Jennifer Aniston’s stripper moves: ‘I have a stripper pole in my house now’

Yesterday, I wrote about Jennifer Aniston’s appearance on Chelsea Lately, but, like, none of you read it. Which doesn’t bother me that much, because the interview was incredibly boring. At least, I thought it was boring until I came across some quotes from the interview which were not included in the video excerpts being disseminated. Apparently, Chelsea was telling Jennifer about a recent appearance she (Chelsea) made on Katie Couric’s daytime talk show, and Aniston interrupted Chelsea to shade Couric. Hard.

Jennifer Aniston has never appreciated people prying into her personal life — least of all Katie Couric, who hosts her own syndicated daytime talk show. During a July 31 appearance on E!’s Chelsea Lately, Aniston dissed the 56-year-old TV personality and debunked a recent tabloid rumor about life with Justin Theroux.

Aniston’s BFF Chelsea Handler began by reading an except from a recent magazine article which claimed the couple are nudists: “Jen’s started to embrace her curves at home since longtime lover, nudist Justin, has persuaded her to join in on the fun,” the comedienne read. “She was hesitant at first but now she finds it extremely liberating and they spend entire days at home without any clothes on and even cook naked.”

Theroux’s fiancee rolled her eyes and asked, “What are you reading? Star magazine? We don’t walk around nude, darling.”

Handler then told Aniston, “I’ve seen Justin nude, I hope you know that.” The We’re the Millers star laughed and replied, “Yeah, well, that’s because you barge into places you shouldn’t be. But he’s comfortable enough in his skin.” In regards to the Star story, Aniston clarified, “That’s not true. It’s B.S.”

Handler then admitted to Aniston that it’s difficult being friends with someone so famous. “Katie Couric was asking me on her show about your wedding and I had to act like I didn’t even know you were engaged because I didn’t know that was out,” she explained. “Then she was like, ‘Well, everyone knows about it!’ So, I felt really stupid.”

Clearly annoyed, Aniston, 44, asked, “What’s Katie Couric? Is she a legitimate journalist? Is she getting tabloidy? Wasn’t she on the Today show?”

“She was on the Today show,” said Handler, who accompanied Couric to the White House Correspondents Dinner in May 2010. “She got a demotion to her own show.”

“Is she a legitimate journalist? Is she getting tabloidy?” Says the woman who organizes “Five Years After Brad” People Magazine covers. Who uses a Vogue Magazine interview to slam Angelina Jolie. I’m just saying… I have no idea why Jennifer Aniston is getting on her high horse (operative word: high) about the tabloid media. For the love of God, SHE SAID THAT ON CHELSEA LATELY. Maybe in Jennifer’s mind, Chelsea Handler is a legitimate journalist? Like, Chelsea Lately is the New York Times of talk shows? And Katie Couric is not? Also, I think it’s a bit rich for any American celebrity to be like “Who’s Katie Couric? What is she? What’s that?” We can argue about Katie Couric’s journalistic credentials, but don’t try to pull some half-assed shade by pretending not to know who she is or what she does.

In addition to that mess, you’ll note (again) that Aniston bashes Star Magazine. Which is fine. Star Magazine is not Katie Couric. But it’s funny considering this week’s Star Mag is running a “new interview” with Aniston. For the record, I don’t believe Jennifer sat down for an interview with Star. I think Star culled these quotes from Aniston’s first press junket for We’re the Millers, because several of these quotes have already been used by the AP, USA Today and other outlets. But it just struck me as funny. And there are new quotes:

On her wedding plans: “There have been no canceled or postponed weddings. There have been no arguments about where to get married. We have yet to set any date. We just want to do it when it’s perfect, we’re not rushed and no one is rushing from a job or rushing to a job. And you know, we already feel married.”

Playing a stripper: “They had to drag me out of that strip club every night! It was a little uncomfortable at first. You’re on set with a bunch of crew, but when they rolled the cameras I just had to bite the bullet. I worked with this amazing choreographer and learned some pretty amazing moves, so it just became easy and really fun. I have a stripper pole in my house now. Me, Paris Hilton and Kate Hudson.”

