Here are some photos of Justin Theroux and Jennifer Aniston coming out of their hotel in NYC yesterday afternoon. I don’t want to sound like a conspiracy theorist or anything, but I’m pretty sure Justin still has an apartment in the city. Hell, I’m pretty sure Jennifer still owns at least one property in the city too. Why are they staying at a hotel? And how is it that she can fly under the radar for so many months but suddenly this week she’s getting pap’d? Oh, I know! I know!! It’s because The Leftovers premieres this Sunday, right? Of course. They might as well be wearing t-shirts that say “The Leftovers, HBO Sunday 9 pm.” Would you like them more if they did wear those t-shirts?
Anyway, on Monday night’s red carpet for The Leftovers, People Magazine asked Justin about what he would miss he was “taken” or “left behind” (like, the Rapture, which is what this show is sort of about). Justin eventually gets around to the People-friendly answer:
Talk about packing the essentials. In The Leftovers, which premieres June 29 on HBO, Justin Theroux’s character is caught up in a global Rapture-like event, in which some people disappear and others are left behind. At Monday’s New York premiere of the haunting show, Theroux was asked what he’d be bummed to leave behind if he were taken suddenly.
“My cell phone. No, my keys,” he joked at first.
All kidding aside, the actor, 42, said he’d want his fiancée, Jennifer Aniston, with him – whether he was taken or left behind.
“That’s who I’d want to bring back. That’s who I’d want to bring with me,” he said of his longtime love.
For now, he’ll have to settle with bringing her to red-carpet events like that on Monday, where he told reporters “it’s great” having Aniston support his work.
Are we supposed to “aw” at this? I did not. But the lovey-dovey stuff is usually gross to me, especially the lovey-dovey stuff combined with a streak of afterlife-planning. “Heaven to me is my girl’s tanned butt in Cabo as she slurps Mojitos,” Justin said, getting teary-eyed. “The Rapture comes when she runs out of SmartWater.”
PS… Justin is wearing Tom Cruise-style lifts.

HAHAHA! “My keys”. “Oh,er, ummmm, I meant my girlfriend! Of course. Classic.
lol
I would have guessed, “My hair products and mirror”, but whatevs.
That’s why he’s taking her. She’ll bring all their beauty products with her to the afterlife.
His skinny jeans, doc martens, ugly gold ring she’s probably way down the list.
No, he’d take his Chucks and/or skinny jeans….
i don’t think i understand his answer (or the way it was transcribed). he’d “bring her back” or “bring her with him”? maybe that has to do with the show, and the way that “rapture-like” event occurs, as in people have a choice whether to be raptured or not? because as far as i know, in the christian mythology one does not have a choice.
No, in the book which the show is based on, people don’t have a choice. I’m guessing he’s covering both options with his answer rather than speculating on whether he’d be one of the ones taken or not.
oh, ok. lol
He’s prob just desperate to get her to go ANYWHERE that’s not Cabo.
“Babe, how about the Afterlife? It’s kind of important.”
Hey Liberty!
If you feel like dropping us a prose or two— the fans would love it!!!
Especially me.
Snort. I love you.

JT: So like, to explore the within-ness of the concept of the afterlife, like, going there, I would totally say, my target-pattern bee helmet, this one book I haven’t finished reading and for sure, my pistol necklace and new shoes. I want to arrive prepared for any like universe-type battle, but also, having something to read and my own post-transformation style from like, a Steve McQueen in Le Mans perspective. I’m thinking of the universal post-Armageddon of our souls and like as the French say, the materialish-ness that follows in our human wake.
JA: That’s it? That’s it? I fly all the way out here for the premiere of the Luftwaft, not even a real film, when I could be having salad with my girls and working on intensifying my post-bummer-movie re-blondeness, and I have to stand here behind you and hear you say that stuff, my carmelized apricot slice of love?
JT: Oh, uh, hey, why, my babe! I was like, so engrossed by the question and its like many-pronged –
JA: Did I teach you nothing? You’re gonna take a paperback and junk jewelry? Like Virgin wouldn’t supply that on board if you said who you are?
JT: Virgin Airlines? Uh, I was asked about the afterlife, my rosy juice-spitting roasted apple of nonliterary passion. Virgin Airlines would not take us there, you see, my babe, the rapture would.
