Jennifer Aniston says gossip won’t stop her from falling in love

SPL68843_001

Jennifer Aniston and John Mayer’s on-again-off-again romance may be off again – but like always, it’s hard to say. According to Entertainment Wise, John dumped Jennifer after the Golden Globes because he felt she wasn’t really into the relationship and was also feeling rejected by her.

Jennifer Aniston and singer boyfriend John Mayer have reportedly called it a day on their on-again, off-again romance.

The couple – who haven’t been pictured together since just before Christmas – are said to have ended their rocky relationship after the former Friends star began losing interest in her younger beau.

According to Heat magazine, Jennifer’s lack of enthusiasm for their union left John feeling rejected, which prompted him end the relationship.

“It was after the Golden Globes, he decided to end it then and there,” an insider said. We’re not sure the significance of the Golden Globes as the couple didn’t attend – could it have been Angelina and Brad’s lovey-dovey display?

And even though it wasn’t Jen doing the dumping, it seems she has finally realised that John simply isn’t the guy to sweep her off her feet.

The thing is, Entertainment Wise isn’t always the most reliable source, so I’m not putting all my money on this. It is true the pair haven’t been photographed together since before Christmas, but that could be due to any number of reasons, including Jen’s desire for privacy. In fact she just recently told More magazine that she feels like she still has a basic right to keep some things to herself, regardless of her public status – and that everyone’s gossip won’t stop her from falling in love.

Jennifer Aniston says that the constant media attention surrounding her relationships won’t prevent her from falling in love.

The former Friends star – who is rumoured to have split from current beau John Mayer – admits she craves privacy where her love life is concerned.

She tells More magazine, “I’m a private person and even though I’ve enjoyed a lot of success, I still feel I have a right to some basic privacy.

“My career is going where I want it to go, and I’m working… I’d rather not have my personal relationships receive so much attention, but that’s not going to stop me from falling in love.”

Jen also told the magazine that, when it comes to romance, she makes a great agony aunt.

Perhaps it’s time for her take a bit of her own advice…

I’m still not totally sold on this notion of Jen and John’s relationship being over. Until it makes People, I think it’s still up in the air. Frankly, for Jen’s sake I think it’d be best, but only because she can do better. John Mayer is a nice distraction, but nothing more. And she has the right to be distracted as long as she wants; I’m in no way implying she should settle down. But if she wants something more serious out of a relationship, just about anyone would make a better candidate that Mayer. It sounds like she’s conscious of keeping her heart open and not giving a care about what everyone else is saying regarding her love life. There’s definitely a much better guy out there for her.

Here’s Jennifer and John in Manhattan on December 10th. Images thanks to Splash.

    I love the header “Jennifer Aniston says gossip won’t stop her from falling in love”…the reply possibilities are simply endless!

    I’ll quickly get us started…”No, but her Fred Flinstone mug and barren soul will.”

  2. Whitey Fisk says:

    Flintstone! Oh, ability to edit, I miss you.

  3. LondonParis says:

    HA!

  4. Sauronsarmy says:

    Ugh, shes so damn boring. As much as I hate brangelina at least their gossip (and the comments they produce) is some what entertaining.

  5. Kristen says:

    She does deserve better that idiot! I’m not a fan of hers – but I think she definitely needs to upgrade!

  6. Kristen says:

    LOL Whitney – I miss edit too!

  7. jennifer says:

    I’m not quite sure I understand why gossip SHOULD prevent her from falling in love…??? *confused* O_O Besides, didn’t she say she doesn’t really pay attention to the gossip sites, tabloids, etc? So what’s the problem??? *still confused* lol

    I really hope this relationship IS over. I think she can do waaaaaaaaay better.

  8. Syko says:

    I think the only thing that will make her stop falling in love is when she realizes she has run through every available male in southern California and there’s nobody left to date.

