Today seems to be Vintage Aniston Dramz Day on Celebitchy. I don’t know why, although I suspect it’s because the gossip mags are tired of trying to cause some kind of scandal with Justin Theroux, although I think all of these stories about how Jennifer Aniston finds it difficult to move past her relationships with Brad Pitt and John Mayer should serve as some kind of High Alert for Justin. Anyway, Radar claims that Jennifer has finally (!!) made her peace with John Mayer’s relationship with Boobs McCakeFoundation.
As things continue to heat up between John Mayer and Katy Perry, the crooner’s ex, Jennifer Aniston, had made peace with their intense love affair RadarOnline.com is exclusively reporting.
“Jen and John have stayed friends. They’re not super close at the moment but Jen has said she likes the John-Katy pairing a lot and wants to see them start a family together,” a source close to the situation told Radar. “Of course Jen is in such a good place with her own relationship that she can get away with being magnanimous.”
Aniston, 44, has been dating Justin Theroux since 2011 and the pair announced their engagement on Aug. 12, 2012.
“But when she was single, she didn’t want to hear a thing about John’s hook-ups, and to his credit, he kept his personal life pretty low key for the two years after they broke up,” the source added.
Mayer and Aniston began dating in Feb. 2008 and after a brief breakup got back together, only to break up for good in March 2009. The source concluded, “No matter what happens, there’s a lot of mutual respect between John and Jen that doesn’t exist between Jen and Brad Pitt at the moment.”
Part of me just loathes this whole tabloid construct that a single woman is terribly pathetic and can’t even hear about her former partner’s new relationship. But another part of me sort of believes that Aniston is like that. Although… it’s not like Mayer kept quiet post-Aniston. Immediately following the Aniston thing, he began hooking up with Taylor Swift, which led to him dumping Swifty, which led to Swifty calling him out in several songs. Then the Katy Perry thing happened a bit later. And it doesn’t even matter, does it? Mayer has that trapped look that he used to have with Aniston. Whatever is going on with Mayer and Perry, it’s not going to lead to marriage and babies.

This is completely off topic – but just caught that movie “We’re the Millers” on a plane. She RUINED the movie. There is absolutely nothing sexy about this woman. Even her drama – John Mayer, still pining for Brad Pitt, etc is completely boring.
I’m telling you, if she had played the stripper goofy and slapstick instead of trying (and failing) to be sexy, she would have stolen the film. Comedic actress? This woman has no clue what’s funny. And to answer a previous question, she’s being covered because her PR team regularly greases palms to keep her name in the tabloids. Doesn’t matter if it’s truth, fiction, or utter BS, as long as her name is out there.
Brangelina are doing some of award season for 12YAS so of course Jen Aniston’s pr is trying to upstage. It’s guaranteed. every time.
Agree with it all. Her PR always turns out some old story when others are getting attention. Same schtick with mad libs style interchangable names.
And yea. Slapstick would have been great, but if Aniston isn’t trying to show off her admittedly great body she won’t take a role it seems.
@Florc
It wasn’t even HER body–they had a 22 year old stunt double. Which I don’t understand, because she’s playing a washed up stripper, who can’t get a better job.
Well, Aniston’s “sexy” striptease was a really smart part of the movie, I do agree with Epiphany that goofy stripper would’ve been funnier.
Anyway, I do think she is a good comedic actress and I enjoyed the movie. I don’t think that she ruined it at all. I didn’t particularly care for Emma Roberts’ role but, then again, I guess she was passable.
I do think the movie raked in the cash and I do think that they will continue with the original cast for a rumored second Millers. At least, ya’ll can give it a pass next time (bright side) 🙂
I thought I was going to hate that movie, but laughed all the way through it. She was alright…playing the same role she always plays.
Agreed, the rest of the cast picked up where she failed. She needs to accept that she isn’t big enough to not take on Lifetime movie roles.
Side note: Did anyone catch Christina Ricci in the Lizzie Borden movie yesterday? I thought it wasn’t that bad but I’ll always love Wednesday!
I saw it. Wasn’t bad at all. I liked her in “Sleepy Hollow”.
I saw part of Sleepy Hollow when I was a kid (my older sis was watching it and I snuck up behind the couch)—that movie freaked me out. All I remember is at the end, when the headless horseman gets his head back, grabs the blond woman and kisses her so hard that there’s blood on her mouth……creeped me out so bad.
That is my favorite movie of both Ricci and Depp. I wanted them together hahaha I’m also partial to the film over the new FOX show as well. Watching it now Burton really was ahead of his time as far as the graphics for that movie goes. Came out in 1999 and the effects were very realistic to me.
I thought the Lizzie Borden movie was terrible. I always expect history to be adjusted in these movies, but I also expect the little written follow up to be correct. It said that Lizzie and Emma, who continued to live together for 13 years, never spoke to each other again after the court case. That irritated me. Also, it was Mr. Borden who butchered the pigeons because he thought they were attracting criminals – which is so odd.
Every single thing about JA is boring. Sometimes I click these stories just to see if finally there will be something – anything- interesting about her. I’ll give her points for consistency I guess. Snore.
Trillion,
THANK YOU! I thought I was the only one utterly bored with this woman’s love life. I need the Ghost of Relationships past to perform an exorcism or some shyt because Im tired of hearing about her relationship with her old pieces.
Jumping in late here…
I cannot stand Jennifer Aniston as an actress. Something about her acting grates my nerves and I find her so one note. It has nothing to do with the world of gossip, I just cannot stand her as an actress!
Omg why is she bring covered??? What relevance besides not moving on from dudes does she have???
On another note: I enjoy living proof root lifting cream
I have thought about trying the root lifting cream. Does it just help avoid that “too flat” look? And, if I may, do you blow dry your hair often? (Please don’t answer if it you’d rather not :))
Lastly, where did you get it?
Hi!!! Yay beauty talk my fave. I got it as a sample or 100 pt beauty reward from sephora. Yes it gives your roots volume and avoids that too flat look (depends how much you use and how successful you are?) I got a lot of compliments last night. I don’t blow dry my hair often, only if I’m going out. I would suggest going to sephora and asking for a sample or buying travel size. A little goes a long way. But my hair looks thicker, fuller and more bouncy since last night. (For the record I only went out for dinner- no craziness)
I use their 3in1 cream, which is a finishing product, and I love it. It makes my hair soft and shiny but still gives it body and lift.
