Jennifer Aniston in red Valentino at the Oscars: dated, boring or lovely?

Jennifer Aniston was one of presenters-to-watch before the red carpet even began. Everybody had such high hopes, and then she arrived on the red carpet and everybody was like, “Oh. Now I remember. She always looks the same.” When she first arrived, I only saw her from the waist up and I thought she looked so much like THIS – an old Emmys look from, like 1999. Like, I thought she was wearing the same Prada gown that she wore more than a decade ago. But this Valentino was different – it was a different kind of gown for her. She usually doesn’t do the big, full skirts. But other than that, it was exactly the same. I can’t believe she didn’t change it up AT ALL with her hair or makeup – there was nothing “special” about how she styled herself for the Oscars. It was so weird.

Speaking of EXACTLY THE SAME, Justin Theroux put his hand on Jennifer’s stomach and now everyone is like “OMG PREGNANT”. Decide for yourself. I do like Justin better with a beard – although it looks like he’s trying to copy Ben Affleck and George Clooney, right? Like, this looks exactly like Ben’s beard.

Also wearing a shade of red (but it looks more coral here)? Kerry Washington in MiuMiu. This was actually one of my favorite looks of the night! Kerry did something to take away those horrible bangs she had throughout the Oscar season (maybe the bangs were detachable?), and her dress moved beautifully. I think she’s gained some weight back after looking too slender as well. All in all, Kerry was one of the best looks of the evening!

    maybe it’s just the way she carries herself, but if I look at her, Kerry could do with another 5 to ten pounds, just look at her face and neck

  2. Jenn says:

    She doesn’t look awful, but she definitely doesn’t look oscar red carpet worthy either.

    • Jennifer says:

      I disagree. I like the whole look. She doesn’t look done or overdone like everybody else. She looks fresh and lovely. I like the dose of nonchalant and “I don’t care” attitude. It’s nice to see her wearing strong color. BTW beard is a beard. There is no such a thing like “Affleck beard” or “Clooney beard”. You are just mean.

      • Alexandra Bananarama says:

        Jen’s hair always looks so brittle and broken. You can see the broken ends fly up on the top. Why is that? Sun or brushing damage?

        A beard is not just a beard. Certain men really make a style beard their own and then we associate that shape and style beard with that person. We’ve all done it. You’re just not aware that you have.

  3. DanaG says:

    Jennifer was as boring as ever. Does she ever change her hair? The dress is no different then usual just bigger and what happened to her banging body? She looks square and frumpy in it. Doubt she would be pregnant that girl has serious body issues. I loved Kerry Washingtons dress too although her hair and makeup both let her down.

    • Cherry says:

      Jennifer can’t win either way. If she’d gone all out, with a big, spectacular gown everybody would have been like: ‘Ow, look at JA being all LOOK AT ME while she’s not even a nominee.’ I liked her look, actually. She looks classy and modest and a lot more festive than all those nude-colored-gown ladies.
      As for her being pregnant: ugh. I thought we already established that she’s not interested in having kids.

    • Emma - the JP Lover says:

      @DanaG, who wrote: “The dress is no different then usual just bigger and what happened to her banging body? She looks square and frumpy in it.”

      It’s called ‘Stumpy.’ I’ve always thought she looked that way when in strapless dresses. People need to realize that Jennifer Aniston is only a couple of inches taller than Reese Witherspoon. But Reese is (usually) dressed appropriately for her body type and height, ‘and’ she has a waist. The blue dress Reese wore last night, however, was inappropriate for her height and body. I was surprised her stylist let her leave the house in that dress.

      Jennifer has always tried to dress ‘taller’ than her height (hence, all of those 5″ heels), probably hoping the illusion would keep people from realizing just how ‘stumpy’ she really is. The illusion was easier for her to keep while she was younger, but at a certain age ‘short’ people just look short (Dustin Hoffman, Tom Cruise etc).

