Aniston’s Cabo New Year

No, they didn’t borrow each other’s sandals, those are Adam Sandler’s wife Jackie’s feet. Maybe she borrowed them. I saw these pics on another site.

is it me or do Aniston and Crow look alike?

No the school opening for Oprah’s new year already happened. Spike lee and Mariah Carey were there. No jennifer.

Please don’t start the triangle thing over again. I am by no means a Jennifer fan but I’m so tired of the bermuda triangle.
Let’s leave Brad and Angelina out of this. They have their own life now and are happy together.

Let Jennifer do what she wants. Who cares as long as she’s not giving any more pity me interviews.

______________________________________________________________________That is the point of all this matter!!! She WILL continue with ‘pity me’ interviews, because she has nothing else to do! I do not care what she does, just as long as she doesn’t ivolve Angie and Brad in her little tabloid-games!!!!

I think she should just marry David Arquette in some Mormon ceremony and get it over with. She lives with them already. What a bunch of B-listers. Sheryl shouldn’t get involved with that crowd.

Courtney Cox, David Arquette and Jennifer Aniston always together. There’s something wrong with this picture.

Pitt must be so stupid to leave such an amazing angel God had given to to him!

Is David Arquette doing both Cox and Aniston ? wow, not a bad deal to be a toy boy . Anyway Aniston is closer to his age aint that right ? I always thought something was not right with that Arquette-Cox-Aniston relationship that has been going on for the past decade. something is amiss and Anistion is to be blamed.

Noone did mentioned the Jolie-Pitt’s name until you wrote a comment, did you see it?

^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Yes, Sandy left a comment before me but it was erased.

Times have changed, there is nothing wrong in letting your friend borrow your hubby for s e x or whatever. At least you can set the rules, imagine if he was having an affair with some hussy.

wtf is Chin always hanging around this couple?

Why is JA clinging on to David ?
Even Courtney doesn’t hold David so tightly.
Why is David shielding his face ? Guilty of something ?
Why does it look like JA is David’s wife instead of Courtney
why is everything looking so strange with this set of pictures ?

Poor David Says:

January 2nd, 2007 at 1:33 pm
life must be tough for David to have to hang around with a bunch of overgrown whinny women . First there was Aniston , then Laura Derm and now Sheryl Crow. tough life

*********************

David deserves to be with these kind of women, he is a dumb guy, I saw him on Leno and he really has a low IQ. He seems to be just a very regular guy, like your waiter or gasoline boy in the corner. He, he, sorry, but thats how he impressed me.

And Courtney also is very unintelligent, no wonder both she and Jennifer gets along so well.

Sorry for my rant, but these people are just so uninteresting, Im sure Brad is so glad right now that he is out of that circle.

Anyone associated with Aniston devalues their own hollywood stock and value. Now that VV is rid of Aniston, I might just consider watching his movie. The same for Arquette, Cox and Crow. No movies and songs worth wasting my sight and ear for .

Interesting to see Cox has been agressively marketing her show on Perez site. The very site that Aniston has asked her publicist to have Perez retract the liar post . So strange that all these hollywood read tabloids and place so much of their livihood with some bloggers.

Jen and Courtney both dated Adam Duritz of the counting crow.

Ayanna Says:

January 2nd, 2007 at 2:15 pm
WTF? Which one is David married to? THIS is the triangle everyone should be wondering about.
=====================================================
I normally lurk, not post in an Aniston thread, but I have to agree with Ayanna. WTH is this, she is clinging more to David than Courteney was. I know they are best friends and everything, but if I were Courteney, I would still watch out. Aniston is so vulnerable right now that she has been uncoupled from a relationship twice in two years. Unless this triangle is what they really want ….?

Good point, Stock. Perez hates Jennifer! He is one of many, for some reason, who regularly rant about how phoney, how boring, how untalented she is, how fake the relationship with Vince was, etc. Why, knowing that, would Courtney agree to advertise on Perez’ site? And they are doing so Big Time. The promo for the show was even the background “wallpaper” for the site! Hmmm….I would feel so betrayed if I were Jennifer. I guess they hope to catch the eye of gossip-lovers, no matter what it says about their loyalty to their friend. Business is business?

Seeking out attention.
This isn’t the first time she does this. Way back when she was dating VV, didn’t she carry a scarf with her everywhere she goes .. to the pub, at the airport, outside her home.

This is called insercurity or maybe she is plain guilty of trash talking the past years and have to hide away from the lies. If she is not lying.. she should be holding her head and shoulder high and proudly in view for all to see. She is definitely guilty !

Of all people, D.Arquette hiding his face? Not even a c-lister.!!!!

Look people. Jennifer can hang with Cortney and David all she likes. Why are people here getting all upset and writing all these nasty comments because Jennifer (who has not said anything here) is just walking with David… There are some filthy minds at work here. Why people insist on all this negativity I have no idea. As for Jennifer saying what she thinks hey it is a free country. She can say what she wants from time to time. I also see Angelina doing a lot of talking and a lot of glossing over things. So why can’t Jennifer do the same. As for saying she is a looser and all this other crap I disagree. She has had some ok movies out there that people have gone to see. People let us all just move on and wish all these people well. Surely we can’t be hammering on someone non stop come on man. This is getting so old. Even if she is on the B list so what. What list are you people on?

No one is aiming to be on any list. What I am reading here are opinions of readers. The one that seems to have a problem is you Susie. You cannot accept that people have an opinion and that include stating who JA is by viewing this post and her past actions.

I think Cox is cool to have a new show. Wonder why she never cast her best friend JA in it ? anybody care to enlighten ? Is it because Cox knew how terrible a dramatic actress she is ? There has been mixed review for Cox new show. Apparently, either you like it or hate it, based on the either if you like Cox & Hart or otherwise . Good luck to her.

Well there’s no escaping it. If it will make jen fans any happier, they are talking more about Jeniffer on the B&A thread than they are here, I wish I could go somewhere and stick to the subject.

What in the Hayell is Jennifer wearing? The dress is hideous but at least do ME the favor of getting some shoes that match. She is wearing shower shoes for God sake. Jenn, honey, let it go, he is SO not coming back! MOVE ON!

To Juno…. Are you with Jen all the time? You seem to know a lot about her movements and just how much time she spends with David and Courtney. Has it occurred to anyone that if this couple did not want Jen with them they would TELL HER SO… Gosh. As for you Hey Hey I do not have any problems. I just think once in a while when a bunch of people are saying such crazy things it does not hurt to try and put in a few objective comments. This bashing amazes me.

And then to this Team Jolie what are you doing here. Go back to the Brangelina page. Jen filed for divorce from Brad in case you forgot and I have a sneaky feeling Jen knows this man is gone. Let her lead her life. It is not a crime to be the ex wife or ex partner of Brad Pitt. She is not the first and by golly she will not be the last.

I don’t like Jen all that much, but they’re FRIENDS. Although she’s a bit more clingy than some, I think that she still has the right to hang out with them. I’m sure that if she truly annoyed the Coxes, they’d have already called her ass out. Some of y’all are very prejudging people. I hang out with my girlfriends and their boyfriends, but it doesn’t mean I’m messing around with their men or anything. And face it, ALL celebrities want attention, whether they claim to despise it or not.
I’m not saying that y’all need to get off her back. Trash the woman all you want. But please don’t get all up on people who don’t feel the need to hate the woman (ie: Susie). Like people say, we all have the right to express our own opinions.

