Jennifer Aniston sat down for an interview with Yahoo last week. The interview was conducted by Bobbi Brown, as in the makeup line woman. The piece is surprisingly long. And deep as a puddle. To be fair to both of them, I think the goal/vibe of this interview was just supposed to be about beauty, makeup, hair and style. As it turns out, Bobbi Brown is a huge fan of Aniston and Aniston in turn kisses Bobbi’s ass. Bobbi starts out complimenting Aniston’s style and Aniston says it’s “just called laziness.” Yawn. You can read the full piece here and here are some highlights:
Aniston’s style confessions: “This is my secret: The trick to T-shirts is I that I usually tailor them. Which is silly, but it works. Or you just have to find the perfect one. James Perse has really great T-shirts and tank tops, Theory is great for T-shirts and basics, and for jeans, I have these Genetic jeans that they don’t even make anymore. I take the pockets off of Hudson jeans, because I like the fit, but not the pockets. Helmut Lang does a good skinny jean, too. And I wear Saint Laurent jackets.”
Aniston shills Living Proof: “Have you discovered the Restore Mask yet? That’s a game changer. I do it every Sunday because I do highlight my hair. The one thing with hair, as we get older, is it doesn’t necessarily react as beautifully as it used to when we were in our 20s, which I never knew. Did you know that, that hair ages?… It loses weight.”
Aniston’s aging secret is Greek genes: “My dad is 100 percent Greek; he turned 81 and he barely has a wrinkle. And neither does my grandmother, who was 95 when she died. But it’s also just water, drinking a lot of water, using really nice good products for your face. Don’t overproduct, that’s the other thing. Getting proper sleep is always important.”
Food/diet: “I have a Greek salad in front of me, but I also indulge. Oh my god there’s a balance. I just had a bagel. I usually give myself bread on the weekends, but really, my body doesn’t love carbs. These days, if I was being super picky, I would love to drop 5 pounds. That is just where I have always been really comfortable at about 110 to 113 pounds. But it is harder at this age.”
Plastic surgery: “There is also this pressure in Hollywood to be ageless. I think what I have been witness to, is seeing women trying to stay ageless with what they are doing to themselves. I am grateful to learn from their mistakes, because I am not injecting s**t into my face. No honestly, I see them and my heart breaks. I think, ‘Oh god if you only know how much older you look.’ They are trying to stop the clock and all you can see is an insecure person who won’t let themselves just age. I also have a fiancé who will put a gun to my head if I touch my face in any way.”
Aniston does lasers: “There are also so many things that women can do today with technology in terms of LED light therapy, good lasers that tighten the muscles, and massages for your face—and don’t forget great creams. I think that’s the route to go. I also understand that age is kind of awesome. I am fortunate enough to know women like Gloria Steinem, who I think is one of the most stunning women on the planet, and doesn’t touch her face. Diane Keaton, Annette Bening, all of these fabulous fearless women who are flawless, they embrace it! You know, to each their own; I don’t judge it if you do it, but sometimes I wish I could beg the people I know, who I am very near and dear to, to not touch their face.”
First of all, she’s totally talking about Courteney Cox, correct? Aniston brings it up twice – that there are women close to her that she wishes would stop messing with their faces. I’m thinking it’s Courtney. Because what other woman close to Aniston really messes with her face? For all of her faults, Chelsea Handler does not Botox. Neither does Jennifer Meyer. It’s totally CC. Aniston judges CC’s face (as do we all).
As for: “I also have a fiancé; who will put a gun to my head if I touch my face in any way…” Gurl, has he seen your original nose? But I guess that doesn’t count if it happened before him? And she’s confessed to doing Botox once or twice, but she’s never been all Nicole Kidman about it. One theory I have though – she’s gotten collagen lip injections on-and-off for the past five years. Nothing crazy, nothing overboard, but it’s just something I’ve noticed.

Shade and lies.
^Truth.
“Shade and Lies” would be a great name for a reality show starring Jennifer Aniston , Kim and Khole “Ass of Lies” Kardashian
Or indeed for Bobbi Brown’s 94th iteration of the ‘Ultimate Nudes’ palette…..I succumb every time, blast it.
Yup.Aniston and Handler complete each other.
Yup, that’s about all she’s got. Empty, bland and boring.
FACE OF LIEZ!
i can’t believe she believes i believe that
Shade and lies indeed. Plus chelsea handler does botox and fillers- are you kidding me? I used to watch that female ensamble improv comedy show she used to be on….what? 10 or 15 years ago and chica looks NOTHING like what she did then. Hell, she barely looks like the same person that started on her own show she has currently.
Exactly. Shade and lies, zero substance.
Plastic surgery or not , she’s still looks way better than jolie pas.
Blah, blah, blah.
Since you bring her up & are obsessed with her, Angelina is beautiful with feminine features ( full lips, big eyes, high cheekbones, small nose)
Jen has masculine features & resembles Fabio & Dustin Hoffman (huge fat nose, thin lips, flat face, bad skin) She is average looking, AJ is not & will never be called average or homely.
And Angelina is younger yet has a much more interesting life to talk about. She would never do so many interviews about her beauty routine.
She has her UNHCR work to talk about, the schools she has had built, the amazing work she does……not her hair style.
I don’t get why it is an insult nowadays to say that a woman looks like a man. What are you, twelve?
Flat face may be ugly to you, but is it ‘masculine’ ? Cause I wouldn’t necessarily look for a guy with a “flat face”…. Cheekbones are good on men too
Why don’t you just say she’s ugly instead of insisting she’s masculine? Her body certainly isn’t masculine!
@ Dea: WORD. and thank you for saying.
Lol! I’m getting the popcorn for this one.
You mention Jolie Pas. You mean the film company that Angelina has, that is producing to films for a major HW studio within a couple of months of each other. I mention this because it got me thinking about Echo films, you know the production company that Jennifer Aniston has had for 8 years but has produced fvck all apart from a lifetime movie.
no i meant jolie pas as in pretty not
Wrong Angelina is better inside and out.
jonB.. you are trolling baiting for a fight.. When you have to bring up Angie or Brad in every thread regardless of it being about them
They win.. and are winning.. all the time.