JA: Virgin, Rapture, Jet Blue, whatever. You want to be quoted saying that, my babe? How does that sound? Look at Uncle Terry – be like super careful with quotes! Anyway if you to Armenia, what else would you need except hydration and a cell phone, my boy-legged Manhattan monk of missed calls? And what about the handmade Hermes silk-lined chastity ballsack I gave you? You’d leave that behind? Along with your tubes of CaboTannarific and the Am Ex? Is that what I’m hearing? So like, maybe I would have a few tiny leather pants and band tees to throw out when I like transform into my new house-closet?
JT: My fabulously simple feline of fractiousness, I stand corrected. I will elect to bring a cell phone and keys when I rapture, which currently, I am praying for. Having you here is great.
3 hours after reading your post, I still haven’t gotten over the “my caramelized apricot slice of love” quote. Too funny Liberty. 🙂
Saw this post 1st thing this AM but i gotta get to work so will read it when i get home and oh boy is this story begging for Liberty… fast forward….Liberty this comment is LOL gold 😉
editing my reply
ok i was referring to the anywhere but Cabo but then i read your next post both are LOL gold!
@ Liberty-
Damn, you have a gift!
You do know your fanbase is growing over at JustJared as well.
I wanna be your press manager!
“My caramelized apricot slice of love,” indeed. LOL!!!!
“Virgin, Rapture, Jet Blue, whatever.” …SMH. Something Rachel would say.
Between your ” tubes of CaboTannarific,” ” tiny leather pants and band tees” and boy-legged Manhattan monk of missed calls”– I really can’t decide a favorite quote.
OMG, Liberty–can’t get over this line…
‘ handmade Hermes silk-lined chastity ballsack’……..
I’m not going to throw any shade on him…can you imagine the backlash if he hadn’t said he would take JA? Hope they are happy, but, I have to say, in pictures, at least, I don’t see an ounce of chemisty between them!
Yeah, really-if he didn’t say he’d take her people would have plenty to say about that! I know there are many who don’t like him or JA but they seem fine to me. There’s a lot of dislike for JA on this board but unlike some other celebs (i.e. Mila Kunis) she seems like a polite person who knows how to interact appropriately with the public. So what if she’s not particularly complex in terms of her interests and travel plans? I’ve never read anything about her behaving unprofessionally on sets, etc.
Those definitely look like lifts, eek. I actually didn’t realize how short he was until those photos yesterday with his co-stars, he’s tiny. And here I’m struck by how his hipster style doesn’t match well with her more bohemian style.
And she’s in some flats. Eek is right.
His attitude in these photos is really off-putting.
How in the world are you able to interpret his attitude when he’s wearing sunglasses and a neutral expression?
He looks like a dilhole with his shirt buttoned all the way to the top. Actually I should have just stopped at “he looks like a dilhole”
Agreed. Although my 14 year old always wants to do that with his shirts, too, but probably for a different reason. When I tell him to loosen up and unbutton the top button he yells “then why did they even put it there if it’s not supposed to be buttoned?” Hard to argue with that…
My eleven year old brother does that too–my mom rolls her eyes every time she sees it. And he’s the type to wear that kind of shirt with a pair of dirty gym shorts…
As for Justin–it’s a lot worse because everything is always so….’contained’. Like his pants are really tight, he wears these (generally) big black combat boots (or whatever they’re called) that lace up–he never wears like sneakers and jeans, and he always wears super tight tshirts.
It’s like he doesn’t want anything to spill out. I’m just wondering how he walks around without a wedgie.
LMAO. Yeah, I’m not a fan either.
lol, it makes him look so uptight to me.
that orange shoe made me do a double-take. 😉
it’s so cute to have the his and her watch. and nice to see him not swathed in leather from top to bottom.
although he looked very dressed up for someone in dress-down clothes.
Justin wants to bring Aniston to the afterlife and… Coming back alone later?
Kaiser–it’s real easy not to get pap’d together in one place, when you’re on opposite ends of the US. Just sayin’.
And I think his answer was completely typical–and I think that it means a whole lot more coming from HIM than her–being that (from a gossip point of view) he’s made a lot more sacrifices, and has put more of his personal time on the line to go and be with her, when she (presumably) can’t be bothered to hop on a plane and go see him–and not just when there’s something to sell.
I think Jennifer did something to her face again. I guess I should be thankful that I wasn’t born as attractive as she is, nor with the ability to pursue an acting career. All I have to do is bleach my teeth every few years and inject a little bit of Botox to keep up the right “professional appearance”. On the plus side, I love her sunglasses and that watch…
Is that the Rolex that Mayer gave her. Not sure. maybe it is a replacement
@lisa2: that’s what I thought when I first saw it, too.