Are you the Juno who used to post on Jared’s a long time ago and was getting married two years ago?

Wow. Unbelievable how much hatred tand obsession the Brangelina fans have for Jen. For what? It’s Angelina who’s drudging up all the old crap these days. Seems Angie is the one who can’t get over it, but I guess it would be hard when your public image and career have been wrecked by it like Angie’s. Jen went out with friends. Big f-ing deal. I’d rather see a celebrity covering their face than shoving their kids in front of the camera for promotion of herself or her movies.

Aniston was with VV in Las Vegas this weekend, and was reported to be lovey dovey. So they are still together!! I guess, the pics above were probably taken before the new year. A fan also was with her on her flight back from cabos, she must have flown back to LV on the Dec 31st.

If indeed its true, what would people call her now? Double triple liar????

BREAKING NEWS
Speaking of Vince Vaughn, although he and Jennifer Aniston supposedly broke off their romance, you’d never have known that from their romantic rendezvous at the Wynn Hotel this past weekend! They were seen all lovey dovey celebrating and welcoming in 2007!!!

@@@@@@@@@@@@@

Cant really call her no liar. Maybe they just hooked up? I am one who never thought they were much of anything more than FWB at the most, but even still, I wouldnt consider her a liar if she was with him for a hook up. I don’t remember her ever saying she wouldn’t still be his friend or nothing.

But no body is mentioning Angelina but you and Susie. Some people just don’t like her, and it has nothing to do with no one but Jennifer Ansiton. Some people dont like AJ, and it got nothing to do with Jennifer. Get for real ok? I personally think she’s always played the needy weenie, and I never liked how she got so much credit for being seen as the star of Friends, and all that was even before Brad.

to those jen fans -

if you take a look at the following questions (written by one of the poster ), you will see these are the similar questions which those jen fans like to use. i believe this poster is trying to give them a dose of their medicine.

Why is JA clinging on to David ?
Even Courtney doesn’t hold David so tightly.
Why is David shielding his face ? Guilty of something ?
Why does it look like JA is David’s wife instead of Courtney
why is everything looking so strange with this set of pictures ?

Oh, not Aniston again. She must be promoting something.

This much I can tell you. I will not watch any of your movie or buy your DVD.

In an alternative dimension, malibumom represents Huvane who represents Jen and here is the angle that She would have worked for the Break up and divorce-Stephen Huvane, hardworking, well chiseled, astute and intelligent hollywood agent who represens some of the hottest stars has fallen in love with Jennifer Anniston, soon to be ex wife of Actor Brad Pitt. He falls so deeply that he is willing to give up his gay lifestyle!!!! Huvane, not only her agent, but her best friend, has admitted in an exclusive interview with GQ(of course) that he has been secretly in love with Anniston since he first set her up with Brad and he regretted doing so. In fact the reason he set them up was to exorcise the grip that Jen had on his heart. When her relationship with Brad started to deteriorate, Huvane, being the gentleman that he is, didn’t act on his feelings. One night while walking on the beach in Malibu, he admitted everything to her as tears welled up in his eyes. Being the softhearted person that she is, Jen took him into her arms and held him as they both cried. You see it was Jen’s unfailing loyalty and her kindness, strength and class that attracted him to her. Her inner beauty was so awe-inspiring to him, that he had no choice, but to reveal how he felt. Jen spent some time with him because she wanted to gently remind him that she really preferred not to date at this time and she was well aware he had a life partner who would be devastated if he left. She assured him that she loved him but not the way he loved her. So after 24 months of comforting each other, she finally convinces him that the best relationship for both of them is their professional relationship. And ladies and gentleman, there you have it. No pity party, no embarrasing frat boy, just a big, well orchestrated PR stunt. See, this was a better angle than a fake relationship withfrat boy Vince. Since Huvane is her rep-no one would have known the truth and everyone would have loved Jen for being gentle and kind enough to let the man down even in the midst of her own pain!

It appears that VV has a show in Las Vegas. JA was desperate to get back with VV thus the flying back to LV on the eve to catch up with him. Witness said that VV was nevertheless not pleased to be Surprised with her showing up. VV was planning on a all girls party night out and was disappointed to have his planned messed up with JA showing up.

12/31/06 New Year Eve happenings
VINCE VAUGHN’S WILD WEST COMEDY SHOW
Presented at 6 and 10 p.m. Sunday in the Mandalay Bay Theatre, 3950 Las Vegas Blvd. South, $84.50-$123 for the 6 p.m. show, $95.50-$139.50 for the 10 p.m. show (632-7580).

He does what Courtney tells him to do. Jennifer is a clingy-type. Now that Vince is gone, she has to have someone to cling to..the Arquettes. After all, what are friends for??? Courtney is probably the only one of her friends who would not have slept with Brad if the opportunity had presented itself.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

I agree. A girl can’t go out and have a good time with her friend and her friend’s hubby without being accused of messing around with the man? David looks like he’s just bein protective. So friends can’t watch out for each other’s backs?
And to people who claim to not be able to stand this woman’s “ugly” mug; what’re you doing here then, subjecting yourself to this atrocity? There are plenty of other people to look at on this site. It sickens me to see how some people hate to see others happy. It’s weird how it’s almost a simultaneous requirement that everyone on this site must want to see Aniston ************. I don’t like her all that much; I have never seen any of her movies except for “The Break Up” (props to VV for that one), and I’m certainly not obsessed with her enough to research every “lie” she’s told, but I will never wish upon or revel in another person’s misery, except for criminals.

It’s a crime to incite violence and hate and that is what this homely ****** did-Susie you are a liar-you have been on other threads loving Jen’s dirty bathwater so go somewhere and cry or something because you are not strong enough to hang-If you can’t run with the big dogs stay your sorry A$$% on the porch!

I love Jen. Very Sad and Pathetic .

Girl, you don’t miss a beat. I love it.

Just like Vince, Jen is just holding David’s arm. Just like Vince she isn’t in a relationship. That is the reason Jen and Vince were together on New Years: they were never in a relationship in the beginning. It was all put on because of public pressure so that she wouldn’t feel inadequate in comparison to her ex husband and she dealt with her divorce. THAT IS A FACT.

I know susie, if you can’t stand the heat, get out of the kitchen.

I don’t have issue with her friendship with CC, they are friends. I just do not think it is normal that she is ALWAYS with them. Hell, she can’t live more than 2 minutes away from CC. In Malibu, it was right down the beach and in BH, it’s right down the street. That is not normal. And if David A. had any balls, he’d stand up for himself and quit acting like the 4th woman in the party.

She spent Thanksgiving with them, Christmas Eve, quite possibly Christmas and now New Year’s Eve. Why doesn’t she spend any of those holidays with her father, whom she claims she is close too. Her father that lives in L.A.? Or her brothers. It’s just not normal to not be close to one member of your family. She’s got a family chip missing.

- David has no balls
- Courteney gutsly using her friendship with JA to who*re her new show
- JA is helpless as usual, nothing new, clinging to her bff husband as her own
- JA look frumpy
- Crow look happy
- Sandler Sheridan JA probably in discussion for their next new colaboration
- wonder what it would be called ?
- how to party your way out of the blues ….lolol

Did anyone see the photo of Nick Lachey kissing Vanessa whatshername of MTV??? How would poor Jessica cope?? Really, I mean, poor poor Jessica, so humiliated when she’s fumbling around for a new man and …..