      And before you guys start in, this isn’t hate (I really don’t hate Jen, I’d just like her a bit more if she stood on her own two feet) it’s just observation and my opinion.

      • Camille (TheOriginal) says:

        I agree. It definitely makes her looks stumpy and square. I think her bad posture in the dress isn’t helping.

  4. Wren says:

    I hadn’t seen the hand on Aniston’s belly, but when I saw the dress I thought it was perfect for hiding a baby bump.

    • Sweet Dee says:

      That’s just a game she likes to play where she tries as subtly as possible to make everyone think she’s pregnant. Then they go home and laugh and laugh over the speculation.

    • Decloo says:

      When I saw Aniston in this dress I said no way she’s pregnant. Where are her boobs?

  5. ntuh says:

    I think jennifer looks good on her red dress

  6. heyu says:

    Lol how does having a beard means he is trying to copy someone??? Haha

  7. emmie_a says:

    Does Kerry have implants in her face? Like cheek or jaw implants? She’s attractive but there is something so off about her when she talks or moves.

    • Oops says:

      yes, perhaps it’s me because recently I have the impression than a lot of actresses look different but there’s something with Kerry. Her hairstyle does not feet the dress and her face, I have never noticed her chin before today a little witherspoon no ?

    • truthSF says:

      Maybe her jaw, but not her cheeks. My sister has the same face shape, complection, and prominant cheek bones. And when she lost a lot of weight, her cheek bones became very visible, like Kerry’s. Thank goodness she gained her weight back.

      Some people’s faces looks better with more meat on it, and Kerry is one of them.

  8. Lisa says:

    Dress is ok. Can’t she do something with different with her hair for an event? I think it looks completely off with the gown.

    • Hipocricy says:

      This !

      Dress is pretty but hair is still a mess. I would have opt for a loose chignon.

      Theroux’s combination of short skinny legs with broad long torso is even more noticeable in that tuxedo.

      The beard is ok though it ages him alot.

    • Call Me Al says:

      The dress was beautiful but boring. The hair was boring. the makeup boring. : (

    • j.eyre says:

      I agree the hair and the gown were a bit mismatched but I, personally, don’t think she looks very good with her hair up in anything more than a ponytail, which I think would have been inappropriate for the dress and neckline. She dresses safe, like I do. I can’t pull flashy off.

  9. Arlene says:

    I liked the colour on her, thought she might have gone differently with her hair though.

  10. heyu says:

    I like aniston dress based the fact its a different colour and structure for her..

    But that hair argh!! She needs to sake her hairstylist.. Its either a case of him being too lazy or she just refusing to go out of her comfort zone when it comes to her hair.

    A better hairstyle and a statment necklace would have made this overall look pop

    She is getting there, just needs to jazz the hair up(either get a new hairstyllist or decided to get out of that comfort zone)

    Justin looks good to me. He looks hotter with a beard , and I think they make a cute couple

  11. Miss Kiki says:

    JenAn looks boring as per.

    Kerii looks great aside from the hair. I hate middle partings nearly as much as Kaiser hates bangs.

    • Jayna says:

      Exactly. If she had parted her hair on the side, with swept-over long side bags it would have added more glamour, instead of a casual middle part.

      • alc says:

        Thank you!! I hate the middle part. It is so lame. Why was Jennifer even there? Does she do movies anymore or is her main job squiring her Ken Doll around. Very odd. In fact, I thought the whole Oscar evening was odd. Everyone seemed just a little off, or more tense than just nerves.

      • Miss Kiki says:

        ‘Squiring her Ken Doll around’ MegaLolz

  12. Granger says:

    I could forgive Aniston’s boring hair if she did something a little more dramatic with her make-up; and I could forgive the bland make-up if she did something different with her hair. I don’t mind the dress, though.

    • heyu says:

      The makeup is ok I think, the color of her dress is very srong, ifshe had worn very powerful makeup she likely end up looking like a clown.

