"Gywneth Paltrow has revealed that losing her father to cancer made her more serious about her health.  The Shakespeare in Love star&amp;#039;s filmmaker father Bruce Paltrow died ten years ago after a bout with oral cancer, just weeks after his daughter&amp;#039;s 30th birthday.    At the Stand Up to Cancer telethon broadcast on Friday (September 7), Paltrow told People: &amp;quot;It really changed the way that I thought. I think I had more of a laissez-faire attitude about my health, and when he got cancer it was a real shock... It was sort of like the break of my adolescence. &amp;quot;This is my one life, and I need to invest in myself and my family and make sure that we can do what we can to stay healthy.&amp;quot; Paltrow served as executive producer for the event, which included appearances from celebrities like Alicia Keys, Emma Watson, Robert Pattinson and Coldplay.       &amp;quot;It&amp;#039;s emotional for me because I keep getting emails from my mother saying how proud she is of me that I&amp;#039;m doing it, and she keeps talking about my father,&amp;quot; Paltrow added.  &amp;quot;It&amp;#039;s emotional to be in front of the cameras and encouraging people to join the fight against cancer. Especially when you&amp;#039;re doing it in memory of someone that you loved so much.&amp;quot; "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