Does she think she’s sexy? “Nobody thinks of themselves as sexy, really. Some days you go, ‘Hey, I’m not doing too bad today.’ But if you try to be sexy, you’ll never be sexy.”

[From Star Magazine, print edition]

It’s the stripper pole stuff that fascinated me. Is she joking around or did she really get a stripper pole installed in her new house, along with her margarita fountain? Man, Justin really hit the jackpot, didn’t he? A rich California divorcee with a margarita fountain and a stripper pole. It’s so Real Housewives.

    There is just too much gold in this thread..

    She did say one thing that is so true..

    “But if you try to be sexy, you’ll never be sexy”

    *** very true.. which is why she never gets there.

    • paola says:

      Exactly. if i think of Jennifer Aniston i don’t think of sexy. if i think of Jennifer Aniston with a stripper pole i immediately think ‘Attention seeker’-

    • Camille (TheOriginal) says:

      +1.

      Furthest thing from sexy ever.

  2. Andrew says:

    Can’t stand her but I do like her acting in some of her comedies (not rom-cons though). I think we’re the millers looks great personally, I just wish she would shut her large mouth

  3. abbie246 says:

    Am I missing something? Why have there been 2 or 3 Aniston stories every day? Especially considering there’s nothing new(pregnancy story, engagement, etc)? And I know that I can skip the stories which I do. I just don’t get why everybody think she’s so fascinating all of the sudden.

    • Funcakes says:

      When I see a JA story I usually roll my eyes. I come to this site to read about JA because it’s more of a goof.

      There are sites that will have a boring kiss butt interview. While CB will write a funny story as to say,” Yawn! Here’s another story about Jennifer being wild and crazy . Yawn!”.

  4. tracking says:

    The stripper pole sounded like a joke. Anyway, just saw a premiere pic and am pleasantly surprised. She wore a gorgeous muted eggplant, longer-than-usual dress and looks quite lovely. Justin in cute red suspenders. Finally got it right I think!

    • Holt says:

      A sentence with Paris Hilton and Kate Hudson in it…. Yes, she was being extremely sarcastic!!! But people will take this quote and turn it, twist it, and analyze it, to make it sound as THEY want it to. Bless their hearts! Aniston is laughing all the way to the bank.

  5. Samanthalous says:

    Lies Lies Lies, we all know she is as stiff and uptight as a brick.

    • Veeeery Veerytas says:

      “She was hesitant at first but now she finds it extremely liberating and they spend entire days at home without any clothes on and even cook naked.”

      Sounds like a Seinfeld plot to me.

  6. Sisi says:

    Eh. Many women have a pole in their home for pole dancing. It’s a good sport, great for muscletoning and strength. It’s been a while though since I’ve heard anyone call it a stripper pole though… <_<'

  7. RHONYC says:

    ummm…no one read it ’cause perhaps she’s a less than stimulating topic. 😕

    hint-hint Kaiser…hint-hint.

  8. Katie says:

    Give it up, Jennifer. “We Are the Millers” (or whatever it’s called) will be the latest in your list of flops.

    • La jolie says:

      +1000000

    • Nicolette says:

      Like she cares as she’s laughing all the way to the bank cashing in on millions more? And the amazing thing is it will be followed up by another flop and another check. And so on and so on.

    • Holt says:

      Yes, a FLOP that has her as the “4th Highest Paid” actress…

    • Andrew says:

      Actually I think it’ll do we’ll for a comedy. She seems to be back on track with selecting decent movies. Horrible bosses was awesome and definitely not a flop.

  9. who know says:

    Excuse me. I’m not a English native speaker. But, whenever I read JA’s interview, I’m impressed that the words of her are really simple and easy. Her level of using vocas is low? I’m just curious. She makes sentences very agressive or negative style and uses very low-level words…aka easy and not sophiscated…I think. Sorry for my poor English!