Thanks Victoria I appreciate the quick response and the sample suggestion. I hate to invest so much in a beauty product to get it home and realize it doesn’t nothing for me!
I don’t have a Sephora close by but I’m gonna try to get a sample internet-wise. If not, I must trek soon to my closet big city well, larger) anyway .
@GoodNames,
Thanks to you too ’cause it sounds like I need both these products and if I’m tramping to the city to buy one, I might as well stock up!
On the way to Sephora make sure to stop off at the drug store for some Aveeno and Smart Water.
You could also get it from Ulta stores.
Thanks for the suggestion, I’ll have to try that. I’ve been using the shampoo and conditioner and my hair feels amazing, but I just wish it wasn’t so expensive. A little goes a long way with that stuff too though.
Is Proof the name of the brand???
@Tulip: Must be a flower thang… My hair wilts and often too much product makes it worse. So I have a whole closet of crap that doesn’t work on my hair.
@Victoria: Thanks for the suggestions.
@GoodNames: Hello Dahling. 😉
Living Proof
@Ladyslippers,
Yes, a flower thing ’cause we need lightness, a subtle magic, we are delicate creatures…..with a frickin shed filled with crap that doesn’t work!!!
Sometimes I start to feel sorry for her in regards to how she’s always described as some poor, lonely, unlucky little victim in the tabloids. Then I quickly snap out of it because I remember that she was the one to paint herself in that light with her pity-me antics and uncool interviews. So over this woman. Perhaps if she’d of handled herself a la Emma Thompson I’d not be so damned tired of her.
Thanks So much for your comment. You nailed it!
Me too – I was neutral when the whole triangle happened but in the following years Jennifer herself is the one who put me off her completely.
@Jac, who wrote: “Perhaps if she’d of handled herself a la Emma Thompson I’d not be so damned tired of her.”
Or Sandra Bullock, who really ‘was’ humiliated by a public breakup.
Jennifer Aniston has so successfully re-created herself in ‘victim’ mode, her female fans blammed ‘Heidi Bivens’ for Justin and Jen’s cheating and gave Jen a complete pass.
Emma, Please explain how being dumped by one of the most famous actors in the worlds for one of the most famous/beautiful actresses in the world and having the press cover the story globally ad nauseaum is less humiliating than Sandra Bullock being cheated on by that motorcycle guy, whose name I can’t bother to remember because no one cares about him. I can’t wait to hear this logic.
Well, probably because Pitt left Aniston for someone regarded as the sexiest woman in the world, whereas Jesse James cheated on Bullock with about 20 women who kinda give you the heebie jeebies.
I don’t personally think one is worse than the other. Being cheated on sucks, whether it is in front of the whole word or not.
Yup- Aniston herself could put the whole narrative to rest by giving one interview in which she emphatically states she’s over it all, she’s happy for Brad/Angelina and John/Katy, and handle it the way that Emma Thompson handled it.
The Brangelina-Aniston triangle of doom is a much bigger current pop culture story than the Emma-Helena-Kenneth thing was, but she could put an end to the “poor single childless Jen” stories if she wanted to. The fact is, she doesn’t want this perspective to stop.
This.^^^^^^ Jac.
And yes, Emma Thompson didnt go on a decade long pity party. She drank some wine, lifted her boobs, got back to work, married a hot younger piece and started a family and continued to be fabulous.
Jennifer, THATS how you handle a break up!
This story was up for 30 minutes then disappeared on Friday. I had the best comment and now I’ve forgotten it 🙁
Yeah, deja vu all over again. I guess Celebitchy wanted to pace themselves.
This fragile, pathetic Jen stuff probably has some truth to it, but nobody could be THAT pitiful and self-absorbed. Could they?
I find it incredulous she’s okay with some of the stuff put out about her. Saving voice messages, owning stored sperm in the divorce, making her peace with Katy and John 2 years later? These stories make it seem as if she has a somewhat tenuous grasp on reality.
That voicemail story was creepy–especially since it had been five years since they separated. Why even bring it up, I don’t know, but to get specific was worse.
Instead of saying ‘I keep voicemail messages of all of my ex partner’s’, she said, ‘of my HUSBAND…..’–What? I mean, I had just started reading gossip at that time (I remember this because it was one of the first times I’d actually commented), but that quote struck me as so weird.
And I don’t get how her fans can trash Brad for saying that he was making his marriage into something that it wasn’t, that he was trying to pretend it was something that it wasn’t–but Jennifer can say stuff like that voicemail message thing, talk about how she rose from the ashes 6-7 years ago, talk about (in 2010ish) how she’s been spring cleaning for the past five years, and so on–and that’s all fine.
I was actually going to comment on that, as I KNEW I saw it somewhere on Celebitchy two days ago, I even searched for it on here under the tag Jennifer Aniston but it had disappeared. So I convinced myself I must have seen it in the Featured Links section below some other story, but I could have sworn it was on Celebitchy itself. Now I know I wasn’t going crazy, lol.
Yeah, I thought I was going crazy too–I saw it, and then it was gone.
I’m pretty tired of this crap too, especially the Aniston, on high, granting absolution and acceptance to an ex and his new relationship. Sheesh… is every man who has ever pressed up against her going to get their Aniston-approved Juneteenth too?
+1. I always find the position that only what SHE has to say about everything is “official”. Like her partners shouldn’t dare to have feelings or perspectives of their own.
+1 to you both. Shes allowed to talk about her ex/es in every interview, but woe betide any of the ex/es who say one thing. the hypocrisy and double standards at play, again.
John and Jen dated. Then they stopped. Is he feeling magnanimous about her engagement to Justin?
Stories like this are just pathetic and unnecessary. I guess there is nothing else juicy or worthy of talking about in Jennifer Aniston’s world right now???
Well her fans decided to post on an Angelina thread on JustJared that Aniston was at a table read with Deniro.Its funny no industry site mentions them working together.