@jonB – no i meant jolie pas as in pretty not
————————————————————————————————
LOL. Yes genius I know that’s what you meant but I was making the point that Angelina has more talent, drive and intelligence in the tip of her little finger than your idol Jennifer Aniston has in the whole of her botox ridden and plastic surgery shaped body.
Aniston is just really a glorified Avon Lady now as well as a major league laughing stock now.
“A major league laughing stock”? Seriously?
I would have to agree on that last bit, sorry HappyMom :/ Can you name the last GOOD movie Jennifer Aniston has acted in that was good coz she was in it? Yeah, me neither. She seems to get more and more desperate with every role…like she has to bust her tits out in order to be taken seriously or some shit! *SMH* I was never her biggest fan on Friends, never quite understood how anyone bothered casting her in movies time after time, her acting is always the same character, pretty painful to watch.
@Lisa-I’m not an Aniston fan-but it seems to me that the majority of people (who don’t really follow celeb gossip) like her. I agree her films are dumb, she’s an airhead, blah-blah-but I think “laughing stock” is totally overstating.
I don’t know if she is a “laughing stock”..
but I think when even you loyal fans are saying they are tired of hearing about your hair and health routine you have to change it up a bit. I get she is promoting her products, but IIRC she has a movie releasing in a few weeks. And yet she has said nothing about that. I wonder how powerful she could be if she devoted as much time and research in her Production company and career. But we focus on the things we are interested in. Maybe she missed her calling
I don’t think the general public thinks of Jennifer Aniston as a laughing stock. I actually think that the general public might even prefer her to AJ. I know I do. It’s just on this site that we’re inundated with the Brangeloonies.

Jennifer Aniston reached the ‘Laughing Stock’ level of celebrity when she reveled her insecure desperation by agreeing to do that NUDE “GQ” cover in December 2008. The link below is to an article about Aniston’s December 2008 “GQ” cover–and a picture of that nude cover–at “EW” (Entertainment Weekly) online, written by Mike Bruno on December 11, 2008.

Here is a slide-show found at “GQ’s” online site of Jen’s retro ‘Playmate of the Month’ (Hi! I’m Bambi, and my favorite things are lying on the beach in Cabo drinking margaritas with my circle of girl friends!) photo shoot.

@HappyMom: When you compare the kind of comments Aniston got 8 or 9 years ago to the kind she gets now, I don’t think laughing stock is a stretch. She dragged the pity party out way too long and people got sick and tired of her.
Guys-if you asked the average, People magazine reading person their opinion of Aniston they are just not going to have this level of awareness or scorn. Most people would say “oh she was on Friends, was married to brad Pitt, she makes romantic comedies, she has pretty hair and a great body.” All I’m saying is “laughing stock” is a total reach.
@Janet-
I am always a little bit amazed and confused by claims that JA has prolonged public pity somehow. Granted, I don’t follow this much, and rarely comment on the supposed triangle, but it seems to me tabloids dredge it up every now and then for a juicy headline to sell copies. Perhaps publicists give it a nod of approval, but I think none of the three perpetuate it themselves, save for an oblique interview by BP and JA individually and not contemporaneously. Anyway, it really is all very inconsequential.
@Dinah, who wrote: ” I am always a little bit amazed and confused by claims that JA has prolonged public pity somehow.

I’m not trying to be snide in any way at all with you, honest … but I am always surprised a lot by comments from people who claim not follow the triangle much, but comment about the ‘claims’ of others who obviously do and have followed the triangle. Most of the ‘claimers’ here could post references to back of their claims just from causal observance. Granted, there ‘have’ been, and are still, instances of Tabloids printing/fabricating Triangle stories for hits and sales. But there are magazine Covers/articles that Jen’s PR guru ‘had’ to have approved, if not Jen herself, where the Brad or Jolie-Pitt card was played. The cover that floats to the top as I type this is the February 1, 2010 “People” magazine cover titled “Jennifer Aniston – 5 Years After Brad.”

Want to see what a ‘really’ good PR story looks like? Read the article associated with the “Jennifer Aniston – 5 Years After Brad” cover title. The “source” and “good friend” with so much detail are both Steve Huvane, Jen’s PR guru. I had completely forgotten that Jen hooked up with Bradley Cooper ‘and’ Gerald Butler in 2010.

Jon B. You know something is wrong when you even bring up Angelina in George Clooney articles to drag her. You ALWAYS have to bring her up. You’re totally obsessed.
PFLAG Costa Rica
Guys, don’t feed the troll.
OMG – someone pointed out in another discussion that JonB ALWAYS brings up Jolie. There was kindof a hissy fight about it. Now I get it!
What does AJ have to do with anything? She is the most beautiful woman in the world IMHO – and she’d never give an interview like this! It’s funny to even think about.
LIBERTY where are you?
Well not having any kids helps…kids are wonderful, but they can be stressful and that can age you. Our first baby was colicky and it was a difficulty pregnancy and delivery. In pictures, by the timer our second son arrived two years later, both me and my husband looked about 10 years older! lol
she almost had me on the Restore – was going to try it
then i realized she’s schlepping it
nevermind!
And has he seen her original chin too? I think she may have had more than one nose job. I watched Horrible Bosses on the big screen and her botoxing was very noticeable. It looked really bad.
Chin reduction seems like it would be such a painful recovery. Can’t imagine paying someone to cut bone off of my face. Cartilage shaved off the nose – I’d consider that.
She had one nose job in the early 90s and then admitted to having another to “correct a deviated septum” in the 00s.
Oh come on, a deviated septum correction doesn’t change the shape that much. They *all* say “to correct a deviated septum” if the tabloids notice they’ve had a nose job. Its *always* a ‘deviated septum’. Deviated septum happens to be code for nose job in Hollywood. Deviated truth, is more like it.
Sal, if it’s truly for a deviated septum, it shouldn’t change the exterior shape of the nose at all. If the septum is so severely deviated that it affects the exterior shape of the nose, that’s beyond deviated septum and into malformation requiring a correction. I had a deviated septum corrected, and one of my concerns was that it would not affect the shape of my nose.