BB knew what he was talking about when he said “the thrill is gone.” My love affair with Aniston dwindles a little more every time I see her. Neither one of them look very happy, but then again, what do I know? I’ve only got the tight lipped, grim look on the bottom half of their faces to go by…the window(s) to their soul(s) remain ever hidden by his and her aviators.
Side observation – why is it that people will spend so much money on fillers and injections for their faces, but completely neglect their neck/décolletage? It’s distracting….it’s like aging 10-20 years in a matter of inches.
Time to get my uniformly aged a** in gear and get ready for work. I hope everyone has an excellent day today!
Well, Kaiser certainly set the tone for this story. I read this story on the Daily Mail yesterday & it read quite positive to me. I thought it was very sweet of him to say but then again, what could he have said to satisfy everyone. They are being seen now because they are doing their job & promoting his work. This looks like a team effort & I’m looking forward to watching it.
I think it’s interesting how folks see these two promoting one of their projects together vs. other couples. with other couples, it’s “oh, it’s so nice that he/she is their supporting his wife’s/her husband’s work”.
with these two, it’s them “playing the game” or some other such negative characterization.
and I know I’ll probably get “schooled” for this, but I honestly don’t see the big deal about how much time either one of them spends traveling to visit the other one. they DO make an effort, even if it’s not often enough to please everyone. (and why should they have to live their lives by other people’s relationship “rules”?) sure, the way they’re together (or not together) may not be how YOU PERSONALLY would want to be in a relationship, but it works for THEM.
I remember reading a profile/story of a couple in NYC who are married, but live in separate apartments. IN THE SAME CITY. They are faithful, don’t have a plural relationship etc…they just want separate spaces for themselves. and you CAN be in a relationship like that. I’ve been with the bf almost 21 years, and we used to live together but we don’t anymore because both of us like to have our own spaces. I know when we stopped living together but were still “together”, people said “oh, you’re going to see other people?” or “oh, this is the beginning of the end, huh?” no on both counts. six years later, we’re still happy. maybe even happier.
See, doofus?…every relationship is unique unto itself. You have your own unique (according to standards) relationship going on. Look at Helena B Carter & Tim Burton. She & the children live on one side of a duplex & he lives on the other. My husband & I joke about doing that all the time. My best to you.
I don’t think anyone should flame you for it. It’s a difference of opinion. In my opinion, living in separate houses from your partner (long term or otherwise) is quite different from being on separate coasts and barely making an effort to go and see your SO, when you have the time and the money to do it whenever you wanted.
That’s just me–that, and the fact that she pushed her wedding really hard in PEOPLE magazine leads ME to believe that something isn’t working in their relationship. Especially since it was all fine and dandy when Justin wasn’t on a set filming i.e. he followed her around, moved from NY to LA for the long haul, and could/would go and see her on her film sets. But it’s not the other way around–not like Justin did.
Yes, this relationship of only seeing each other every few months, might be short term, being that Justin’s done filming his show for a while, and that might’ve worked for them, being that it was a year. But what happens if the show is a huge success and goes on for five, ten years? What then? Will they continue doing that, especially given that Jennifer won’t live in NY for more than a few months, while Justin was in LA for two years?
I just find the whole thing odd. You might not, because your experiences are different from mine. But who knows? They both seem fine with not seeing each other for months at a time. Maybe that will be their relationship.
Ina Gartner aka The Barefoot Contessa and her husband live apart during the week (he works up in Connecticut, while she stays in Bridgehampton), they spend the weekends together and clearly it works for them. Everyone is different and the older I get the more I understand these type of living arrangements.
HBC and Burton have rumored to be in an open relationship. He was accused of being with someone else kissing her? DO not remember well.
@doofus, you bring to mind a song by K.T. Oslin
So live Close by, visit often
That’ll work, that’ll work for me
Live close by, visit often
Save us both a lot of misery
So is he just gonna be buried like a pharaoh with His Aniston, Motorcycle skinny jeans and whatnot?
…..well thank you for putting the image of a immaculately decorated Cali-themed tomb filled with cabbage patch babies and a margarita fountain in my brain…
And all glass and Black Leather Decorative Touches, You are welcomed
This man is definitely…SHORT.
Yeah…and Brad is so TALL. Now we know whose idea the lifts were
Agreed- Brad is not tall— but he definitely is not SHORT,
Brad Pitt is 5’11” tall. All you knew to do is Google any old picture of Brad and Goop and the beach and you can tell he’s at least that tall because Goop is 5’9″ and never ‘towered’ over Brad.