But if it’s true next stop for Aniston ,Oscar nominee 2015
Oh for the Jen fans who wonder how I hear about this stuff her fans post stuff about her on Brad and Angie’s threads.For some reason they ignore her threads.The other day they posted a fake marriage licence for JustJen on Brad’s thread.Someone on CB awhile back asked me how I knew what some of her fans discuss.I know because they park themselves on Brad and Angie threads.
As for Radar story it sounds like BS as usual next they will be claiming she wants to meet Vince Vaughns family for”closure”
Yes I saw it on JJ too. They were braging how Jen was going to work with Deniro and Brad and AJ are working with nobodies… I couldn’t help but laugh and yes they always hijjack the Brad and Angie thread over there I wonder why.
I haven’t been to Just JENNIFER (or Just Looniston as I used to call it) in about 3 years because it is so infested with these Aniston fans, its like a second Female First (or it was 3 years ago when I left, don’t know what its like now – sounds like its the same). You could fill up a therapist’s working life from start to retirement just on that FF/JJ alone. So, I take i all these years on and they are STILL as deeply obsessed with Brad ‘hurting’ their pwoor widdle Jennie pie as they were back then? Even though its nine years on and she is apparently engaged to Justin? Will they ever just leave Brad and Angelina the fuq alone?!??
I saw that too, and I don’t read JJ. I think the article was on the Daily Mail.
Look at the bright side, though, there is now mention of a break-up with Justin based on…whatever the tabs make up or, conversely, a “planned wedding” story which I don’t believe they would know about anyway. Also, there is no mention of a “baby bump” or possible adoption/suragate (sp?) child on the way.
Tabs live and die by the “big” stories (marriages, babies, arrests, break-ups, feuds, controversies etc.), I don’t think Aniston’s life is particularly “newsworthy” by those standards right now.
I’m just thankful that, at least, they are trying on a different tactic (re: Mayer/Perry). It’s better than the usual drivel.
Also, tabs don’t carry about any actor going on about their craft or career expectation/goals, they need the abovementioned “big” stories regardless of who they are covering, imo.
But they must make money. Look at how many comments there always are under Aniston articles, here, regardless of their inanity.
I wondered where this story went after being posted on Friday. Maybe it was JA overload to have two stories on one day? My comment was / is — Are we talking about a grown, 40-something woman here or a teenager? I really questioned her judgment when she went back to JM after he publicly dissed her.
How long will these desperate sounding, looking back stories surface about her?
Just another made up, BS story. UGH!!
If all these stories about her are true I think it’s more a diva thing than a pity party. Like she can’t stand the idea that these men would choose someone besides her. As low key as she tries to front she comes off as someone who needs to be the center of attention. It’s probably better for her to be with a guy that’s less successful so that she can be the focal point. I’d be curious to see what’ll happen if his series does well.
@Luca26, who wrote: “If all these stories about her are true I think it’s more a diva thing than a pity party. Like she can’t stand the idea that these men would choose someone besides her.”
And, this, I think is probably the closest to the truth with Jennifer Aniston.
I remember when Jen and Brad were married. Everything seemed fine for the first two years of their marriage, but then something seemed to go terribly wrong. Brad wanted to get involved in humanitarian efforts (yes, Brad had these leanings even before getting together with Angie), and Jen seemed to have no such interest at all. But tabolids really started questioning the state of the Aniston-Pitt marriage when Brad left in 2003 to film “Troy” on Malta and Jennifer Ansiton only visited him ‘once’ with the excuse that she was “just not comfortable flying.”
Okay, I was called away in mid-edit and got timed out. So I’m going to post this and hope they two posts make sense together. Sorry! 🙂
I remember how they got together. I’ve read that ‘both’ of their Managers arranged a ‘blind date’ between them. I’ve always questioned this, because we know that Jen and Tate Donovan broke up on May 4, 1998, but the ‘only’ date you get for Jen and Brad’s blind date is ‘spring 1998.’ That and the fact of Jen glibly confessing on Jay Leno that she and Brad had sex on their blind date. I’ve always thought that Jen had a campaign to get Brad. I ‘do’ remember reading that Jen Googled Brad prior to their date to see what his interests are.
I don’t think Jen was devastated because she deperately loved her husband and her marriage ended. I think she was mad because Brad dared to leave her. She has always struck me as a petty, Junior High School minded woman.
This story is ridiculous and why is Brad Pitt even mentioned in the last line, I don’t get it. Anyways I never understood John Mayer’s pull with these women. Especially after his public announcement on the side of a curb w/ paps about their a breakup. That was truly embarrassing and I would have been horrified. He proved how classless he was plus over-sharing in magazines about his other relationships. I just never understood why Jennifer Aniston took him back again like he was some kind of freaking prize. That always boggles my mind. So no thanks that would be the last thing I would want out is a story about mutual respect concerning him no thanks after the stunts he pulled.
I never understood her 2nd hookup with Mayer either.
Still, if this article is true, maybe Aniston and Mayer just realized while there was a mutual connection it veered more toward friends then romantic partners. Also, I believe that Aniston reportedly is still friendly with Vince Vaughn as well and they shared a meal after he wed. Maybe, like some of us, after the sting of the break-ups are over, she/he/we can appreciate an ex as a person/friend in a way that wasn’t particularly possible during a failing romantic relationship. I don’t think that that is a bad thing.
Also, agree leave Pitt out of it (although I have the creeping suspicion some posters won’t), like the tabloids they concentrate on a 10 years gone relationship. He’s so far in her past that it really doesn’t matter anymore.
Vaughn dumped her after her engagement ring baiting. Never heard of him being on her friends list. That break-up was clean.
She hooked up with Mayer because they both needed a date for the Oscars.
Hey O.G.,
I’ve never heard Vaughn or Aniston comment about “ring baiting”. Also, never heard either say how/why their relationship ended. I suspect it was a very typical rebound relationship that, as they often do, just petered out. If you know of interviews where either has discussed their break-up, I’d be interested to know where so I can give ’em a read 🙂
Agree that the second Mayer hook-up probably was influenced by the upcoming Oscars. IMO, poor decision making on her part but I thought she looked incredible in that dress!
