the recession in the country is over. However, many do not feel the economic improvement, the report said.

The gains brought about by the improvement fn the economy are felt by the middle and the upper class only, Obama explained. He then pressed that average workers cannot feel the changes as he went back to discuss wage increase.

Obama also talked about the Ebola epidemic and assured the Americans they have nothing to worry about as the situation has not yet escalated to the same level as that in the regions in South Africa.

The event had 200 guests who each paid US$1,000 and another 50 attendees were booked for a dinner that cost US$15,000 per person.