    • who know says:

      Oops double post! Sorry!
      Anyway,,
      I can’t understand how Brad Pitt endured this woman’s shallwaness and even why chose this woman as his life partner, gosh…Was he dumb?…I dont thinks so. His filmography is saying that HE’S NOT DUMB. So then…why?

      • La jolie says:

        He later woke up to reality and moved on..m

      • Emma - the JP Lover says:

        @Who Know, who wrote: “I can’t understand how Brad Pitt endured this woman’s shallwaness and even why chose this woman as his life partner, gosh…Was he dumb?…I dont thinks so. His filmography is saying that HE’S NOT DUMB. So then…why?”

        Well, there are several theories on exactly ‘why’ Brad Pitt married Jennifer Aniston. The main theory is he married her on the rebound following the break up of his intense relationship with Gwyneth Palthrow,to whom he was engaged. Brad was ripe for the picking: he was at ‘that certain age’ men sometimes reach where they want marriage and children.

        No one agrees on how Brad and Jen’s first ‘Blind Date’ occurred, but we can all agree the set up ‘did not’ come from Brad elbowing his Agent saying “Man, Jennifer Aniston is fine! You have got to hook us up.”

        The buzz is their Agents set them up on a date, thinking it would be a good publicity match. Brad was single at the time, but Jen was involved in a 3-year relationship with Tate Donovan, so the Agents couldn’t have thought “These are two lonely kids … why don’t we fix them up?” There is also little to no lag-time between when Jennifer and Tate Donovan split up in April 1998 and Jen and Brad ‘Blind Date’ in May 1998.

        Rumors say Jen ‘Googled’ Brad before their ‘date’ so she’d know his likes and dislikes.

        Jennifer Aniston admitted to Jay Leno on the “Tonight Show” that she slept with Brad on their first ‘Blind Date.’

        Brad has admitted to being stoned out of his mind from 1998 through 2003, when he suddenly woke up and thought “What the hell am I doing with my life?”

    • Kiddo says:

      I don’t know if this comment is a goof or for real, but it made me laugh out loud. Thanks.

      *The first comment, that is.

  10. Mimi says:

    No post on how she wore a super unflattering purple dress to the premiere that made her look 100% pregnant? She is seriously just trolling at this point, no one would choose to look like that without playing some angle.

  11. lisa says:

    yawn tootsie yawn

  12. Bea says:

    I think you forgot to mention how she sat there while Handler made racist remarks about black men and Aniston did nothing which is shocking you know because of all that injustice fighting she said she was going to do.

    I’m sure she just forgot since she had to prepare for the oh so reliable “is she/isn’t she” pregnant photos at her premiere for her next blink and you’ll miss it in theatres flop.

    How insulting for the rest of the cast that she decides to steal the spotlight (wearing a shiny sausage casing that would auf her from Project Runway in a heartbeat) just get those tabs (the ones she hates btw)fired up about a possible baby when it’s probably gas.

    Publicty hound, thy name is Aniston.

  13. Katherine says:

    I’ve said this before but Aniston in her more natural, less attractive or, shall we say, not in her trying-too-hard look is a much more interesting looking person.

    She may not be her own delusional image of “cute” or “bleached blonde and tanned surfer girl” but it is a look that could serve her career much better. Now if only she would actually try to act.

    So in the end I find her more attractive when she is natural looking even though it may be considered by some to be homelier. If that makes any sense. LOL!

  14. Lem says:

    I read it. I will forever now use the phrase “walking the lawns”

    Eta: yesterday the posts were weird. I always read over all the posts with my first cup of coffee, then come back a few hours later when it seems a couple more posts are added and things.moved around. Yesterday morning there were only a handfull of new posts but when I checked back there were loads of posts I hadn’t seen. Based on the comment numbers, everyone else missed them yesterday morning as well.

  15. Nicolette says:

    “Nobody thinks of themselves as sexy, really.” Sorry, but I beg to differ. I am almost damn sure Angie knows full well how sexy she is. If you got it, you got it. If you don’t, you don’t.