So, if she had a deviated septum corrected and her nose was suddenly different… it was a nose job, plain and simple.
Oh, I absolutely agree that it was a second nose job. That’s just what she had to say about it.
I had a deviated septum corrected and it didn’t change the exterior appearance of my nose.
The week after the surgery was pure hell. It took about a month or so before I could tell myself the agony was worth it. But now I’m breathing better through my nose than I can ever recall. So in the end, it was worth it.
I’ve had two deviated septums and one changed the shape of my nose. Whatever it’s HW everyone has had something done Even Jolie!
https://hollywoodahole.wordpress.com/2014/07/21/angelina-jolie-plastic-surgery-nose-job/
STOP. You can look at my previous posts – I’m a big fan of Jolie and not a fan of Aniston, but I highly doubt she’s had actual plastic surgery, like nose job, chin shaving, etc.
Angles, lighting, makeup, aging, and facial expressions all change how a person’s face looks.
If you look at most young pictures of Angelina Jolie, it looks completely obvious she’s gotten at least a nose job and maybe some other stuff too, but the link I posted provides powerful examples why it’s just differences in makeup, angles, etc..
I also think Jennifer is pretty natural.
“I also have a fiancé; who will put a gun to my head if I touch my face in any way…”
It’s a toy gun then.
It’s that little gun necklace he wears.
Haha, totally picturing that scene in my head now!
SULLIVAN – good one!
lol
I’m sorry, Justin will do what, when you do what????? Hahahahahahaha. Does he not know that ship sailed a long time ago? How does he account for his Ken doll make over? What about your nose(s)?
You got to my comment first- nothing to say, just long and continued laughter. Actually I do have something- on one of her Aveno commercials, she almost seems to be having trouble speaking, she’s so puffed up with fillers. Why do celebs feel compelled to lie about this sort of thing?
Not only that but it’s blurred so bad, you can’t even make out any parts of her face. Its a tan fleshy smear with “great” hair, 2 eyes and a mouth that barely moves.
Right? Why say anything at all?
Justin doesn”t want her wasting any MORE money on lost cause like her face, so of course he’d become deadly violent if he believed that frivolous spending would cut into his skinny girl jeans budget or abiity to purchase more human teeth- it’s just good sense.
This vapid, vapid woman. Can she ever discuss anything even remotely substantial? Ever? Every single interview Barbra Streisand, Jr., alias Funny Face does always involves her looks – hair, wardrobe, diet, or anything directly or indirectly related to whatever product she is schlepping. Babs Jr. has all the depth of a sandbar.
And please, spare me the “leavin’ my face alone” BS. A couple of years back (give or take) this woman’s face was so bloated from either botox or fillers that she resembled an inflated emergency slide raft from a Boeing 737. Funny Face definitely “does” her lips, as earlier photos show her to have extremely thin, shapeless lips. And, the nose….the nose knows, that’s how it goes.
I suspect she was indeed referencing (shamelessly calling out) Courteney Botox. Some friend. For God sake, if it is Courteney she’s referring to, could she not tell Ms. Botox in private? And speaking of Courteney, it really is a damn shame what she’s done to her face. She was, in my humble opinion, one of the most strikingly beautiful women in Hollywood in the late 80s/early 90s. Go on Youtube and search “Courteney Cox Dream On”, where she guest starred in an episode of this old series in 1993, I think. God, she was just a knockout. Courteney has a very frightening and unhealthy fear of aging…and being in the Hollywood shark tank, those frears and phobias are obviously worsened to the max.
As for Babs, Jr./Funny Face…it’s been said here by many, many times. If it weren’t for her marriage to Pitt and Huvane as her whore manager, she would have slipped into post (overrated) sitcom oblivion.
It’s an interview for yahoo; you expected a comment on Gaza?
Not to mention she’s being interviewed by Bobbi Brown, makeup artist. I don’t think politics and the Mid-East issues are going to be real high on the list of topics for this interview.
“Gurl, has he seen your original nose?” LMAO! Wow, shading CC, just makes it crystal clear what kind of person JA is…I would NEVER shade a close friend to anyone, and she is doing it in the press! Not cool!
I think Cox would have preferred you tell her in person instead of shading her in print for all to read. “Uncool.”
+1000000
How embarrassing to be 45 & the only thing to talk about is your looks. She has nothing else going on in her life to talk about.
No great trips, no great passions, no great film roles. Just her hair & body. What a dull person she is.
How are her fans not bored by her?
Me thinks the fan base/demographic she appeals to out there don’t have a lot going on in the mind department, either. I’ve watched her in interviews, and my God, she really spends the entire time talking about nothing…and the audience laps it up and applauds. Boggles the brain.
True, but, in all honesty, I’d rather have Jen talk about something she seems moderately savvy about. When talking about absolutely every other topic imaginable, she displays the intellect of a rotten apple. Let’s not forget this was the woman who was left in awe by watching John Mayer thinking thoughts. I legitimately think I’ve had more intelligent conversations with my dog.
This is an honest question–over the years, I’ve read about how all of her fans say that she is *so talented*. Now, talent is in the eye of the beholder. I don’t think she’s talented, and I’ve tried to watch a fair amount of her movies to see that talent (and I’m at my grandma’s, who has cable, and all FXX has been doing for the past few weeks is play ‘The Bounty Hunter’,and that movie she did with Adam Sandler over and over)–I don’t see it.
My question is this–if she IS so talented, and I’m just the dummy who doesn’t like comedy films (and I honestly do not like any of the comedy films/tv shows that have been coming on since the nineties), then why hasn’t she ever been nominated for her comedic work? And I’m talking about movies.
I mean, she was on an insanely popular tv show for TEN YEARS. She won an Emmy and a Golden Globe for her role as Rachel. And she is popular, gossip wise and entertainment wise (E! news has been talking about her wedding/relationship a lot). And we all know that the awards shows will give out ‘false’ nominations–like when Angelina was nominated in the comedy/musical section of the GGs, when she was in a romantic/thriller movie.