Tulip Garden, one time when she was with Vaughn she walked through the front door of the pap-laden haunt The Ivy at peak lunch hour – grinning like crazy, no bra, nipples iced and at attention, sporting a diamond engagement-type ring on her ring finger – and straight through the back door. Mission accomplished; the photos were all through the tabloids. Word was Vaughn didn’t appreciate the stunt since he was hounded about their ‘engagement’. And he dumped her soon after.
@Sal,
I appreciate your input truly. I’m sure you can understand that your post is all “i read’, “according to”, and other such language that suggests you are possibly quoting a tabloid and/or rumor. More than that, you seem to give it the credence of fact with no correlating legitimate outlet reporting any of this little less evidence that either of the parties involved made reference to any of that happening or comments that they made on record as to why they broke up.
In short, I believe you are stating a viewpoint. It just doesn’t happen to agree with mine.
I understand why you’d want to think that, but the photos were in the magazines, I saw the photos with my own 2 eyes, hence my description of them. I wasn’t ‘told’ or ‘heard’ about them, I actually saw the photos and she was as described and she and Vaughn split straight after the photos hit.
Tulip, there’s a story that CB covered (I’ll link it) when Vince and Jennifer were together, about Jennifer having a fake engagement ring. I guess I’m not sure how truthful it is–because the story was in a tabloid, BUT the story was quoted/sourced by a journalist who was at the premiere and talked with both of them. It wasn’t ‘alleged’ that this happened.
Anyway, here’s the story–a British journalist named Leigh Purves asked VV if he and Jennifer were planning on getting married, and VV said ‘talk to our people’—this was after she talked with Jennifer, and asked her about the ring that she had on her wedding ring finger. Purves told VV that had ‘looked very coy’ when she asked her about it and said it was a canary diamond, etc, and said ‘isn’t it nice’? That’s all that was quoted by the journalist.
Of course ‘witnesses’ and ‘sources’ say that VV was pissed, pulled her aside, said some stuff in angry whispers, and that Jennifer took the ring off and put it on her other hand–I don’t know how true that is, but I wouldn’t doubt that’s what happened, since the journalist said that VV looked a little mad after she asked him about them getting married, etc.

Sal,
I never disbelieved that you saw some photos of Jennifer and/or Jennifer and Vince Vaughan in a restaurant with some sort of ring. I do believe the reset is “photo assumption” or tabloid gossip.
Conjecture on your part is normal and what many of us here do but identifying as fact is incorrect. Simply adding imo or I believe would help give enormous credence to the posts wherein you have no actual legit outlet or legit interview to credit.
I’ve got to get to work now. Enjoy your day. 🙂
@Tulip Garden …
I find it fascinating that you (with your 1:59 pm post) would completely ignore the @Virgilia Coriolanus post (at 1:42 pm) with the link supporting @Sal’s comments.
Or you pretending that you didn’t see @Virgilia Coriolanus’s 1:42 pm post?
He basically said that Aniston was too old and boring for him. He stood on a sidewalk and announced their first break-up to the papz. He made a point to say that HE did the dumping. She might respect him, but it isn’t mutual.
No doubt Mayer didn’t show respect then (during his sidewalk tete-a-tete), and has continued not to conduct himself with any sort of dignity. I include his comments about Jessica Simpson when I conclude that the man truly has no filter (that he wants to use anyway). I wonder if he is “that guy” that only respects women before and then after a relationship? What does it say about him if HE can’t respect a woman that would sleep with him? Ha 🙂
So we agree that he absolutely did not show respect. He obviously has no respect for her. Which begs the question, why would she respect him? Why would her *people* say they have ‘mutual respect’ when it’s quite obvious he doesn’t respect her and she shouldn’t respect him?
@Sullivan,
I’m not Aniston or “her people” so I can only conjecture as why she would respect him if, in fact, she does. One possibility is that Aniston is simply more comfortable coming to positive terms on her past relationship with Mayer. While he did behave abominably, consequently he did state that he shouldn’t have spoken that way in his infamous Rolling Stone interview and that he had “never really gotten over the split”. While I believe this was a save his butt move to make him look less like a douche, it is nonetheless a public acknowledgement of his indiscretion. Also, perhaps, he apologized to her personally (conjecture)? Sometimes a simple “I’m sorry” does go a long way.
In the end, I think it is always best (if possible) to come to positive terms with an ex. While they may still not be your favorite person, I just think that it is better to make amends. Perhaps, as noted in the article, they did make personal amends and just felt maybe it best to shut up about it publically?
As a said earlier, I have no inside knowledge one way or the other. Some may interpret that Aniston is simply pathetic. I guess it depends on your viewpoint.
TG, my question was rhetorical, but I appreciate that you put so much thought into your answer. I am without snark when I say that Aniston’s p.r. team should hire you. Your version of Aniston sounds much better than their version.
Aaaargh, I didn’t realize it was rhetorical (blushes). Thanks for compliment about possible p.r. abilities although, tbh, I just call it like I see it.
Now however I can imagine that I am at a huge office in L.A. surrounding by assistants bringing much needed order to the public personas of some celebrities with all of the perks and mon-ay that that would bring. After I finish my imagining I will be doing business paperwork and cleaning toilets but I can still fantasize while I do it! 🙂
NO way sullivan! You think there might be PR people who manage negative comments on tabloid sites and TG would be good at that? 😉
She must be giving Celilia/spinner the weekend off.
I can understand why Katy Perry thinks Mayer’s a prize. She’s that type. (Constricted upbringing, not exactly bright, needs to latch onto a man.) Any other woman, though? I have no idea. He’s not even enough of a “bad boy” to be interesting in that way. He’s just a typical boring skeeze.
I am just waiting for the “Jen made her peace with Vince Vaughn and Kyla Weber” story, Paul Sculfor is so hasbeen so he won’t be mentioned.
On another note, any woman who dates John ‘Golden Showers’ Mayer must be desperate…the one who had to go in twice is worst than anyone else…..
Agreed. She should have more issues with how Vince moved on than John Mayer. She lost out big when she dumped Vince. He has a nice wife and a son and a daughter. My kids were watching the original Anchorman last week and I forgot Vince was in that. He was cute back in 2004. Still cute – in a different way.
