It sounds like Jennifer Aniston was gracious and funny at the Women in Film Awards in LA last night. She was at the ceremony to accept the crystal award for excellence in film. Host Chelsea Handler made a crack about Aniston’s ex boyfriend and Aniston went on to joke about her love life in her acceptance speech, tying her career in film to her romantic record. She then got serious for a moment and thanked the show that launched her career – “Friends”:
Accepting Women In Film’s Crystal Award for expanding the role of women in the entertainment industry, Aniston took the stage Friday – in a body-baring Prada dress – and pointed out to the crowd of mostly female Hollywood movers and shakers that her personal fortunes over the past several years have been reflected in the titles on her film resume.
“I’m trying to be more careful than I have been in the past about the titles of movies that I choose to be in,” Aniston revealed. “It’s funny – I kind of noticed something a couple years ago that there seemed to be this strange parallel to the movies I was doing and my life off screen.”
“It started with, well, The Good Girl,” she explained. “Then that evolved into Rumor Has It, followed by Derailed, and then there was The Break-Up. And then on the lighter side was Friends with Money, which I felt was a bit on the nose.”
“So if any of you have a project titled Everlasting Love with an Adult, Stable Male…,” she concluded, drowned out by the knowing laughter of the crowd, which included Heather Locklear, Selena Gomez, Jenny McCarthy, Christina Hendricks and Twilight director Catherine Hardwicke.
She continued the title theme in a more nostalgic light. “There’s one title that I will be forever grateful for and that essentially gave me a start to anything, which was Friends,” said Aniston
“For years I got to go to work every day and I laughed and I played on the set with an unbelievably funny and creative team, both behind the scenes and in front of the camera,” Aniston remembered. “To go from that experience, which honestly was the highlight of my life, to then be here standing in front of you being honored for my work in film and being allowed that transition is truly quite humbling.”
Despite the sense of sisterhood evoked by the evening, Hollywood’s female power players couldn’t resist a good gag. Explaining that Aniston’s award was given for expanding the visibility of women in the entertainment industry, emcee Chelsea Handler joked that the actress “also stopped expanding the visibility of John Mayer, and we all thank you for that,” prompting a blushing Aniston to mock-bury her head in her hands.

Aniston is gorgeous in that silver dress. It looks like the kind of dress that might be odd-looking on the hanger, but she really pulls off the look. I also love her hair in soft waves like that. Both the dress and the hair are a departure for Jen and you wonder if she’s entering a new phase in life – one that also comes with better choices in romantic partners. Judging by her sense of humor about it all, she seems to know what she’s looking for this time around.
Here’s a clip from the awards featuring Chelsea’s joke about Mayer:
Photo credit: WENN.com
I’ve never really thought she’s quite the sad sack people have made her out to be. Sure, she seems a bit neurotic, unable to maintain long term relationships, and makes poor decisions but…that doesn’t mean she’s a giant loser.
Jennifer is the best, she doesn’t need some baby(foreign or american) sitting on her hips.
She is very classy not some cheap
whore like Ms. Jolie.
You go girl……..
oh jeez, how sad is it to have people make cracks about your love life at a ceremony…
That dress looks like one of those sun reflectors. Nice shoes. She doesn’t have a stylist?
¿Porque es famosa?
To dee miller:
i tend to agree with you.
ms. jolie has always said that she sleeps around. she sees nothing wrong with that. and so, by definition, she is just as you say. nothing more.
She looks really pretty there.
It annoys me that Chelsea brought up John Mayer when announcing Jennifer’s award. Jennifer got the award for advancing the role of WOMEN in film. Why mention the ex-boyfriend?
On second thought — I think Jennifer has a really good chance of finding true love. She’s just announced to the world that she’s looking for the right guy — and people who keep on trying despite failures almost always succeed in the end.
It’s the people who give up, get bitter, stop trying, that don’t find happiness.
She looks awesome. I love the crack about John Mayer. That was a major diss to that asshat. JA does look really pretty.
