Oooh, this should get people riled up! Now that I’ve convinced myself that Jennifer Aniston is drunk most of the time (I believe it because it explains so much), I can’t help but notice how she seems somewhat disoriented in some of her first promotional interviews, during her PR tour for Just Go With It. Aniston was on Conan last night, and for the first few minutes, there were some notable slurs and oddly timed awkward moments. But then everything evened out a little bit. Also – I think Aniston was doing that drunk thing of talking too loud – I do that too when I’m hammered. She really does seem to be talking louder than needed, although perhaps I just think that because I find her voice kind of annoying.
There’s an interesting bit where Conan asks her to confirm or deny various tabloid rumors. Conveniently, Aniston was just on Star Magazine with an adoption story, so that gave her something to talk about and deny – which she’s been doing in every interview thus far. Conan also asked her about the rumor that Aniston contractually mandates that the crew can’t get within 20 feet of her while she’s on set – Aniston denied that story as well, although I have to admit something: I’ve heard some version of “Aniston doesn’t want the peasants to talk to her” over and over again throughout the years.
Last thing – Aniston is appearing on Ellen today, and Ellen asks her if she has plans to adopt another dog:
She had her rep issue a denial to PEOPLE, and now Jennifer Aniston is doing it herself.
During a taping for Thursday’s The Ellen DeGeneres Show, the actress shot down rumors that she’s going to become a mother.
When DeGeneres asked, “Are you going to adopt another dog?”, Aniston replied, “I think you’re confusing that with the Mexican child I’m supposedly adopting.”
“Oh, are you going to adopt a Mexican child?” the host asks.
“No, I’m not adopting a Mexican child,” says Aniston, 41, joking that her Just Go With It costar Adam Sandler “adopted four last week and that never even got mentioned. No, I’m not adopting any children.”
As for the first question, Aniston adds, “And no doggies right now.”

No babies, no dogs, she’s going to the SuperBowl and she’s still talking about her hair. It’s like an interview from 2004!

She is TOTES wasted!!!!!!!!! But it makes me actually like her a little bit. She is one of those people who being drunk and doing drugs makes them more interesting. If she did this sober she would be boring as f*ck…
I think she is trying to ride out the last little bit of “relevance” she has.
I would tend to agree with you Kaiser. I recognise the awkward pause in a sentence because you’re hammered and your brain can’t put it all together. Done it myself. Just that once. I wonder if she has developed some anxiety issues after so many movie flops and increasing criticism?
She was cleaning out the cocktail cart in the green room.
In my opinion, she is washed up, and needs to find a new profession.
Don’t know if she was drunk or if her dumbness has just hit another level.
This woman is just so empty for her age and laughs stupidly and talks loudly like those women who usually go to bars to have stupid conversations with long distance truck-drivers.
I like her, but I’m starting to think there’s something to this. Unless she’s just super nervous and therefore awkward…
She is leaning back a lot in the chair as if to keep from any alcohol smell away from Conan. She may need a drink to relax….who knows… Seems kinda lonely……..watching a football game by herself. I guess she was throwing out an invitations for company.. hint, hint
Man. people need to leave Jennifer alone (sorta like, the guy said it in the Leave Britney Alone video)
Im sure she could retire today and live modestly for the rest of her life. Hook up with someone that has a bit of money and have a baby and settle down.. She seems to do too many movies and doesnt do them very well.
I know I’ll probably get lambasted for writing this but I thought that was a great interview, very funny! I don’t think she was wasted at all! I’d be interested in seeing the movie too, looks funny and I love Adam Sandler!
I don’t see drunk, but that was such a bland non-event of an interview.
She certainly has a problem with her “sh”s, lol.
Not seeing it myself. One word mispronounced or slurred, I do that all the time and I’m teetotal.
I actually enjoyed the interview, Conan and Jen have good chemistry.
I think all Jen has to do is breath and its wrong, girl can’t do right these days. Thank goodness she looks so great and has more money than most people could ever dream of.
Oh Jennifer. Poor Jennifer.
She had her moment and if only she would savor it and not expect that it could have lasted forever.
She was very cute on Friends. But she’s no great actress and no great beauty.
In the scheme of things, she’s been very lucky and it’s time for her to give back.
If she can’t, she’ll remain this slightly pathetic child-woman all her life.
Not sure if you people are watching the same video. I don’t see Jen acting drunk. You all are looking too hard.
i have for the most part, stayed out of commenting on JA, if only bc i think that essentially she is harmless
that and the fact that if i were rich and famous, id probably be living it up, drinking, vacationing… only i wouldnt try and pretend i wanted the ultimate soccer mom fantasy life at the end of the day. i’d own up to my free-spirit life!