Agreed. I always liked Vince.
I’m sure Perry and Mayer are over the moon thrilled that his ex has made peace with them. I’m sure they were losing sleep over it, especially Mayer – didn’t he describe her essentially as old and boring?
I’m not sure why Aniston’s PR people feel the need to keep her in the news in this way, much like the MAMS screening story. It makes her look ridiculous. And more pathetic than usual, which one would think is hard to do, yet they never do seem to reach bottom.
Exactly
These are all tabloid stories. Most tabloid stories are ridiculous regardless of who they are about. Jennifer may not be the top of the heap as far as actresses go (understatement) but she is a successful actress nonetheless (even if some don’t care for her brand of comedy), the tabloids know that stories about her will get bought/discussed. I don’t know why Aniston/Huvane continues to get blamed for planting them. Like Aniston or not, she sells tabloids and garners hits.
I’m just glad the so-called “uncool triangle” stuff seems to be dying out. Those stories which gathered three people that have not connected in any way in ten years have become eye-rollingly stupid regardless of whom you like/dislike. On the not so bright side, the tabs will probably continue to print Brangelina break-up stories (puh-lease) and Aniston break-up stories until the public rejects reading/clicking on those as well.
Huvane isn’t getting blamed – you make it sound like a fault or a crime. He is a publicist; he’s doing what publicists do when their client says,” make me famous, and keep me there!” Of course he and his team plant these stories about Aniston; it doesn’t matter whether they’re true or not, as long as her name is mentioned. The more stories Huvane puts out, the more Aniston is covered by the tabloids, the more coverage movie producers see her getting, the more jobs she gets offered, the more Huvane gets paid. It’s a symbiotic relationship, and while Huvane certainly didn’t invent it, he’s the master at executing it.
Epiphany,
I see your argument and it is logical, it just doesn’t take into account that the tabloids don’t need any additional incentive from Aniston or her agent to put her in the papers, the fact that she moves papers is ample reason enough. I don’t say that just about her but about any well-known “star” that the tabloids print stuff about continually. Movie producers aren’t going to line up to give her first pick at scripts outside her genre regardless of what the tabloids say and, in fact, in might hinder her in even some comedic fare. OTOH, she will continue to get work based on the “bang for the buck” that she brings the studios and that isn’t conditional on tabloid covers.
Enjoy the rest of your weekend, I’m off to work 🙂

Jennifer doesn t care about pitt nor about mayer. Leave her alone.
Kaiser isn’t writing these stories for the tabloids, just reporting on them.
@ salma

All evidence to the contrary, salma. If Aniston and Huvane stopped giving stories to the tabloids to keep her name in the press, everyone would leave her alone. Aniston loves and needs the attention.
I never thought I’d say this but I think that you are underestimating tabloids and their writers. They don’t need to be “given” stories, they are perfectly capable of making them up on their own 🙂
OTOH, something tells me that I won’t convince you of this! 🙂
Not when they’re paid to do them, Tulip Garden. Never underestimate the power of money, nor the power of an extremely high profile agent of SEVERAL very high profile stars, some Oscar winners, who may or may not refuse said magazine an exclusive or even an interview.
Also, a well known blogger, Just Say Jen who worked for Star, The Enquirer and Yahoo online, said that Aniston and Huvane are INFAMOUS for leaking stuff about Aniston to the tabloids that they do it all the time they’re such pr whores. And this journo now self-employed doesn’t even like Angelina. She is simply a veteran tabloid writer and has had dealings with them and that is what she herself said. That they’re both pr obsessed and will go to any lengths to get a cover or headline. But many here already knew this because a few years back, Huvane had been caught out twice, phoning in goss only to ring back when the story was published, to deny. How? The tips and the denial, were traced back to the same phone line. His. I understand he has done it with a couple of other celebs, too, but Aniston is his number one pet project so gets 98% of his attention. He is well-known for it. I think you may be a little naive. lol
Sal,
I appreciate that you are defending your viewpoint. I still find very little credibility to your argument that people here “know” these things because so and so reported it. Particularly if that person is a tabloid person and doubly so if they are an unemployed one. Now, don’t get me wrong, if a legit news agency (heck, maybe even E cause that’s their line of work) reported on Huvane leaking and then denying stories, I’d read it up and eat it up ’cause DRAMA!
I agree that Huvane is well-known to be accused of planting and denying stories. Upthread I explained very logically why the more likely reason behind Aniston (and Brange) tabloid stories is because they are big business.
You, appear to have a different criteria for your viewpoint. While that doesn’t invalidate your viewpoint, it has done little to substantiate it as far as I can see. I am not naïve but I am logic-driven. If you argue that these tab stories keep Aniston in the headlines,, I agree. I believe it does the same for other high profile stars with as little basis in fact as the ones published about Aniston.
Tulip Garden, again I can understand why you want to think like that. I don’t intend to find you link after link after link of evidence that you’d just find an angle to discredit. I gave you a big clue. Just Say Jenn at http://www.justsayjenn.net She is well-known. She is NOT ‘unemployed’. This is a NAMED SOURCE. As I said, she has said who she previously worked for, and you can run a check and verify this yourself. She previously worked for omg.yahoo but parted ways after she exposed Yahoo’s deal with Leann Rimes and Darrell Brown (her songwriter, collaborator, close personal friend and number one industry cheerleader) for Yahoo! Ltd to only print positive information, she even published the documents on her blog somewhere. So, she quit working for them, and has struck out now on her own as a previously well-connected journo within the industry and is now a freelancer. I’ve given you her link. Check it out. Also, there were reports online about Huvane and a published phone timeline statement, from a tabloid Editor. I shall try to find that for you. But anything else, you’ll need to do your homework yourself on. But I honestly don’t think you will go searching, because I get the feeling you don’t want to as you’re afraid of what you might find.
E D I T: Here is the link to one of the articles where Jenn references Aniston: http://www.justsayjenn.net/2013/10/celebrity-journalism-101-magazines.html
Hey Sal,
I don’t want to think like that, I do think like that and I’ve explained why. I have to go to work now but when I have time I may check out your link. If it links to something along the lines of say, Bohomoth, who routinely makes up stories about the Brand then I’m sorry to say that it still won’t hold much credence to me.