    • Holt says:

      Breadsticks are NOT sexy….!!!

      • Evyn says:

        People who are not self-centered and shallow have different definitions of sexy. Angie is a brilliant, loving, and caring person with one of the most beautiful faces on the planet. She doesn’t need to walk around in teenaged clothes, braless, or with her chest hanging out. That’s why her exes can’t stop gushing about her.

  16. Raquel says:

    She’s starting to turn into a Madonna. You know, that aging former sex symbol who is so unbelievably desperate to be sexy like a 20 something that she passes up the chance to be sexy like someone her age.

    • Veeeery Veerytas says:

      She had her chance, but all she did was tease us. Now she’s starting to look frumpy.

      • Raquel says:

        Frumpy is a good word for it. I also agree that this smacks of regret for not doing the full-sex symbol thing when she was a real star in the 1990s.

        It is just not pretty, in a very uncomfortable way, when a woman in her mid-40s (in Madonna’s case, her 50s) so obviously works out like mad and probably has/will have surgeries so she can keep a much younger body type, then choses to take 20/30 something year old career choices. It smacks of having over-invested in your youthfulness (not that middle aged women cannot be youthful, they certainly can. But the desperate middle aged woman who is still taking sex kitten & stripper roles and posing for midriff shots? That ain’t youthful, that’s shallowly attached to your 20 year old self).

        If she doesn’t watch herself, she’s going to be Sigourney Weaver’s character in ‘Baby Mama.’ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dnfl290-aIY Oh, wait, she already is. A smart woman would want to be Sigourney Weaver, not the character.

  17. Virgilia Coriolanus says:

    I shouldn’t admit it, but I cackled through this interview (very unseemly, I know).

    All I want to know is how in the world is she going to shade Katie Couric for being/going “tabloidy” when her own BFF, BEST FRIEND 4EVAH! is a-reading tabloid rumors off to her on a show, as part of this show, and b-bringing more and more tabloid rumors to her i.e. the whole “brad needs to come home, where he belongs” and “Angelina is a f’ing homewrecker” (and all that crap she said about their kids)….this too is attention that she says she hates, but lets her friend bring to her.

    Is she f’ing stupid?

    Oh, and Kaiser, I think if you change the title to reflect the Katie Couric shade, then more people will read it. I read it, because yesterday I heard from another commentator saying that Jennifer threw some flak on Katie….and yeah I agree with you on the “5 years after Brad” People cover…that made her look desperate and pathetic-not something I want people to think of me.

  18. skuddles says:

    You know how some people just can’t take a bad picture? Well JA is not one of those people.

  19. Miss M says:

    Everytime Jennifer Aniston goes to Chelsea’s show (Can I call her a comedian tabloidy?!) she shows her vapid and self-absorbed she is…

    This friendship has not done any good to her.

    • Virgilia Coriolanus says:

      +1
      Chelsea isn’t good for her at all. I don’t get what she sees in Chelsea, but whatever it is, it can’t be good. I mean, Jennifer was actually kind of moving away from the whole tabloid triangle crap, then here comes Chelsea bringing it up AGAIN and AGAIN. That’s not a good friend. Because even if Jennifer was over it (emotionally and professionally) her “friend” makes her seem like she can’t forget what happened at all. And that’s not a good friend. You’re supposed to make each other look good, not make one look pathetic.

  20. Tara says:

    She looks good in these pics, but wtf is a Jennifer Aniston?”

  21. Joe Joe says:

    Her new face looks weird.She said she gets chemical peels but it looks like a facelift to me.Either way she needs to stop.Her skin is pulled so tight in that We’re The Millers trailer it is just ridiculous.I am so tired of her and her hair and clothes and fake baby bumps and her terrible movies.Are Jennifer and Miley Cyrus the only 2 celebrities in the world that this blog cares about?I don’t know why. They are not interesting!

  22. Janet says:

    I like that hair color on her. Now she needs to find a style that suits her. That one she’s wearing doesn’t.
