From what I remember about the inner workings of Friends, Jennifer Aniston and David Schwimmer were never really that tight. Jennifer was close to Courteney Cox, of course, and she was pretty close to Matthew Perry and Matt LeBlanc. But it feels like Lisa Kudrow was off doing her own thing and Schwimmer was never really beloved by his coworkers (although Schwimmer did come up with the idea of negotiating their salaries as a group). So, while I was slightly surprised that Jennifer didn’t invite LeBlanc and Perry to her wedding last month, I wasn’t surprised that Schwimmer was not on the invite list. But it seems that Schwimmer was surprised!
So much for old friends! While grabbing dinner with Matt LeBlanc in Beverly Hills, a source reveals to In Touch magazine that David Schwimmer didn’t hold back when the topic of Jennifer Aniston’s Aug. 5 wedding to Justin Theroux was brought up.
“Someone nearby overheard them talking about how they weren’t invited. David was really angry,” a source says. “He said he couldn’t believe he’d been snubbed, because he was an important person in Jen’s life for 10 years.”
“[David] thought he would be the first one invited!” the source continued. “He said he’s going to plan a Friends reunion party, and Jen’s invite might just get lost in the mail!”
OMG, Friends drama. This would be big news if it was 1999 and Friends was still in production and if they really were Ross and Rachel in real life and Jennifer accidentally said “I take thee, David” during her vows. My thoughts: Jennifer had every right to include or exclude various people in her guest list. Courteney and Lisa Kudrow made the cut and none of the guys did. And that’s fine. I seriously doubt Schwimmer is really all that upset about it, but I still think LeBlanc and Perry were probably sort of hurt.
Here are some photos of Aniston on the Atlanta set of Mother’s Day yesterday. Her costumes look really comfortable.

She is so boring. I’ll never understand how she became a star.
Me neither.
Is this yet ANOTHER excuse to talk about the wedding no one cares about. Give it up, Aniston, your “wedding”, as a PR move, BOMBED, as bad as one of your lousy films.
Friends. Hair.
Yup, that about sums it up.
Dad. Friends. Hair. Brad.
Hair. Dad. Friends. Hair. Brad. Justin. Hair. (Rinse. Repeat.)
She is famous purely because she was married to Brad Pitt. Face it, she almost didn’t get chosen for Friends in the first place, and she was merely an ensemble player.
After to her marriage to Brad Pitt, she became much more high profile. She isn’t that great an actress. Her movies are not that highly rated or even highest grossing. But she was married to Brad Pitt, then made a career our of being the scorned wife.
Now she makes as much money hawking SmartWater and Aveeno and her hair products, as she does for her movies. Although she did make a tremendous effort to get herself an award with CAKE…and was publicly derided for the attempt.
I don’t think that is necessarily true. I remember Friends clearly in its first run and her hair is what made her popular in my opinion. The Rachel haircut. Hell, I even wanted it. I think that catapulted her to become one of the more popular cast mates but her marriage to BP did increase her popularity.
Friends was very successful but TV didn’t have the cachet then that it does now. Pitt was a MOVIE star and her marriage put her on the A list because of him and because Huvane worked overtime for her.
The divorce gave her a lot of attention and sympathy (not from me, lol). She benefited from her proximity to Brad and Angie, the world’s hottest couple at the time. She was the weakest side of that triangle.
Her movies were and are mediocre, so it’s not like her work was so spectacular.
Bullcrap she had her own fame way before Pitt.. I believe she already had an emmy under her belt for Friends. Good lord GET OVER THE PITT CRAP. SHe is not ugly, she may not have AJ’s face, but she is a pretty lady and ummm are we at JJ? DId i click on the wrong site?
WHy are people angry at her? I will never get it.. smdh.
No way. She was huge before Brad Pitt. She was the #1 star of the show, even though they were an ensemble. I’m not a fan of hers, but that would be like saying Seinfeld wasn’t particularly famous.
history revisionist
Aniston was a popular TV actress, but her marriage to Pitt secured her movie industry career. Without Brad, her post-Friends career would most likely NOT have included major film roles and would have mirrored the professional careers of her Friends co-stars. So her marriage to Pitt, coupled with HIS film career fame, definitely “elevated” her industry cache.