…..oooops,

Never mind, Jessica isnt Jennifer and so we don’t have to wonder how poor Jessica coped.

she won’t babysit because she’s a godmother “NOT a babysitter!” don’t you remember? Other than that she adores kids, she said so.. ;)

Among the million other things WRONG about Maniston, she is also creepier than hell. Can you say Klingon?!

why doesn’t she ever spend any time with her own family? doesn’t she have any living relatives that would set an extra plate out for her? Klingon..no doubt.

Angelina doesnt care what you think or what you would have done. so get it over yourself and get a real life will ya…..

Mia;

Never assume. It make an ass out of Mia.

Brad is gone, and will never return. Jenny needs to stand on her on if she really wants some respect. Girl drop all those girl—friends and get some real friends…..hint…..hint…..MEN. It is sad to see you with your friends man

It is the New Year, guys! Can you rest it a bit..and think nice thoughts atleast for the first week…

Aniston’s actions of late suggest she’s headed toward Michael Jacksonville. Paranoid, delusions of grandeur, unable or unwilling to act like an adult. She’s getting just plain creepy whereas she used to be just plain.

Chinnifer is creepy. I am sure one day the Arquette’s will break up. Chinnifer moves everywhere they move. Stay tuned.

Is it just possible that Aniston was wasted from partying and did not want her photo taken? She looks awful in that photo, IMHO. Next time, David should just wrap the towel around her tired looking head. Lookin r a g g e d !

Mia Says:

January 2nd, 2007 at 8:31 pm
**********Ok I read a couple posts upstairs… Since when did Jennifer even mention Brad & Angelina in any of her interviews?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~`
You are joling right?

I think that when interviewers brought it up… she wanted to let people know that she took it all in stride and was not slighted… I think she doesnt take things too seriously and is very open about things… i dont think her intention was for people to feel sorry for her. That’s why she got together with Vince.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
So it is OK to get together with someone because you don’t want people to feel sorry for you, but not because you are attracted to them or love them a la BP/AJ. IT is so wrong to be with someone with whom you share so much.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
She was just going on with her life the best way she knew how. That may have come off as not appreciating her marriage more. But Jen just likes to be happy.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Again who are you kidding?

And she’s a comedian. Comedians tend to make fun of alot of things. She was really cool about it. She didnt take it too seriously. She was never bitter about it.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Did you read the VF interview, if she was not bitter, who Was?

She just wants everybody to be happy. I think people just want to feel sorry for her and that pisses off Brangelina supporters.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
SAy What?

But if people think that Angelina is evil for hooking up with Brad, that has nothing to do with Jen. I personally still feel that it was wrong of Angelina to have a baby with Brad right after the divorce.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
How dare ANgie and Brad decide to go on with their lives after the divorce, the nerve of these two. They should have ask for your permission or maybe Jen’s
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I think she should have waited to see if Brad was the right one instead of rushing into things and trying to please herself and Brad. I think she should have thought over carefully what was going to be right for her family. How does she know that Brad is the one who will support her and her kids for life? How does Brad know that he could stick with someone like Angelina and her lifestyle and family for life? That’s something that takes time to figure out and not just rush into, especially after the turmoil that happened just before with Brad’s marriage. Brad was lookin to find a way out of that marriage so he wouldnt go back and he found it with Angelina. But having babies wih somene isn’t the answer simply beause you want children. You know… I can understand if Brad was married to Jen with kids and then they ended it and he fell in love with Angelina who also had kids. But he never had kids before, just nieces and nephews. So, rushing into somehting because you want to have kids isn’t the answer.****************************
Two years and three children later, they seem to be more in love than ever, and going strong, so what was your point again?

Nick kissing with Vanessa in public at NYC. How dare he’s flaunting his romance in public . Jessica in pain ! How can Jessica cope with this public humiliation ? hmmm. no ranting from the tabloids and moral righteous persons ???? Was Jessica not a public figure like Jennifer Aniston ?

Of course not, Jen seems to be the most sensitive person in Hollyweird. About Kate Hudson hooking up on the set of her movie with Owen Wilson, Or Ryan Philippe hooking up with his CO star? It ’s been two years and they still can’t let it go. It is as if Brad was married to all of them not just Jen. Besides, it is all about money, Angie and Brad on a cover generate big revenues.

====================

Semantic or not, she went on Oprah with the intention to mislead the public. Don’t bring the word “classy” out for her. Her sheepish face on Oprah that day has nothing classy about it. Anyway you cut it, it was a lie, Chinnocchio.

Prove what you say.

she’s like a 6 years old little girl hanging on her daddy…………….
Look at her face!
OMG pathetic indeed;
she’s almost 40

I just saw Leno tonight and George Clooney was on and he just come back from Cabo and has been there since Christmas. Jay was trying to get him to talk names in his sneaky way but he said he was just with friends. Makes you wonder if they didn’t hang out some together. I know they are still good friends and he was the producer on that rock star movie and rumor has it and he made a beeline straight to her when he walked the oscars last year giving her a big tight hug. Just wondering Cabo is not a real big place and they were there for almost 2 weeks.

ntt…..specifics please. what exactly am I suppposed to be proving? that jen smokes pot? that jen and angie lied? that jen is over brad? that brad is not a viking god? for the first she admitted that she smokes bud. for the second all you have to do is go back and read BOTH their interviews from the beginning of the drama to now, they BOTH denied denied denied then later changed their stories. third none of jen’s action seem to indicate that she still has a thing for brad (and by her actions I mean her REAL ones NOT those percieved or made up by the media or psychos). fourth look at his photos viking god he is not.
so again, i say…let brad and angie live their dream life together. let jen smoke her bud and hang with her buddies and find a man eventually. and everyone else chill. or do i have to prove that too ntt? let me know……..

Excuse me…but GC did NOT “make a beeline” to her at last year’s Oscars. GC was signing autographs when SHE walked over to him, waited until he NOTICED her and then hugged him. GC likes women not little girls.

Got her a quikie from Vince. Oh, great, ****** for fun ! what a **** !

tannifer and George C??? Noooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I will personally start the campaing !!!SAVE GEORGE C!!!!! LOL!!!!

now in a more serious note I have to say that Tannifer looks terrible poor thing, with all the money she has, and with all those talented plastic surgeons in Hollywood, she should fix her big nose and do something different with her hair because is boring already, where is a good hair stylist when you need it???LOL

and last! i hope that rumor about VV and Tannifer making out is true, I want them to be together forever, i want them to get married and maybe have kids or more dogs or whatever, I want them to be the it couple of 2007 and then go far awayyy!!!

ntt: it is the Bill Clinton school of public relations. Words mena different things in different contexts. The PR people created this “game” because if she was seen without a man, people will gossip and speculate or bore with her career. People were always asking about HER life not the movie she was trying to promote. That is dangerous when you are an actor, when people ask about YOU not the content. Imagine if your work was like that, it would be miserable and insane, you wouldn” have privacy to just “be”. NOW : Jen HAS to make a move in the right direction: get a real man, someone like her, talented, artistic, intelligent, famous or not: get SERIOUS about her career with good scripts: get serious about family: get serious about her health. Smoking cigs is all Vince gave her in realtity, she quit before they started that elaborate charade. Vince is psychological poison, a symbol of loveless self destruction and need to leave Jen alone. Jen Aniston knows who she wants to be with. That is why this game was made and she isn’t dating.

