Is there anything whiter than Gwyneth Paltrow singing Broadway versions of hip hop songs? Nope: so, watch the Mortdecai star singing Nicki Minaj, Drake and Big Sean songs Broadway style with Jimmy Fallon on The Tonight Show... because of course you should! Paltrow, the 'consciously uncoupled' ex-wife of Coldplay's Chris Martin took to NBC's late night show and showed off her singing chops and delivered musical theater versions of hip-hop's biggest hits... and also revealed that she's so polite that she used to leave notes for her parents when she snuck out to drink wine coolers on the steps of New York's Metropolitan Museum. Could Gwyneth Paltrow be any whiter?

With Fallon accompanying her piano in his best Vegas-crooner attire, the star of new movie Mortdecai — opposite Johnny DeppEwan McGregor and Olivia Munn — took on Drake's "Started From the Bottom," with a pretty excellent slamming of the "started from the bottom / Now the whole team's here," lyrics and then headed to Nicki Minaj's "Anaconda" doing a pretty passably low-voiced "

The last number they go big. "How big?" asks the Goop founder. Big Sean big, that's how big. They proceed to drop Big Sean's "I Don't Fuck With You", and to hear Paltrow sing "I don't fuck with you, you little stupid ass bitch / I ain't fuckin' with you, you little dumb ass bitch," really is one of life's great pleasures.... Especially when you think of her directing it towards, say, one of her ex-husband's new flings, like Jennifer Lawrence.

And, if nothing else, it's a lot more fun than her Huey Lewis-duetting turn in 2000's Duets.

Check out Paltrow being super white and singing hip hop tunes below.

Afterwards Paltrow talked about her high school barbershop 'nine-tet' band, 'Triple Trio', where she would sing songs like "Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy" and "For The Longest Time," and growing up in New York. She also talked about how she hopes 'baby' Apple - who's now "10 and a half, nearly eleven" - doesn't do the things that Gwyneth did while growing up, like smoking cigarettes, and sneaking out of the house.

"We used to like to go to the steps of the Metropolitan Bartles & Jaymes wine coolers, the peach wine coolers. But when I would sneak out, I would leave a note for my parents on my bed in case they caught me in the middle of the night... because I didn't want them to worry that something really bad had happened."

"You are such a geek," teased Fallon.

"I know!" laughed Paltrow. "I said like: 'I'm really sorry, I'm feeling rebellious and I snuck out. It's the first time I've ever done it, I've never done this before, and if you catch me you can punish me in the morning... but I"m out drinking Bartles and Jaymes wine coolers.'"