I’m honestly curious–how is it that the GG people haven’t ever nominated her for any Golden Globes for her film work? I’m not even saying that she has to win–but she’s never even been nominated. Not for any major award outside of tv–and the awards that she wins now are those PR bought ones—like the MTV Best Dirtbag award.
Any thoughts? Because if Scarlett Johanssen can be nominated for MULTIPLE GG awards…..
All great questions. I’ve been asking them for years, with no answer. I can only conclude that I’m right–she is not talented. Or interesting. Or clever. Or anything.
“My Fiance will put a gun to my Head” reminds me of the Elaine’s quote from Seinfeld
(Fiancé segment). Fiancé Woman: I wonder what happened to my fiancé, I know he’s here somewhere, Ellen have you seen my fiancé?. Lady: He’s upstairs. Fiancé Woman: Are you going upstairs?, tell my fiancé I’m looking for him, I have lost my fiancé, the poor baby. Elaine: Maybe the Dingo ate your baby. :Fiance Woman What?. Elaine: The Dingo ate your baby.
Ha! I loved that episode! Elaine Benes, my forever girl crush.
A receptionist friend who works at a plastic surgeon’s office in Beverly Hills told me , that when some stars say they don’t use Botox, what they aren’t saying is that they are actually using Another filler,with a different name. 🙂
You’re right – there’s Dysport
Nice imagery there Jen, most amusing.
🙁
Yes,
It’s good to know that she is learning so much from her good friend Gloria Steinem…. 🙁
Yes, he must really love her a lot if he would threaten her life. So romantic.
Yeah, not a fan, but she does have a face that looks her age, and I think that’s a great thing. It’s one of Goop’s only redeeming features, too.
Round-up
~ I’m still shilling my hair products. It makes your hair look like mostly extensions.
~ Yes, I’m still engaged.
~ I’m still shilling Smart Water. It stops wrinkles don’t you know.
~I still can’t admit I’ve had cosmetic enhancement. Botox keeps me from making that cute Rachel face. All my work would dry up.
~I’m still boing as f$ck.
I think she looks good for her age, and it’s nice to look at a celebrity who hasn’t completely and totally messed up their face. I hope she doesn’t cave into the pressure and get a face lift one day.
I try and avoid her posts as the majority are mostly tabloid drivel. But these are words coming out of her mouth, so, there is no doubt about their veracity. She really should think before she speaks as sometimes it is just too much.
Her “fiancé” does not have a name (so I guess she can trade him in for another one and not have to bother with acknowledging him by name either) and is apparently prone to violence over something so silly and that she has said she has done (and is probably still doing) in any case. (I know she is trying to make a joke, but it is a really bad attempt and a really bad joke). And what if she wanted more done..isn’t it her choice anyway? And what is she going to do about his “tweeking and tweezing” and tanning and other things he has done to himself. She is shading her own friends (CC, Handler and others) and saying how much better off she herself is (some ego).
Both she and said fiancé seem to have nothing to say about anything but the superficial –clothing, hair (dyed and extensions), body. Granted, that is what this interview was about, but that is what ALL her interviews are about.
She is a total airheaded bimbo. Brad has nothing on her.
Dont forget the flip flop hate….but is nice to know that men have the final say in what a woman does or does not do to her body with violence and is ok. With all the domestic abuse going on lately is cool to use that as a joke. Thanks for the cosign Jen. Courtney is somewhere shaking her head about the shade she just got. If anything she should have kept that part to herself we all know who she’s talking about, Some friend she is. Tell her in private not in the media…girl code no no.
She’s full of sh_t!
She didn’t only have a couple of nose jobs, she also had lip injections and a boob job in addition to fillers and botox. And don’t forget about her fake blue contacts she’s been sporting forever and the weaves and extension.
I have no problem with women going under surgery or fillers or botox to enhance their beauty or if that makes them happy but don’t deny it and shade other people if you did the same thing.
And her boyfriend sounds like a winner. What an idiot.
If a woman or man elects to undergo plastic surgery or any other type of cosmetic enhancement/procedure, fine. Just OWN IT, don’t blatantly lie and deny it and subsequently insult the intelligence of the public.
And Justin Theroux has always given me a major creep vibe. Someone above said “Ken Doll” and that’s him. Don’t know the man (of course) but there’s a very sketchy vibe from this guy that I get. He wears as much mascara as Jennifer does…sometimes even more. It doesn’t take a brain surgeon to comprehend that he’s signed on to Jennifer for increased exposure and opportunity.
well he is best friends with creepy Uncle Terry, the company you keep…
Your comment nailed it. It’s all a bunch of lies & she has had just as much work & upkeep as the women she shades.
What fake blue contacts?? I always thought she naturally had blue eyes?
Phony couple.
I think the more she opens her mouth the more people realize exactly why Brad Pitt left her.
It also says a lot about Justin Theroux and how desperate he is too make it in Hollywood, that his edgy, aging hipster, pseudo-intellectual self is willing to endure the drivel that this vacuous airhead constantly spews.
Maybe the fact that they are together just show that Mr. Intellect is not the brainy guy everyone likes to claim he is. And please spare me the he wrote a script.. Hell every waiter in Hollywood has written a script. And your family being intellects or journalist don’t mean that you are a chip off the old block. Seriously why is this man getting all this hype because of his last name.
They are obviously on the same superficial page.. A perfect match in brains and talent.
I think she and her “fiancé” are perfectly matched. I really do. She is the one that is well known and she finally has someone who “needs” her and I think she desperately wants to be needed. The other men she had in her life were famous on their own, had lives and careers and did not “need” her fame at all and probably just got bored and lost interest and ran.
He can live in NYC and hang with his friends and family and visit LA, stay at her houses, show up at events with her, take the required Cabo vacations and they are both fine with that. I think they will eventually get married as he has no choice as she is what he also needs to get his career going full force. They seem to believe in the same things, superficial as they are and maybe that is what will carry them forward. They don’t challenge each other or inspire each other to do better and that is also what they both seem to want. Yes, perfectly suited to each other.
I wish them the best!
Jen2 – you nailed it.