      What need to stop this look was the hair.. And as usual its a dissapointment smh

      A dress like that doesn’t deserve to be served with shitty hair like that.

  13. GiGi says:

    I get that JA was just presenting, but it looks like she literally just put the dress on with her everyday hair/makeup look. That’s weird, right?

  14. Hannah says:

    I don’t understand the big deal about Aniston’s hair. It’s average at fucking best.

    • Jen34 says:

      I swear my hair always looks like that, which is why I never leave the house without a hair band either in my bag or on my wrist.

  15. lol says:

    Aniston is ugly and manly.
    Washington looks like lollipop.

  16. Hipocricy says:

    Kerry’s dress looks pretty.

    I like her face but her jaw isn’t made for smiles. She also looks better with a bang to shorten that long face.

  17. Kerry was one of my faves too! She’s just so beautiful and this was the perfect dress for her.

    I kind of like Jennifer’s dress (at least it’s not black!) but it desperately needed an updo and maybe a necklace.

    Justin looks better with a beard.

  18. Maxine says:

    Why is Aniston’s hair sticking up? Like in the back she needs gel or something. Same ole look. . . . Washington however looks beautiful.

    • Janet says:

      It’s sticking up because it’s breaking off.

      • Lulu says:

        I don’t know… She has naturally wavey/curly hair like mine, and I just took a flat iron to mine out of boredom, and I had a bunch of those little short fly-ups too. And for the record, I don’t use a brush ever, or color my hair. And I use a LOT of good moisturizer. We have had Santa Ana conditions here in CA and the dry air can make anyone’s hair stand on end!

  19. lisa2 says:

    I’m surprised that people are surprised that she did and looked the way she always does and has. If she was going to make some change it would have happened by now.

    And the whole baby watch is old. I don’t think 44 is old by any means. But for a woman 44 to be having her first child is huge and her fans should really stop. I thought she had another movie lined up.

    and yes all the talk about hair being the best in hollywood is stupid. Her hair doesn’t look any better then anyone else. And I thought this would have been a good time for her to promote her hair for that line she is doing.

    • Kim says:

      I forgot about the hair care company she co owns.I agree she could have used the Oscars to showcase her line with a knockout style. In the video on RC her hair doesn’t look…it looks meh.

  20. Bowers says:

    Jennifer looks good. She’s 44 for crying out loud, not 22.

    • ahoyhoy says:

      Nicole Kidman & Naomi Watts are her contemporaries, and they ALWAYS change it up on the red carpet. They both take risks with hair, make-up, and gown and it’s refreshing.
      Her age is no excuse for being uncreative on Oscar night. You make it sound like we’re yelling at the lady in the wheelchair to stop being lazy.

    • Toot says:

      She looks 44 too.

      Also, Jennifer keeps that same hair style to hide her face(jaw and chin) behind.

      • themummy says:

        And what exactly us wrong with that? Jesus…she’s 44…she should look 44….

      • Toot says:

        @ themummy

        There is nothing wrong with looking 44. I’m just tired of people saying she looks younger than that, because she doesn’t.

  21. Esti says:

    I too wish Aniston would do something with her hair (and I think the dress was a nice step outside her norm, and would have been great with an updo). She must have serious hair security blanket issues, such that she only thinks she’s pretty with it down.

    But Kaiser, I can’t believe you liked Kerry’s look. I thought the dress was cute but nothing special, and I found HER hair way more irritating than Aniston’s — it didn’t even look like she’d bushed it! And I really don’t think she’s gained any weight, she still looks scary-thin in her face and upper body.

    • tracking says:

      I agree with you on all counts. Though Aniston might also be wearing her hair down as part of her hair product contract. But agree an updo would have been better.

  22. WTF says:

    Jennifer looks boring as hell. I will never understand what the big deal is about her hair. Average at best just like her looks. Her hair is too blond,she looks washed out.

