(1) ……..Also about Jen’s mother. Even as a child Jen’s mother would put her down. Her mother would pick on her looks and her hair. Most of her insecurities are probably due to her mother.

Every time when a person pleaded Jen to pay for her mother’s expense, you came up with the above EXCUSE. Since you go this route, ok, let’s talk about it.

You wrote, “pick on her look and her hair”—–you called this damaging evidence? wow !!!! Is this enough reason for you to defend Jen’s actions regarding her mother???

You said Jen’s mother wrote a book. Okay, let’s talk about this “BOOK”.

This book was written when Jen was all grown up and famous. Apparently there was no child abuse, taking her daughter’s boyfriend away, etc. Otherwise you Jen fans will be mentioning them. Are you telling me this “BOOK” alone is enough to wipe away all the 21 years of living, nurturing, and struggling together ?

You told me you are a family lawyer. Dont we need to hear the mother’s side before you jump to conclusion and defend Jen’s action?

Shouldnt her mother’s “silence” deserve some credit??

Could it be her mother needed the money and meant no harm?.

May be her mother’s INTENT was out of love but somehow was misunderstood.

But NO, you sure dont give her mother any credit.

(2) ….You must assume that all moms are good people. I have clients whose mother left them at the park and never came back. I have one client whose mother looked the other way when she was raped by the mom’s boyfriend. I have another client whose mom turned tricks in front of him. One of my kids was killed by his mom a couple of years ago. Some of my runaways left because they were put down constantly or ignored. I don’t know what kind of mother Jen had. All I know is that she was willing to betray her only daughter for money. When you have not one, but two children in show business and neither will foot your bills there must be a reason.

Everytime when a post mentioned that, since Jen has 110M, she should be the one to foot the bill because Jen’s mother, at her old age, is in a indigent care ward, you went on defending Jen by giving all these examples from your work (see above in italics).

Are you telling me that, because according to Jen, her mother has done her wrong, therefore she has NO moral obligation to pick up her living expenses? Is this what you are saying??? Is this what you are teaching your children????

Let me give a hypothetical example. Mother and daughter didnt get along….leading to estrangement….. Mother had a heart attack. …. daughter left the scene….leaving mother dying. Are you telling me this is acceptable behavior? Where is human decency????

Again, not ONE single posts was talking what went wrong on mother/daughter relationship. Many of the posts were just asking Jen to drop the grudge, step up and help her mother. We are not asking her to talk, visit or reconcile with her mother. We are asking her to cut a check.

Why are you so defensive??

(3)…… This whole thread is about Jen and Angie. Also I haven’t trashed Angie. I don’t blame he for not talking to her dad.
Jen and her mother don’t speak to each other because Jen’s mother wrote a tell-all-book about Jen when Friends became a hit. They are currently estranged. Angie also doesn’t speak to her father because……

What bothers me is why Jolie is brought into this. There is NOT one single post criticizing Jen for not reconciling with her mom. We merely asked Jen to write a check to her mother. You missed the whole point!!!.

By saying Jolie also didnt speak to her Mom in defense for Jen, you are essentially saying because my cousin steals, it gives me the right to steal. What kind of logic is that? You told me you are a lawyer?.

On a side note, Jolie pays ALL her mother’s living expenses. Yup, I’m so proud of Angie.

(4) ….I am defending Jen on this site because 95% of the posts are trashing her. If this thread goes the other way then I’ll defend Angie.

Your 95 % is GROSSLY wrong. Most of the posts are :

a) analysis of how Jen got her networth of 110M

b) Posts asking why Courtney and Lisa were not on the list

c) Posts explaining that the bulk of Jen’s money came from a divorce settlement from Plan B

d) A plead for Jen to foot the bill since her mother is in an indigent care ward

5) impact on celebrity giving

6) misc on Oprah, Britney etc

I went thru the whole thread from post # 1 to #349. I counted every post that I would consider “trashing” remarks. I came up with a total of 21. That makes 6% of anti Jen posts .

Please understand that , stating a fact, agreeing, disagreeing are not trashing. You told me you are a lawyer. First, I am surprised how can you be so way off. Second, most of the posts are analysing how Jen got the bulk of her wealth, namely through a divorce settlement from Plan B.

There are also many posts that asked her to foot her mother’s expenses since in her old age, she is in a indigent care ward.

Then, there are also posts saying that she did NOT donate enough in proportion to her wealth.

No one ever said she got it illegally. How can this be “trashing” your Jen idol? Are you telling me analysis, exaplaining , stating facts, agreeing, disagreeing, pleading are trashing?

Although I have not counted how many anti-Jolie posts, I do notice many rabid Jen fans who wrote derogatory remarks against Angie.

I went back and read all your posts. I found out you assumed things and worded your opinion as facts. This is what irks me. That’s why I am here.

Angelina got a higher avoidance ranking thank Mel Gibson …he got 15% she got 18%..that’s saying something given his recent drink driving and rasist rants..

Maybe that’s why Jen is rich…she is the peoples choice after all.

polls Says:
______________
so you understand, its night and day difference to say
18 % AVOID seeing a movie vs 18 % WILL see a movie. right?

I’m pointing out the mistake of #346
the word avoid vs will

if 18 % avoid , meaning there will be 82% will see the movie. That’s good enough. All she has to do is put out good movies. I wont worry about the stat.

come on people MONEY CAN’T BUY HAPPINESS They are all rich not matter if it is
$1,500 million or $100 million they don’t have money problems everything is free for these women but are they really HAPPY look at the olsens i don’t think they enjoy their lives

Jennifer Aniston got NO money from the divorce to Brad. When they were divorced Jennifer had as much money as Brad so everything was split in the middle. Get your facts straight.