She always seems a little stoned to me.
@ renai (jrt), Jennifer Aniston has enough money to live for the rest of her life in her current accomodations (or larger), snorting Happy and drinking vodka and doing whatever punishing workouts it takes to maintain the 40 & Fabulous body. She is still getting Friends syndication money, she made millions upon millions for the original series, and she makes bank for the crappy movies. She’s not working for money. She’s working for validation and recognition. She doesn’t want to go away, have babies, and live quietly. She wants the attention, the adulation, and the recognition that comes with her lifestyle. She’s as calculated as any celeb in the business. The sad part…She had the chance. She made a couple of decent movies. But…She wasn’t Rachel in those movies. She wasn’t recognizable to herself. Now she plays pathetic rom-com characters as a shadow of the coffee-house waitress, great hair, everyone’s idea of the perfect girl. There’s no range, no depth, and no nuance to her characters. We got one glimpse of promise, and 5 years of “Rachel.” It irritates me when people don’t live up to their potential.
Of course, I’m working from home today in my jammies, so who am I to judge?
She is BFF with a self confessed drunk these days so they probably drink together. There is no reason she should be this nervous and inarticulate and constantly slurring her words after all the years of interviews she has done. She also really appears to have a very limited vocabulary. I see why she is cast in only rom com roles these days.
I think you are projecting. She doesn’t seem drunk, she’s just not very funny. The awkward angle of that chair she was in probably contributed to her leaning back on the arm like that.
@PrettyTarheel: The residuals from Friends ended in 2009. But with a net worth of somewhere between $120 and $140 million, she’s got more money than she will ever be able to spend.
I could only get through half because I was falling asleep at my keyboard. Maybe she was a little drunk or high, who knows.
Her career hasn’t done very well, but I don’t think it’s a problem that she doesn’t want kids. Not everyone wants them, myself included.
@Prettytarheel, exactly she wants it for the attention and fame and power……..this is never good and people that gotta-have it ALL usually live very unhappy lives. Cant she just live her life and stay out of the public eye on every given day of her life as it seems that we the public see her
I tend to avoid the JA/Angie posts just on general principle. But yeah, she seems drunk here. And I’ve gotta say, in my view she is one of the most boring, empty people in the public eye. There just isn’t much to her. Granted, I don’t know her so maybe I’m totally off the mark, but her public persona is one of a bland, shallow, superficial person. I tend to find her harmless in spite of all of this, but I do question the heart and mind of a person who parties with Joe Francis.
I guess I’ve just opened myself up for attack from the Jen-loonies. Sigh. All I’ve gotta say to that is that if your life revolves around a celebrity, any celebrity at all, to the point that you troll through message boards on gossip sites to attack people, well, you might want to consider therapy.
If the worst thing you can find to write about her is that she’s maybe a secret lush, based entirely on a couple of slurred words in two out of the thousands of interviews she’s done in her career, then she’s keeping her nose pretty clean by Hollywood standards.
I agree that everything she does is overanalyzed and then beaten to death ad nauseum because it gets people commenting, which is odd because she’s actually a pretty lowkey, boring person in my opinion.
So for Jen, Mexican baby= dog. She just keeps putting her pedicure in her mouth.
She always seemed like a depressive to me. Probably self-medicating with booze & benzos.
Geekchic, hows that working for ya…. avoiding the JA/AJ gossips? you doing a great job at it!!
I don’t have any feelings one way or the other about her personally. Professionally, she’s hit a road block. But I wanted to say that since I’ve been on this website, it appears that you (Kaiser) have a bias against her. I don’t think you judge her fairly.
She didn’t seem drunk to me. Just very, very boring. All she can do is play with her hair (STOP THAT!) and be cutesy.
That may have been cute if she was, like, 15 years old, but not from a grown woman.
Everytime I hear her talk now…I think she’s slurring.
@Cheyenne, Sorry I thought she was still getting syndication funds. Either way, she’s got enough to keep her in tanning oil and vodka!
Stopped at 41 seconds- just too sad and embarassing. Slurring, slowed speech, wobbling in her chair- intellect just seems dulled. Too bad, too. That whole JA-BP-AJ thing must really be eating away at her.
It is insane to me that some cannot see she’s drunk. A person without a problem would know when to stop & would recognize his/her impairment, and not display it nationally- they would foresee the career/publicity implications. Guess you have to have had close knowledge of one to recognize it in one.
As I already said- sad. I liked her as a comedic actress.
I liked the interview, she seemed fine to me..not hammmered..she may have had a drink or two in the green r5oom..so what???? As long as she keeps getting paid to make movies..and they are not all flops, she has made a couple movies that didn’t go to the bank, but she has made more that have made a lot of money!! also..she doesn’t ask for 20 milloion dollars a picture…Im a fan of hers..and think she is beautiful.
