Here are some photos of Jennifer Aniston & Justin Theroux going into the Chiltern Firehouse, the new London hotspot this year. Jennifer didn’t let Justin walk the carpet with her or even walk the Horrible Bosses 2 carpet at all, but she did let him walk behind her to the after-party. She’s so funny. Anyway, while Jennifer was in London, she did some press for HB2, obviously. My favorite quote is from the red carpet of HB2, which is where Jennifer was asked about the “Oscar buzz” surrounding her role in Cake. Mind you, the Oscar buzz is bought and paid for by Jennifer and her team, just like she’s basically distributing the film herself because no one wanted it. Jennifer told Radio Times that her manufactured Oscar buzz is amazing:
“You can’t help but listen to it. It’s very humbling, it’s very flattering. It makes you jitter from the inside out. It’s a lot of things but mainly I’m just happy that people are receiving the film. That makes me very happy – we’re very proud of it.”
Girl…okay. I see you. I even half-respect your hustle. But it is sort of funny.
As for Justin and Jennifer and their amazing, otherworldly love, Jennifer told LOOK Mag that they go on picnic dates… to graveyards. Because they are 13-year-old goth children. Some assorted quotes:
Jennifer on how they spice up their romance: ”To be honest, we’re like, ‘Oh baby, how was your day? Man it’s good, let’s take a romantic picnic to the cemetery. Justin is probably one of the funniest human beings that I’ve ever encountered, so I have the great fortune to laugh a lot. So I think that yeah, we don’t actually take it home, but he does act beautifully on film and, like I say, we get to laugh a lot.”
On the obsession with her personal life: ”I can’t really explain why there seems to be this obsession when it comes to my personal life and the constant reports about me being pregnant. ‘I just try to pay as little attention as I can and live my life. Things will happen at the right time. It’s all about living your life and not being distracted by anything that’s being said about you. You need to enjoy everything that’s good and be grateful to have found each other.”
Why she gained a little weight: “For the last year and a half I went from being a crazy workout girl to sort of saying, ‘My body wants a little break.’ The only downside to that of course is that there’s that couple of extra pounds and 4,000 pregnancy rumours too, but you know, other than that, it all feels great.”
Maintaining her looks: “I don’t really have any special regimen as such. I think I’m blessed with good genes, which kind of helps. Whenever I look at my dad I kind of marvel at how he has hardly any wrinkles and he’s now 81, so I’m sure I’ve benefited from that and my Greek heritage. One thing I do on a daily basis is drink a lot of water, practise yoga and eat very healthily.”

Sigh… what would she have to talk about if not for those million pregnancy rumors, some of which her publicist started? Well, I’d certainly like to hear more about the dates at the cemetery. My opinion of JustJen’s relationship – based on these quotes and her Bazaar interview – is that Jennifer thinks Justin is, like, the most brilliant and interesting man she’s ever met. If that’s the case… well, at least she’s into him.
PS… I really like her glasses and I like the way she looks with glasses. She should wear them out in public more often!

She needs to lose the hipster glasses inmediately.
That is all.
I do like them.
They all do. Every single one of these ‘stars’ wearing these stupid looking glasses need to stop. They are all over TV commercials now too. They’re fug, on everyone.
Jen has never been one to think of others. She is completely cold and self-absorbed, and having picnic dates at a cemetery speaks volumes as to her character and the trashy person she is.
I have those exact frames. And I love them.
They are light weight and don’t give me a headache.
I love that the lenses are bigger and I can see what I am reading easily.
And not once, while I was trying them on to purchasing them… did I consider these plain black frames “hipster” glasses.
I actually thought they were a little mannish looking. But the biggest sale point is they did not pinch my nose. Which will provoke a headache for me within 15 minutes.
Hautie, i have a pair that are very similar and I love them!!! I’m certainly not a hipster, so I don’t understand all the hate for them! 🙂
I’ve never understood why people call these hipster glasses either. They look a lot like my dad’s that he got from the Air Force during the Korean war. I think most people look really good in these basic frames… Unlike the Fug aviators that make everyone look like insects. She has been looking great lately, though what she has to say is predictably awkward, disingenuous and boring.
I think they look great. They actually give her some edge. Also, didn’t she say recently she’s very shortsighted? Contacts get to be a pain and lasers in the eyes? No thanks. (I know someone who had the Lasik done recently; his eyes watered for two weeks.)
@Hautie, what brand are the frames?
Oi, Jennifer……dem’s *my* spectacles. Goddammit must I go back to my Rita Skeeter look now?
I like to walk in cemeteries. They’re peaceful and beautiful to me, and I like the history. The Victorian cemetery park movement was all about creating these beautiful spaces. As long as they’re respectful, I don’t think there’s anything wrong with having a picnic in a cemetery. The people buried there probably enjoyed picnics and spending time outdoors with their loved ones. I don’t know if she’s trying to be shocking by saying that the way she did, though.