  9. Susan says:

    Interesting post. Like you said Jen is private and having pictures or no pictures certainly doesn’t give us a clue as to if they are together. Who actually knows if Jennifer really wants to settle down right now. Her friend Sheryl just adopted a baby at 45 that still gives Jen 5 years. I really think she is just doing what she wants to do. And by the way Jen’s magazine covers (Vogue & GQ) WOW the sales were awesome. Jossip has a run down on it. This girl has a hit movie, another one coming out, a new house, millions in the bank, a young rocker. Personally I don’t really care who she is with. She will take her time and make sure it is right. I just enjoy watching to see what she will do next.

  10. Ash says:

    I thought she was pushing to “set a date”? OH well.

  11. Tj says:

    LOL Susan sound like a paid poster. To bad Jen can’t make on her with a huge Pr team. If she was all that then she wouldn’t need all the phony of stunt garbage and some one running down a list of what she has done and trying to puff her up. Jen is empty hot air with a paid douche bag for a boy
    Friend. So despert.

  12. so what says:

    Can’t believe all the haters on here, I thought I was at JJ for a minute..Jen is a beautiful woman with tons of money and can do what ever the hell she wants and with whomever she wants..if its John or someone else…I’ve been a fan for a very long time…before loser Brad was even in the picture…shes going to be around for a long time, so all the haters should just settle down and learn to live with it…And Susan..I absolutely agree with your post.

  13. Susan says:

    A little jealous are we Tj?

  14. Susan says:

    Just for your information: Seems that she is making it on her own.

    EVERYBODY STILL LOVES JEN: It seems Jennifer Aniston is still a main attraction on the newsstand. The “Marley and Me” star was featured on the cover of both GQ and Vogue around the release of the movie, which in turn posted big single copy sales for both fashion titles. Vogue made a splash with its December issue, which featured Aniston in a red Narciso Rodriguez dress and a quote from her interview with contributor Jonathan Van Meter: “What Angelina did was very uncool.” The quote referred to Angelina Jolie talking at length to the press about how her relationship with Brad Pitt developed while he was still married to Aniston. That move stirred controversy among the bloggers and from Aniston herself, criticizing the magazine for its tabloidlike approach in promoting the story. Despite the criticism, the strategy worked: Vogue sold an estimated 465,000 single copies of the issue, outselling the December 2007 issue by nearly 65,000 copies.

    At GQ, the men’s monthly made its own splash with a nude Aniston — save for a strategically placed striped tie — on its January cover. The photos provided titillating copy for blog posts, news items and e-mails, generating so much buzz the issue sold 370,000 copies, according to early estimates. That’s GQ’s best single copy sales results in 10 years, according to the magazine. Aniston’s nude photos also sold better than when she posed topless on the December 2005 cover — that issue sold 336,898. The January 2008 issue with Josh Brolin on the cover sold 177,700 copies. The magazine’s December issue, its Men of the Year package, also outperformed recent ones, thanks to one particularly popular politician. The magazine published four different cover images with “Mad Men” actor Jon Hamm, Leonardo DiCaprio, Olympic gold medalist Michael Phelps and President-elect Barack Obama. That issue sold 270,000 copies — an 18 percent improvement over December 2007’s issue. — Stephanie D. Smith

    I really like John and Jen together. Cute couple!

  16. PJ says:

    There are also several “reports” that John designed an engagement ring for Jennifer that he’s presenting to her on her birthday in February.

    So either they’re breaking up or engaged.

    I think it’s neither. There’s been no news/pictures of them lately so people are just speculating about what’s going on.

  17. Ally says:

    Since she’s finished promoting her Marley movie, I take it that the “relationship” is off.

    When the ‘…Not Into You’ promo rounds begin, I daresay it will definitely On again. That would be an embarassing movie for an actress not to have a date during.

  18. NotBlonde says:

    Oh for shit’s sake. People whine and complain about how “boring” she is. If you think she’s boring why are you constantly reading about her? Hoping she’ll get interesting?

