Gwyneth Paltrow's baby daughter Apple is an R'n'B fan.

Although dad Chris Martin fronts British rockers Coldplay, the 16-month-old tot prefers hip-hop.

Gwyneth revealed: "She loves R'n'B music - if Jay-Z comes on she starts dancing!"

The Hollywood actress has also admitted how Apple helped her get over the death of her beloved father, Bruce Paltrow, who passed away in 2002.

She explained: "When Apple was born the sadness was lifted. It felt like a blessing. Our family had been through so much - she really just lifted our hearts."

Meanwhile, Gwyneth has told how she was shocked by her first encounter with nudists.

The Oscar-winning star revealed she was horrified when she met a naked family while on holiday with her parents as a teenager.

She said: "My parents suggested my brother and I spend an afternoon with a nice family they had met.

"But when we got there they turned out to be nudists. My brother and I were really shocked."