She’s better off on TV though. Her film “career” is not A-list and she has yet to open a successful movie or her name alone – the sole qualification for an A-list movie actor or actress.
Missy — No, the Emmy for Friends (and her Golden Globe) came DURING her marriage to Pitt and not before.
@missy. I agree with everything that you said. I am no Aniston fan, and she is definitely not ugly. She was famous before Brad, B- list to C, and their marriage put her into the A list. She is an okay actress, and she does have some comedic timing.
Well she could buy A J’s face. AJ did.
@Brodie: you really are obsessed with Angelina Jolie aren’t you?
Angelina is naturally gorgeous – the proof is her own children who have her features.
Are you now going to claim that her children had plastic surgery to look like their mother????
She is so boring. Ugh. But I will take the time to write a comment about how boring she is because I am so bored. TGIF
Well, Houston Texans defensive end, J J Watt, LOVES her. 🙂
I also like Aniston. I think she is adorable and I like her style. While she may not be gorgeous like Charlize Theron, very few are btw, I think she is very cute.
As for her having help because of her access to trainers, hair stylists, etc., well, that is EVERYONE in Hollywood. I would say a good 95% of celebrities would look rather pedestrian without the benefit of stylists, hair and makeup people, and most importantly, plastic surgery. Compared to many others, she is far more natural looking. But, to each their own.
And Missy to answer your question, two words: Angelina Jolie.
Billy Bob loves her too. 😀
Brodie is that true? If so, considering he once married to Jolie, that’s interesting.
Yup it’s true. They interviewed BB at some awards show and asked who he’d choose between JA and I think Reese W. He said always JA, that he had a thing for her. Lol
@Leanne: another thing that is more interesting, which Brodie won’t admit to, is that Jennifer’s current husband Justin once said his dream woman is Angelina Jolie. That she is gorgeous, adventures and edgy just like him.
LeAnn Stinks, if you are against homewrecking, why would you support Jen Aniston who seduced and stole Justin from Heidi, then flaunted it in poor Heidi’s face by doing a photoshoot only a week after Heidi fled the apartment? What makes Aniston better than LeAnn? I personally, do not find homewreckers ‘adorable’.
Hair… LOTS of hair, and balls…hairy BALLS! : P (yuck!)
She is so butterface, Justin gets to wake up to that … better to work apart in separate cities…agh, he gets to look at that face in the shower too, if they shower together, ugh…sorry, I can’t help it, I’m old and that’s my story and I’m sticking to it (voice of experience) 😛
I like her. I think she has a great sense of humor. I don’t care about her marriage because I have nothing to do with her real life. I have no idea why David cares either. Baffling.
LOL..
David seems to be the one that has moved on from the “Friends” thing. He is married and has a child. You don’t ever see him with any of them really. Not that I can recall.
Not sure why there are still stories about this wedding and who was or wasn’t invited.
He did cameos on Episodes and Web Therapy, so he’s not averse to doing those sort of mini reunions.
There is A story about this, because Jennifer and Justin’s publicist need to get their name in the press before The Leftovers season premiere.
Yep. You know Huvane, always calling his contacts at In Touch Weekly. Her power house publicist. Calling In Touch.
I’m pretty sure that Schwimmer is pursuing off-camera opportunities, namely directing. I wouldn’t blame him really since he was the face of the neutered man and hens were hoping that Brad would slide into that role for Aniston in real life.
I remember when some hens got into a snit because Schwimmer showed up to one of the red carpet screenings for TAOJJ.
That is the most ridiculous comment ever re “moving on”…Like getting married / having child puts one immediately in a more noble “non-sitcommish” place
I don’t buy this story. As you said, I don’t think Aniston and Schwimmer were that close.
Right? And if they have drifted apart over 10 years, why would either care about wedding invites? Hells bells, I have family members who I haven’t spoken to in 10 years- and they aren’t invited to my wedding… this is a non-story.
Jeez, there are plenty of people with whom I’ve worked in the past, and I liked and still like many of them, but am not necessarily going to invite them to every life event celebration.
I suppose it’s a testament to how popular Jennifer Aniston still is, that gossip rags will still spend the time making up rumors about her.