Oh mannnn, I went to see Conan being viewed last week, I missed this?!?! I can’t believe she was so drunk on a TUESDAY AFTERNOON. Still on Cabo time? Or is it just lonely time?
I don’t think she’s drunk. I just get boring out of it. And YES STOP PLAYING WITH YOUR HAIR!!!! that drives me crazy!!!! Conan is much more interesting than she is. He did most of the talking. She has nothing interesting to say. Except I thought it was cool that she can still come to the studio and people she knows still work there..
rettyTarheel: she’s got enough to keep her in tanning oil and vodka!
==========================================
Maybe she could do something constructive with it, like build a few schools or clinics in Mexico since she likes the place so much.
____________________________________________
@SassyOne: If the whole JA-BP-AJ thing is still eating away at her after six years, she needs a new shrink and a major dose of meds. This is getting beyond ridiculous.
It’s not booze. It’s grass. She is a pothead.
@Cheyenne: That’s a great point. I’m sure she does charity work…even she can’t tan her ass 24-7. Why doesn’t she talk about it? And BEFORE anyone attacks me with the whole, “Because unlike AJ, she prefers to do things for private good,” I believe it would make her more interesting, more well-rounded, and more appealing as an individual. She has a lot of fans, and setting a good example by devoting her time and energy to a good cause would be a great way to use her funds.
She sure sounds a little whacked and loud. But I agree…she needs to go away. I never could stomach her.
I think she’s kind of boring too, as far as celebs go – which is why I don’t get all the fascination and scrutiny of her life.
I haven’t seen it yet, so I don’t know if she seemed tipsy or not, but I don’t think she’s ever been a very good interviewee. She often seems guarded and uncomfortable.
I don’t care what she does in her personal life, but professionally I agree with Julie that she’s at a road block, and if she ever wants to do more than rom coms, this is the time to stop and wait for a better project. Or maybe she likes doing them, I don’t know. We aren’t forced to watch them, so if she wants to keep churning them out, that’s up to her.
“So for Jen, Mexican baby= dog” Huh? I don’t get that at all. She was answering two different rumors.
I thinks she’s both; drunk and annoying.
Pills.
“You’ve brought back memories of a SH-certain show”????? Something’s up with that slurred speech.
cool **hiccup**
I’ve never been a fan of hers and I can’t watch the video but I think she’s trying to expand her range a little,especially with her next movies (wanderlust and the one about being a predatory dentist). I understand the criticisms against her but I still think she’s just trying to live her life her way, and as women we can be a bit too quick to judge.
She seems fine to me. A little awkward perhaps and I want to hand her a hair clip though so she doesn’t have to move her hair out of her face constantly but not drunk. Not even buzzed. *shrug*
I can take or leave her but I will say that I’ve always thought she has a really pretty smile.
I think she’s a pot head, also as boring as a box of hair.
She has nothing to talk about. That is the bottom line. When the interviewer is reduced to talking about his beard then you know this is a lost cause. She to my knowledge has never really done long sit down interviews. MAINLY because she is just not interesting at all. Nothing to bring to the table.
Many people figured that out LOOONNNG ago.
And I think a fun drinking game.(if I drank, but I don’t) is take a shot every time she touched her hair.. YOU would be drunk in the 5 minutes.
Just because you are friendly and harmless does not mean you are a good person. She just seems so vapid. UGH
Notice that you have learned NOTHING about her in any interview. Every question or comment is always about “how good she looks” that she is “good friend”
Nothing interesting. What does she do.. does she feel strongly about anything. Has she taken a stand on anything.. I don’t think these questions will ever be answered.
I don’t think she is drunk just boring. I watched her on Extra I think, and she said she has never even considered adoption. So maybe the tabloids will move on on that issue.
I liked her, liked the interview. She’s a hot chick who gives off a slightly masculine air. She seems like she’d be fun to hang with.
She’s too old and experienced to be “nervous and awkward” – although that’s sometimes the persona she likes to put forth. Makes her seem younger and more cutesy.
She seems to have an emotional age of about 15. And a little drinky-poo problem.
She didn’t appear drunk to me either and I agree with the other poster that said some of you are looking too hard for something to critisize.
She gives plenty to charity as do other celebrities they just choose not to advertise every time they do. Perhaps they rely on their acting ability for PR instead.
As for the triangle, the only reason it exists is because some of you want to keep it going. There is no triangle!!!
skibunny: She gives plenty to charity as do other celebrities they just choose not to advertise every time they do. Perhaps they rely on their acting ability for PR instead.