JEN JUST HAD A NUMBER ONE FILM !! REMEMBER ????? IT KNOCKED THE BEST X-MEN OFF THE TOP SPOT !!!!!!!! WENT STRAIGHT TO #1 !!!!!!!!!!!! JEN IS FINDING FILM LIFE EASIER THAN EVER. Moving from TV to film is very difficult esp. when the TV series is soooooooo popular and the actress is soooooooooo recognizable. Seriously, if people weren’t interested in her film career they wouldn’t have posted, ain’t that THE TRUTH !?!?! LOL !!!!!!

Saxas, JEN DID NOT JUST HAVE A #1 HIT MOVIE. VINCE DID, JEN ONLY TAGGED ALONG. LOOK AT ALL HER MOVIES BEFORE THE BREAK-UP -

Derailed - Never made it to the Station.
Rumor Has It - Worst movie, worst experience of her life.
Friends With Money - More like Friends without Money.

The remaining two movies are at a standstill. NOBODY WANTS TO WORK WITH HER. MAYBE COURTNEY SHOULD THROW HER A BONE AND GIVE HER A PART ON HER SHOW. Oh wait, she says will never do TV and it’s not beacuse she is “ABOVE” it. Delusions, Delusions, Delusions. RADIO, here comes Jen!!!

the #1 film was due to Vince. As usual, Jen was just along for the ride. That’s the story of her life isn’t it, as well as the story of her career. Lucky to hook up with some good people and then basked in the spotlight. Where she went off the rails was when she started to think the spotlight should only be on her. She’s getting old and if she’s not careful the only place for her will be infomercials and late nite re-runs and straight-to-DVD movies.

liars

People…. I was being sarcastic in regards to GC and JA for cripes sake. Why take it all so seriously? Also, in regards to the whole Jen lying on Oprah thing I believe my info came from what her publicist said about them breaking up between the ACTUAL filming of the show and when it actually aired. I think you guys are all idiots for bashing Jen so much and for putting Angelina on a pedestal. Here is what I believe: Jen and Brad were on the rocks. Brad met Angie, they had sparks, she was the deciding factor in his decision to end his marriage, although not the only factor. Jen wasn’t aware of Brad’s feelings for Angie and although she knew the marriage was basically over she flipped when she heard about Angelina. Always easier to blame someone else,right? So, she goes through a phase of hurt and anger (which is normal) and blabs her mouth in an attempt to hurt BP/AJ as she felt they hurt her. Brad, the fool, should have been straight with her and not tried to pretend that his feelings for AJ had nothing to do with his decisions.
Bottom Line:
Jen should have ended the sympathy thing sooner because now the tide has turned against her even though she is probably now over BP/AJ.
Brad should have been more of a man. (Yikes I bet that one is going illicit some nasty comments).
Angie should have respected their marriage (seriously come on now she basically admitted what happened, albeit in words intended to lull her fans ito believing it was an inevitable love…gag…). Also AJ should end this PR blitz she has going on in regards to their relationship. Mark my words, if she keeps it up the tide will then turn against her.
They are ALL at fault. And I wish them happiness.

Vince is ugly, way too ugly for Jen, they are really mismatched in every way. Height, size, politics. Even the way they speak is very mismatched. It is a completely fake relationship. Vaughn needs to move on, come out of the closet or get a REAL girlfriend and stop petting Jen like she is his pet.

The Unsinkable Jennifer Aniston

by Leslie Bennetts

September 2005

When Jennifer Aniston opens the door to the Malibu bungalow she’s been holed up in lately, she gives me a radiant smile and an effusive hello.

Then she bursts into tears. (WHY?!)

We have scarcely sat down in the living room, a serene little haven simply furnished with cushy white sofas and white flowers and white candles, when her face crumples. She is instantly aghast.

“I haven’t been feeling emotional lately, really I haven’t,” she wails, fluttering her hands like Rachel Green in distress, except that this time it isn’t funny.

Other than the 24-hour security detail guarding her safety, Aniston is all alone in the modest rental where she has camped out while dealing with the end of her marriage to Brad Pitt—and its devastating aftermath, which has been far worse than the actual split. The last few months have brought an endless nightmare of hurtful headlines about her soon-to-be-ex-husband, along with blatantly fraudulent stories about herself, in the tabloids and supermarket gossip magazines. Pursued around the clock by the rabid paparazzi she refers to as “ratzies,” she is ambushed even on her own deck by photographers who lurk on the beach outside her door, spying on her every move.

As she squeezes her eyes shut in an effort to stop crying, the scene provides a painful contrast with the last time we met. Little more than a year ago, I interviewed Pitt at the Beverly Hills mansion that he and Aniston had just spent two years renovating. A testament to both his passion for architecture and the couple’s hopeful vision of their shared future, the beautiful old house awaited only a baby in a bassinet to complete a picture-perfect existence.

When I left, they both walked me out to my car. Their home, its windows lit and welcoming, glowed in the twilight. As we said our good-byes, Pitt and Aniston leaned together in the driveway, arms twined around each other. Her head rested trustingly on his buff chest, still pumped up from his rigorous training to play the warrior Achilles in Troy.

They seemed the most fortunate couple imaginable—two beautiful superstars who had hit the jackpot, earning not only fame and riches but also an enduring love. Their fans had long been captivated by the romance of America’s Sweetheart and the Sexiest Man in the World, and now they were ready to begin a thrilling new chapter. Aniston’s 10-year run on Friends was ending, and she and Pitt had vowed to start a family when her stupendously successful television series was finished.

Pitt’s final words to me reinforced the impression of connubial bliss: “I’m happier than I’ve ever been.” But the ensuing months brought an onslaught of rumors that he had gotten involved with Angelina Jolie while filming Mr. & Mrs. Smith. Instead of the joyful announcement many had anticipated from the Pitts, there was only silence. The New Year began with photographs of the beautiful couple strolling hand in hand along the beach on Anguilla, looking relaxed and happy. Immediately the buzz shifted into rhapsodic re-appraisals of the state of their union.

And then came the oh-so-civilized announcement, on January 7, that Jennifer Aniston and Brad Pitt were separating—that their parting was “the result of much thoughtful consideration,” that it was not caused by “any of the speculation reported by the tabloid media,” and that they would remain “committed and caring friends with great love and admiration for one another.”

If Pitt had kept a low profile in the months to come, that might even have turned out to be true. Instead, the ominous drumroll of gossip began to crescendo as he and Jolie rendezvoused in exotic locales, still denying that they were an item. With the paparazzi snapping away, Pitt stepped into what looked suspiciously like a paternal role with Jolie’s adopted Cambodian son, Maddox.

“It was extremely hurtful to Jen that he was seen with another woman so quickly after they were separated,” says Andrea Bendewald, an actress who has been one of Aniston’s closest friends since they were teenagers.

Instead of being reviled as The Other Woman, Jolie posed for pictures on an energetic round of appearances as a goodwill ambassador for the United Nations—and then trumped even that public-relations bonanza by adopting another orphan, an African girl whose parents had died of AIDS. In the blink of an eye, the twice-divorced Jolie—previously known as a tattooed vixen with a taste for bisexuality, heroin, brotherly incest, mental institutions, and wearing her husbands’ blood—had morphed into a globe-trotting humanitarian who seemed to be channeling Audrey Hepburn.