So these two grown men were having dinner and gossiping and whining about why they weren’t invited to a wedding and someone just happened to hear them? Lol, ok.
Right? The tabloids could, at the least, TRY to make this believeable.
Amazing coincidence, isn’t it?
Actually I’ve heard grown men whine about much more petty things. They laugh at women for being gossipy and catty, but dudes get butthurt over the slightest things and aren’t afraid to moan about it.
I don’t know if I necessarily believe this particular story, but I believe that such a scenario (two guys bitching about a perceived social slight) is very possible.
Not being invited to a wedding can definitely be a thing, male or female.
So true, and when the happy couple have all the money in the world for a huge guest list, I can imagine there’s even more room for hurt feelings.
Weddings are like a thermometer for how much someone likes you. And when someone has as much money as a Jennifer Aniston it can be hard when they go with a small guest list,,because it’s not cost-driven it’s by choice.
I work in a manufacturing facility that is 95% Men and 5% women and at least here the men are FAR more gossipy/catty than the women. They complain so much! and the infighting! ridiculous
Agreed, Wren. And I find men complain much more than women, just a little less obvious.
No kidding, Ang. I was in a similar environment and it was just like that. For example, I ended up being the go-between for my boss and this other guy because they couldn’t stand each other and acted like they were in middle school about it. This also meant I had to listen to them bitch about each other because they were both senior to me so I couldn’t tell them to knock it off and grow up.
Right? While I don’t buy the story like at all, it’s true that men can be just as gossipy, catty and back-stabby as women. It’s not a gender thing but a human thing.
Bridget and Wren :: I agree. Seems pettier to exclude them from the guest list than for Matt(s)/David to complain about it. Not denying there’s a giggle factor imagining them kvetching about it… reminiscent of a Friends episode (ha!). But, geez… so she’s poor… or just can be that picky about her *friends*. Pfft. Whatever.
Ugh the men in my office constantly get butthurt over perceived slights and whine endlessly about “so and so doesn’t like me.” Hey, I’m not immune to perceived slights either, but I’ve long since learned to keep the butthurt to myself.
I know, right! It’s all such bullshit, but yet the media keeps talking about her, and it drives the JP fans psycho. As, evident in this thread or any other Aniston thread . One day, they will realize they are the ones keeping this triangle alive and well. They truly can’t help themselves! Sad….
Shockingly, men gossip just as much as women. I’ve been the sole woman out many times with my husband and his guy friends and I often let myself fade into the background and they seem to forget I’m there, especially when they get a few drinks into them. Oh, boy the dirt starts flowing. These are your typical military and ex-military guys, too. A bunch of cackling hens.
It’s also a complete fallacy that women like to talk more than men. Men just don’t *like* the competition… they prefer ALL the bandwidth. Which sounds like I hate men. I don’t. But, boy do they like to talk.
BLUE BALLS all around…!
I think they were all incredibly close as a group, pretty much everyone said the six of them were stuck together like glue for the first few Friends years, on and off set. You can see in behind the scenes stuff, they act like family not co-workers. But being tight as a group of six is different from being tight one on one. Aniston and Cox were the only two who became BFF’s outside of the group.
I never heard anything about Aniston attending Schwimmers wedding, so I highly doubt he’s cut up about not going to hers.
Yeah. I mean, I had a small core group of friends in high school, but I didn’t invite every single one of them to my wedding; I invited the ones I’ve actually spoken to and seen over the last several years along with friends I’ve made more recently. It’s possible someone’s feelings were hurt, I guess, but it doesn’t seem super likely. This is pretty normal.
Sounds like total nonsense to me. All of these “overheard by a witness in a restaurant” stories smell fishy.
Am I supposed to believe that these people, who are very aware of the fact that they are in a public place surrounded by listening ears, are going to have heated discussions about topics of a personal nature? Sometimes, yes, I’m sure it does happen. But I call bs on this.
I’m trying to imagine my hubby, out at a restaurant with one of his buddies, whining about not getting invited to someone’s wedding. {chuckle}
Yeah, that sounds like total BS.
I thought he lived in England and has for years. Doubt he even gave it a thought.
