Does anyone else find it weird/funny/interesting that Justin Theroux dumped his girlfriend of 14 years, plans a move to Beverly Hills with his new, big-Hollywood girlfriend/jumpoff, eschews the hipster/indie cred he’s worked on for years, signs on to CAA, ALL on the same year that he’s turned 40 years old? Various sources have said that there are fears that Justin is in the midst of a mid-life crisis, and that Jennifer Aniston is the equivalent of a little red sports car. Oh, and Theroux is going bald. I’ve mentioned that before, but seriously – he’s going bald. That has to figure into it too.
So, if you’re a jumpoff/homewrecker and your man is going through a mid-life crisis, what do you get him for his birthday? (Hint: hair plugs?) NO! You buy him something pretty and leathery.
Jennifer Aniston has bestowed her new man with a very pricey and sought after present – a leather jacket once owned by movie star James Dean. According to U.S. reports the Horrible Bosses star splashed out $12,000 to get hold of the black vintage garment.
She got him the gift for his recent 40th birthday earlier this month, according to ShowBizSpy.com.
Fifties heartthrob Dean, who died aged 24 in a car accident, was most celebrated for his role in Rebel Without a Cause, in which her wore his iconic leather jacket throughout.
Aniston, 42, and Theroux have been dating since May – but things have taken a serious turn in the relationship.
The couple have enjoyed a Hawaii break together and accompanied one another to their respective events over recent months.
While $12,000 may be a lot to spend on someone you have only been dating for a few months, it’s a mere drop in the ocean for Jen, who is worth a reported $110 according to Forbes magazine.
ShowBizSpy also reports that Aniston has been trying her hand at writing poetry and recited her first one in front of his friends and family at a recent party.
A source said: ‘Their romance is like a real-life fairytale, even if it is cheesy beyond belief.’
[From The Mail]
$12,000 for James Dean’s jacket? That sounds under-priced, honestly. I would imagine that his jacket would go for much, much more. Here’s the thing, though: is this really a good gift for Justin? James Dean was an icon of badassery, a hero, lodestone and trailblazer for Method actors, and he was practically martyred to the cause of “living hard and dying young”. And he was also into dudes. What does it say to your 40-year-old, mid-life-crisis-y boyfriend to get him James Dean’s jacket? Hm… I would have gone with the Ferrari.

I finally see (what others have pointed out for a while) that he has indeed a massive head — when compared to his shoulders/the rest of his body.
She probably could have saved her money and given him a vintage Brad Pitt jacket for free (wouldn’t fit, though).
“$12,000 for James Dean’s jacket?” That, exactly, was my very first thought. Yeah, Justin sounds like he’s in a mid-life crisis, so maybe that’s shaky ground for JA to be on, imagine if he went back to his old girlfriend?
I just can’t with these totally biased Aniston posts. Seriously “Jump off/homewrecker?
It amazes me how when she is single, she is pining away for Pitt and she needs to “get a life and get over it”, then she finds a man, and now because he CHOSE to leave his girlfriend of 14 yrs for her, she is a homewrecker. That wasn’t the title you gave Jolie when Pitt left his WIFE of several years to go be with Jolie.
Mind you, I do not care that Pitt is with Jolie. They seem happy, but I don’t get this hatred for Aniston and her bf. You should be glad she has someone so she isn’t talking about Pitt anymore.
And so what if she paid $12k for a gift for him. She loves him. It’s her money, she earned it.
Such hate on this site for certain people it is weird!
I’m a big James Dean fan and I can tell you that 12 grand is a steal.
Good for her. I hope she is really happy with him and it all works out. Then we won’t have to hear anymore stories about Aniston or Brangelina to boot.
Let the woman live in peace. If she makes a mistake it isn’t like we ALL haven’t been there and done that.
Lose the beard.
Eh, I don’t get the hate for these two. Let them be happy.
Slow news day?
I don’t really get the hate either. And as for the bald, I know plenty of guys who are going bald, knew it was coming, and have accepted it. I guess I don’t see how a 40 year old loosing a bit of hair would be surprising or epic to him.
I hope she burned that old leather jacket of his, along with the hoodie and skinny black jeans.
I hope they have a wonderful time together and if she wants to spend that on him, so be it. Let her live her life.
Now, all of a sudden, James Dean was gay? I think we’re going a little overboard with the gay. I get the Travolta Rumors and maybe even Cruise, but Will and Jada, Zac Effron, Kristin Stewert etc. It’s getting a little old.