==========================================
That might work for her, if she had any.
I don’t understand why people who find her soooo uninteresting feel the need to comment about just how uninteresting she is all the time. I find certain people completely uninteresting so I don’t comment on their stories, usually I don’t even read them.
I don’t find her particularly interesting, but she’s kinda funny and silly and doesn’t take herself seriously. She sort of acts like your goofy, crazy, cool aunt-the one who gives you pot and lets you skateboard off the roof into her pool.
I think she was definitely a bit toasted-maybe had a drink and a puff. She always seems nervous and uncomfortable doing these types of things. I wonder why.
She doesn’t have much range, no. But her movies haven’t been flops no matter how many times folks claim them to be. She’s a solid earner for the studios and she, like any other actor, is a famewhore and that’s why she continues to do films.
She is so obviously drunk on Conan. She cant make eye contact, slurs her words, Its not just an annoying voice- she is hammered! I dont think its just pot since typically high people dont slur their words or dodge their eyes around like she is. She is exhibiting signs of being drunk and maybe high but not just high.
She has been on so many interviews over the yrs where she didnt speak like this so its obvious she is on something.
Hey, the drunker she gets, the better I’ll look to her. 😉 Drink up, Jenny.
She’s not harmless.
I think she gets so uncomfortable in these situations because she has to present herself as something she isn’t.
I always get the feeling she’s wondering if people are seeing through her from moment to moment.
She seems distracted by it, like she has to check the waters every couple of minutes to see if everyone’s still on board with her act.
It makes for awkward, distracted interviews like this. No one could be this boring.
Cheyenne: Lol I knew you were going to say that!!!
@ NayNay: I think Jen realizes that her film career is sinking fast; so she wants to re-invent herself as the new Paula Abdul.
give her a break…she lost her husband to another woman…that shit happens, but it is hard to get through…let her have a drink or two…so what!
My other half and I watched this last night. Halfway through, he said, “Wow… she’s a little slurry. Does she always talk like that?”
to whoever said “pills”, I agree.
I also said as much on the thread about her award presentation (pictured above).
I think she does get nervous being interviewed or being on stage/camera when she’s not acting (and I don’t agree that simply being over 40 makes that go away) so she takes a tranq (or a valium) before she “goes on”.
Wow. when and why have you all gotten so mean and negative around here? Its not just about Aniston, either. its in all the posts. Makes me really sad.
She definitely had some ‘personality drinks’!
Suuuuretain.
Yeah, definitely not drunk/’tipsy’… 😉 LOL
She is looking rather puffy in the face too, is that from fillers? Or booze bloat? Hmmm…
@Icedwavez and NayNay: ITA.
Last night my hubby and I were watching E news when a JA and Sandler interview came on. Sandler made a remark about Aniston being a heavy drinker or something to that effect. Anistons reaction was priceless lol.
She’s “Judy Garlanding” (as she once refered to being a drunk).
Flipping her hair or shaking it every 10 seconds. She’s definitely gooned.
Maybe her next role should be on celeberty rehab.
I think she is stoned a lot of the time. I like ‘stoned Jen’ though, she just doesn’t seem to care anymore!
Hamm is my dream man,
We dont find her to be so interesting… We find our opinions of her to be so interesting and out of boredom we come her and spout off to validate our opinions. None of us know Jen but then again she is putting herself out there in the public on an average of every other given day so what does she expect!!
just an observation, but for someone that doesnt like to get attention for her hair……she fixes and adjusts hers a lot.
So JA is worth well over $100 million and is one of the most famous women in the world, and people on this blog are calling her career “unsuccessful.”
If this is failure, what does success look like to you?
ISN’T SHE ALWAYS? HOW SAD THAT THAT’S THE ONLY WAY SHE CAN FACE HER SO-CALL LIFE, HER DAYS AND THE PUBLIC.
She is slurring–drinking or bad dental work.
Probably a couple of drinks, but she didn’t appear slightly drunk to me, although I find her highly annoying–she needs to quit constantly flipping her hair. Just don’t like her and I don’t really know why–as soon as she came on Oprah, I flipped the channel. Don’t find her at all pretty, and she’s got way too much hair.
Still. She was great in Office Space.
Jen fans is in denial, she was drunk on Conans show, didn’t her close friends say that they were concerned about her drinking and that JA needs rehab? There must be some truth to it. JA a few years ago used to sound and talk more intelligent and intouch with current events. JA recent interviews is almost like that of a pre-teen. About hair, broccoli, and water, sad,sad maybe Brad Pitt should go back to his ex-wife remember it’s till death do as part.
I like Jennifer Aniston, but she is most definitely drunk. You can tell in the way she’s speaking and her body language.