BRITNEY SPEARS. OOOOOOOOOOOOPS SHE DID IT.

WTF?! If you notice, these women aren’t extremely old, and if you were to combine Meryl STreep’s total earnings there wouldn’t be 20 women there would only be one, and even if she isn’t as rich as Oprah, at least she’s down to earth and not all over the place. She has common sense and doesn’t do stupid things unlike every person on this list, what about the smartest women in show buisness, becasue Meryl would take top spot for that, wouldn’t she..?!

Why should Jennifer (use her proper name you disrespectful ignorant people) give to charity? Its her money, she earnt it, she can do what the bloody hell she likes with it. The same goes for everyone no matter how much money the individual has and gives to charity. I dont give to charity - do any of you want to start ‘hating’ me because I dont. I am sure if any of you happened to get a substantial amount of money you wouldnt want to be hated just because you didnt do something that someone thought you should do with it. Its an individuals choice and you should let people live how they want to live as long as it not hurting anyone. You are the shallow ones - with remarks like ‘maniston’ I think that maybe you were school bullies and nasty, nasty people. All that hate - there is no space left for any compasion, love, respect and understanding. no wonder the worlds in the state its in. I hope none of you inflict your views on your poor poor children, if you have any. If not please please dont. they dont deserve it.

Cliniqua, you tell it straight but one thing you gotta remember is that Friend’s ain’t no lame a s s show. Friends is the biggest hit on TV. Have you ever heard of anybody being paid a million per episode of Friends? Well since they did plenty of episodes, no wonder she’s kneehigh in money!
I’m an Angelina-basher, so I ain’t gonna hold back. Angelina made what two three blockbusters in her life? Jennifer Aniston was part of a TV show that was hot and internationally loved for 10 years straight. And lets not forget The Break-Up. Granted, it was crap but it still remained box office tops for a week or two.
Jennifer Aniston does rake in money from the Company. But that’s not her main income. She doesnt’ live off divorce money. And anyways Jennifer Aniston was just as hot and rich as Brad was. And she still was throughout the marriage. The money is pretty much equal.
Angelina goes helicoptering all the time. That wastes a lot of money. And how much money do they spend on baby food and diapers? I’m a bit celebrity gossip hog but I’ve never actually heard of Angelina donating millions to help charity. We all appreciate that she takes time to go to Africa and say hey hey hey hello to the malnourished kiddies who need that lovin’. But truth is Oprah donates more than her! And a truly pure hearted person would not turn down an offer to help a school to help poor African girls with Oprah. Oprah OFFERED HER THE CHANCE but she turned it down. Why? The only reason apparent why a person who loves helping Africa so much like Angelina would turn it down is because Oprah interviewed Aniston after the split and it seemed like she was on Team Aniston. But hey! Its Jolie’s fault she turned down the offer to tell her side of the story to make things fair and equal.
Are you saying that she got the Along Came Polly role because Brad was her husband? Brad wasn’t that hot back then, ok? He didn’t make really incredible movies that wowed people. It was Aniston who kept Friends going along. And I know I’m yakking on Friends but it is the most extraodinary entertainment feat ever!!!
IT IS NOT A CELEBRITY’S JOB TO MAKE AWARENESS IDIOT. Aniston is not hired to tell reporters she gave money to the kids in Africa. It is not her job to adopt half of Johannesburg. It is not her job to raise awareness! It is her job to provide entertainment for us. Her career is making movies and shows. She is not paid so she can give money out publicly. Not every celebrity needs to flash their cards at everybody to show everybody “I’m Donating. LOOK AT ME! LOVE ME! BECAUSE GUESS WHAT?!?! I’M A DONATING HO E BAG! I DONATE ALL THE TIME! SO LOVE ME! NOW YOU CAN LOVE ME! EVEN THOUGH I WRECKED A HOME, FRENCHED MY BROTHER, AND LIKES TO WEAR BLOOD ON MY CLOTHES OR AS ACCESSORIES!!” that’s a publicity *****. angelina is a publicity *****.
so concludes my point.
and Cliniqua? Your point about charity VS French tips? Jennifer Aniston keeps more to herself than ever. How much money do you think Angelina wastes on helicopters instead of helping children? How much money do you think Angelina wastes on clothes and hairstyles for her Maddox instead of improving the living conditions in Africa? How much money do you think she uses to get the all new, everybody loves to have one tattoo instead of donating to give Africans a roof to live under? YOU TELL ME.

I saw all of the comments about Angekina and Aniston, but i do think that Madonna has changed and done some good. Despite all the crap shes gotten about adopting david, and trying to help out i think she is making something out of that 325 million…..!!!! : )

Folks do some freaking research, Aniston in her some 10 years on friends profited over 70 million. And when they use the word net, that means everything, all the real estate and various investments not just what they have in the bank. And yes Aniston had and has more money then Pitt SO SHE GOT NOTHING.

Judge Judy has that much money through investments in real estate, she was worth that before she started her show.

Where the hell is Cher? Shes worth over $1 billion

@ Sasha…

Maybe do some research before commenting. Jennifer has made her $ from being on Friends. Second Brad and Jen divided all their assests equally. Oh…and Angelina is a *****.