    • gogoGorilla says:

      Her hair did have a modern moment. In 1999. I love her dress here, but the hair is boring old same old. She really does not do change well.

    • yolo112 says:

      I don’t know if you saw or watch E! and their ‘off the red carpet’ path to party, but you could clearly see the tracks from her extensions in the back of her “amazing” hair. There was a big chunk stuck/parted around the extension. It was pretty funny to see because everyone forever has been all OMG about her hair. And, btw, I’m surprised no one tried to get a better picture of her massive cloudy quartz looking ring..??

  23. poppy says:

    manniston is forever stuck in the 1990s but the dress and color were a change. she tried. with everyone else about her hair. tired.
    kerry’s dress looks phenomenal on her.
    i never noticed her bobble head before and her face looks gaunt 🙁

  24. ruby says:

    Not impressed with Aniston’s dress. I didn’t really know what to expect, and I have to hand it to her, she did surprise me. But it’s boring, weirdly cut, and a too orangey shade of red. Not pleasing to the eye, and the very full skirt clashes with her lowkey styling.

    Also, her belly seems to be bulging under that tailored bodice… I’m predicting another round of bumpwatch. To those that say it’s not possible to conceive at 44 : my aunt had her first child at 44, without any fertility treatments. So it is possible. However, it’s not easy, and she would need to be trying, which seems highly unlikely to me. She just doesn’t seem interested in children. So, I say not pregnant, and wear some spanx, lady !

    As for Kerry, meh. It’s not ugly, but it doesn’t stand out that much either.

  25. lucy2 says:

    I liked Jen’s dress – perfect for a presenter. Her hair and makeup looked good, but for everyday, not the Oscars. I agree a bit more effort there would have been nice.

    I wasn’t sure about Kerry’s dress, but it’s growing on me. It’s different, and she looked great. Still a bit too skinny for her frame though.

    • Katherine says:

      Aniston’s make-up was bland yet what was up with the overdone and clumpy mascara? Looked horrible.

      For whatever reasons Aniston doesn’t want to highlight her facial features. But at some point she needs to just go with it – someone like Anne Hathaway is also far from beautiful with some odd features but she accepts it and goes with it and Anne usually ends up looking stunning.

      Same sense of masking with Aniston’s hair – she doesn’t want to risk showing her ears – they are huge.

      Red dress or not Aniston behaves like she is hiding. She is quite the contradiction because she seems to seek attention but she also betrays a reluctance to go all out from her hair to her washed out face, to her slumpy posture, to her insecure and inarticulate speech. She didn’t go into decades of therapy for nothing it would seem.

      Sadly for an actor, this reluctant or reticence shows in her acting.

  26. Kim says:

    Jennifer looks good from the neck down.The more popular Kerry gets the skinnier she gets.Oh I forgot Jennifer’s tabloid created baby bump hasn’t grown since January.Im sure OKmagazine will update us on her twins this week.

  27. lflips says:

    Jennifer Aniston is dated and boring in general so are we really that surprised by her look? Kerry looked great but I think she needs to gain some weight – her head looks too big for her body.

  28. Agnes says:

    As usual, JA is stuck in the late 90s/early 00s. The dress is pretty, just kind of meh. She prob thought she would pop in it because of the color, but it’s just the usual blah Aniston. And the hair, good lord. Do something with it once in a while. Dated and boring.

  29. spinner says:

    I really liked Jen’s dress. Very different from her normal choices. She should have changed up her hair — gone really full or a nice loose chignon. On the whole I thought she looked great. I like Justin’s beard. They make a very attractive couple.

    Kerry looks off. Bobblehead-ish & what is going on with her mouth?? Don’t care for the dress — too much embellishment at the bodice.

  30. judyjudy says:

    Dress is lovely. Hair is….Aniston.

  31. Isa says:

    Did she borrow Jennifer Lawrence’s red dress and take the belt off?
    I do like that she’s not wearing black!