Not for nothin’ but he is sizzlin’ without the beard. I hope these two make it work. Agreed- I don’t get the hate for Jen.
Great gift, especially if James Dean was someone Justin admired and looked to for an example as far as work is concered, being in the same profesion and all.
She seems to really love him and wants to make him happy. Hope he feels the same about her.
Hope they are happy together for a long time.
@ bagladey
If he goes back to the former GF, Jen should ask for the jacket back.
Generally I just hope she’s having fun with him. Who cares if it means anything? Maybe she’s just skanky with money and that’s all there is to it.
bok bok bok *trapped….in….hen….house…..must…..escape…* GAAAAAAHHHHHHH
@MorticiansDoItDeader – I don’t get it either about all the gay rumours. Since when was it a requirement to act you must be gay. And why does everyone say tom cruise is gay but I have never heard actual stories or seen pics of him with men. I can’t stand tom so I don’t care about him either way.
and jen aniston reaks of desperation that relationship with jon meyer was so fake looking to me and bringing him as her date to that awards show in front of angelina an brad was akin to a desparate woman hiring a date to a reunion or a wedding knoiwing her ex will be there.
I read until “according to ShowBizSpy.com.” Don’t be so pathetic.
James Dean was gay?
How do you not know that James Dean was gay? It wasn’t THAT huge a secret after he died. Everyone spilled. I’m not a huge James Dean fan, but I knew that about him.
That figure is way off for that jacket. Wayyyy off. Something like this should get at least 6 figures..I call bs on this story..and the whole line of crap thats being fed about them…you can just say oh im gonna buy a james dean jacket for my bf..doesnt work like that..Im a huge JD fan..and the original jacket is hard to find ANY info on..when he got into his “death car” he handed it to a friend standing close, as he was hot..and thats the last known record of it…no telling where it ended up.
@TG, ITA. The Cruise gay rumors are pushed so hard, I was almost convinced out of sheer repetition.
@Goofpuff, who outted Dean?
@ Runs with Scissors:
You’re baaaack! *blinks cutely*
All right, let me release you…*unlocks cage*
When Brad Pitt was starting out he was always referred to as the next James Dean, just showing that any JA story can be brought back around to include Brad.
@Eve: bAHHHH, thank you! *pulls hen feathers out of hair* It’s so smothering in there and the koolaid they sell tastes like bullshit.
Thanks for letting me out, maybe you can round up a fox to two to let loose in there…..gotta run, sugar, catch you later!
“cheesey beyond belief” that’s being nice.
and it irritates me to no end that he’s wearing a Black Flag shirt. Ratt and then Black Flag?! Jebus, do you even listen to the music?! I hate him.
@brin… thanks for the lol 😉
AS if $12,000 is a lot of money for a gift from someone like her that has several millions in the bank.
Elizabeth Taylor talked about JD being sexually confused & afraid he was gay. Definite career killer in that era. He’d had male lovers. Liz & Dean became good friends while making “Giant”.
Doubt the jacket is real – 12k is very cheap. Also, would it fit Justin? Maybe he’s just supposed to look at it.
LOL!
” . . . Aniston has been trying her hand at writing poetry and recited her first one in front of his friends and family at a recent party.”
Luckily I was able to find the napkin she wrote it on:
~
Roses are red
Violets are blue
So there, Angelina Jolie
I’m a writer just like you.
I don’t get what she sees in him.
James Dean was gay or at the very least bisexual he slept with everybody plenty of people close to him have talked about it in interviews. It’s not really in debate at this point.
As for Aniston lavish gifts can bite you in the ass eventually and possibly make him feel emasculated like a kept man. I hope he gives her something nice but with a 4 million dollar net worth its going to be hard for Justin to keep up with her.
@Pyewacket Aniston is just getting a taste of her own medicine as has been mentioned Aniston has never stopped reminding people that she was left by you know who. And there are nasty fans out there who have never stopped calling Angelina a homewrecker. If she hadn’t been such a whiner all these years no one would be calling her out as a HYPOCRITE.
Haha Katherine. I just sprayed coffee all over my keyboard!
A perfect and appropriate gift for someone going through a midlife crisis.