For the 36-year-old Aniston, who had expected to spend the past year being pregnant, the pain of watching this spectacle unfold was compounded by vicious rumors about herself.
(WHEN AND WHERE WAS SHE GONNA BE PREGNANT? SHE WAS SHOOTING MOVIES BACK TO BACK)
As misogynist as they were false, sensationalistic stories claimed the real reason the marriage ended was that Aniston refused to have Pitt’s baby because she was so ambitious she cared only about her career.

Even now, that sexist slur makes her face darken. “A man divorcing would never be accused of choosing career over children,” she says. “That really pissed me off. I’ve never in my life said I didn’t want to have children. I did and I do and I will! The women that inspire me are the ones who have careers and children; why would I want to limit myself? I’ve always wanted to have children, and I would never give up that experience for a career. I want to have it all.”

Aniston’s intimates note acidly that Pitt could have done more to refute the mean-spirited rumor that his wife wouldn’t bear his child, which reinforced the impression that he had good cause to leave her for Earth Mother Jolie. To some, this looks like sheer hypocrisy.

“When Brad and Jen were in the marriage, having a baby was not his priority—ever,” says one mutual friend. “It was an abstract desire for him, whereas for Jen it was much more immediate. So is there a part of Brad that’s diabolical? Did he think, I need to get out of this marriage, but I want to come out smelling like a rose, so I’m going to let Jen be cast as the ultra-feminist and I’m going to get cast as the poor husband who couldn’t get a baby and so had to move on?” (LIARS. WHO HAS CHILDREN TODAY?)

As the image wars raged in the gossip media, a heartbroken Aniston retreated to her Malibu hideaway to lick her wounds in private, accompanied only by her elderly corgi-terrier mix, Norman, who spends most of his time snoring on his dog bed. Public sympathy seemed to be on her side; the Hollywood boutique Kitson reported that its “Team Aniston” T-shirts were outselling “Team Jolie” T-shirts by a margin of 25 to 1. But that was cold comfort as Aniston was assaulted by one provocation after another.

When the Pitts split up, Brad insisted he hadn’t slept with Jolie, and Aniston accepted his denial. “She wasn’t naïve,” says Kristin Hahn, an executive at the Pitts’ production company, Plan B. “She’s not suggesting she didn’t know there was an enchantment, and a friendship. But Brad was saying, ‘This is not about another woman.’”

The moment he and Aniston separated, however, he re-emerged in what looked like a full-blown affair with Jolie. Struggling to accept a separation she never wanted, Aniston found that the “facts” she had been told kept shifting like quicksand beneath her feet. When I ask about that gracious, no-one-is-to-blame announcement of their separation, she takes a deep breath. “What we said was true—”

As I raise my eyebrows, she pauses for a moment, and then adds carefully, “—as far as I knew. We wrote it together, very consciously, and felt very good about it. We exited this relationship as beautifully as we entered it.”

All Aniston wanted then was to figure out what happened; how did the happy life they’d planned drift so far off course? (LIKE SHE DIDN’T KNOW WHAT HAPPENED)

But everything changed on April 29, when photographs broke of Brad and Angelina frolicking on the beach with Maddox at a romantic resort in Africa. “The world was shocked, and I was shocked,” she says, still bending over backward not to excoriate her ex.

But to say that this news was like pouring salt in the wound would understate its impact considerably; how about pouring molten lava into the hole where somebody ripped your heart out?

And then things got worse.

The skies over Los Angeles are uncharacteristically gray today, and the Pacific shimmers with an opalescent sheen. Although the weather is gloomy, the ocean is calm; waves lap gently at the shoreline, making a soft shushing sound that Aniston has found very soothing lately.

“That’s quite a backyard, in my opinion,” she says as we stand on her deck, watching the hypnotic rhythm of the waves. “Just being able to go to the water’s edge and scream—”

She grins. “Not too loudly. You don’t want people to think that you’re crazy. But it can be very cathartic.”

She is wearing a white tank top and white drawstring linen pants, with a vivid lavender cashmere cardiwrap around her to ward off the unseasonable chill. Formidably toned by yoga, her body is in superb shape, but despite her tanned skin and megawatt smile she looks fragile and wan.

She remains resolutely upbeat nonetheless, casting her current situation in the most positive light possible. “It’s beautiful here; I love it,” she says. “I’ve always wanted to have a little Malibu beach house, and it feels good. I’m enjoying simplifying things.”

Although the bungalow was dark and depressing when she first saw it, a quickie makeover has transformed it into a cozy sanctuary that’s far more representative of Aniston’s personal taste than the showplace she and Pitt shared, where the décor seemed all hard edges and unforgiving materials. “Brad and I used to joke that every piece of furniture was either a museum piece or just uncomfortable,” Aniston says. “He definitely had his sense of style, and I definitely have my sense of style, and sometimes they clashed. I wasn’t so much into modern.”

I mention Nicole Kidman’s quip after splitting up with Tom Cruise, when she was asked what she looked forward to in her new life without the diminutive husband who had abruptly ended their marriage. “Wearing high heels again,” Kidman retorted.

So I ask Aniston—who filed for divorce on March 25 and expects it to become final this fall—what she’s enjoying about being on her own. “I can have a comfortable couch,” she says with a wry smile.

In the tabloids and celebrity gossip magazines, the soap-opera version of her life continues to hurtle along like a runaway express train, rushing Aniston through major life stages with ludicrous speed: Jen Is Devastated! Jen Is Furious! Jen Gets Revenge! Jen Has a New Man! Jen Is Over Brad! Most of the stories are wrong. (No, Oprah didn’t try to get Brad and Jen back together; no, Jen is not romantically involved with Vince Vaughn, her co-star in The Break-Up, a comedy about a separating couple who continue to live together, which they shot in Chicago over the summer.)

Other reports are just idiotically simpleminded, breathlessly advancing a plot that bears little resemblance to the long, complex, painful experience of getting over a divorce. While the tabloids insist on dividing Aniston’s emotions into neat, distinct chapters, the reality is that pain and denial and anger and resignation all blur together, sometimes at the same moment—and the lengthy process of mourning is nowhere near over.

“There are many stages of grief,” she says. “It’s sad, something coming to an end. It cracks you open, in a way—cracks you open to feeling. When you try to avoid the pain, it creates greater pain. I’m a human being, having a human experience in front of the world. I wish it weren’t in front of the world. I try really hard to rise above it.”

Aniston is struggling to find a deeper meaning in the debacle. “I have to think there’s some reason I have called this into my life,” she says. “I have to believe that—otherwise it’s just cruel.”

Her friends are filled with admiration for the way she’s handled the whole mess. “This woman is basically having a root canal without anesthesia, but she’s really trying not to numb the pain or shove it under the rug,” says Hahn. “She’s grown so much, and she continues to grow on a daily basis, because every time you think, ‘Well, I’ve dealt with this,’ there’s another hurdle to get over. It’s a bit Job-like at the moment.”

