The late Bruce Paltrow, is fondly remembered by his daughter Gwyneth Paltrow, but her mother's mother? Not so much.

Last night Chelsea interviewed Paltrow, who talked about her daughter Apple's vegan choices, her late dad's disgust at her organic food, and how her son can crack clean eggs.

Chelsea Handler and Gwyneth Paltrow are both half-German who each had grandmothers referred to as "Mutti."

Handler joked that her Mutti “was a real bitch,” but Paltrow raised the stakes, saying “My Mutti was a real c**t”

Paltrow claimed her Mutti “tried to poison my mother against me, but it didn’t work because I have a great mother … She must not have been very happy and she must have had a lot of pain because she was mean as hell.”

"She was a German and they have a lot to feel bad about," Handler shot back.

Also Blythe Danner is called "Lah-lo" by her grandchildren.