If you’re there having a picnic as part of your remembrence of a lost loved one fine. There’s something so selfish/inconsiderate about having a date where other mourn. Worse if there’s a funeral in progress.
Even worse if they set up on the grave you’re trying to visit.
And I think she is trying to be shocking. If it’s so peaceful why tell? Now paps know where to look. She’s trying too hard.
@FLORC – ITA.
There’s plenty of cemeteries that haven’t buried anyone in many decades, and even more that are divided into new and (very) old areas.
I live near a cemetery and it’s pretty much treated like a park, lots of picnics and people reading books, people running through it etc. I think a few wealthy families might have still buried their loved ones in the family crypts up until about the early 80’s, but otherwise it’s been closed for business for around 50 years. My apartment overlooks the whole area, I often just sit on my balcony and people watch, and the only ‘mourners’ I’ve ever seen are just strangers visiting and taking pictures of the grave of a philosopher buried there.
Sorry to be a Law & Order nerd, but there’s this great bit of dialogue in one episode where Paul Sorvino’s character says that once a year when he was a kid, his grandmother would take the kids to the cemetery; she’d clean the gravestone and plant flowers; and then she’d lay a blanket down and they would have a lovely picnic with grandpa.
Chris Noth’s character says, astonished / creeped out, something like “You had a picnic on your grandfather’s grave?”
And Paul Sorvino responds, “What, we were gonna eat on someone else’s grave?”
They had such great writers on that show.
heh
This sh*t is so embarrassing…
From the heavenly love to earthly love statements – Jennifer now takes their love to the ghostly level.
I am sorry but the more I hear about Justin the more creepy I think he is. Difinetely not my type.
But he seems to have more in common with Jennifer than rest of her exes which could be the reason they are suited.
Both are vain and into outer beauty, both loves to namedrop their showbusiness friends for publicity, both really obsessive with their image, both don’t care about using others to advantage their careers and both have this Peter Pan complex.
Just comes to show that there’s someone for everyone.
His palling around with pervy Uncle Terry would be dealbreaker no. 1.
aren’t the glasses part of the “i’m an oscar contender” buzz she’s trying to create?
and when will a reputable journalist call her out on her own production company organizing a new distribution arm to pick up her movie?
NO ONE PICKED IT UP and her own company is distributing it?
what the heck?
and good genes?!
LOL
girl has tweaked her face so much…give me a break.
LMAO!
Really, Bella? Are you making a statement or, asking a question? If your making a statement, I would so love to see the link/s that clearly state the BS you just spewed. SMH!
Agreed Bella. She has had more facial surgeries than Michael Jackson and is still unfortunate-looking and masculine, and her desperation for an Oscar nom is now beyond pitiful.
Open up your eyes Dallas. It must be so exhausting to be in a permanent fanbot state of delusional denial as you are. SMH! RME!
She’s wearing glasses.
She must be smart.
Give her an Oscar.
Contact lenses are not always easy to put in and take out. #Oscar #brave #AmeliaEarhart
The editor of British vogue once said that Jennifer has copy approval on all her interviews.
I’d extrapolate that to mean that she sent out talking points to all outlets saying they must ask her about ‘Oscar Buzz’. Nevermind that no one, not even her own company has said it.
All her company did was to release their distribution plans which included limited initial release to qualify for any potential noms.
And since no one, but an indifferent TIFF crowd, has seen this film, it’s funny how it’s Oscar Buzzy this late in the game as opposed to straight out of TIFF, like all the other Oscar Buzzy films!!
But she didn’t wear any makeup and had prothestic scars! That is so the hallmark of an Oscar winning performance. You’re just being a h8ter! The reason the producers had to create a distribution company to distribute their own movie is because it was soooo special, no one attending TIFF could fathom its “specialness”.
What the heck does Aniston mean when she says this? It makes you jitter from the inside out.
Is that grammatically correct?
I like the darker hair a lot. Also I like the glasses.
It is pretty obvious that Jen’s “cemetery” answer was a wry joke. She has always handled press questions with humor especially silly or distressing ones.
I was told we all age how we should. Going gray? Skin wrinkling? Those features will fit you better than forcing them to go away. Like how Jen’s brown hair being more her natural color looks better than her blonde.
There is probably a great deal of truth in that aging statement. I do think outcomes can vary widely based on making an effort versus just kind of giving up. I have had some gray in my hair since my late twenties and quite a bit more now in my forties :). I don’t know if I will ever give up the hair dye. My mother passed away in July and we had colored her hair the week before at her insistence. I don’t know, I might do that too. Of course, I dye very close to my natural color which is a dark brown.