  32. ray says:

    aniston’s hair is overrated. she needs her hairdresser 24/7 just to make it look decent. she is the most high maintenance HW actress, its like she has her hairdresser and make up artist with her 24/7. anyway, she looks the most ordinary looking presenter during the award show, tatum channing looks better than her. she should lay off from skin lasers, its making her look old.

  33. Paige says:

    As always she wore the same hairstyle. Jennifer, you are at the Academy Awards and don’t you pay millions for a stylist. The dress is just blah.There isn’t anything about her that said “wow”. Is it just me or does Jennifer Aniston look like Barbara Streisand? I’ve been thinking this for years, but really thought so watching her perform last night. I think it’s the nose and hair, another reason to get a new style.

  34. Joanna says:

    I like JA’s dress; very pretty. I also like her hair and makeup. I like her natural look; prefer that over caked-on makeup and too-tight clothes (see KK). Can you imagine what KK would have looked like? Also like Justin’s beard. Also her “belly” might be due to her age; it’s harder to take it off as you get older and she might be relaxing on her workouts like most of us do when we have a steady bf.

    • Katherine says:

      Despite the blandness of the make-up you can see in close-ups that her make-up does look caked on – especially the eye lashes. The facial make-up is clearly visible and it’s not natural looking.

      How can her skin look that rough when she has spent so much attention on it – she has herself said she has laser treatments to smooth it out and it’s clear she uses fillers and who knows what else.

      Unfortunately I think she just has bad genes for skin.

  35. NerdMomma says:

    I have to ask: Why was Jennifer Aniston at the Oscars? I don’t dislike her by any means. But she has never been nominated, she makes boring movies and she’s not a particularly talented actress. She doesn’t belong there. Maybe she’s not being risky with fashion because she knows she’s not supposed to be there. Her publicist got her a presenting gig or whatever.

    • spinner says:

      She is on the board & she was asked to present. She had every reason to be there.

      • jill says:

        The ones who are nominated or are previous winners have every right to be there.

        Jen who has never been nominated, will never be nominated and has never been in an Oscar nominated film looks out of place like Kristen Stewart etc.

        She is walking the carpet like she belongs there, when with her lack of talent she really does not belong at the Oscars.

        I do not care that her publicist got her on the Oscar board or whatever.

      • Katherine says:

        Aniston is not on any “board” – she recently became a member of the Academy.

        Sally Kirkland has more of a right to be walking that red carpet than Aniston does. Not all those who participated in the show walked the red carpet. Russell Crowe an Oscar winner and 3 time nominee who performed last night chose to skip the red carpet. Unless I missed it I also didn’t see Barbra Streisand walk the red carpet. Did Meryl Streep walk the red carpet – if she did I missed that as well.

        The red carpet should be reserved for nominees and past winners and nominees.

  36. LadyAnne says:

    For god’s sake woman change your hair once in a while !! I’m so sick of her hairstyle.

  37. ataylor says:

    Both dresses were “meh” — not only that, but I thought Kerry Washington’s dress was coral/orange and Aniston’s tomato/orange. Those colors don’t look good on camera.

    And frankly, I thought Aniston looked like a younger version of Babs. And I don’t mean that as a compliment. Would have loved to see her with Reese Witherspoon’s Oscar hairdo.

  38. Alicia says:

    JA looked great! No pretentious bs from her. She looks, in my opinion, much younger than some of the 30 something year olds… Especially some that weren’t even present at the Oscars!!!

    And the hand on the stomach? Good grief! It is NOT on her stomach. He was simply pulling her closer to have photo made. If it wasn’t for the haters, pregnancy rumors would never come up!

  39. Nicolette says:

    *Yawn* Same old Aniston, big surprise.

  40. Gracielove says:

    Why in the world would Jennifer Aniston even be at the Oscars? There is not a chance in hell that her work would ever be honored or she’d even be a million miles within reach of getting one.