I wonder why Angie didn’t get a Star cover like Gwyneth.
I thought this as well.
Th contrast between to 2 women is so vast, they are polar opposites.
I like Jen’s movies, mostly Office Space and Along Came Polly. I think she has a good sense of comedic timing.
But she really should choose her words with more care. “loves me as I am” says the same thing without it being so darn offensive.
In regards to the fiancee pointing a gun at her head, isn’t this the same woman that did a PSA against gun violence after the Newtown shooting. God she’s a moron. But what can you expect from a woman who once said that the funniest thing that she had ever seen was a picture that a fan sent her pointing a loaded gun at Angelina Jolie. Though I really didn’t like her before, when I heard that she made that comment in an interview, that’s when I grew to really, really dislike her.
Exactly……a throwaway remark that is actually an extremely inappropriate one. She might as well have said he’d stomp her with his equally butch motorcycle boots. What a pair of empty-headed twerps.
“”Aniston also says a cartoon in which she is pictured pointing a shotgun at Jolie after the actress suggested they meet was one of the ‘funniest things’ she had ever seen.””
Yeah. Aniston is just full of laughs…and full of herself and sh*t.
Wait, WHAT?! Where did you read that? If true, that’s seriously f-ed up.
@OhDear …… It is true, it was in her Vogue interview when she also said Angelina was sooooooooooooo uncool.
The same year she named Knox & Zahara in an interview. creepy to be talking about your ex’s kids in interviews.
@OhDear
Here is the quote:
“……She asks me if I ever saw a cartoon that appeared in the New York Post a couple of years ago that depicts Aniston talking on the phone in her kitchen. The bubble over her head says, HI ANGELINA…I DECIDED TO TAKE YOU UP ON YOUR OFFER OF A “SIT-DOWN TALK.”…In the drawing, Aniston is loading a shotgun, and there is a copy of Vogue sitting next to her. (The cartoon was inspired by an interview I did with Jolie for this magazine in January 2007 in which she said she would welcome the opportunity to “sit down” with Aniston.) Someone sent Aniston the cartoon (“the funniest thing I’ve ever seen,” she says),…..”
http://www.vogue.com/magazine/article/jennifer-aniston-prime-time/#1
Thanks for the information! Wow, that’s… wow.
She does seem to have avoided the weird fillers that so many women seem to get, when they get that strange puffy but hard looking face. She’s had work done I’m sure, but it’s been pretty natural looking, I think.
Oh no she has not. I remember a couple of years ago when everyone was saying she looked exactly like a chipmunk. The fillers have settled down since then.
Or maybe she stopped using them!
When is their wedding? I don’t see a deeply in-love vibe between these two, in photos, …but I don’t know much about them really.
Francis
You’d enjoy coverage of this couple in Grazia I think. It’s like the miracle that occurs when you whip egg-whites….a giant meringue, of breathless avidity (is that a word?) lasting for a good six months and based on nothing at all. Months of imaginary wedding details, then months of certainty re separation, and it’s probably back to wedding plans by now. Can’t blame the couple for it, but by ‘eck they generate some godawful ‘journalism’ through being rather pedestrian.
(Needless to say I read Grazia only for in-depth political/skincare analysis) 😉
They’ve been dating for what, three years, now? She’s a shallow narcissist who thinks nothing of throwing her friends under the bus to make herself look good, and he’s a creeper friend of “Uncle Terry” — classic pairing. Her relationships all seem to be manufactured and this one is no different. She’s like a female version of George Clooney.
My friend sent me an interview that their apparent wedding planner did–here it is:
http://www.hellomagazine.com/brides/2014072520113/jennifer-aniston-wedding-planner-details/
The wedding planner, Kevin Lee (who apparently planned her and Brad’s wedding) said they’re getting married ‘by the ocean’ (read: Cabo), and it’s going to be in the country (read: the little town right outside *Cabo*), and it’s a ‘traditional wedding with a modern twist’, and it’s ‘vintage style i.e. with greys, comfortable and earthy tones’.
I honestly have no clue if this is true, and I haven’t read any denials. So we’ll see.
Courteney Cox looks so bad now. It breaks my heart, she was such a beautiful woman.
Jennifer´s nose job (officially) falls under the category “medically necessary rhinoplasty”. Many people really need this procedure!
Altrough it seems to be just an excuse for most famous women. There comes the point where a famous woman with a big, curved nose needs a rhinoplasty for medical reasons … thank god after it the nose is smaller, slimmer and straight? Pure luck 😉
And after the nose your long chin needs minor surgery too because … whatever excuse you will find. Best example is Queen Letizia of Spain. Beautiful woman before, beautiful now but with new nose and chin. Total unnecessary
With the exception of nosejobs, most facial cosmetic surgery is subtle and hardly noticeable.
Unfortunately in Courteney’s case it appears as if they used actual plastics.
Jenn’s Mediterranean ancestry and diet absolutely help to slow the effects of aging and exposure to sunlight.
…and laser treatments.
About fillers, in Marley and me, her face looked weird the whole movie, and she did something to her nasolabial folds, they were really deep set and stood out very much a few years ago, nowadays they do not seem that pronounced.
Yes – she got fillers a few years ago but I think she’s saying Justin will put a gun to her head if she does it again. So she hasn’t done it recently and I think she looks really good. She’s aging really well and I don’t think she’s using any fillers. She did it for a while and now she’s done.
The Gloria Steinem comment is pretty funny though. I wish Aniston would take a year and go to college! She just sounds so clueless. Gloria Steinem was also a fashion model in her early 20’s before becoming an activist, so she’s the rare kind of person who looks amazing without surgery. Aniston does not have that kind face.
This entire interview is ‘filler’. But then, Yahoo, so, yeah.
I think she said “my fiance” because he is so famous now we will automatically know who she is talking about.