I have never got ‘desperate’ vibe from her. Brangelina supporters have tried to paint her intot his neurotic un lucky in love loser. They fail so notice that Brad Pitt has been more engaged than anyone else in hollywood and Angelina has 3 two failed marriages and a string of failed relationships. Brangelina wear the unlucky in love tag more that Jen. Isn’t Angelina Brad’s third ‘love if his life?’
Jen will be fine Mayer was a mistake, but we all have one like that. Infact, I find Brad a bigger douche than Mayer. And I mean that.
“…not some cheap whore like Ms. Jolie.”
Jeez, a bit strong isn’t it?
Her body looks weird!!! Her boobs are HUGE. Her belly is different. And her hips are larger that usual…
Bad dress choice?
Pregnant?
I think it’s the dress, but it’s really confusing!!!
she’s a very pretty woman with an amazing body, but that dress sucks.
It’s WAAAAAY too low cut AND short (bad combo) I think. To me, it just screams DESPERATE. She could look so much better!
Also, to the poster above who insists on bringing in AJ on this, I once read that she’s only slept with like 4 people, and she was married to two of them. Roll your eyes all you want, I did. And I waited for all the men (and women) to come rushing out of the woodwork saying they’d slept with her, but none came.
I really don’t know where you read that she said that it’s ok to sleep around. Got a source?
Jennifer is really charming in this clip and she seems like she has a great sense of humor.
Jen was with Brad for a decade, so I’d say she is probably one of the few actresses in Hollywood that was able to maintain a long term adult relationship.
Before that she was for years with another actor (I don’t remember his name).
I can name at least a dozen other actresses that have made worst choices in men- Cameron Diez (all the guys who would never marry), Angelina Jolie (Billy Bob?), and anyone who ever dated Justin Tim.
Actually, most of them can’t seem to pick the rights men, so they end up having a great career and they have to endure childish and problematic relationships.
I love Chelsea H. She is so funny. Why did Jen fake date John if she didn’t want any one to bring up that douche up. It shows how unstable Jen’s mind is.
Look at that dress a 20 something could pull that off but not this going on 41 year old. She is just like Madonna. It’s ridiculus when these aging women try to be 20 something.
That dress says desperate scared women.
She is very classy not some cheap
whore
—————————————
dee then why is she dress like a cheap whore with her boobs falling out. If it looks cheap then may be it is cheap. A classy women would have worn a more classy dress not some cheap desperate got to pull a man dress.
I think the dress needs to cover a little more up top and it’s just a little too short for her age.
Otherwish I like it.
I hope she is not just looking for a guy to flaunt at her movie premiere. I hope she is serious about a real relationship. This HW stuff needs to stop long enough for her to have a real life. I really hope she can do that.
@ carmen what are you on about that jennifer aniston shouldnt be angry about chelsea bringing on john mayer joke, the article and the video showed she was laughing about it; so your comment doesnt make sense there.
And i dont think Aniston would have been shocked or surprised that chelsea Handler hates john mayer, all the time aniston was dating him chelsea ‘on her show’ used to talk about how she thinks he was a douchebag and isnt good enough for aniston, and chealsea handler is reportedly a good friend of jennifer aniston and also reported to have attented her aniston’s birthday party.
she needs a sense of humor cause she is looking ROUGH!
Chelsea mandler got paid to stop trash-talking manny. she used to rail on her just like tori spelling, but chin with her $110m bought her off. now she is part of the hag-circle.
I’m not crazy about the dress but she pulls it off. And honestly just because she is 40 it doesn’t mean she has to dress like an old lady. She still has a beautiful body and I think she should flaunt it while she’s got it! 🙂
there are “classy” ways to show you still got it. chin’s fans always tout how “classy” she is. wrapped in tin foil that is too short and hooker style is NOT CLASSY
Sarah, completely agree with you. I don’t particularly like the dress, it’s a bit too crumpled looking and a smidge more length and boob coverage would have been nice, but she’s young-looking enough to carry it off. Not a big fan here, but she usually looks classy enough for me.