    Jennifer Aniston is boring. Yea. BFD. A lot of actors are boring and keep out of the spotlight.

    I think what she’s saying though is that it doesn’t matter what kind of stories are made up about her, she’ll still do what she’s doing with her life i.e. getting boyfriends/falling in love, whatever. Like it’s not a problem for her if people want to constantly speculate about where she is in a relationship.

  19. Larissa says:

    @NotBlonde: ditto!!!!

  20. Tj says:

    There is nothing to be jealous of.
    All the stuff you keep listing but still she is not happy. If Jen was really happy she and her fans would move on with your life but she and her fans keep bashing Brad and his lady because none of you can move on.
    All of the advertising Jen is too funny.
    Jen has to buy a man and that don’t sound like happiness to me. She sounds pathetic and mentally I’ll.

  21. anonymous says:

    Yes from her battery operated boyfriends!

  22. NotBlonde says:

    Mentally I’ll, eh?

    And you are calling Jennifer Aniston crazy?

  23. Codzilla says:

    NB: I think Tj meant, “Mentally, I’ll be stable once my Mom convinces me to stay on my meds.”

  24. Cheyenne says:

    Jesus please us, was anybody dumb enough to think this thing with Mayer the Player was going anywhere?

    Nothing can stop Aniston from falling in love but her own insecurity and neediness. She latches onto guys like a leech and won’t let go until they pry themselves loose and run like hell in whatever direction she isn’t.

  25. CB Rawks says:

    Mayer is a thorough tool. I’m really surprised at her that she ever dated him, but if it’s actually over now she should run like hell.

  26. Jane says:

    I see the Brangeloonies aren’t responding to you NotBlonde!

  27. Bodhi says:

    Oh please. People constantly piss & moan about how much they hate Brad & Angie yet make their views more than known on almost every “Brange” thread. That argument is moot at best.

    I totally agree with NotBlonde’s interpretation of her statement. I think the vast majority of stars completely ignore the BS stories about them. They can’t control everything so they learn to ignore it all. The fact that she ignores the tabloid BS doesn’t make Jen unique. It makes her normal.

    ALL celebs manipulate the “press” to their benefit. Its just what they do.

  28. Cynth says:

    I think Jen and John are the biggest manipulators of the press. That’s why John accepted the position. They needed a publicity whor like John.

  29. doodahs says:

    Ally, I was thinking exactly the same thing..

  30. Marc says:

    Jen looks like she is digging in the ditch along side of Mayer. Slumming real bad.

  31. MightDamnFine says:

    With that Franken-Face of hers, I’ll bet it is quite hard to find love.

  32. ChristinaX says:

    Lol.

    You know, she gets with a guy and she’s “just using him as a rebound” but if she’s alone she’s a crazy old woman with dozens of cats in a smelly apartment.

    Say what you will about Jennifer Aniston, but I realized some of the biggest critics will always go out of the way to try to analyze her actions and words, as if they’re somehow relevant to her former relationship with Brad Pitt, how she’s so clingy that she can’t maintain a proper relationship, how she’s desperate on the rebound, etc.

    Quit making shit up that isn’t there just because you want it to be there, and while Jennifer Aniston outside of the love triangle is “boring”, I can respect the fact that she’s trying to be something that she isn’t.

    Some people have really messed up views about relationships, obviously.

  33. ChristinaX says:

    *I can respect the fact that she’s NOT trying to be something she isn’t.

  34. BOB says:

    SO. GOSSIP CAN’T STOP BRAD AND JOLIE FROM FALLING IN LOVE HA HA

  35. COCO says:

    All of the guys she dated come from her rebound. Because she can’t move on. She san’t forget Brad.The way she jealous, hate, upset, talk bad and copying Jolie,also pretended kiss ass Brad, say good about him etc…. although she know well he lefted her for Angie.

    THIS WOMEN GET MENTAL PROBLEM. DATING A YOUNG GUY IS ABNORMAL