The thing about her shading her “friend” is that statement left it open. I saw a few of her loyal fans comment and even they said they thought of Courteney.. if it is not Cox then she is still talking about a close personal friend. And the underlying thing about her comment is the implication that she is the better of the two. that she is above injecting sh** in her face..
the gun to the head thing is juvenile it was intended to sound romantic. But she doesn’t know how to do sexy in an interview.. beautiful eyeballs. Justin has a lot of tats.. hardly someone to talk to anyone about changing their body through outside means. It also makes him sound controlling even if that was not the intent; just like when she didn’t go topless in that Wonderbust movie because Justin wouldn’t like it. She seems to be trying to do her version of Goop and Blake and Jessica.. trying to be the voice of healthly body, hair and whatever. I think she is in good shape. Looking at her face on the big screen however is an eyeopener. This is a woman that asked the producers of a film to photoshop her more in the film because she didn’t like how she looked in the dailies.
She has always been passive aggressive. Always sneaking in a shady comment then acting all innocent like her words were taken out of context.. A claim her fans make to this day to justify why she has not done any real in depth interviews. All her interviews are now about her health routine and done by friends or asskissers.
just another day in the vapid world of perfect Jenny Wenny..
.
I do wonder if she’ll be called out for it. That would be interesting, and her response. She does have two responses for stuff like this–she’ll either ignore it, or say that it was taken out of context (like you said), and pretend like she didn’t just shade someone. And she does it a LOT.
Just like when she called Vogue out for ‘going tabloid’ when they put the ‘Angelina was uncool’ comment on the cover, after she was asked about it on Oprah’s show.
1. She said it. It’s HER quote.
2. They are a BUSINESS, trying to SELL MAGAZINES. She just gave them a lot to work with.
3. She tried to pretend like she had ZERO idea that it was going on the cover–when she knew about it, and approved it. She just tried to back off of it when Oprah asked her about
it.

If you can’t take the heat, stay out of the kitchen. If you can’t name names, or don’t want to name names, especially about something as personal as plastic surgery (the way that Courtney’s doing it–she’s not doing it because she wants to look better for her age, she’s doing it because she’s scared of being considered old/not hot and wants to be hot, not ‘hot for her age’) then don’t say it. End of.
Name dropping ahoy! But I notice she refrained the names of the great women she knows who overuse doctor’s help… hey all her friends are famous she just as well name them!
What a blatant commercial she is doing here for the beauty brands she lives from.
She has to say that she does not do much to her face or uses anything artificial because she has to protect her branding. Now even the boyfriend participates, mmmmh.
I was not going to even participate in the thread, but I saw an opinion mentioning her eternal rival… why even opening that can of worms? let the triangle die! but some just cannot resist stirring the pot…
Exactly. Her ex husbands long time partner has NOTHING to do with this woman and vice versa.
Totally Agree with you and Ennie.
But some avid poorly educated tabloid readers/true believers in PR created faux golden couples that never were, continue to demonstrate their inability to face reality and let go of ingrained delusions.
Sad sad sad.
Apologies in advance for hijacking this discussion.
I’m a loyal reader who never comments because I’m completely lame and can’t wrap my head around the concept of an RSS feed. What’s the best/easiest way to follow comments?
I usually read on my iPad, but when I touch the RSS link in the page header, it just takes me to the podcasts app. I’ve subscribed to Celebitchy there, but nothing happens. Is there a simple, free app that will do the trick for me? And do I need some sort of external account? Because I’d prefer to skip that step if possible. What’s everyone else doing? I’m not usually so thick, but I just can’t seem to figure this one out for some reason!
Thanks everyone. 🙂
(Yeah, that’s the extent of my emoticon abilities too, lol.)
Well then we’re both blockheads. I just keep the Celebitchy page open on my cell phone and refresh it every morning! RSS doesn’t do it for me.
If you’re non-techy, I’m assuming you’re using the default web browser on your ipad? If yes, it’s Safari, and you probably do need to download an app to be able to read RSS feeds. I just googled it, and it seems like there are plenty of free ones, but also a zillion options/types so you’d have to do some research to figure out what you want (just google “safari rss feed”).
But honestly, you’re not missing much … I don’t quite understand why anyone would want to read a CB article as a RSS feed in the first place. Instead of being threaded (so my reply to your comment shows underneath your comment), an RSS feed usually sorts posts by time … so my reply, which is a day later, would be miles away from your original comment. You’d miss the context of any conversations.
So I’m with Belle, just refresh the page and skim-read to see if there are new comments.
(Just in case you’re wondering, what an RSS feed IS good for … it’s for combining different sites into one stream. You follow 3 cooking blogs? You can combine those into one feed so you don’t have to check 3 different sites daily.)
Please. First of all I’m Greek (100%) and I have wrinkles. So do my parents. Genetics can only take you so far. When you hang out in the sun in Mexico for 6 months out of the year you’re gonna wrinkle…I don’t care if your dad is 100% Martian.
Also. It’s obvious she uses injectables. I call BS. Do I believe Jerry Hall doesn’t use them? Absolutely. Look at her face…theres a progression to aging and it doesnt happen all at once. Aniston is doing something more than lasers and lotions.
I’ve seen Aniston in movies in the last five years and she’s got plenty of lines, so I mostly believe her. In fact, in the scene with her and Ben Affleck, He’s Just Not That Into You, on the boat outside, she looked so much older than him in the face from all of her sun worshipping and smoking with lines and creppier eyes, etc. Although, once in the Marley and Me, she got filler in her cheeks to loo k younger for the role and it was obvious. She has let that go.
But I think calling out her good friend is not being a good friend. You can tell them privately, but this is so obviously Courtney and I find it not very nice to be so pointed . If they are good friends doing it, who would call out good friends publicly? You would make the statement more generically about actresses and their overuse of botox and trout pouts, which is Courtney’s biggest problem, and big fat cheeks because of overuse of filler or getting eyes done too much and looking hard or weird, example someone like Kenny Rogers and his eyejob.
A nose job is not surgery to make you look younger, so that has no bearing on the conversation of doing things to your face to make you look younger and failing.
Well, she is older than Ben but only about 5 years lol. I agree that I believe her but the shade on Courtney Cox is terrible. Maybe she has tried to talk to Courtney privately about it but it fell upon deaf ears?