Aniston’s response has been to retreat into her cocoon, “in an effort to take care of myself and my heart,” she says. “I feel like I’m nesting. I love being home. I have friends that come over. My girlfriends I’ve had for 20 years. When things happen, the tribe gathers around and lifts you up. I’ve had lonely moments, sure, but I’m also enjoying being alone. There’s no question it takes getting used to; I’m a partnership person, and if something happens your instinct is to share it—but you’re no longer part of a couple. I definitely miss that. It’s sort of like Bambi—like you’re trying to learn how to walk. You’re a little awkward; you stumble a little bit. The things you would do with your partner, you don’t do. It’s uncharted territory, but I think it’s good for me to be a solo person right now. You’re forced to re-discover yourself and take it to another level. If you can find a way to see the glass half full, these are the moments when you learn the most. I’ve had to re-introduce myself to myself in a way that’s different.”

She doesn’t downplay the difficulties. “Am I lonely? Yes. Am I upset? Yes. Am I confused? Yes. Do I have my days when I’ve thrown a little pity party for myself? Absolutely. But I’m also doing really well,” she says. “I’ve got an unbelievable support team, and I’m a tough cookie.… I believe in therapy; I think it’s an incredible tool in educating the self on the self. I feel very strong. I’m really proud of how I’ve conducted myself.”

A crucial part of Aniston’s strategy has been to ignore the putrid stew of rumor, speculation, and outright falsehood in the tabloid media. “It’s been very important for me not to read anything, not to see anything,” she says. “It’s been my saving grace. That stuff is just toxic for me right now. I probably avoided a lot of suffering by not engaging in it, not reading, not watching.”

She gestures toward Norman, who has roused himself for a moment to check on his mistress’s whereabouts. “It’s like those dog cones,” she says, encircling her neck as if putting on one of the plastic cones prescribed by vets to prevent dogs from scratching their ears. “I have my imaginary dog cone on, so I don’t see anything. It just allows for a much more peaceful life.”

N evertheless, as Pitt publicly flaunted the instant family he had created with Jolie, the tableaux of their newfound togetherness were humiliating. “I would be a robot if I said I didn’t feel moments of anger, of hurt, of embarrassment,” Aniston acknowledges.

But she tries to keep the lurid details to herself. “She is grieving, but she’s taken the high road,” says Bendewald. “She’s mourning the death of a marriage, and she’s done it very privately. She can have her moments of rage, but she doesn’t want to out him, and that keeps her heart clear. She’s not bad-mouthing him. She doesn’t want to make him the villain and her the victim.”

Indeed, Aniston vehemently rejects the interpretation that she was left for another woman. “I don’t feel like a victim,” she says. “I’ve worked with this therapist for a long time, and her major focus is that you get one day of being a victim—and that’s it. Then we take responsibility for our own input. To live in a victim place is pointing a finger at someone else, as if you have no control. Relationships are two people; everyone is accountable. A lot goes into a relationship coming together, and a lot goes into a relationship falling apart. She’d say, ‘Even if it’s 98 percent the other person’s fault, it’s 2 percent yours, and that’s what we’re going to focus on.’ You can only clean up your side of the street.”

These days, one index of recovery is the fact that Aniston’s sardonic humor is resurfacing. When I tell her that my 13-year-old son is a big fan of hers, she doesn’t miss a beat. “Is he single?” she asks, deadpan.

She’ll toss off a crack about Pitt’s startling transformation into a punky bleached blond. “Billy Idol called—he wants his look back,” she murmurs with a sly smile.

By now she can even talk about those gut-wrenching photos of Jolie and Pitt in Kenya with mordant resignation rather than tears. “I can’t say it was one of the highlights of my year,” she says. “Who would deal with that and say, ‘Isn’t that sweet! That looks like fun!’? But **** happens. You joke and say, ‘What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger.’”

She sighs. “I feel like I’ve earned a superpower shield,” she says. Then, afraid of sounding grandiose, she adds, “I’m not comparing my suffering to other people’s suffering. Everybody has their own.”

Aniston’s friends were particularly horrified by W magazine’s 60-page photo spread featuring Pitt and Jolie as an early-1960s-style married couple with a brood of miniature blond Brads. “You want to shake the **** out of him and say, ‘Your timing sucks!’” says one. “He’s made some choices that have been tremendously insensitive.”

The W feature, which was entitled “Domestic Bliss,” couldn’t be blamed on the paparazzi; not only did Pitt conceptualize it, but he retained the international rights, so he actually profited from it. Aniston’s eyes widen in surprise when I mention that last fact, and she grimaces. “I didn’t know that,” she says. But she refuses to indulge herself in an angry reaction. “Is it odd timing? Yeah. But it’s not my life,” she says. “He makes his choices. He can do—whatever. We’re divorced, and you can see why.”

She shakes her head in exasperation. “I can also imagine Brad having absolutely no clue why people would be appalled by it,” she adds. “Brad is not mean-spirited; he would never intentionally try to rub something in my face. In hindsight, I can see him going, ‘Oh—I can see that that was inconsiderate.’ But I know Brad. Brad would say, ‘That’s art!’”

She rolls her eyes, pretending to screw something into her forehead. “There’s a sensitivity chip that’s missing,” she says.

Aniston’s friends are amazed at her willingness to give Pitt the benefit of the doubt, but they basically agree with her assessment. “I don’t think he was trying to hurt Jen,” says Courteney Cox, Aniston’s dear friend and former co-star on Friends. “I don’t think that Brad is malicious, or a liar. The W thing was his idea, but I don’t think he thought that one through, about what it would look like to anyone else.”

Although Aniston remains determined not to lash out, she sometimes questions her own restraint. “Why am I protecting him?” she exclaimed to one friend, only to continue with what she sees as the dignified course of action. (STUPID *****. WHY WOULD SHE PROTECT HIM WHEN HE DID NOTHING)

“I’m not interested in taking public potshots,” she explains. “It’s not my concern anymore. What happened to him after the separation—it’s his life now. I’ve made a conscious effort not to add to the toxicity of this situation. I haven’t retaliated. I don’t want to be a part of it. I don’t have a halo that I’m polishing here; everyone has their personal thoughts. But I would much rather everyone move on. I am not defined by this relationship. I am not defined by the part they’re making me play in the triangle. It’s maddening to me. But I had a mom who was very angry about her divorce, and made shots, and I don’t want to play that out. If people are frustrated that I don’t want to do that, I’m sorry. I’m figuring this out as I go along. This is my first time at this particular picnic.”

As befits a storybook tale, the Pitts’ marriage was the first for both of them, and some of Aniston’s fondest memories are from the time they shared before the world discovered their romance. “We had so much fun falling in love,” she says wistfully. “It was so private; we kept it to ourselves for so long. It was something we were really proud of.”

But after the relationship became public, it was always difficult to reconcile their mythic image with the quotidian reality of their private life, which was more likely to involve watching television, ordering takeout, and having close friends over than swanning around on red carpets.

