"Despite never meeting face-to-face, Max Greenfield and Gwyneth Paltrow have become close pals in recent months.\r\n&amp;quot;We e-mail all the time but I&amp;apos;ve never met her. I just think her website [GOOP] is fun! And I think she&amp;apos;s fun!&amp;quot; the New Girl actor, 31, told Us Weekly July 29 on the set of his new AXE &amp;quot;Susan Glenn&amp;quot; campaign.\r\n&amp;quot;I had done a piece for GOOP a while back and I e-mailed her recently and said, &amp;apos;Hey, Gwyneth, what if my next piece for GOOP was me getting ready for the Emmys?&amp;apos;&amp;quot; he said of the actress, 39. &amp;quot;She was like, &amp;apos;Done!&amp;apos; So now we are going to document it and put it on GOOP!&amp;quot;\r\n\r\n(Introducing Greenfield&amp;apos;s GOOP entry in May, Paltrow called the actor &amp;quot; the kind of guy you lusted after at your cousin&amp;apos;s Bar Mitzvah.&amp;quot;)\r\nGreenfield is up against Saturday Night Live&amp;apos;s Bill Hader, 34, and Modern Family&amp;apos;s Ed O&amp;apos;Neill, 66, Eric Stonestreet, 40, Jesse Tyler Ferguson, 36, and Ty Burrell, 44, in the outstanding supporting actor in a comedy series category. This is the New Girl star&amp;apos;s first Primetime Emmy Award nomination.\r\n\r\n&amp;quot;It takes a few phone calls from people for it to set in that it&amp;apos;s real,&amp;quot; admitted Greenfield, who was shooting his new film, They Came Together, in New York City when he heard about his nod. &amp;quot;I think the third person to tell me was Paul Rudd,&amp;quot; he said of his latest movie costar. &amp;quot;And I remember having a feeling like, &amp;apos;I can&amp;apos;t believe this is happening! Two years ago I was auditioning for The Disney Channel, and now Paul Rudd is saying, &amp;apos;Hey man, congratulations on your Emmy nomination!&amp;apos;&amp;quot;\r\n\r\n&amp;quot;I had to walk out of the trailer for a minute and to say, &amp;apos;What is happening with my life?&amp;apos;&amp;quot; Greenfield added. &amp;quot;And then I had to go back in and say, &amp;apos;OK, let&amp;apos;s own this!&amp;quot;\r\nGreenfield celebrated later that night with a childhood friend at Torrisi restaurant in Manhattan&amp;apos;s NoLita neighborhood. &amp;quot;It was really nice to come home the next week to the family and say, &amp;quot;Hey guys, we did it!&amp;apos;&amp;quot;\r\n\r\nThe actor is already hard at work on season 2 of New Girl, costarring Zooey Deschanel, 32, Jake Johnson, 34, Lamorne Morris, 31, and Hannah Simone, 31. &amp;quot;I really love going to work every day and having a nice job to show up to,&amp;quot; Greenfield told Us. &amp;quot;The summer is over for me!&amp;quot;"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