Well saying something about it publicly, because it fell on ‘deaf ears’ is worse, imo. That’s like trying to talk to your obese sister about eating more healthy, and when she doesn’t listen, you make a big speech about it in a fast food restaurant, with her right next to you.
Uh oh. Why is she shading her bff? Did Cox reach out to Jolie again? Lmao. The last time Aniston and Cox had a fall out, Cc was giving interview on tv about Jolie’s mastectomy – calling it inspiring or something and wishing her well. I wonder what she did now to piss her bff off and have cost her loyalty card revoked? I bet it’s something shallow.
Chelsea Handler does not botox? Then where does her plastic face comes from?
JA is full of crap and about as deep as a puddle, but she does basically still resemble her twenty something self (new nose and chin aside, lol).
Wow its too early in the morning for all this ugliness I obviously enjoy a bit of snark or else i wouldn’t be on a celebrity site but I actually forget why I rarely click on a Aniston or Angelina post
It really seems to bring about the worst in some people
Have a Good Sunday!
+1
The vitriol is amazing.
Totally agree and unnecessary.
It’s necessary for them because Brad married her and won’t marry the other one.
what a silly comment, seeing as he and AJ have several children together and are more bonded for life through them than any paper bonded him and the ex-wife before, he even paid her handsomely to severe any legal and business ties, and did not drag the divorce for months or years.
I know, I forgot, too. It’s actually somewhere between sickening and scary.
Yeah – it’s really bizarre, I quite like JA, as it goes. I don’t really understand why people hate on her for basically having some success in her field and living the life she wants. So, she’s into her hair and vacations – burn her!
@Janey: she might get less snark and more respect if she was into anything besides her hair and vacations. She acts like she’s got vacuum between the ears. No wonder she keeps getting dumped. Her gigolo will stick around as long as he can use her to boost his career but eventually he’ll get tired of her like all the rest of them. Actually, I think he’s tired of her already, which is probably why they’re living a continent away from each other.
Agreed. I’m surprised there’s no one screaming about her nipples.
Ugh. FFS, . Gloria Steinem had an eye lift. IIRC, she regretted it,but she isn’t plastic surgery free.
Surely, I can’t be the only person who remembers this.
Wow , shading her friends much? I thought she was a girl’s girl and was surrounded by great girl’s girls? Who is she to be so jugemental? Here is me wanting to hear news of Courteney cox at a charity event with the Jolie-pitts. After all didn’t she talk to Brad at an event some time back. Now that would be huge gossip material. Please gossip Gods, make it happens!
So your fiancé is in charge of how you look? Please. And somehow I doubt it, since he manscapes his face, has had hair transplants, and Botox. Jennifer may not overdo it, but she DOES do it. She had a nose job, chin implant, and also breast implants (not positive about the last one). She’s done Botox. She just knows not to overdo stuff, but it’s still hypocritical. Natural aging is like Helen Mirren or Meryl Streep or Viola Davis.
I just can’t bring myself to care about these two nitwits (J&J).
HOWEVER, I can’t believe she was so obvious about Courtney Cox. I’m sure CC isn’t pleased. What a b!tch.
Jennifer is aging well but IMHO if she didn’t smoke , sunbaking , it would take 5 years off her face. I am 59 and look 45 without any procedures except using good skin care products starting at age 20. My neck gives away my true age. When I was 50 I saw a cosmetic surgeon who told me to come back and see him “when you look in the mirror and don’t recogonize yourself anymore”, and not to waste my money with these procedures. Aging gracefully is subjective and I agree with her on not going this route. Good luck to all of us with this.
I thought the CC shade–and it seemed SO obvious who she was talking about–was really low. It just seems like striking at someone’s really vulnerable area–their appearance and aging in such a superficial place as Hollywood.
Now I think CC was one of the most gorgeous women ever when she was on Friends–save for a couple years when she was a little too thin and it showed on her face. But there were some periods there were it was unreal how beautiful she was. But she has been going overboard with the Botox and, it seems, fillers. Thankfully, the last few photos I’ve seen of her, her face doesn’t look as bad as it had been. Maybe she will lay off now that she’s in a happy and, hopefully, mature relationship.
But I’d be BEYOND pissed if my supposed friend, who I supported through the lowest of the lows, made such a remark. Even if it wasn’t about her (big if), everyone is thinking it was so it’s just as bad. I mean, JA said that this friend looks horrible (and is so insecure) and she wishes she could tell them! So you won’t tell them privately but you will out them in an interview. Low. Sounds like the concern trolling we talk about–you’re not really concerned, you just want to show how much ‘better’ you are for NOT doing it.
Courteney Cox, yes, was an incredibly beautiful woman – there are many moments of her on film from the late 80s – mid 90s that take your breath away. You can still see the beauty in her face – if ONLY she would accept the passage of time and refrain from the plastic.
I agree with you 100% about a “friend” calling out a supposed friend in this manner. Simply lower than low. I’d be pissed as hell, too.
It is sad that Jen would publicly shade her friend this way, and even though Jen was considered the hot one on Friends (seemingly…I never got it), she must have looked at Courtney at the time and known she was the beautiful one. I mean, yes, beauty is subjective, we all have our strengths, but I hold my hand up and say my b.f. is model beautiful, I’m ok with that and would feel weird if anyone ever said I was prettier than her when I don’t think it to be true. Whereas Jen had plastic surgery to be considered cute at a young age, her friend has now done the same, just at a later stage in life, and she shades her. Not cool. Imagine if Courtney had ever publicly said “I liked Jen’s original nose just fine”. You’d think she would be more sensitive to her friend’s insecurity and not blab about it in a freaking interview. It kind of smacks of jealousy, plus Courtney is engaged to a younger hot British musician. For awhile Jen probably was smug about crowhead Justin, Courtney now has a hotter fiancee and Jen seems suddenly determined to get married soon again.
Jennifer looks great for her age, or for any age really. She does like the sun, but she seems to take care of herself really well in other ways. And I totally agree with her about Cox’s face. It’s tragic.
Yes, but the point IS is that a true friend would NOT call Cox out in a media interview! If Aniston had any sense of decency or loyalty (which doesn’t seem to be the case) she would tell Cox in private. Even if she didn’t mention Cox by name, everyone knows she implied it, and it was and is a simply shitty thing to do.