Wow, Angelina has definitely slept with more than 4 people. In Vanity Fair (I think) a few years back she was talking about having casual relationships purely for sex and how she felt that was better for Maddox than introducing lots of strange new people into his life. Plus there’s the model Jenni Shimuzu or whatever her name was.
As for Jen, she looks great, but really it’s just the same old isn’t it? Those jokes about her movie titles have been made many times before – hardly original material though I’m sure she delivered it beautifully because she is a very talented comedienne.
they chose to honour jennifer aniston for her work in FILM? there were so many other actresses they could have chosen whose portfolio’s (and reviews) are so much stronger.
jennifer’s a celebrity, but she’s not a “great” film actress.
very odd choice.
hags ALWAYS put in a disclaimer. they know she is UGLY but there is alwlays an excuse.
Why are the comments on Celebitchy becoming more strident and hostile? Relax, people, it’s a site to enjoy after a long day doing whatever. I come here for a little humor and gossip, not for grim, partisan battles over celebrities, for god’s sake. Lighten up.
An odd dress choice for Aniston, not her best look, bit on the tarty side. On the plus side she got to show off her sense of humor which sounds pretty down to earth and normal.
As for her getting the award in the first place, why not? I’m sure the organisation giving her the accolade knows the difference between her acting and her celebrity.
She’s funny and hot.
She should laugh about her love life because everyone else is. The dress is too small, the cleavage is too droopy to be attractive, and the hair and makeup are the same old thing. She needs to get a new team that respect the fact that she is 40 something. Halle is slightly older (although she looks younger) and manages to look sexy without looking desperate. And please Jen, stop twirling your hair like a child.
I think this is the first time I have read comments of people HATING on someone instead of congratulating her for an accomplishment, whether she truly deserves it or not. Come on people, can’t you give the woman a break? You have so much dislike in your hearts for someone you don’t even know, I hope you can still sleep at night and not think about how much “Maniston” sucks and how she’s so desperate. Sheesh. Only in North America would you find the most vicious people when it comes to judging others.
Jen looks amazing in that Prada dress. I’m going back to yoga immediately!
Strategically speaking, she needs to distance herself in the PR world/tabloids from Brad Pitt as much as possible… She needs to steer her fans away as well from Brad Pitt’s choices in a partner. Whom he chose is irrevelant. He once chose you (in the past) as a partner as well. What matters is what you choose to do with the rest of your life. The past is the past, the future is a total mystery, and the present? Well, it is a gift. Enjoy it.
Congratulations on your recognition, Jennifer Aniston.
If her PR team can simply focus on her film, her talent, her work, her career as an actress and NOT what Brad is doing with his present life ( which has nothing to do with her anyway), she will be able to put this ugly and embarassing gossip behind her. Lead by example. She is the ONLY actress dogged constantly post-divorce about her relationships with men.
Do not have headlines at the same time that Brad and/or Angie have headlines. Be smarter than this. It adds an unusual amount of catfight drama and consistently gives birth to the “us v. them” theory. Stay in your own lane. What is for you will come. Remember, Brad had nothing to do with your rise to fame, he was simply the icing on the cake for a short time in your life. Do not allow the press to make it more than that any longer. Got that Steven Huvane?
I really like what she said and how she handled herself; it actually surprised me. Plus, I think she looks wonderful for her age.
That being said, I don’t understand why she was being honored, rather than other actresses who actually can act, rather than play the same part over and over again.
I think she looks very good. The curly hair softens her more harsh features. The dress is I’m sure incredibly expensive and accentuates her body but it looks kind of like aluminum foil. Little surprised she didn’t throw in the break up in her “I’m not mentioning my ex” prepared remarks. I’d say she has a good sense of humor about her divorce and subsequent debatable relationships if she’d stop making a living off them. Her future possible titles include the divorce club, and getting rid of someone (not Brad), pumas, it goes on. They see a market and have clung to it hard for 4 yrs, it might be hard to change the strategy now.
pssh talk all the crap you want, the woman looks good in her little dress. I wonder how many of the people making comments to this article will look this good and be able to pull this off at 40, I know I won’t, lol.