She has always been extremely private so I don’t know why people make such a big deal about the way the stand or look walking out of a hotel. I look forward to the show and hope they can come out from under the (gag me) Brad/Angelina shadow.
She might be private, but her publicist is not, giving details “an onlooker”, a “close friend”, a “source”, et al to different outlets is very obvious. Also , that add or video, whatever it was of her feigning to be pregnant … was it a smart water ad? did not seem very private, neither the places she chooses to go on vacation, in plain view of the paps. There are really private beaches and resorts in Mexico , you know, one can hardly ever see any celeb or royal in the Careyes area, there are private landing strips, etc. When she was married to her first husband, one never saw pictures of them in Mexican beaches, and they visited a lot. After her divorce… phew!
@Pnichols, who wrote: “She has always been extremely private so I don’t know why people make such a big deal about the way the stand or look walking out of a hotel.”
Jennifer Aniston is about as ‘private’ as she is a ‘natural beauty.’
Again @Pnichols, who wrote: “I look forward to the show and hope they can come out from under the (gag me) Brad/Angelina shadow.”
I believe only her ‘marriage’ to another man will finally sever Jennifer Aniston’s connection to the Jolie-Pitts, but the Rapture will probably happen before she and Justin wed.
Can’t believe you wrote that… Aniston is the least private celebrity I can recall, apart from those that are famous just for being famous, like the Kartrashians. Aniston’s PR makes sure we know every detail of what’s going on in her life, whether it’s true or not – surely you don’t think this is being done against her will?
Jenn’s probably been keeping a low profile so as not to steal any of the limelight from The Leftovers premier and cast.
She sold the two adjacent NYC condos shortly after purchasing them.
Their Hawaiian vacation photos, with him wearing flip-flops and her barefoot, show that Justin is approximately 2 inches taller than Jenn. So it appears that he ordinarily enhances his height.
When a man wear lifts he loses major points. My husband is a short man and he owns it. I’m three inches taller than him and we never try to change who we are or mask our height difference.
Women that think that a short man is not sexy well… Your loss. My husband is totally sexy, has a very successful career, is also kind and funny and smart. It’s so outdated, to me, to think that a man must be tall to be sexy. But I guess Justin doesn’t have enough confidence to just be who he is.
agree on the lifts. Dustin Hoffman is short and he owns it, and I love that about him.
This 42-year old man has on —
shoe lifts, PLUS
skinny jeans, PLUS
buttoned-up-to-the collar snug polo shirt
… AND we are supposed to NOT notice or comment about this???
Well, well…
Yawn. … Oh yeah.
Actually, Cecilia, it’s just an observation.
Just like you observed that Aniston looks great numerous times on a Justin thread.
I agree! I dated a short guy once, he was maybe 5’6 and I’m 5’9. In this instance though it was him that couldn’t handle the height difference and it was a total turnoff, that it mattered so much to him. If he’d owned it he would never have had to worry as he was very attractive and super fit.
A guy at work is married to a woman 3 in inches taller than him. He is average height, she is just really tall. He loves it! He’s like “my wife is so hot!” They are adorable. He bought her louboutins as a wedding gift. Just own it!
My previous comment appears to have been eaten so I’ll try again. I don’t get the snark in the original post or some of these comments, nor do I get the photo assumptions that they’re unhappy or have no chemistry. They’re walking out of a hotel. I don’t have “chemistry” with my boyfriend either when I do that. Its seems like this is a pretty harmless activity. They’re probably using the paps for publicity, sure, but don’t most people in this business?
I think they both look fine, as far as how they’re dressed and styled.
” … he said of his longtime love.”
Now, where have I read this before and who was Justin with when it was written? … wait, don’t tell me, it will come to me in a minute. And when did two-and-a-half years become ‘longtime?’
It seems like in Hollywood that two years is the cut off mark for a ton of relationships–two years or five years…….
@Virgilia Coriolanus, who wrote: “It seems like in Hollywood that two years is the cut off mark for a ton of relationships–two years or five years…….”
True.
does JA have on 2 different shoes?
I’m thinking that the design is reversed on the other sandal–like on her left foot, the right side of the sandal is ‘open;, so on her right foot, the left side is ‘open’, while the right side (the side that we see) is closed…interesting sandal design.
The work put into trying to make Jennifer and Justin look bad both the from the blogger and the posters is just comical. I read these posts simply to have a laugh.
