There could be an off screen rivalry between Jennifer Aniston, 39, and her co-star Jennifer Connelly, 37, in the upcoming film He’s Just not That Into You. Aniston is said to have demanded that Connelly not appear with her in a cast photo for the cover of Marie Claire. Only Drew Barrymore and Ginnifer Goodwin could be shown with Aniston according to her stipulations, and she was to be the focus of the shoot. It’s unknown why Aniston and Connelly aren’t getting along, but they’re said to have acted cold to each other on set:
Connelly… will not be included in an upcoming cover shoot for Marie Claire magazine that will feature Aniston… and her other co-stars from the October comedy, Drew Barrymore and Ginnifer Goodwin. “Word is, Aniston threatened to pull out if Jennifer was part of the cover,” says an insider familiar with the movie’s shoot. “It was all about getting Jennifer Aniston front and center and looking as sexy as possible.”
So what’s Jen’s beef with [Connelly]? While Aniston’s rep denies that there’s any discord between the actresses, they just didn’t hit it off, says the insider: “There was no camaraderie between those two whatsoever. They didn’t seem like friends in the slightest.”
[From Life & Style, print edition, June 23, 2008]
I wonder what happened between Connelly and Aniston if this is true. Maybe Aniston realizes that Oscar-winning actress Connelly could potentially eclipse her as the film’s star if given a chance. IMDB has the plot containing a “series of interconnecting story arcs” so it’s possible that they get as much screen time.
There’s also a lot of talk about another one of Aniston’s potential rivalries. Her ex husband’s new partner, Angelina Jolie, has her film The Changeling out on October 24, which also when He’s Just Not That Into You first hits theaters. Since one film is a romantic comedy, and the other is a drama there doesn’t seem to be much competition. Aniston’s film is likely to do better just because of the subject matter and format.
Jennifer Connelly is shown at the Costume Institute Gala on 5/5/08, thanks to WENN. Jennifer Aniston is shown on set with Owen Wilson (below) on 5/21/08, thanks to Splash News.

Jennifer Connelly is GORGEOUS! I wouldn’t want to take a picture next to her either. You know that’s what it is. That’s why Aniston will always be second rate. She can act but, she lacks the ability to act as confidently as she should.
-
Jennifer Aniston is a douche bag just like John Mayer. They are Douchifer. Great name for that old hag.
-
I totally agree Alexis. Jennifer Connelly is not only super hot, she is also accomplished as an actor,and also college educated. Something you can’t say about 99.9% of the actors who are always telling us how to live or what to do. I hope this story is not true though because I don’t usually have any problems with J Aniston. She’s not running around trying to save the world or telling me how I should live. She just makes her money, goes home and puts on a bikini and waits on MR. Dark Dick to call.
-
Connelly is probably friends with Jolie…hahaha. I dunno do we really think this is true? They may not get along but the photoshoot thing? I dunno. Dont know if I buy it.
-
I’m not a fan of Aniston’s acting (agree with Alexis that she lacks confidence), but I have trouble believing this story. It just sounds too diva-ish for boring old JA.
-
Jenniffer Connelly was prettier when she had meat on her bones but now she is way to thin! Not a pretty look. Jennifer Aniston has a better body.
-
Nice perfect little wouldn’t-say-shit- with-a-mouthful Jen did that? My mind boggles.
-
Maybe they just didn’t get on, it happens. Maybe they got on just fine and it’s a load of bs. Personally, I think it’s just more of the same old same old, people stirring for the sake of it. A Marie Claire cover is hardly going to be the deciding factor as to who takes centre stage in the movie! I think the movie itself will determine that. She doesn’t seem the diva type.
As for the clashing movie release date with Jolie, will this never stop?? Seriously.
-
i dont like aniston but this is life and style report so lies.
jennifer c should give jennifer a acting lessons,girl need that badly !! -
Connelly has an Oscar, a hot Brit husband, two beautiful children, a stellar film career, grace and class.
Aniston has good hair.
I can see why Aniston wouldn’t want the side-by-side comparison.
-
I can totally see jen aniston doing something like that.
-
Jennifer Connelly is a bone fide genre crossing talented actress. Jennifer Aniston is a comedic entertainer. Maybe there is a bit of jealousy going on.
Although Aniston should also be worried about Gennifer Goodwin. I think Goodwin has a great chance at a Connelly-like career.
-
I like Goodwin, too, Headache. She’s cute as a button and she can act her ass off. She was my favorite part of that horrible movie Mona Lisa Smile.
Team Goodwin!
-
I like both J’s. JC has won an Oscar, so maybe that is causing jealously. If I was shagging with John Mayer, I wouldn’t give a crap who was on the cover. In fact, I probably stay in bed with JM all day and cuddle & let him treat my body like a wonderland!
-
Mr. Dark Dick Rot? Really?
-
Goodwin threw down in Walk the Line. It takes some chops to stand up to Joaquin Phoenix in a role like that.