    She peaked with her performance in Office Space. Same hair, same makeup, same dress, same boring personality. Yawn.

    • Nicolette says:

      +1000

    • Kim says:

      She is on the board of something affliated with the Academy.

    • Alicia says:

      Seriously? I know you probably loathe Aniston, but seriously, that question is beyond reprehensible.

      • Janet says:

        Why is it reprehensible? She simply stated a fact, however little you may like it. Aniston’s only real claim to fame in Hollywood is having made a career out of being dumped by Brad Pitt.

      • G says:

        Exactly. She’s like an ad for 1999. Leaving tv for film was a huge mistake. She has zero cinematic presence. Why would they need a B- list presenter?

      • Alicia says:

        And she laughs all the way to the bank…. The bitterness you are projecting is laughable!

      • Kim says:

        Name some standout roles in her movie career that would warrant her being invited to present multiple times.I have no problem with her presenting at GG or SAGs her films have been nominated for those.

  41. Abby says:

    I loved Jennifer’s dress and I was distracted by how fabulously toned her arms are. She’s 15 years older than me and I’d kill for her arms.

  42. I.want.shoes says:

    I’m just happy she didn’t do the usual short, black dress with strappy sandals. But yeah, she could have tried a little harder with the hair.

    • Tara says:

      Exactly. At least the dress isn’t LBD. She looks pretty in third and fourth pics. But unexceptional.

  43. Dingo says:

    I think justin and jen looked good – except for her make-up that was a little to understated. But I don’t get why people hate it so much. She is not the big star at the Oscars, she is just there as a presenter.

    Wauw in the 2. pic Kerrys head is enormous – but the dress is a nice color for her.

  44. Happymom says:

    On the plus side-that’s the best Justin has ever looked.

  45. Maritza says:

    Beautiful dresses!

  46. Lizzie K says:

    I think Jennifer Anniston is too old for that dress,, and she’s starting to look her age, too.

    Nothing about this woman makes me think she wants or will ever have a child.

    WHY is she always at movie awards shows? Her movies are uniformly terrible, and she has never even been nominated for a movie award, at least that I can remember.

  47. i'm french don't kill me says:

    Anniston looks good :her look is not a revolution but it’s better than Anne Hathaway’s baby pink apron

  48. Kara says:

    She always wears her hair down because it acts as a curtain for her face! It hides half her weird shaped face.

    She has no confidence to wear her hair up. It shows her plain face too much.

    • prez says:

      sorry you are wrong there. She has worn her hair up/ out of her face for premieres etc. so don’t think it’s a confidence issue. I prefer her hair out of her face – looks nicer. but do agree it was boring!

      • Kara says:

        Yes she has, but very,very rarely.
        It is mostly down, and when she wears it up it makes her face look worse than usual because you can see how weird the shape is.

        Most of the time half her face is covered in her hair.

        And her saying Kim Stewart calling her homely ruined her night and her constant wearing of scarfs over THAT chin tell be she has problems in the coincidence department.

      • Emma - the JP Lover says:

        @Prez …

        When has Jennifer Aniston ever worn her hair up out of her face?? And I’m not talking about “Friends,” where the decision wasn’t hers, I’m talking about events or on the Red Carpet. I would dearly love to see pictures of her out and about with her hair up. Photos?

    • Tara says:

      You know… I think if she wore her hair up, she and we would find she at least has an interesting face. Trying to conform to the increasingly narrow definitions of beauty is doing none of us any favors.

  49. suzanne says:

    Jennifer looks understated and I think it worked for her. However, I do think I would of went with a softer color to highlight her perennial hint of tan she always sports.

  50. prez says:

    i love me some Jen.