Yeah, I’ve never understood the Aniston hate here. Lohan haterade, I totally understand. But Jennifer Aniston? She seems relatively nice and harmless to me. So she likes to go to Cabo and drink margaritas and Smartwater – if that’s wrong, I don’t wanna be right LOL I’m not a fan in that I don’t go out of my way to see her movies, but I’ve enjoyed what I have seen. “Horrible Bosses” “Office Space” and “The Breakup” come to mind. The way she brings out the judgy shrew in some people really surprises me and, yes, cracks me up sometimes!
There is nothing crazy about any of these comments, and none of them remotely resemble hate – they are criticism, pure and simple, for a woman with mediocre looks and talent who has made a career out of a failed marriage, and the subsequent “poor Jen” reaction she evokes from the JenHens who identify with her.
@ epiphany–
And let the choir sing “Amen!” to you.
Jenhens get irked if she is not adored as the sun-kissed, harmless, lighthearted, fun-loving Rachel— don’t forget BEAUTIFUL— from Friends.
Jen is not Rachel, even though she has played that role over and over and over and…
+1 Mindy, +1. The sheer coo-coo crazy hate toward her is mystifying. I happen to like all parties just fine. Why? Because ultimately they’re *not* all that important to my real life, so how could any of them annoy me?
Wow, if you think these are “coo-coo crazy” hate posts you’ve had a very sheltered time on the internet.
people comment because celebrities bore them, irritate them, just plain annoy them , what’s it to you what people say about someone who’s “not all that important to your real life”?
@ Eva-
Oooooohh, see what you just did!!! Now you made too much sense with your reply!!
Someone’s feeling offended…
Agreed. It’s tiresome in the extreme. I don’t understand how two people leaving a building can be twisted into some negative conspiracy theory.
He looks like a tool, but I like her sandals.
Of course they’re being papped this week; they’re promoting his new show. Half the job of being an actor is getting somebody interested enough to watch what you did. They all do it, so I’m not sure why these two get judged so harshly for it. They’re in a hotel because it’s the best place for photographers to see them and hopefully the new project gets mentioned in the caption below the picture.
I do hate the way he dresses, though. Even if it was his style when he was younger, at some point you need to dress like an adult and not a 20 year old poseur.
JA is looking pretty aged and cougartastic in these pics. I think it’s the outfit or something. And sometimes he’s cute and when he’s not, he’s reeeeally not.
Check out the photos on DM – Jen definitely has her headlights showing again. Why she’d wear a thin tank top like that KNOWING it’s going to show her nipples makes me think she’s a bit of an exhibitionist. It was not chilly in NYC yesterday….
Just because she has hard nipples doesn’t mean that she can’t wear a thin tank top in NY in the SUMMER. She’s wearing a bra under her tank top. Who cares? Until some paparazzi catches her on camera icing her nipples, then why is everyone concerned about something that she has no control over?
I personally do not care for the look–but I’m not going to make moral judgments about a person because they want to wear a tank top.
@Virgilia, that was such a nice response. I am a 34DD bra size, and no way in hell am I going to wear one of those molded bras with two inches of padding to hide my nipples. They’re big enough at it is.
This I agree with.
@Mayame
I have big boobs too. Sometimes, for whatever reason, my nipples get hard and it’s not like I can control it. Unless someone films her actually icing her nipples, then I think it’s mean to call her a famewhore (or whatever) over something that she can’t control. It’s not like her clothing is inappropriate for the summer weather. It’s ridiculous, either way. No one complains about seeing a man’s nipples through his shirt. Very few people were complaining when we could see Jon Hamm’s d-ck through his pants, because he wouldn’t wear underwear (until he started complaining about it).
@Kaiser – LOL! You nailed it ;).
Justin looks cute and sexy!!
Justin and Jen play the game just like Brandgelina. They disappear when they want and they live apart as much as those other two.
Besides those 2 months when Brad was working on Fury and Angelina on Unbroken, when have they been apart from each other as much as Jen/Justin?
@Liz, who wrote: “Justin and Jen play the game just like Brandgelina. They disappear when they want and they live apart as much as those other two.”
No, Justin and Jen ‘try’ to play the game “just like Brandgelina,” but they are seriously out classed. Moreover, Jen and Justin obviously don’t have a ‘no longer than a week apart’ rule like the Jolie-Pitts.
For someone who despises Jen you sure are obsessed w/posting comments on her Emma.
YES GAWD. Take that woman and all of her shi*ty a*s movies to your alternate dimension. You can have your keys and your cell phone too. Heck, take her movies away from my TV and I’ll give you my car and my toaster for you to enjoy in the netherrealm or whatever it is.