-
I don’t believe this story, I don’t think jennifer A. is a diva..I could see Angelina doing something like that..but not Aniston…As far as the two movies go, I won’t see anything Skankalina is in..but Jen..maybe
-
curiously, on set, Aniston also told other actresses, not play inspired, to not get lost on their performance and.. “looking as sexy as possible”
-
Jennifer Connelly knows how to act.
Jennifer Aniston knows how to pretend to be pretty.
-
I don’t get it. If Aniston doesn’t want to be photographed next to the gorgeous Jennifer Connelly, then why would it be OK to be photographed with Drew Barrymore, who just got named Most Beautiful Woman in the World by People mag?
Doesn’t make sense IMHO.
I think both Jennifers are beautiful, but their looks are very different.
-
Jennifer Connelly has everything (Oscar, kids the hot husband) and is gorgeous without depending on a good hair day to look good no less. Ahem. Some people just do not click, no reason- been there myself. If this is true JA is just using her clout to maybe just not have someone around she doesn’t like. No reason jsut because she can.
That said, I’m going to see The Changeling first b/c it looks more interesting. JA is good at what shes does- the romantic comedy- but I’ll wait till it hits video!
-
What a bunch of crap! ROTFLMFAO! Life&Style is too funny!
-
What’s the ROTF in ROTFLMFAO?
-
My, my, my, what a woman of power you have made Aniston out to be and with Warner Brothers - Brad Grey’s baby - to boot. What a chock of shite here, ladies. But hey - it’s hype for the movie, so your Jennifer Aniston hating backfired on you. I want to read just one credible piece from Celebitchy. Nah - no such animal.
-
LMAO@ hippacrat!
This story sounds idiotic to me too frankly. JA doesn’t want to be photographed next to JC because she’s too pretty/successful/bigger star, but is happy to be next to Drew Barrymore, who is as pretty and adorable as you like and is an equally big name? Hogwash say I
Say what you like about JA, both she and JC have always struck me as being a complete professionals.
The real shame here is that JA is growing out that fringe she had in Markley and me. Seriously Jen, don’t - it really suited you.
-
Alexis, ROTF = Rolling on the Floor
-
Sounds like regular old L&S bullshit to me…
But I can understand why JA would be threatened by JC
-
I keep reading the comments that say JA can act well in romantic comedies, and I have yet to see it. She only has one speed– the character from Friends. Everything is just a variation on that. To me, that’s not acting, that’s just playing yourself.
Not too fond of either Jennifer, but this story is amusing nonetheless. If we’re picking sides, I’m on Team Goodwin!
-
two comments:
1.) This rivalry crap will not end til one of them dies (JA or Angie)!!2.) I don’t buy this story and wish people would stop ripping on JA, she’s very likable in person.
and a quick side…. “she makes her money, goes home to put on her bikini, and waits around for mr.dark dick…” HAHAHAHA!!!!!
-
I thought Ginnifer Goodwin looked like the highlight of this movie in the trailer- she’s adorable!
Also, Team Connelly. JA has probably realized she will never, ever get a role as good as Rachel Green for the rest of eternity, and would like to try to keep fooling America that she’s a viable movie star for as long as possible.
-
I am buying this story. JA is ugly. She knows it. She has pretty hair and eyes and that is it. Her hobby is shopping. She sees a shrink. Her mother even said she is ugly.JC on the other hand is a beauty. Nice tight features,she looks good at every angle where Jen has that big nose (2 surgeries can’t even fix it)and horrible chin and jaw. She’s also uneducated. Drew is a little deufy looking so she isn’t a threat. JA KNOWS she’s ugly deep down inside and has nothing much to bring to the table otherwise to make up for it.
-
Jennifer Aniston is my favourite actress of all time! And to be honest i do not believe this story one bit. The tabloids make up some rubbish sometimes and this is hilarious! I doubt this is true at all..
-
I’m not taking sides–I think it’s great if Brad and Angelina are happy, and I hope Aniston finds happiness, too–but I think that most women would feel really insecure like this after being left by their husbands. It can’t be much help to Jen that she can’t buy groceries without seeing her ex-husband and his new partner looking blissful on the cover of every magazine at the checkout.
-
Ha, Douchifer. I like that. Jennifer Aniston is as exciting as a soggy waffle. On a cloudy day. I wish she’d go away.
-
so how come scarjo wasn’t included on the cover either? isn’t she in the movie too?
also, karen, aren’t brad gray and ja friends? i mean they, along with bp, did find plan b together.
-
C’mon people! Beauty is definitely in the eyes of the beholder in this case - and Jen Aniston is quite beautiful. I love how ridiculous most of the haters are on this site… She’s ugly, she’s this, she’s that, ugly nose, etc… Um… you wouldn’t be commenting a gossip page if you had her looks or talent. Leave her alone. Didn’t any of you ever hear of live and let live?
Quite frankly, I’m a little disturbed by this article. I thought this website was a little more professional when it came to scurrilous gossip. Quit the AJ and JA comparisons - Jen wins in class and looks each time. AJ looks like she’s been through a very rough life - don’t fault JA for that.