“We were put on a pedestal, but we were just a couple like anybody else,” Aniston says. “When we were home, we’d watch the shows we loved, and one time there was this program called It’s Good to Be Brad and Jen. It was all about us going to Scotland and Greece and having our matching S.U.V.’s, and it wasn’t my life—I’d never even been to some of these places, but even I got sucked in. We’re sitting there saying, ‘Yeah, boy, it sure must be good to be Brad and Jen!’ So is it our responsibility to demystify this, to say, ‘This is not what it’s like—it’s not that fabulous, not that great’? There’s no doubt our life is fortunate, but … ”

But even golden couples struggle with the formidable challenges of marriage. “It’s like the ebb and flow of every relationship,” Aniston says. “It’s hard; it gets easy; it gets fun again. What’s hard to sustain is some ideal that it’s perfect. That’s ridiculous. What’s fantastic about marriage is getting through those ebbs and flows with the same person, and looking across the room and saying, ‘I’m still here. And I still love you.’ You re-meet, reconnect. You have marriages within marriages within marriages. That’s what I love about marriage. That’s what I want in marriage. It’s unfortunate, but we live in a very disposable society. Those moments where it looks like ‘Uh-oh, this isn’t working!’—those are the most important, transformative moments. Most couples draw up divorce papers when they’re missing out on an amazing moment of deepening and enlightenment and connection.”

She sighs heavily and turns away to light a Merit cigarette. “That’s not Brad’s view of it,” she says, glum again. “We believe in different things, I guess. You can’t force a relationship, even if it’s your view of how you would like it to be conducted. Obviously two people leave a relationship because there’s a different thought pattern happening. My goal is to try and achieve a very deep, committed relationship. That’s what I’m interested in, but it’s someone’s prerogative to be or not to be in or out of a relationship.”

“I think Jen wanted to work it out, and I don’t think he wanted to work it out,” Andrea Bendewald observes. “I don’t think he knew what he wanted.”

Nevertheless, Aniston has only kind words about her marriage. “I still feel so lucky to have experienced it. I wouldn’t know what I know now if I hadn’t been married to Brad,” she says. “I love Brad; I really love him. I will love him for the rest of my life. He’s a fantastic man. I don’t regret any of it, and I’m not going to beat myself up about it. We spent seven very intense years together; we taught each other a lot—about healing, and about fun. We helped each other through a lot, and I really value that. It was a beautiful, complicated relationship. The sad thing, for me, is the way it’s been reduced to a Hollywood cliché—or maybe it’s just a human cliché. I have a lot of compassion for everyone going through this.”

A s for what went wrong, Aniston rejects any simplistic explanation. “It’s just complicated,” she says. “Relationships are complicated, whether they’re friendships or business relationships or parent relationships. I don’t think anybody in a marriage gets to a point where they feel like ‘We’ve got it!’ You’re two people continually evolving, and there will be times when those changes clash. There are all these levels of growth—and when you stop growing together, that’s when the problems happen.”

Friends say that it was always difficult for Aniston and Pitt to maintain the intimacy they craved while juggling their demanding work schedules, which often required long separations. Those tensions notwithstanding, Aniston believed her marriage was the real thing. “We both did,” she says.

So what happened? “I think—it changed,” she says haltingly. “We both changed.”

She sighs again. “You do the best you can, and I think we did. We did the best we could.”

Both of them? She looks me straight in the eye. “Both parties,” she says.

But nagging questions remain about Pitt’s conduct during the months leading up to their separation. “She was committed to the marriage,” says Bendewald. “He wanted to figure out who he was and what he wanted, but he seemed to want to do it without being married. She wanted him to figure out what he wanted and stay married. He didn’t think he could do that, so at that point she was like, ‘O.K., go figure it out.’”

Throughout that period, Pitt insisted that his relationship with Jolie was not the cause of his marital discontent, but his actions since the separation have suggested otherwise.

“I just don’t know what happened,” Aniston admits. “There’s a lot I don’t understand, a lot I don’t know, and probably never will know, really. So I choose to take away with me as much integrity and dignity and respect for what that relationship was as I can. I feel as if I’m trying to scrounge around and pick up the pieces in the midst of this media circus.”

Does she buy Brad’s claim that he didn’t cheat on her before they separated? “I choose to believe my husband,” Aniston says. “At this point, I wouldn’t be surprised by anything, but I would much rather choose to believe him.”

Their friends are still trying to parse what happened with Jolie. “I don’t think he started an affair physically, but I think he was attracted to her,” says Courteney Cox, who vacationed with her husband, David Arquette, and the Pitts on Anguilla just before they announced their separation. “There was a connection, and he was honest about that with Jen. Most of the time, when people are attracted to other people, they don’t tell. At least he was honest about it. It was an attraction that he fought for a period of time.”

He may have been fighting it, but Pitt virtually checked out of his marriage as soon as he began working with Jolie, according to Aniston’s intimates. “He was gone,” says one.

Aniston has met Jolie only once, when she took a passing opportunity to say hello. “It was on the lot of Friends —I pulled over and introduced myself,” Aniston recalls. “I said, ‘Brad is so excited about working with you. I hope you guys have a really good time.’”

But he soon became emotionally unavailable to his wife, at a time when she needed him desperately. Pitt’s withdrawal coincided with the end of Friends, which Aniston experienced as a huge loss. “That was really painful. It was a family, and I don’t do great with families splitting up,” says Aniston, who was deeply wounded by her parents’ bitter divorce, which happened when she was 9. “It was hard to have such a wonderful constant in your life, a place to go every day, and then all of a sudden it’s not there.”

When she reached out for her husband’s support, she didn’t get it. “He just wasn’t there for me,” she says.

To the amazement of Aniston’s friends, Pitt didn’t even show up for the final taping of Friends. (HE WAS FILMING TROY AND SHE KNEW IT. WAS IT SUPPOSED TO LEAVE A MILLION DOLLAR MOVIE TO WATCH HIS WIFE TAPE A CRAPPY SITCOM)

“He was working,” she says, still defending him, even though movie stars have been known to request changes in a shooting schedule to accommodate events that are important to them.

Although she isn’t talking to Pitt these days, Aniston remains in regular contact with his mother, whom she loves dearly, and she doesn’t rule out a better relationship with Brad in the future. “I really do hope that someday we can be friends again,” she says.

She certainly doesn’t regret her four-and-a-half-year marriage—not even the million-dollar wedding with 50,000 flowers, a 40-member gospel choir, a Greek bouzouki band, and fireworks exploding over the Pacific. (”It was fantastic!” she says.) But she does have other regrets.

“There’s a lot I would probably do differently,” she says. “I’d take more vacations—getting away from work, enjoying each other in different environments. But there was always something preventing it; either he was working or I was.”

She made more profound mistakes as well. “I wouldn’t give over so much of myself, which I did at times,” she admits. “It was that thing about being a nurturer; I love taking care of people, and I definitely put his needs before mine sometimes. It’s seamless; somewhere along the way, you sort of lose yourself. You just don’t know when it happens. It’s such an insidious thing, you don’t really see where it started—and where you ended. There’s no one to blame but yourself. I’ve always been that way in relationships, even with my mom. It’s not the healthiest. I feel like I’ve broken the pattern now. I’ll never let myself down like that again. I feel like my sense of self is being strengthened because of it.”

Aniston’s unhappy family history colored her experience of marriage from the outset. “I come from a fighting family, and I had a tough time arguing,” she says. “Fighting scared me. I wouldn’t speak up for myself. That’s something I’ve learned; I will always speak my mind.”

In recent months, the process of healing from the breakup with Brad has also created a new openness to healing relations with her mother. Their estrangement began nearly a decade ago, when Nancy Aniston gossiped about Jennifer on a television show, and worsened when she tried to cash in on Jennifer’s fame by writing an appalling book called From Mother and Daughter to Friends. Jennifer severed all contact, but she is now re-assessing their relationship.