Speaking of hair dye, anyone have a suggestion on a good home color kit?
I have grays and still in my 20’s. I use to dye. As close to my natural color as I could. It was tough to stop doing. It came down to my future husband encouraging me to stop. Now i get compliments. The grays blend in more than stand out and I couldn’t imagine my hair without them.
I do suggest going to a salon and ask for a gloss or blend treatment. It can help you ease into embracing your grays 🙂
Thanks for the suggestion FLORC 🙂 I will keep it in mind. Also, I will google it because I have never heard of it. I’ve not been one to mess with my hair overly much.
You know I really do think some women carry off the gray spectacularly. I have always thought carrying off the all over gray versus the bit here and there would be easier. My MIL recently cut off her shoulder length hair to about an inch all over just so she could start embracing the fully white/gray look. I think it is going to be stunning when it grows out!
I kind of took that as a joke…like she was saying that’s the kind of joke he makes that makes them laugh together?… (and if she wasn’t joking…um…not sure how to take that…I agree with the poster above that walking through cemeteries is peaceful but picnicking in one?…)
meh, who knows…she’s not the most clear interviewee, for sure.
however, I understand her love of a man that makes her laugh. it’s one of the things I love most about the bf, and it can make an only marginally physically attractive guy very appealing.
Laughter is so important. A sense of humor makes day to day life fun and makes difficult times bearable. I am so thankful that my husband and I make each other laugh a lot. Sometimes, laughter thru tears is very cathartic 🙂

So true. I’d rather date a man with a great sense of humour than a good looking dud stuck on himself. it’s like dating a blow up doll. Take him out when you need him and throw him back into the closet when you’re finished with him.
I don’t think she deserves an Oscar, but she does deserve some kind of award for drawing out a movie career that should have never happened to begin with, and only happened because of the past association with her far more justifiably famous and talented ex… I mean, seriously. The woman is painfully un-talented; watching her on-screen is like watching paint dry. She lives a charmed life indeed, complete with margarita fountains. Cue the slow clap…
I like her glasses. Otherwise, boring… I’m bored (please imagine Lindsay Lohan saying that in that horrible Liz and Dick movie, since we can’t post gifs here)
Folks, be prepared for the lame, try hard, pseudo-hipster glasses to be showcased constantly, now that Jen is campaigning HARD for an Oscar nomination. She’s a serious actress, damnit! She’s empowered now, due to her empowering revelation of an empowered performance appearing Sans Fards. How brave of her. How empowering and feminist.
My eyes can’t roll far enough.
Lol
Ugh…..older dames like me and Bobbi Brown must get out and be seen! Reclaim our specs from the pseudo-hipsters.
“but mainly I’m just happy that people are receiving the film.”
People are not receiving the film! Hardly anyone has seen it, and it will probably not be high on anyone’s must see list.
No one even bought it at TIFF. It went months on the shelf before the film’s very own producers, in the most desperate move, created a distribution arm to have it released.
“Crazy workout girl” last year, “good genes” this year. Cute, hipster Jen.
Last year it was chickens. This year it’s cemetery picnics. For a reputed comedic talent, her delivery is pretty flat. It’s probably not the same without the stuttering.
Also, it’s very very brave of her to wear glasses in public.
Maybe she genuinly thinks there is oscar buzz and her own people are lying to her? I can’t help but feel a little sorry for her desperation. Sometimes some good awards buzz is all someone needs to move on with their career and get better offers, maybe that’s what they are going for and not actual awards and noms? But to be in the conversation.
Her daily thoughts are really starting to hurt my head. I wish I had the great fortune of willpower to stop me clicking and receiving them.
Wow I mean she is something else there is like NO Oscar buzz from anyone reputable a couple of critics have her at 10th place in their predictions. The rest is her PR team.
Let’s hope they bury his guyliner& eyebrows on their next picnic-along with any interest I have in them as a couple.
If I saw one his guybrows at the cemetary, I would be scared and totally smash it with a rock – thinking it was an evil catapillar of some sort.
Ughh. She’s is becoming insufferable isn’t she? If there’s one thing we do know about Jennifer it’s that she thinks alot of her body and I’m not talking about health. To say that last year she was a crazy work-out girl and now she’s okay with being thicker and credits genetics for her physique is too stupid for words. You know she’s going to lose that extra poundage she put on for Cake as soon as possible – like NOW! Especially after her publicist tells her people wrote on the previous Aniston article that she looked thick in that black dress. Can’t help it, it makes me snicker.
Which state were these cemetery picnics in?
If she brings the guy to red carpet people complaint because she is using her boyfriend to get some talk, if she doesn’t she is a b*tch… She can’t get it right then….
Ummm she was joking but you probably know that.