For someone who is such a show off and snub, you would think we would be reading this story the other way around. That the new man that she is dating is stinking rich and he have given her a diamond necklace or some other expensive trinket, and instead of, house hunting together, they are commuting between each other’s mansions and Jen being such a show-off you know she would have her pr release pictures of her posing by this man’s pool side. Instead we have this travesty. I don’t know about JA or anybody else but I refuse to date a man who can’t keep me in the lifestyle I am accustomed too or have just as much money power as I do.
@Pyewacket – Same as you, I’m confused by the hate for certain people i.e. Jen Aniston and Princess Kate. I knows it’s celeBITCHY but it’s seems so OTT for these two especially. Just makes me like them more for some reason, can’t stand injustice.
Love the gift, shows Jen thinks outside the box and is very thoughtful as her friends have mentioned in the past.
I don’t know if this is a typo or if I’m just a n00b at reading stuff about monetary figures, but this made me lol:
“…Jen, who is worth a reported $110 according to Forbes magazine.”
Totally read that as, “Jennifer Aniston is worth one hundred and ten dollars.”
@anonymous (11.12am) – It’s 2011, I don’t think women can expect an equal society and at the same time expect a man to support them.
Jen a show off??? In what way? She dresses in a simple and understated way, same with vacations. It’s not as if she’s flying here there and everywhere on private jets, renting mansion after mansion and hiring a entourage of staff.
Seriously, this woman needs to just GO AWAY!!!! She is so ugly and untalented! She’s just a media whore!
I get why these people hate on Jen and her new man. They always said that Jen was un lucky in love, vapid, un interesting etc. Now suddenly Brangelina cannot make it to the covers of tabloids, its Jen, Jen, Jen. She has a new man, genuinely seems happy. In short, she has proved them all wrong. Their worst fear? Jen married and having kids, now what will they say? I wish her well, she seems like a nice person.
Hate, or it is the honest to goodness truth! At the least many of us is not into idol worship that we can’t see the forest for the trees. How is it, that none of the a-list stars she has dated that have money, fame and dynamic acting or singing careers stayed with JA. But look who have hung on to her, a person who nobody have heard of until he dates the most famous rich devorcee. Lady take your blinders off!
@Ella I love it when they aren’t on the covers because most of the stories about them in the tabs are full-o-shizzzz. Whereas Jen’s stories usually come straight from Huvi.
She could do so much better than him, he is not good looking.
dang! she’s worth 110 mil??
she’s very pretty but she is not a true good actress in the least bit..
nevermind.
I went to Perez Hilton site yesterday for the first time in eons. He has a photo collection up of the most photogenic people on the planet. Jen Aniston is #2
and Angelina is #7 in the top ten. Very strange.
That’s a pretty good price for that item, I bet, if the story is true. Did you guys see what Debbie Reynolds collection was selling for? Mega-bucks.
This guy goes FROM bearded, Black-Flag t-shirt, wanna-be hipster TO orange fake-tan, gold-Rolex wearing business man in a space of 1 month? Hello–mid-life douche-crises! Someone wants more fame bad. With all that cheating and lying stuff…they both deserve each other…
James was gay according to many reliable sources (Liz being one of them) and used to have beards, such as Italian young actress Pier Angeli.
God, you gotta love the tabloid covers. They’ve got her knocked up and showing already. US Mag is talking about her “morning sickness” like they already saw the stick turn blue. My favorite this week is Life & Style in big letters: “IT’S TWINS!” Then you open the mag and it says she plans on getting pregnant and hopes it’s twins. I’m surprised she’s not planning for triplets. If she wants to pull an Angie, why not go one better?
Far as I can recall, Dean was bisexual. Pier Angeli was one of his great crushes and so was Montgomery Clift. I don’t know if he and Rock Hudson got it on while filming “Giant”.
Compared to the skinny jeans,famewhoring is so much a better look for this man.I wonder what he has to say about Tom Hanks now!!
Huge James Dean fan Morrissey should have jumped on that jacket. Oops.
A black $12,000 James Dean leather jacket is NOT the red iconic one he wore in Rebel Without a Cause. The article either misinformed or misleading …
OMG his head is MASSIVE!!!
@Ramona Q: The article didn’t say it was the iconic jacket associated with him. But you’re right, the red leather jacket in Rebel was the one he was known for.
Angie-jo was a homewrecker. The proof is in the pudding.
I love that people think it’s an insult to say justin chose jen because of a midlife crisis. Don’t men usually trade their woman in for a new and hotter version when it’s a midlife crisis?? We all know jen has a better body than most 20 something actresses.