“We’ve exchanged messages,” she says. “Our doors are open. We’re taking baby steps. It’s a good thing.”

Although Aniston incurred criticism for distancing herself from her mother, who did not attend her wedding, she offers no apologies. “I feel pretty good about the choices I’ve made. The choice of not speaking to Mom for a while—that’s ours. Nobody else has to understand it. The same thing with Brad and myself,” she says. “I wouldn’t change my childhood, I wouldn’t change my heartaches, I wouldn’t change my successes. I wouldn’t change any of it, because I really love who I am, and am continuing to become.

“Besides, it’s all in the past,” she adds. “This doesn’t kill you. You move on. You can’t let the devastation of a divorce take over and win—let it make you this bitter, closed-off, angry, skeptical person. Then you’re just falling victim to it. You don’t want to shut your heart down. You don’t want to feel that when a marriage ends, your life is over. You can survive anything. Compared to what other people are surviving out there in the world, this is not so bad, in the grand scheme of things. Human endurance is unbelievable. Think of what mothers of soldiers have to rise above! Everything’s relative.”

She looks down at her firm, fit body. “Nothing’s broke,” she says.

Catching the quizzical look on my face, she concedes, “Maybe a little bruised.”

A few weeks later, on a stiflingly hot day in Chicago, Aniston and I are sitting in her hotel suite looking out on Lake Michigan, which is studded with little white boats. I’ve just told her about the gossip magazine that says she’s registered here as “Mrs. Smith.” The report claims Aniston is taking perverse pleasure in making hotel staffers address her as Mrs. Smith, even though they know perfectly well who she is.

The only problem with this amusing tidbit is that it’s not true. “I wish I’d thought of it,” says Aniston, who is registered under an entirely different, although equally humorous, name.

Despite her vow of abstinence, she succumbed to a celebrity magazine the other evening—and immediately regretted it. “I feel like I’ve fallen off the wagon,” she moans. Unfortunately, the first publication she picked up featured an insult from Kimberly Stewart, Rod’s party-girl daughter. “She said I’m homely,” Aniston says. “It literally ruined my night. I got my feelings very hurt, actually. That was my instant Karma.”

She has always fretted about her appearance, although that is often hard for others to believe. Posing for her Vanity Fair cover shoot, Aniston was equally fetching in French-dance-hall-girl black stockings and in a half-open oversize shirt that evoked every man’s favorite just-rolled-out-of-bed look. With her tousled hair, cobalt-blue eyes, and dazzling smile, she seemed the ultimate adorable sexpot. Far from pining away in seclusion, she appeared to be sending a far more spirited message—like “Eat your heart out, Brad!”

But Aniston has never been able to reconcile the glamorous Jen on page or screen with the self-doubting woman she sees in the mirror, and the current tabloid coverage has exacerbated that gap. “It’s literally two different people—the real me, and the ‘Jen’ they write about, ‘fighting back,’ ‘getting revenge’—everything I couldn’t be farther from wanting to do,” she says. “So I’m back on the wagon.”

When she arrived in Chicago to film The Break-Up, the gossip media, frantic for a new development, immediately plunged her into a torrid romance with her co-star, Vince Vaughn. This affair apparently does not exist.

“I adore Vince Vaughn, but I’m not going out with Vince Vaughn,” she says. “I barely know the guy. We’ve exchanged a wine-and-cheese basket for the start of the movie, and we’ve gone out to dinner with the director and other people. We’ve got to get to know each other.”

But is Aniston seeing him—or anyone else? “Nobody,” she says firmly. “I like a lot of people, but I am sooo not ‘in like’ with anybody. I am really enjoying being by myself. I’m excited that I know there’s somebody out there for me, but I am absolutely in no rush. This is all very fresh, very new. This was a seven-year relationship that was very dear, very complicated, very special. I need to honor it.”

Aside from her initial flurry of tears, Aniston remains calm and thoughtful through hours of conversation with me over the course of several weeks. But there is one final topic to be addressed, and it’s the most hurtful of all. The rumor that Jolie is pregnant with Pitt’s child has swept around the world; some reports even have her finishing her first trimester.

When I ask Aniston about that, she looks as if I’ve stabbed her in the heart. Her eyes well up and spill over. Several long minutes go by as the tears keep rolling down her cheeks; she bites her lip, seemingly unable to speak. Finally she shakes her head; this subject is simply too excruciating to discuss.

“My worst fear is that Jen will have to face them having a baby together soon, because that would be beyond beyond painful,” says Kristin Hahn.

Fortunately, there are many other things to keep Aniston occupied these days. Although she took some time off after Friends ended, she has since shot several movies, and the coming months will bring a series of premieres. First up is Derailed, a thriller starring Aniston and Clive Owen as two married strangers who meet on a train and arrange a hotel-room tryst—only to have an armed man burst in, rape the woman, and beat the man and blackmail him, setting off a horrific chain of events. The film will make adultery look about as appealing as Fatal Attraction did, according to Aniston: “It will be one of those movies you leave and say, ‘The affair thing? Maybe not!’”

Then there’s Rumor Has It, whose plot revolves around a young reporter’s conviction that The Graduate was based on her family, and that she herself is adopted. Mark Ruffalo plays her fiancé, and Shirley MacLaine is the Mrs. Robinson character, with Kevin Costner as the Benjamin Braddock who may or may not be Aniston’s father.

Yet another upcoming film is Friends with Money, in which Aniston portrays a pothead maid whose friends—played by Catherine Keener, Joan Cusack, and Frances McDormand—are all married and far more successful in life.

Aniston is also re-evaluating her future role at Plan B, the production company she formed with Pitt and Brad Grey, who has since become chairman of Paramount. Pitt is now assuming the lead role at Plan B, but Aniston says she will still produce movies through the company.

“I’m excited about what the future holds,” she says. “I’m not a fortune-teller; I have no idea how it will play out. People say, ‘What are you going to do?’ I don’t know. I kind of love that not knowing.”

She is trying to outgrow some youthful illusions. Prince Charming let her down, and Aniston no longer believes in one true love. “I think there are many people, many soul mates,” she says.

But she still has faith in the redeeming power of love itself. “It’s out there,” she says. “It will happen. There’s an amazing man that’s wandering the streets right now who’s the father of my children. In five years I would hope to be married and have a kid. I still believe in marriage 100 percent. When I hear people say that they would never do it again, it’s like cutting off your nose to spite your face. Why would you ever close your heart down?”

She gives me a sheepish smile. “Maybe it’s a fairy tale, but I believe in happily ever after.”

I have only read excerpts of The Famous Vanity Fair Interview but yesterday I read it the full article and all I can say is Yawzaa! Jennifer Aniston is a VINDICTIVE COW. I get now people always refer to it. This is a HATCHET JOB not an interview. I used to feel sorry for her because she’s always looking sad but after reading this, I see why she is sad Jen. She expects everything to be about her and since it can’t be, she is disappointed and tries to guilt people by wearing her sad Jen look. Mark my words, one day she’s gonna turn of Courtney because nobody can please her.

Some of you people are just so mean….

I agree with u gumlover, this is highly entertaining how ur idol makes fool of herself.

Video of J&V kissing sometime last year on youtube.

It’s tough but I just don’t believe Jennifer was hurting for the LOSS of Brad but humiliated by Brad moving on with Angelina, even though it was nearly 4 months from legal separation.
