Gwyneth Paltrow stopped by 'The Ellen DeGeneres Show' (weekdays, syndicated) and discussed the possibility of making an album. According to Paltrow, she hasn't signed a recording contract yet, but she's seriously considering it. She just needs to work up the courage first, though."I kind of have to get my head around the concept of it and how I would want to do it," she said.

It feels a little scary to me, but I would like to in theory. We'll see."