Gossip blogs indeed I don’t consider more than tabloids on screen. Now legit magazines and/or news organizations are another matter altogether. I suspect that if a legit reporter or news organization had real goods on Aniston and/or Huvane, we would have heard it by now (and could still yet). Again, we may just have different criteria for what we consider viable news sources.
Also, I don’t expect you, or anyone, to do “homework” about celebrities. If the story is legit and big enough, it’ll find it’s way to this website and tons of others. The term “homework” suggests, perhaps, an unhealthy fixation of someone. While I like Aniston, warts and all (and, like everyone, she has them), I am not overinvested in liking her. Probably not as invested as you are in disliking her 🙂
And I’m pretty sure they don’t care about her either.
and shouldn’t they be left alone too.
Right on!!!
Can tabloïds hint me if Aniston has made her peace with her one week boyfriend Adam Duritz ?
I want to know if she had made peace with him and her then BFF Courtney who dated him right after he dumped Aniston.
After all this is the man who has hinted dating Jennifer Aniston was like being on a bad holiday….Asked about the Relationship in 2009, he said: “People are people — not movie stars.
“Some people you really dream about dating. Then, when you get there, you think, ‘Wow, this is not the vacation I thought it would be. This is not where I want to spend my vacation’.”
The comments were a further insult to Aniston, who was last week dumped by rocker boyfriend John Mayer…..
Wow I never knew he said that! Wow just wow I do think she has a bad reputation with most of her exes.
Tate Donovan indicated she was high maintenance. Are ALL these exes wrong? Or is it just one big coincidence?
Why is there a need for Jennifer Anniston’s views on other people’s relationships? Does anyone really care? Doubtful Kay Perry or John Mayer care what she thinks about them.
I just wanted to say thank you to Kaiser. I’ve been sick in bed all weekend and I really needed a laugh, which I got with the “Boobs McCakefoundation” line.:D
LOL. I was about to comment on that myself. Where did that come from? Now I wont be able to look at Katy Perry with thinking ‘here’s Boob McCakeFoundation’.
This is BS and why should John and Katy care if Jennifer is okay with them or not? Plus Katy can take down Jennifer without a single sweat.
What I find telling is that Jennifer is not friends with any if her exes nor do they have anything nice to say about her.
Adam D called her a bad holiday, Tate Donovan called high maintenance, Brad called her boring, Vince Vaughn had a huge fight with her in public and dumped her straight away, Paul S said she is fame hungry, John Mayer called her stuck in 1998 & boring, Josh Hopkins called her sportsf**k.
If one or two relationships breaks then you can blame the other person but when almost everyone of your relationships end the blame is surely with you.
I have always said that Jennifer is a taker and never a giver. She wrecked Tate D relationship with Sandra Bullock, she married Brad to get entrance into the movie world and a list group, she then started this whole poor cheated and dumped image for publicity, got together with Vince but then ruined their relationship so much that he refused to ever be in the same room as her, got together with John M the second time as a date to the Oscars 2009 because the Jolie-Pitts were nominated – this despite the fact that he publicly humiliated her, and now she is with Justin after wrecking his long term relationship with Heidi.
This tells me all I need to know about who Jennifer Aniston is and why her whole image is fake.
I agree with you all the way! Her track record speaks for itself….I would know out of all my relationships all have gone on to be happy with their SO-me I am alone and it took me until my 40’s to go “OK I am the impossible one here” but I am cool with that. It isn’t for everyone & I am certainly not famous so have no facade to present to the world just saying after some failed relationships one has to look in the mirror.
I just have to add to that 2009 oscar date Jen also wore her hair that way for some some guy she was married to once upon a time.
“Josh Hopkins called her sportsf**k” Omg! ROFLMAO! I forgot all about him!! 😀 😀
Why would any woman let John Mayer touch them?
I know. He should be the picture under “skeevy” in the dictionary.
I think that his “trapped look” expresses the pain of being trapped inside his exploitatively womanizing, manipulative self.
They have no self-esteem. I know that’s trite, but that’s all I can think of. This man has NOTHING. Not looks, not talent, not sensitivity, not personality, not even “bad boy” edginess.
This story makes no sense. Why would Jennifer Aniston even have to give her ‘blessing’ to John Mayer and Katy Perry? They haven’t been together in years and she’s engaged. I love gossip,but sometimes I just have to roll my eyes when it’s so obvious that some. if not all, of these stories are made up.
The story isn’t meant to make sense – another one may come out tomorrow that claims she’s still in love with Mayer. The whole point of these stories is to keep her name relevant, so we keep talking about her, and movie producers keep her in find for their films.
Can we all reminisce back on their infamous Oscar appearance, with Jen whispering to Mayer (loud for everyone to hear her) “I love you, every part of you”. Yea, true love for these two.
Ohgawd the implications of loving every part of that gross troll of a man.
I have never hear that quote before.I just Googled the 2009 Oscars were on Feb 22,People.com reported them over on March 12.Obviously the Oscar date was for PR or she stopped loving “every part” of him overnight
It was PEOPLE who magically heard Jennifer ‘whisper’ in John’s ear that she loved every part of him—while they were posing for pics behind the stage. Which, I would’ve thought was a sweet moment, if he hadn’t called her boring and stuck in the 90s TO THE PAPARAZZI shortly before that.
All I saw was someone who knew that her ex and his partner were both up for an award, she was presenting and didn’t want to go alone, and be ‘sad, lonely Jen’—so she wanted some hot piece with her. I get it, I don’t blame her.
But come on–almost ANYONE is better than John Mayor. I wouldn’t touch that douche with a ten foot pole, I don’t care how big his racist dick is (so, to be fair, he wouldn’t touch me either then).
I had never heard that quote before either.
@VC,
Also agree that Aniston didn’t want to attend the Oscars alone which I think was the impetus behind Mayer and Anniston’s rapprochement. Also, as I stated early, I think that that was poor decision-making on her part although, as you pointed out, understandable that she didn’t want to go alone. Also with you that someone else would have been a better choice.