-
I wouldn’t want to be photographed with JC either! I think JA figures she will be the best looking out of the three girls [not knocking Drew and Ginnifer but you know what I mean]. With JC in the picture, her dark-haired beauty with definitely be the focus and JA and her chin will fade into the background.
BTW, how come you never see a photo shoot of Angelina Jolie with other women? [I’m not a fan of JA or AJ - they’re both way overrated in looks and are very ordinary actresses IMO.]
-
Hey, uh, Ran? Guess what? Just b/c we are posting on a gossip site does not make us untalented, unattractive losers, ok? That’s why we are posting on a gossip site b/c we are so miffed that Hollywood is trying to cram these makeup job, talentless people down our throats. That’s why we are here. Some of us are really annoyed that Hollywood people think we are so dumb that we are gonna buy this shit. Some of us are pissed by the trash of today’s Hollywood & don’t want to go see a film w/a person less talented & less attractive than ourselves on screen. Hey, Larry David isn’t attractive but he is so talented & makes great faces on his show. I wanna see him. Nobody is trying to say he is so gorgeous & hot. JA is a dog. I would be pissed if I came back looking like her in another lifetime. I’d ask to look like Grace Kelly or Taylor. THAT’S WHY WE ARE HERE.
-
I ake offence at Kevins comment that basically suggests if you’re not college educated you’re not worth as much as someone who is.
-
alright, I’m addicted to this site. The melantonin not woking so hard. Hold on, let me please drop one more. Wait, what the F were we talking about? zzz
-
Too bad AC..reading comprehension is fundamental…regardless if you are high school educated or are fortunate enough to have had a higher education. Read the whole post not just every other word if you are going to remark on it. Thank you.
-
It has always been very obvious that Maniston is way too into herself. She was nobody until Brad. Never liked her selfish attitude. just my opinion.
-
Hey uh Nan..? I have to agree with Kevin and his remarks to AC… Read the whole post and not just bits and pieces. Duh… I don’t recall saying that the posters on this site were talentless losers. What I said was that if any of you/us had what Jennifer Aniston had (looks, talent, girl next door image), you wouldn’t be sitting in front of your computer posting hateful comment 3 TIMES on a single article.
You claim to hate Hollywood cramming these folks down your throat, but you’re personally attacking a person you will likely never meet and know nothing about. That includes myself. Jennifer Aniston is not Hollywood - just thought I’d set that record straight. Thanks for taking the melantonin… apparently it was important for you to calm down.
-
I don’t why everyone is saying that it’s too divaish for Jennifer Aniston to do. Doesn’t everyone know the reason “Friends” got kicked off the air is because all the actor/esses kept demanding more and more money? Isn’t that kinda divaish?
-
Don’t believe this - and actually surprised that this site would quote Life and Style? What is that about - everyone knows that this magazine is always wrong. Also really sad that you ran this story and none about Jen and John in Mexico with friends. Really wanted to know about that but had to go to other sites to find the info. Oh wll I thought that this site actually kept up with the interesting stuff but am beginning to change my mind.
-
Ran, um, sweetums. I love this site. Love gossip blogs because most women are too intimidated by me to be my friend. Yes, I am better looking than JA & you probably are, too. I have passions & hobbies & guys coming up a/me like it’s nobody’s business. Now, if you will excuse me, I have a feral colony of cats I need to feed. JA would be dreaming of what earrings to buy next. I’m worried that a feral may be sick & I have to trap his ass & bring to the vet. I’m a world renowned jewelry designer so I can get that shit wholesale. What are JA causes/charities? Oh yeah. Her. So easy for AJ to steal him. She’s a loon but she has passions. Men eat that shit up!
-
BTW, I did go to school for a 4 yr. clip. Right, there, I’m better than JA. (collects can opener, fresh water & a bag of kibble). At least these cats have something hot to look at!
-
It never ceases to amaze me how heated people get about the written tales of celebrities lives…I guess I always assumed everyone knew 90% of this is pure fantasy…every quote is skewed, every TMZ video instigated, and every catfight pulled out of thin air. C’mon…the paps make their money on sensationalism…THIS IS ENTERTAINMENT PEOPLE! Gossip is fun…and it rings about as true as a Dr. Seuss book. Remember that…and click responsibly.

Jennifer Aniston Rocks! She looks great with her new plastic surgery. They made her look like a kid!
And as for Jennifer Connely omg! GAG ME WITH A SPOON! she is stuck up conceited and I couldnt stand her from the second I saw her. Aniston and I are aquarius and we have the sick sense about people just like Oprah is.
Jennifer Connely is a complete fake!
I wouldnt photo next to her either if she started a fight with me. And Jenn , A . has been around forever
you never hear her starting fights so Connely was nasty to her somehow.
That Connely urks me just looking at her!
Go Jen! And Connely shouldve never got any award. She is connected and its all politics! -
AJ vs JA = time to move on ppl they obviously did.. c’mon now it’s been 3 1/2 years!!!
As for Connelly … im sure she couldnt make the photoshoot and now they are making it seem like something.