He did. After about six years, Emily forgave him for blurting out Rachel’s name. She did specify in the divorce that he couldn’t attend any future wedding she may have. Hence his failure to attend.
You. Win!
Perfect!
Beautiful. Bravo!!
Ha!
Wow,I’m really behind on my gossip. ☺
That’s some serious Liz Lemon shade, “her costumes look really comfortable.” 🙂
“Another cool part was the trees.”
I love you for that reference.
“I take thee, David…” LOL
What is she doing with her mouth in those pics? I’m going to punch her
LOL! I wasn’t expecting that last sentence…so random, so funny! “I’m going to punch her” lol! I’m awake now. Lol!
I thought the same thing (I mentioned my hate of duck faces on a different thread the other day!), but I think she’s chewing in these pics. It looks like she’s holding an apple slice maybe, so hopefully she’s just eating and not duck facing.
She is eating an apple slice. There are pics of her holding a bag of them.
I bet David doesn’t and didn’t give a f^%k about Jennifer’s wedding.
Yes!
Sure someone overheard this in a restaurant. Lol
Highly doubt that this is true. If it is, however, David is a whiny annoying beotch just as his alter ego Ross was.
I knew it! Frumpy mom look. WHY? Even the pants are too big for her……..
And yea, I doubt he gives a crap. It was always her and Courtney that were BFFs……
Don’t hate on those pants! I just broke down and bought a pair of drop crotch pants virtually identical to the what JA is wearing (I’m 36 and feel like I’m too old), but they are SERIOUSLY THE MOST COMFY PANTS I HAVE EVER OWNED. Hers don’t look too big at all. They look nice and long and comfortable.
PS And can we please stop with the “frumpy mom” tag? It’s not like she’s wearing puke stained and ripped pajamas with uncombed hair. We’re not all 19 anymore, and not all of us have the bodies we used to or feel the need to constantly doll up–especially when we have other people that need taken care of. I think she looks cute and comfy–if that’s “frumpy mom” then I guess I’m screwed.
I’m the mom that’s always in workout gear, so I guess I’m a different “mom stereotype”
I still don’t ‘get’ drop crotch pants and kind of don’t understand how they’re a thing – but more power to you if you found a great pair that you love!
I think they’re frumpy because they’re too big, and just ugly. Her top is fine. And I think THAT perpetuates the stereotype of frumpy mom–especially in this film where she plays as someone whose ex remarried to a younger woman.
@Bridget: I didn’t “get” drop crotch pants, either. I lived thru the 80s when Hammer pants were a thing, and I disliked them even then. But I was out shopping, they were on sale, so on a whim I tried them on. While they’re not the most flattering pants I’ve ever owned, they are so freaking comfy! My husband teases me when I wear them, but I don’t even care. My “mom” uniform is maxi dresses & cute sandals in summer and skinny jeans & knee boots in the fall/winter (I’m all about comfort while still trying not to look like a “frump”) so my new baggy pants fit into the wardrobe better than I expected. 🙂
Drop-crotch pants are heavenly. Especially after years of being assaulted by skinny jeans.
Not gonna lie, that the current style I’m sporting when at home, Virg!!! I love casual jogger style pants :).
At home, YES (I’m in sweatpants that used to belong to my sister)! But for a movie?!?! They’re ugly and why does the ex have to either go in frumpy mom mode (solely because of those pants), or be desperate and dress younger? I guess stereotypes are going to rule this movie. Which, that’s what you get when you sign up for a Gary Marshall movie.
I guess Julia isn’t filming yet. We haven’t seen her smug face yet.
If someone I worked with in the 90s left me off the wedding invite list in 2015, I’d be seething with indifference.
Exactly! Look let’s be honest. Unless it’s the marriage of someone you are super close to, weddings suck! They do, they really do. Going to a wedding out of obligation is definitely a pet peeve.
ITA! A couple of times current coworkers who I was not especially close to invited me to weddings, putting me in the award position of politely declining but providing a nice gift. I feel like weddings are for family and close friends. It’s a very intimate experience, with drunken toasts and elderly relatives sharing embarrassing childhood stories that your coworkers don’t need to be included in unless you’re also close friends.
Lol. Right?
Seething with indifference. Love that turn of phrase.
