LONDON, April 10 (UPI) -- Gwyneth Paltrow says she strayed from a healthy lifestyle while filming the upcoming movie "Love Don't Let Me Down" in Nashville.

Paltrow plays an alcoholic country and western singer. She told Harper's Bazaar in an interview at a London restaurant she had to stop working out because the director, Shana Feste, did not want her body "to have any definition whatsoever."

- "I'll get it back together, but I've never eaten so much fried food and white flour in my life, ever," she said.

Paltrow, 37, said her life, which includes marriage to musician Chris Martin of Coldplay and being a mother to Apple, 6, and Moses, 4, can be exhausting.

"Some days I feel like everyone in my world has plugged themselves into my kidneys. I'm so tired," she said.

She enjoyed filming "Iron Man 2," which opens May 7. She was able to live in a Los Angeles cottage with her family.

"The kids could come every day. They had their mini Jeep that they drove around the parking lot in front of my trailer," she said. "I wasn't naked or crying like on the Nashville movie, where it was like, 'No, you can't visit Mommy today.' "