Lastly, Mayer probably thinks he’s all that and wouldn’t touch the majority of posters on this site, white or black, ’cause we’re not famous! See, a plus for all of us! 🙂
I get that ‘pickins are slim in Hollywood, but the world is full of attractive decent but non-famous men who would’ve crawled over glass to take JA to the Oscars. Most of whom would’ve been a better choice than John Mayer.
@bettyrose, agree!
@bettyrose – that or take one of her family members (like her Dad), or maybe her BFF hair dresser guy. The stunt of taking Mayer to the Oscars was such a bad and pathetic move imo.
@Camille (The OG)
Her Dad would have been a great option! She should have done that and let the tabs write all the “poor Jen” stories that they wanted to.
@Virgilia Coriolanus, who wrote: “All I saw was someone who knew that her ex and his partner were both up for an award, she was presenting and didn’t want to go alone, and be ‘sad, lonely Jen’—so she wanted some hot piece with her. I get it, I don’t blame her.”
All I saw was someone who flubbed an opening joke prior to presenting so they could look helplessly out at their ex-husband and his love (for a 5-second count) for PR spin.
truthSF, I am now unable to finish my breakfast.
LOL! 😀
I’m so sorry SULLIVAN. 🙁
Omhell Aniston! Just stop. I’m actually embarassed for you now. You have become cringe worthy. You have actually made me feel bad for every man you have ever been with. It’s so clear that you love and perpetuate and allow and feed all this, and you don’t even know what a fool you’ve made of yourself.
Bravo!
Word!
+1 million
I don’t really care about the story, but I did love that gown she wore.
I really liked it too–and her hair looked really good too. I didn’t like her 2013 Oscar dress–I loved the color, but I think she could’ve gotten it tailored a little shorter, because me and her are the same height and size and we both would’ve looked squat in a dress that big, with that huge train. And I hated her hair–WHO wears long, beachy, dry (it looked like straw and static-y to me) with a formal gown?
Good to know she gave her exes her blessing in their new relationships. Are they trying to make her sympathetic or a narcissist?
Yet again, Huvane working overtime. Its got Huvane’s fingerprints all over it. He always has Aniston deified and made out to be so so haaappppyyy. And he always has a slam at Brad. Just look at these giveaway clues:
“Of course Jen is in such a good place with her own relationship that she can get away with being magnanimous.”
and
“No matter what happens, there’s a lot of mutual respect between John and Jen that doesn’t exist between Jen and Brad Pitt at the moment.”
Its VINTAGE Huvane.
Nice one Sal! You and I are the voices in the wilderness proclaiming the truth, that all these stories, nor matter how ridiculous, are planted by Huvane for one purpose; publicity for his #1 client. They don’t have to make sense, and they don’t have to be true, they just have to garner her attention.
she should have just married “ross” at the end of friends and saved us all this trouble,that character ws perfect for her
HA!HA! Great comment!
Completely off topic but has “ross” ever married in real life? I thought it went like this:
“Ross” – never married? I really don’t know about him.
“Phoebe” – Married and stayed married and has children
“Joey” – Married, divorced, and (I believe) has child born with some sort of illness
“Chandler” – never married, last dated Lizzie Caplan but broke up, no children
“Monica” – married, divorced, has child, dating guy from Snow Patrol
“Rachel” – Married, divorced, no children, engaged
This is just musings on my part but if anyone is interested….if not, I know, google is my friend 🙂
@tulip ,love ur name ,i think he did marry and has a son/daughter? but OMG,he did date Natalia imburglia i rmbr that ,
oh i say next time Jen;s agent should send out a public notice”kindly watch Jen’s movie or u shal be subjected to repeats of her liasons ,hurt and all that she had to suffer in the name of love ,smartwater and brazilian keratin treatment”
‘”Ross” never married? I don’t really know about him.’
Man, I wish that was a statement we could make about Aniston!
David is married to a woman named Zoe Buckman. They had a baby girl not that long ago.
Okay, question–how did Brad Pitt treat her worse than John Mayor? Whatever the truth behind their split is–we, the public, won’t ever know–but in the three, four months after their split, I’ve read that they were friendly and supportive of each other. They went to industry parties together, still wearing their wedding rings. They didn’t avoid each other, at said parties, but stood and talked and had fun together. He threw her a birthday party–and attended it. In the post separation interviews that he did, he said the rumors of them separating because she wouldn’t have a baby was bullshit. He didn’t make any of the ‘I was making my marriage into something it wasn’t’ remarks until years later.
Contrast that to John Mayor, who called her boring and stuck in the 90s, and said that he was too young to sit in a kitchen all day and play with dogs–which is one of the first times I’d ever heard of him….those quotes and that Rolling Stone interview.
It’s also pretty obvious that he got back with her because he wanted to go to the Oscars and be seen–so he was using her for that. He didn’t have any respect for her at all–why is it that SHE had to explain HIS remarks (I think her first/last Vogue interview)–he’s the douchebag who said it. He should have to defend and explain it—not the person who did nothing.
I don’t see how one person treating you poorly is better than another person treating you poorly, in general. Of course, there is such a thing as unforgivable behavior and that probably differs, to some degree, from person to person. BTW, this isn’t a comment about pitt/mayer/aniston, it is just an observation.
I’m talking about publicly (and what the story said–that John and Jennifer have a mutual respect that she doesn’t have with Brad, apparently)…..
What is with John Mayer’s magical dong that causes these over the top A-list women to fall over themselves for him? Does his d*ck tell you you’re pretty and agrees to watch the Notebook with you on rainy days? Does it hold your hand on bumpy flights? What’s the deal here?
Yes, he’s attractive. Way back in the day I remember watching ‘John Mayer has a TV show’ and finding him charming. But he, like so many tools before him, gives off that air of use and dispose. He’s a lower tier Clooney and DiCaprio. Clooney seems more perpetual bachelor and Dicaprio seems more playboy-Hugh Heffner-ish. Mayer just seems sleazy about his relationships. I think with Clooney and Dicaprio they’re upfront that babies and marriage are not going happen. Mayer looks like like the kind of guy who would promise you the world and then hump and dump.
i would break up with ANY guy who watched or wanted to watch THE NOTEBOOK with me!!