I’m with Mia4S. You’re doing me a favor by NOT inviting me to your wedding. Unless you and I are very close, I’m not going to go.
Wish I could embroider “You’re doing me a favour by NOT inviting me to your wedding” and stick it on my front door, make it my answering machine message, bumper sticker for the truck, etc.
Jennifer is so beautiful. She looks really good for her age.
Seriously, is this snark?
I think she looks good too.
The story is shit.
I like her. She also looks really pretty in the photo with David, I didn’t remember her with the bob.
I like the bob, too. I caught a few reruns of Friends recently and I thought she looked great with it.
The only thing I have to say is, my how her breasts has grown compared. Looking at the photo of her and David on top and the photo of her yesterday. Justin is going to be angry he does not want her to put anything foreign in her body :).
Wasn’t that when she was in her I-only-eat-caesar-chicken-salads-for-lunch-every-day-for-ten-years phase? I think she just gained weight, and now that she wasn’t super skinny (for her), some of that weight went into her bust.
Cobb salad, no dressing
I don’t see a huge difference. I agree with Virgilia it looks like weight gain.
My first thought, Huvane is one busy man thinking of new ways to pimp Jennifer.
I agree. If the story regarding Schwimmer’s wedding from a few years ago is true (Dave Letterman asked Aniston about Schwimmer’s upcoming wedding; Aniston responded she had no idea who Schwimmer was marrying. This ticked Schwimmer off b/c he had been with his fiancée for several years), I doubt David cares at this point about Jen’s three-year production of a wedding.
But I could totes see Leblanc & Schwimmer dishing about Jen over lunch and cringing at the level of publicity she gets for basically staying tan & wearing hair extensions.
BTW, I think some forget how completely on fire Aniston’s career/image was pre-Pitt. But she was also very thirsty, which I don’t think was acknowledged back in the day. The RS cover alone did wonders for her being perceived as “hot”. Her movie career has always been…tepid, but prior to her marriage she was in an Ed Burns film (that was a big deal at the time! And I thought she was great in it) and she had starring roles in Object of My Affection and Picture Perfect (in which she was totally adorable). After she married Pitt she was doing crap like “Rock Star”.
I don’t mean to put any blame on Pitt here, rather I think it is very important to Jennifer how she is perceived: desirable, youthful and a “cool girl”. Not too unforgivable when you’re young, but by the time one reaches your forties (if not earlier) I’ve found you better start living in the now rather than the past b/c there’s no winning when you try to stay young. I’m not just referring to looks here, but also emotional maturity and independence. I was a fan of Aniston years ago; I thought she had a lot of charm & great timing. But I can’t watch her any longer b/c all I see is PR manipulation as well as a millionaire who’s adding to her pockets by hawking product she doesn’t use. (I’m not referring to the truckloads of Smartwater. I’m talking about Aveno – in the commercials where she refers to herself as beautiful. Any ‘skin routine guides’ that Aniston used to give with interviews listed products that started in the $90 – $150 range. It just grates my cheese when celebrities who already have so much of everything shill stuff they never use.
What an obvious story for a tabloid to invent. I am sure Friends based stories are still pretty popular even if it is not 1999.
I have read that the gals tried to organize lunches with all the cast and Schwimmer never had been able to make it, that the guys were more unreliable. Surely that can be found as a source?
Someone needs to remind him that he isn’t Ross and she isn’t Rachel. Gawd.
No, I thinks he’s clear on that……
🙂
Come on, surely SOMEONE was interested in this backyard wedding executed in multiple shades of beige? David?
I guess they were all invited to the first one? I made good friends at all my jobs, but I can’t think of anyone from a job from that long ago that I would invite to my wedding. I understand being hurt at not being included, but Jen’s wedding=Jen’s rules.
So…he went ‘Red Ross’ then?
LOL! Still love that show. I watch I now with my 16 year old daughter, who is also a big fan.
Supposedly Brad and Angies kids are fans as well. Shiloh and Zahara for sure.
When you get married, you invite people who are key in your life at that time, not everyone who ever was. Not too many of us are inviting our favorite 3rd grade teacher or college professor, even though they were a big deal to us a zillion years ago. How many coworkers from past jobs would I invite….uh….none.
