Gwyneth Paltrow has admitted she TP’ed Arnold Schwarzenegger’s home when she was a child trick or treating for Halloween.

The Goop founder, who was previously married to Coldplay’s Chris Martin, grew up in Santa Monica, California with actor mother Blythe Danner and film producer Bruce Paltrow.

Appearing on Monday’s Jimmy Kimmel Live!, The Royal Tenenbaums actor, was questioned about growing up in a Hollywood enclave and the spooky season.

Host Jimmy Kimmel asked: ‘Would you be with other celebrity kids? Knocking on Jack Nicholson’s door or whatever?’

The Shakespeare in Love star, who had dressed up as ‘Gwynnie the Pooh’ replied: ‘Arnold Schwarzenegger used to live on our street. We would knock on his door for candy.’

The presenter joked: ‘Would he give out cigars?  bet he gave out great stuff, huh?’

Gwyneth, 50, responded: ‘I don’t remember him giving out stuff. But he’s Austrian, so maybe they don’t celebrate there.’

Stifling giggles, she continued: ‘We did end up TPing his house, though.’

In mock shock Jimmy said: ‘You did? Does he know this?’, before Gwyneth quipped: ‘Don’t tell him.’

Gwyneth put the antics down to ‘just being naughty kids’ and revealed the Predator star’s house wasn’t the only one in the exclusive neighbourhood she TP’d.

‘But he was our pride and joy,’ she added.

Jimmy remarked: ‘Sure. Yeah, you can tell everybody, ”We got the Terminator’s house!” Wow. Sounds like you have some making up to do.’

Gwyneth previously revealed she is still in touch with ex-fiance Brad Pitt, 58, with her current spouse Brad Falchuk, 51, totally cool with it.

Gwyneth and the Troy actor had been one of the most famous couples of the 90s, getting engaged in 1996 before splitting later that year. 

She told ET: ‘When we first broke up, we weren’t friends for a while and then we sort of found our way back, probably about 18 or 19 years ago, something like that, and then just kind of stayed in touch over the years.