So where is this pudding hyena? Did Jen send a case to Heidi when Justin moved into her apt ????
James Dean was gay and or bisexual… am I the only one here who read Brando’s Autobiography??? Anyways, if Justin admires Dean, that’s the perfect thoughtful gift.
Also, I’d like to know why Jen is the homewrecker/jumpoff because at 40 he’s going through midlife crisis, yet Jolie, who almost certainly started her relationship with Pitt when he was married and also 40, doesn’t get the same treatment. Worse yet is that Aniston is at least close in age to Theroux, while Jolie is 12 years younger than Pitt is, classic mid-life crisis behavior… Going for the hot younger thing who believes all your stories because she doesn’t know better like your wife does.
Dude looks like Paul Mitchell with all the facial hair, and I half expect to see him shilling hair-care products.
Canuck, I read Brando’s autobiography also, and can’t recommend it enough. A fascinating read. It’s been fairly common knowledge amongst the older generation for years now that Dean was gay. There are some weird stories … Google for “James Dean” and “human ashtray.” In this day and age, though, or ANY day and age, whether Dean was gay or straight ought not to make one bit of difference as to his acting. The guy had, as Kenneth Anger so aptly put it, durable charisma — which has lasted through all the years since Dean’s death.
Sorry, but i didnt know where else to post this:
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-2029387/Brad-Pitt-sports-grungy-look-promote-obsession-project-Moneyball.html
Daaaammmnnnn, Brad looks HOT in those pics. He’s sooo goodlooking.
Why is it Understandable to hate some people based on Whatever but then there is the “I don’t get the hate for ______)
Just because you don’t like someone doesn’t mean that the nasty rumors and stories about them are true.
@Ella do you really think the JP fans want them on the cover of tabloids.. Like that is some kind of achievement.
I don’t like her, but I don’t believe every silly story is true. I never ever believed she and Brad were or are in contact. Never believed Brad ever looked back. and I think Jen has moved on. So I hope she and Justin make it work. and STAY TOGETHER.. but it doesn’t stop her fans from saying nasty things about others.. Funny how that is..
Huh. I had no idea James Dean was gay or bisexual either.
No it doesn’t stop people from taking their blinders off and writing the truth she is dating a smuck like Judge Judy calls these kind of guys A SMUCK, TLC WOULD CALL THEM A SCRUB. A man who really don’t have a pot to pi** in. There is nothing wrong with that some women like bad boys, to each his own.
Thanks all for the info. re: Dean’s sexuality. My dad is a huge Dean fan and I’m going to recommend Brando’s autobiography. Thanks @sluggo @Canuck.
@sluggo, ITA that ones sexuality has nothing to do with their acting ability. That’s what I was getting at in my first post. It gets old hearing “insert name here is gay,” when there is no evidence to back it up.
uh, if that jacket was so ‘sought after’ $12,000 is chump change to the hollywood wannabes that would want it. somebody got cheated…
hell, i bet you could ask any of the hw under30 crowd and they wouldn’t have a clue who james dean was.
I hate to further the endless JP vs JA smack down as I have “no dog in this hunt”
but lets be fair, Theroux could hardly be labeled a “schmuck” ( it’s yiddish for Christ sake so the “sch” is required)
He’s co-written 2 well received monster hit movies…hardly “scrub” material…..
I’m so sick of the homewrecker namecalling crap with Jennifer, Angelina, Lee Ann and everyone else. It’s life. It happens. Grow up and deal with it. No one can make another person leave you!!!! If you are going to be mad at anyone, be mad at the person who left you and look at yourself to see what part you played in the demise of the relationship. I’ve been there too and had men leave me for other women. If you are a confident woman, they are not going to leave. Other than that rant, I think I would have opted to give him hair plugs.
LMAO @ your write up Kaiser, excellent stuff 😆 😀 .
And how fug are these 2. Yikes.
@sluggo: Cosign. Dean was an incredibly gifted genius. His sexual orientation had nothing to do with anything.
Sweet Jesus help us all. US Mag says Jenny-poo has been sleeping till 10 a.m. so obviously she must be suffering from morning sickness. Did it ever occur to their nitwit editors that maybe she sleeps till 10 a.m. because she stays up late every night?
🙄
Yes Elizabeth Taylor both James dean and Montgomery Clift several years ago.
Elizabeth Taylor outed both of them
Katherine, YOU ARE A POET. Too Funny.
People magazine cover this week, help me out, but is that not the Jolie-Pitts?