I can see why he was mad that he did not get an invitation, but when someone is getting married they are busy and sometimes can’t be on top of everything. She also could not of wanted him there and that is her decision since it was here wedding.
But……..weren’t they on a break????? 😉
Exactly.
WE WERE ON A BREAK!!!!!
To make my weird “what song do I think of” when looking at a celeb face today a trifecta, (Ben and William, and now Jen) I shall add this and then take my leave today and spare y’all the rest of my thoughts. (Being angry on the Twitter has made me decide to go out and commune with nature for the rest of the day to save my sanity…..but I digress…) I see her and it’s.. “Jenny, Jenny who can I turn to? Rach’ hair, smart water, ‘Veeno’s mine…Rach hair, smart water and ‘Veeno’s mi-ee-ine!”
I’m out.
When was the last time she was seen w her hair NATURALLY curly?? It must be exhausting to keep that up all the time. Everyone know her hair is thick w beautiful curls….why doesnt she ever embrace it?? Im jealous, if i had her wonder locks i’d never straighten ny hair
Actually everyone knows that her hair is a weave.
I doubt Leblanc and Schwimmer were gossiping like a bunch of school girls. Whether or not you’re an actor, there should be no pressure to invite your co-workers (or esp former co-workers) to your wedding. When I was engaged I couldn’t stand when some co-workers would flat out ask me if they were invited.
I realize this is going to sound stupid… but, Friends made Jennifer Aniston. In my mind, she has tried for years to deny that… and pretend like she’s done things as big as that show… or her first marriage. She was hugely popular when she married Pitt, that’s true. But her acting career didn’t and doesn’t have legs, in terms of profile and importance (except for in ‘bloid-land). All told, if she remains a name past her career, it will be for Friends,
That said, if it were me… and my second marriage… 10+ years on from my iconic role, all my co-stars from that show would get an invite. Unless I was poor and just couldn’t afford it if they showed up. But I’d still probably include them on the invite list… and ask them to bring booze.
Moving on…
Well she’s doing something right via movies. She’s always working whereas younger actresses can’t seem to buy a job.
She had gained that because of her name, the Show and of course her divorce. Yes she is working; but according to her she doesn’t get offered the roles she would like to be considered for. She has worked with Bigger named male actors and had BO success based on them. And I say that because she has never had a film that she is the big name have a BO success.. Other comedic actresses have. She has not. Every movie she has headlined has flopped. And that record continues. She has had BO failure with the last 4 movies she was the lead in. So yes she is working.. but after her Oscar push for Cake she didn’t get any work for over a year. Then she got this movie with Marshall.. Some comedy that probably won’t do well either.
She has benefited from her divorce. But in the end it has not helped her to become the acting success she herself has said she wants to be. The fact that she can’t carry a film or get a film financed is a Big Red Flag. If she was so talented and popular; why do her fans spend their time supporting her on gossip sites and not in a theater. Her last film made less than 2 million so far. I see her fans talking about how unfair gossip comments are towards her; but not a word on her acting in that last film. Nothing. Why? because they didn’t bother to try and see it. Whenever they talk about her acting it is always for some film years ago. Why? because they know her movies are not doing well and they don’t support her that way. Just making comments on gossip sites putting down her ex-husband and his wife.
I am not a fan of Jennifer Aniston but truly I do not understanf all the hate thrown at her.Why was it abnormal for her to feel bad that her husband left her for a younger prettier woman why don’t you all let Angelina steal yes I said steal (because that is what she did flirted with a married man sex or no sex)your husbands then tell me how you will like it.You will all be screaming evil woman.She married a man and out of nowhere he left her suddenly now she is a bad person for feeling hurt.Yet everyone feels bad for Garner who knew and went after and went ahead and married a renoun playboy.Really at times I do not get the world what is considered normal to hate on just does not make sense to me yet we are supposed to feel sorry for selfish calculating social climbing women.Truly the world is just vain imo
OUT OF NOWHERE..
exactly where did you get that from. Do you really think that Jennifer and Brad divorced suddenly. We see all the time couples that were thought to be fine divorce and were separated for a long time. Jennifer said she knew her marriage was over the Summer of 2004. They parted in Jan. 2005.. that doesn’t sound like out of nowhere. Courteney Cox said Brad went to her and said he was attracted to Angie.. Jen told him to go and get it out of his system then come back.. He said he couldn’t do that and be married. NOW how does that sound like “out of nowhere”… yes she had a right to be angry and upset.. Anyone would..