Ugh. Sometimes I think Jen needs to just get over crap.
Didn’t Jennifer go on in an interview how she would always love Brad when she was with Mayer? (this about the time the cost of flying her hair-man around the UK to do her hair came out)….come on, any person, with a partner carrying on about loving forever their ex has to sting. Jennifer seems to do this when she has a new man. Talk too much about her exes. Nobody wants to hear that and eventually everyone sees through it….wonder how Justin feels?
“Drop his name
Push it in and twist the knife again
Watch my face
As I pretend to feel no pain, pain, pain” John Mayer – Heartbreak Warfare
I just don’t know why she had to make any peace at all. He was a douche and as much as I’m not a fan of Aniston, he didn’t deserve her. Perry doe, match made in heaven.
God, yes. The very first time I had read anything about John Mayor, was on this site and it was two stories–the one about what he said to the paps, and his Rolling Stone interview, where he talked about his racist dick. I don’t understand how any woman can get with him, especially since he disses all of his exes to the public.
Why is she still relevant?!?! She’s Rachel from Friends, and that’s it, that was her career peak.
Oh sorry, marrying Pitt was her career peak.
Then he left and she got stuck with the “scorned woman” trademark ever since.
I mean, Pitt has been with Angie twice as long as he was with this boring one-note and still the comparisons keep coming!
And no, Brad Pitt is not worse than John Mayer, WTF is wrong with women??? Mayer is the ultimate douchebag of douchebags, I wouldn’t touch him with a ten foot sterilized Moriarty-secured-sleaze-fool-proof pole. Eww eww ewww. The comments he made about Jessica Simpson and his general attitude towards women is appalling. I can’t believe he gets sex for free, I’d have thought a sleazebag like him would have to pay for it.
So Aniston, I always thought you were dull, boring and plain, I still do, but at least I thought that was something you couldn’t help. But this, THIS you could have avoided.
And yet they blame Pitt for leaving…
+1. Great comment.
“She can get away with being magnanimous”?
How is only getting over a previous relationship when you are happy generously forgiving?
You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.
@ Lisa
You are correct & I am so hoping you are quoting from Princess Bride with your last sentence.
Me, too! Loved Princess Bride.
Right?! Plus…I didn’t know we could only “get away with” being “magnanimous” if we were in relationships. I thought letting go and moving on was a decent, adult thing to do regardless, but apparently you need to be paired off first.
Okay seriously, I’ll ask again.
If PR people can’t do anything about the negative/untrue stories (except deny them, which I could get my mom to do that for a lifetime exchange of rum&coke) that come out, then what is the point in having a pr person? You’re just wasting your money. I can’t help but think that they plant at least *some* of the stories and/or make deals with tabloids–and this goes for all celebs.
Virigilia,
I think the advantages of having a publicist has more to do with what he/she can get for their client as opposed to trying to mitigate the negative press — although many believe Huvane is the mastermind behind Aniston’s negative press as well, as he like to plant stories and then deny them.
With regard to the advantages of having a publicist, Huvane has managed to “buy” awards for Aniston (as some would phrase it) like the “Hottest Woman of All Time” title she won a few years back and just about everyone thought was a joke (so much so, they had to pull down the comment section at Yahoo.com). He also secures magazine covers of prime issues for her, such as People’s Special Double Issue, which should have had the Oscar winners on the cover but instead went to Aniston in which she talked about her wedding, only to grab another cover a few months later saying it’s on hold. In addition, since joining CAA, Huvane has secured prime coverage for Justin in GQ and made sure he was included in People Magazine’s Sexiest Men Alive issue. There’s also the photo ops as well. When JustJen were in Europe (was it last summer?) Us Weekly had a six-page pictorial of their “European romance” including pictures of her feeding him on their hotel balcony. Clearly posed photos as the image quality was “publication ready.”
As I’m sure you know, Huvane is one of the top publicists in Hollywood and Aniston’s press is at times daunting. I’ve noticed he’s been very successful at making embarrassing things Aniston has said or done “disappear” online when I go back and try to find a comment from one of her interviews. I’m fairly certain he’s taken a significant amount of her fortune in his publicist fees.
You know Huvane’s brother hooked her up with that GQ cover, as well as Justin. Isn’t he the editor of GQ–something like that,.
I love the Huvane brothers–they have each other’s backs…
Well stated. Both Stephen Huvane and Jennifer seem to nurse a grudge for years now. That’s got to burn Huvane that the Jolie-Pitts don’t employ publicists and pay the almighty percentages to him or his PR buddies.
Virgilia – Yes, it’s either GQ or Slate, I think. So true about the Huvane Brothers. They look out for each other. I think there are five brothers in total. A few are NY-based I believe. The youngest one is an actor. I’m sure he’ll be taken care of.
For someone who’s entire existence revolves around her looks, she is aging badly.
Hurray! Aniston has made peace with John Mayer and Katy Perry!! Let’s all have cake!
Cosign! Who’s up for Red Velvet?
Buttercream or cream cheese frosting ??? Either way count me in for a slice 🙂
Cream cheese all the way!
“wants to see them start a family together” ?? Is Jennifer their grandma? Breeder? Pimp?
They should have his photo next to a definition of “douchebag” in Webster.
Btw, I lost respect for Jennifer when she took him back after his impromptu press conference announcing how HE broke up with her, how boring and stuck in the past she was. The man is a dick and not even a very attractive one.
I can’t stop laughing at these lines: “Of course Jen is in such a good place with her own relationship that she can get away with being magnanimous.” OTHERWISE SHE CAN’T. LOL
And the true gold: ““No matter what happens, there’s a lot of mutual respect between John and Jen that doesn’t exist between Jen and Brad Pitt at the moment.” … LOL, of course it had to mention Brad. No, well, she’s in such good place with her relationship.. right? ah!
Oh good I’m so glad, because it was keeping me awake at night.
*facepalm
It is so bizarre how people care so much about Jennifer, brad and Angie like they know them personally . And they go on, and on and on about the same things . No one knows jack about these celebs. And people become so insulted if someone dares to say Angie is skinny or Jeennifer likes to tan. Just so bizarre