Oh, I’m so glad she says she won’t do fillers. Hopefully that’s a firm decision. Think Jen is so carrier-driven that she would do anything if it gets her a good part in a movie.
I haven’t noticed anything resembling collagen injections in all the years I follow her, her lips are lovely and normal..so perhaps you just don’t like her.
@Captain, who wrote: “I haven’t noticed anything resembling collagen injections in all the years I follow her, her lips are lovely and normal..so perhaps you just don’t like her.”
Do you honestly saying that you’ve never noticed Jennifer Aniston talking in a film or in an interview with a strange, pursed-puckerness, like someone had put a rubber band around her mouth? The woman doesn’t have naturally full lips. Whenever you see her with anything resembling a top lip, she’s had collagen.
Hey Emma, what do you mean by “honestly”? like I came here anonimously to lie about Jen’s lips because.. what? Well, just like I said: I like her and like her natural lips; you just don’t, so perhaps you are seeing things. Jen never had full lips, that would take away half of her charm and she knows it.
Wow she really called out her BFF? CC?! How low. Wonder how her reps will spin this..say she was misquoted?! Because even if she didn’t mean Courtney (as if!) we ALL think it’s Courtney ..crappy friend!!! She’s so passive aggressive..seems friendly and sweet but actually petty and mean spirited.
If she is called out by the entertainment media, then she’ll probably just ignore it, just like when she said ‘retard’ on the Regis and Kelly show–when she got backlash and people wanted her to apologize, she didn’t say a word. Just ignored it, and it went away. Just like this will go away in a few weeks.
Poor choice of words. I think she just wanted to make it sound how much he cares about her, bla bla bla
I think shading a friend in an interview is far worse.
Over the years, I realized that she comes off as petty, passive- aggressive and very superficial (who has not grown as a person). She is someone who holds grudges. Life is short Anniston, do some therapy and go on to do great things in life!
The back to back interviews about her weight and plastic surgery might have a motive. A week ago, the National Inquirer had a story about the Clooney up coming wedding and they stated Aniston was having facial work done to upstage Angelina Jolie and be the center of attention. I guess if you see her at the wedding and she looks more botoxed than usual, following this story, people would rule that out plastic surgery, but maybe she did get one.
I doubt George Clooney would invite the two couple for one because people and the press would be talking about the big encounter way way more than the actual wedding and I don’t think anyone would want that. Besides I think Brad and George are closer than Aniston and George. Plus all of their others actor friend will be there – like Matt Damon right so I don’t see how he would choose Jen over Brangie. Or maybe neither will be there.
Actually, George knows Anniston way longer than he knows Pitt. Ben Weiss, one of George’s closest friends, directed friends.
George might know Jen longer but that doesn’t necessarily mean they are close friends. I believe George is more friend with Brad even if they have known each other less longer. Yep that can happen Miss M.
Bitchy little backstabber. Courtney Cox stood by Aniston during the worst time of her life and this is how she pays her back?
I don’t think that she’s 100 percent natural…..every couple of years she overdoes it with the fillers. I remember a few years ago, maybe in the 2011-12 era of her life, everything from the nose down look really weird and taut….I remember I described it as a ‘plastick-y mask’ because I couldn’t figure out what she had done. She looked like she couldn’t move her lips right…it was not a good look.
But she should let up with the tanning–I don’t see how that’s fun at all for anyone. If I lay around on the beach, I’m in the shade.
And I think her Aveeno commercials look weird BECAUSE of the tanning. Because they have those bright lights on her, so then her skin looks really weird and glowy (because I know it doesn’t look like that in real life), and then her eyes are really, really BLUE. Almost electric. I don’t get why they don’t have a more natural lighting, if the whole point is that the every day people use Aveeno–I guess to make it seem like it’s more high end? Don’t know.
And I get the gun ‘joke’. Except it’s not really all that funny, just overused. I don’t get why she couldn’t just say that Justin prefers her to be natural, or, better yet, say that she prefers HERSELF to look her best, natural self. Which I think would be a lot better than saying a man wants her to do/not to do something. Like I want to lose weight because *I* want to feel better about myself–not so I can make a man happy. Big difference. But I get the way that she meant it–we all say stuff like that without really thinking about it, I think.
Sorry, but drinking plenty of water doesn’t result in you having the Lazytown limited lip movement thing that she has going, albeit, the Aveeno commercials are the only place where the stiff lip isn’t present. Money is money, I guess.
And her deluded attitude about her actual use of Botox will likely fall into the same category about her hair color. Natural brunette that’s currently a bottle blonde, lamenting about how wearing brunette wigs helps her to find her ‘character’. Really? Duck the colorist, for a start…
Her lips look a lot bigger in the first picture than the second and I don’t think it’s just the lipstick.
I don’t see where she’s mentioned CC anywhere. Am I missing something?
“I also have a fiancé who will put a gun to my head if I touch my face in any way.” Does anyone else see how incredibly WRONG on so many levels that statement is? Basically, if I don’t look a certain way who could blame him if he physically abused me? SMH.
It just illustrates Aniston’s tin ear- she likely thinks that people will be happy for her that her man insists that she never change, but it makes him comes across as controlling and she, simple, because she seemed to enjoy the ‘compliment’ instead of side-eying it.
I can’t believe she said he would put a gun to her head. That seems to be a strange comment considering all the gun violance lately. Suprised none of you mentioned that.
This reminds me of Kate Winslet saying Sam Mendes would divorce her if she ever had plastic surgery. Then again, they announced their split around the time Winslet showed up in public with a very distorted face (http://www.justjared.com/2010/02/22/kate-winslet-bafta-awards-2010/). So maybe it was true,
I just have a hard time believing Aniston’s boyfriend would care — he looks just as phony as she does (fake tan, overly-whitened teeth, dyed hair). Considering Aniston’s fake hair color, fake tan, teeth whitening, nose job(s), lip injections, and who knows what else — how much worse is a little botox? I agree with posters above – it just makes him sound like a controlling jerk.
