When Harry Met Sally (1989) star Meg Ryan opened up about her acting career while talking to actor Gwyneth Paltrow at the In Goop Health summit in Los Angeles over the weekend. Raising the topic of being tagged as 'America's Sweetheart', Paltrow talked to Ryan about being pigeon-holed by society. "You're either intelligent or sexual or maternal, and I really feel like we're at a time where those borders are coming down, and it's coming with a lot of cultural upheaval in a way," Paltrow said.

Ryan, who was married to actor Dennis Quaid back in her heyday from 1991 to 2001, said, for the most part of her acting career, she had a lot of fun. "I never wanted to be an actor.... I didn't feel exactly in it. I felt like a student of it in a way, or that I was watching it in an anthropological way," Ryan said.