New York Magazine is that not Brad on the cover looking quite nice?
Perhaps Ella sees something we don’t see or better still does not see things we ALL see. Whichever it is, I don’t want any part of that.
Well!!! Who peed in Anonymous’ soup? Hehe…SMH.
@christian girl, right on! Brad is on so many covers this week I have lost count. Aniston fans seem to have their knickers in a twist now that Jen is now a bonafide homewrecker.
Wow, didn’t know that about JD but then, he was before my time. I am interested in the Spider, though.
@ Katherine: Thanks for the great LOL!! 🙂
@ Anonymous
If you can discuss about Jolie 7 years old homewrecking and past sins at less than 26 while schooling anyone about not being obsessesd about a hasbeen STUPID actress in a STUPID site as you put it, Kaiser and others can discuss about stupider actress and even more hasbeen Aniston withn her even more recent homewrecking and past sins like getting peed on at 40, smoking pot and drinking margarittas, getting herself an entourage of abusers and nasty folks like Handler, Joe Francis and Terry Richardson and being the dumber woman in the world who could take back, at 40, John ‘napalm’ Mayer. She makes Jessica Simpson and Kim Kardashian looking like Einstein as both were in their twenties where they got into that urine stuff ONCE not twice !
If you can bring the nasty and unrelated past of Jolie while telling anyone to back of, you should be able to take all the nasty and unrelated past of Aniston in the same way.
Anon, he’s worth several million dollars and has written or co-written a couple of huge hit movies. Just because he’s not well known in front of the camera doesn’t mean he’s not well known behind it.
In all fairness to Perez Hilton he was just posting some online poll of 1500 people. I thought it was some kind of joke since she had not polled higher than Angelina but also sophia Loren, Marilyn Monroe, Audrey Hepburn. I bet 1000 were her fans. Come on even Laney gossip who met both JA and Angie in person describe JA as taupe, looks her age in person( not 10 years younger) great body, pretty blue eyes but doesn’t have that Hollywood star quality. She decribes Angie in person as stunning, drop dead gorgeous face, sucks the air out of room with star quality,beautiful skin, gorgeous lips, however she has skinny legs. She’s not the only one that decribes Angie’s beauty that way every journalists that interviews her says the same thing that they can’t believe she’s more gorgeous in person than her photos.
First time here but it doesn’t take long to see what’s been going on here.
Jolie pitt fan’s seem like really sick ugly people i can’t believe this is still going on i remember when i heard about this it’s been years and there still bitter i think that shows something about themselves in there personal life.
Just really ugly mean spirited people in side and i’m thinking physically outside as well.. I’m not a aniston fan but i’m not a Jolie fan either could careless.
With that said i think it would be in jp fan’s best interest to see that J.A lost interest in brad so long ago already & has moved on but apparently not, so sad. But ugly hateful people will be ugly hateful people theres no excuse for it..
They seem really happy and sweet together i remember reading on some other site jen really thinks he’s the one and is already thinking of kids in there future. I for one hope this does happen it would be so great to see her start a family and to see her have kids would be amazing. Just like Jolie pitts kids.
And justin is so hot i recently notice him and especially when he shaves really handsome man.. In the end they would make such good looking kids, here’s hoping there love stay’s true.
Everyone who talks negative of jen are just a bunch of old bitter jolie/pitt obsessed fans who are at war with anything jen & can’t get over old news. Know that your doing more harm to yourself than to anyone else holding on to that much hate can’t be good for you.
I’m sorry that jolie & pitt got a bad rep because of there ((own actions)) from the past and all you can do is blame jen for it. But GET OVER IT! No one cares anymore get some lives. They’ve moved on, so should you. i wish you well..
WOW seeker-have you heard the one about the pot and the kettle? You should go check out the beautiful people on some of the Aniston fan sites (some of whom post here) who amoung other things have wished sickness on the young Jolie-Pitt twins and then we can talk about who is ugly. There are people on BOTH sides who go to far.
@seeker
I for one would love to see her get married and have a baby so she won’t bring brad up in her interviews. But when others say she’s move on and she brings up brad in her interviews, mentions that she still holds on/listens to his voicemail messages, has her friend calling Angie and her kids nasty names, feels a need respond to Angie’s interview one year later, can recite the names of their children… has she really moved on? can you understand the bitterness from JP fans… BTW they never talk about her… Brad never talks about any of his x’s.He shut that down a few years ago.