Jennifer liked that the majority of the world was on her side.. She liked that Angie was being attacked. Problem is that kind of thing doesn’t last. And at some point the “POOR JEN” narrative turns to something else. It has been almost 11 years. In that time she has had other relationships. She has had a good life. Why is it necessary for people to continue patting her head because she got a divorce. Her husband moved on first. If she had done so this whole thing would have been very different. But again Jennifer enjoyed the way she was treated and the way her ex husband and the woman he loves were treated too.
Jennifer is not a baby. And it is amazing to me that her fans still feel the need to be so butt hurt on her behalf because her ex husband is happy. She is married to a man they say is hotter; and better. So why not focus on that.
The Poor Jen thing should be over.. but maybe her Fans need to get the message; because they are still painting that picture every time they throw in a snarky comment about Angie/Brad.
@Know It All, I’m not an Aniston fan because:
* she has made a silk purse out of a sow’s ear (she has zero acting skills. Her relative’s connections – Victor Kiriakis from Days Of Our Lives – helped her get the Friends role)
* she has no integrity. If she wants to not have kids, have fun and party in Cabo it’s actually Ok for her to admit it publicly.
* her image is completely PR-driven. Never has so much been made of so little
* she has been made out to be a role model, when she isn’t
* she has the dept of a shallow puddle and has no interesting thoughts on anything going on around her
I love her Bob in that first pic with David S. It would look great on her now.
This story sounds like BS to continue selling this “secret” wedding story. New angles are needed since both the tabloids and Jen’s PR can no longer ride the Brange coattails. I agree Jen got famous on her on due to friends and her hair.
However TV fame can only take you so far once the show is done. Most famous TV stars never transitioned to the movies or had fame apart from their TV show. She continued to keep her self in the headlines by using the “wronged cheated on wife” PR. The more magazine covers she was on, the more female fans she picked up and the more movie roles she would get as well as commercial deals.
Now that she is married to Justin and her narrative has changed, it will soon be evident that she won’t sell many magazine covers or be the woman that other women project their insecurities onto. Most of her fans were deeply invested into the Brange triangle and now will have nothing to “fight on Jen’s behalf” for.
Now it’ll be all about is she preggers? Are they getting along? Are they fighting about east coast, west coast… is he seeing Heidi Bivens on the sly while in NY? Don’t worry, they’ll think of something.
@Original T C, “ride the Brange coat tails”…. WTH? Talk about stretching! Why must you, JP fans, constantly bring them, JP’s, into an Aniston thread? Who’s riding who’s coat tails?! Something to think about, dear…..
Judd:
Nice try but logic is not going to cut it here. See, it goes like this: The JPs are royalty, They are like the sun in the sky. Jen is riding on their coat tails by ever having been married to Brad. In fact, she was already coat-tailing the future JPs even before they got together. Now she is coat-tailing them by being an actress, getting married, breathing, tanning (see sun in the sky above).
Maybe she and Justin had a deal that no one either one of them had sex with would be invited? Just speculating.
It’s fascinating to me how many actors never see or speak to one another again after a film or TV project ends. They even refer to it as a divorce. An actor told me that’s why it helps tremendously to be as shallow and superficial as possible in the entertainment business. Use ’em and lose ’em?
In promoting Friends, Aniston did a brilliant job of playing up how lovey-dovey-touchy-feely OMG-so-close! she was with the whole cast. Especially the guys (the era of “Girl Power – yay!” was weird & contradictory).
I can recall at least one RS interview in which Jen’s “spontaneous” on-set massages & platonic boy-groping would have been OTT even among undergrad drama students, but it was still impressive. If DS really bought it, he sadly underestimated Aniston’s genius for PR. Should he want to continue weeping into his artisanal beer at an overpriced restaurant, if he’s buying, I’ll be happy to sympathetically pat his shoulder & say “there, there – oh, that 2-faced b1tch!”