    I understanding she was a presenter, so being too flashy would be ‘uncool’. BUT man, can we please have some variance in the hair for these kind of events. I mean i’ve seen her do a bun, a pony tail and gorgeous waves. Could it have killed her? she’s selling hair products! Look like it, please!
    Otherwise, i really like the gown – it’s not her usual style, and she was glowing (Celebitchy as usual gets the worst shots – go to gettyimages for better ones).

  51. Memphis says:

    I thought of her red dress with Brad days as soon as I saw the look. She didn’t look bad, she just never really “brings it”

  52. Jm says:

    Even as a presenter for 30 seconds, JA looks so out of place among “real” actors. Yes she makes a ton of movies, but lacks movie-star quality. TV – specifically, a big ensemble – is where she belongs.

  53. blonde on the dock says:

    I would have liked to see her do something interesting with her hair. Otherwise she looked fabulous. Loved her dress!

  54. Dorothy says:

    Valentino is never dated or boring. It’s always Fab!

  55. d says:

    I liked Jen’s dress, but I agree that a loose chignon and a side part would have looked better…ooomph it up a bit. That hair down look is a bit tired on her now. Actually, I don’t that that poofy look suits her…she would have looked better with a slimmer dress imo. Her looks dry at top too. Hm. I don’t know, maybe she just can’t be bothered.
    Washington looks great. I love that dress.

  56. Marianne says:

    I’m glad Jennifer chose Red and not her signature Black…but it still feels same old same old.

  57. Jess says:

    JA was nice but boring – so predictable. And I love Kerry (she’s beautiful, love Scandal), but didn’t like her dress.

  58. Dani V says:

    How old is JA? In her early forties, right. Getting pregnant for the first time will be a difficult task. Surogacy would be more likely for her if she wants a child. I don’t understand the constant pregnancy stories and don’t follow her enough to know if she is the one playing the press as suggested. Is this so from those in the know?

    I like the color of the dress but wish like many that she would have done something different with her hair.

    the best joke of the night wasnt from Seth! it was that Jenn presented the award for hair and makeup!!!!!! she was in her “Friends” hair, and didnt even use some “gel hands” to smooth the top down!! Plus her tan makeup makes her look like “tan mom”. sorry, would it KILL you to cut the hair? What, did she have a heart attack when Keri Russell cut her hair and said “NOT ME EVER”? i mean, at this point, she should realize she will never do anything but present, if she doesnt cut the dumb Barbie hair and maybe have her face cool to pale and play a serial killer or something!!! Does she have NO ONE telling her, “enough with that hair already”?????
    so, lets recap….best joke of the night? Ok BESIDES that the camera wouldnt pan back even a quarter of an inch during Hathaways speech so she didnt show her Madonna cones, was Maniston, stuck in the ’90’s, giving the award for hair and makeup, while doing “that thing” where she sweeps the front of her hair out of her eyes. Oh Rachel, i mean Jenn….well, same diff.

      She had her cut to a bob in like Season 6 of Friends, and I remember reading about how much she hated it.

  60. Joyce says:

    Say what you want about her body but her face in the 3rd pic doesn’t look good at all even with the make-up. Her face is not aging well from all the sun bath.

  61. Mara says:

    Jennifer looks so beautiful in this red gown lovely looking couple.

  62. Diana says:

    Jennifer Aniston was such a bore! she looked exactly as she looks for any event. I hated Kerry’s hair, there was something wrong with it, but the dress was gorgeous. I also think Justin looks a lot better with a beard.

  63. Amanda says:

    I don’t know. At least Jennifer is not wearing black. Baby steps…

  64. Chell says:

    I actually love the dress & the jewelry. However, I think the hair ruins the whole look! It is way too casual of a look with such a beautiful gown.
    I don’t know if it was the lighting or bad make up, but she truly looks like she has done a number on her face with all the sunbathing. IMO, there is a huge difference between aging gracefully & sun damage. I can’t put my finger on it, but she doesn’t have a ‘healthy appearance’.

    • Camille (TheOriginal) says:

      Completely agree.

      Had this dress been on a tall, slender woman like Charlize it would have looked great. But on Aniston it looks frumpy and stumpy.
      If she had worn her hair in soft waves like Reese or had it up off her face the whole look would have been much better.

      On a plus note, her man friend looks much better with the beard.

  65. TXCinderella says:

    Jennifer always plays it safe. She looks classic and timeless, but on the red carpet that equals boring. Kerry’s dress is stunning.

  66. Nikita says:

    What the most people dont understand , if aniston does something different with her hair, an up do or something like this, you would see the very manly shape of her face and thats what she trys to aviod since shes been compared all the time with angelina and we all know she cant win. shes not ugly but if the media compares you all the time with someone like The Jolie, come on, who wouldnt be uncomftable with that? We can look at older pics, jen had her hair up and a pony tail and her face looked very very manly.

      @Nikita …

      Thank you for the visual! But man, her third nose ‘really’ stood out with her hair up, didn’t it? This nose would probably look okay.

      And how stoned and neurotic can one person sound in a video?

  67. anonymous fan says:

    That is because she IS boring.Jennifer’s movies are boring and so is her personal style,hair make up,etc.She is an expert in playing it safe.Jennifer would no more wear an exciting dress than star in a good dramatic movie Like The Impossible or Zero Dark Thirty that could actually get a nomination.

  68. Shannon says:

    This red gown was actually one of my favorite if the evening. Call me boring. And doesn’t Jen usually wear black? This is something different for her. I also thought her body looked good in it. She has a tiny waist.

  69. skuddles says:

    It’s nice to see Aniston wearing something besides her usual black but the boring, flyaway hair is just ugh. And why is her posture always so schlumpy? Lack of confidence?

  70. Amelia says:

    JA has very dated hair. It looks damaged and broken and overly-processed. She needs to change things up and get a new look.

  71. ShaCur says:

    I usually stay far away from anything Jennifer Aniston, but this dress was….so awful. The only thing I can think of when I look at her is that it looks like she was out with friends trying on bridesmaid dresses. That weird moment when you’re standing in a dressing room in a really pretty dress trying to imagine what a pair of great heels and the right jewelry and hair would do for it. It’s also way, way too young for her. Not that I’m saying she’s old, but this is suited for someone much more youthful and elegant, not beachy and laid back.

  72. Katie says:

    Kudos to her for wearing something other than black but i’m not sure about this dress! It’s a gorgeous dress don’t get me wrong but something is missing…… Hmm….

  73. Luxe says:

    I like the dress, but she ruins it with the hair!! Is she seriously so stuck in her ways that she won’t even entertain some sort of loose pinup?!

  74. Lucy Goosy says:

    I am not bothered by her hair or her dress. I am, however, bothered by her gum smacking while she was presenting the award. The only person with an attitude worse than hers last night was Kristen Stewart.

  75. Caroline says:

    Jennifer looks better than she did a decade ago 🙂

  76. Jan says:

    NOT good. Would be better if the dress was pressed and didn’t look like she slept in it with all the wrinkles. The boyfriend looks unwashed and greasy.

  77. salamanca says:

    I like Jennifer’s dress, but not on her. That’s not her color.
    But I just love Kerry’s dress. It’s really lovely; she looks georgous in that coral dress.

  78. Shelley says:

    The fabric of JA’s dress is so odd – like recycled plastic. I don’t like the color of it, at least, not on her. But Justin – HE is the true bobblehead here! What an unappealing, stubby, oily looking man he is. He looks peevish when he isn’t smiling and forced and creepy when he is, with (I think) badly done fake teeth. And his body is so oddly disproportionate in clothing – not going to even think about him without!

  79. stinkyman says:

    Just to be truthful for a minute and not quite as bittchy as usual. The flowing red dress on Aniston made a fantastic contrast in the circle of black on the stage. It was the perfect choice and I thought her simple long flowing hair was a nice match for the dress.