Terribad dress, jeez, who pulled that off the rack? Fail! I’d have to agree that, tho she has a terrific figure, there are classier ways to show it off. The interview was quite elegant, tho. When she said …so if any of you have a project entitled Everlasting Love, etc etc seemed a bit pat. I’m guessing rehearsed. Still, funny and well done.
I like the color of the dress, but the fabric bunches up.
I disagree with her hair looking better in loose curls. I think she looks better with a more polished style. It looks frizzy here.
I do like that she went away from her usual black. The color looks good on her.
She handles herself with class, it appears. She takes a lot of the criticism in stride without coming across as too defensive or protesting too strongly. I personally don’t think she deserves a lot of the flack she receives.
–Anon1000, GET A GRIP. Seriously. I like how you and a few others on this post fail to make any relevant comments on the topic, or apparently lack reading comprehension skills.
It’s easier to crack jokes about someone’s appearance than it is to READ and comment on more than the pictures.
why did she get excellence in films. all her roles are mediocre and forgettable? just a thought.
she’s not even all women. she lacks a thing that defines a woman, that only thing that women can do that men can not. she’s just a female.
Wow really? Some of you still can’t just let her get an award and leave it alone?
It’s like a pathological need to say something nasty about her. It’s odd, to say the very least.
Anyway, the dress looks like it needs a good steaming but other than that it’s cute.
And can we quit it with the “desperate” nonsense? She does NOT look like Madonna in the least bit (who is 50, by the way) and has a great body. 40 is not “start wearing mu-mus and pantsuits to events” age. Especially not in Hollywood where women actually look decent wearing that kind of thing well into their 40s and aren’t sagging all over the place.
It is a bit low in the front for my tastes but no one gets on Susan Sarandon for having her tits out so good for Jen if she’s confident enough to wear something like that.
She really looks good. As for the comments about wearing a dress like that at 40. What exactly does that mean? -that when women reach 40 we can’t look sexy? Personally I thought that the days of an older woman having to wear a bun and long dresses were past? No? I love the fact that at forty we can compete with the 20 years olds. It is about time.
Her joke was adorable. I really appreciate that she can laugh at her life and her past. Good for her. Really hoping that she finds someone special. I think that it is hard in hollywood because she believes in marraige and most of hollywood really doesn’t.
It will be interesting to see how this all works out for Jen.
That dress is an unmitigated disaster. It’s appropriate for a young woman under 25, but Aniston is not a young woman any more. It’s time she accepted her age and dressed her age. Being 40 doesn’t mean you have to look dowdy. You can look classy and elegant at any age if you’re dressed appropriately. But stuffing her body into a tinfoil mini-dress two sizes too small makes her look like a Hollywood hooker. And as someone noted upthread, she should lost the hair twirl two decades ago.
On a more serious note, she needs to stay out of the sun. Her skin looks like cured rawhide. If she keeps tanning herself she could be facing some horrible health problems five years down the line. Basal cell carcinoma and melanoma, to name two of them.
Just wondering why 25 years olds can wear one thing and 40 year olds can’t. Ever heard anyone say that about a man. Well he really should not be dressed like that he is 40 after all and it makes him look cheap?
Im a Jen fan, and I didn’t really like the dress on her, not because of her age tho, because it looked all wrinkled..usually I love what she wears, not this time..but she has a great sense of humor..and for all the haters, saying that Jen is ugly, is absolutely ridiculous! shows your mentality!
She is dressed like a cheap Cougar who has been on the booze, hence the bloated mid section. She looks like she is high. The hair looks like she came right from the bed.
I will say, this cougar is chasing her next prey telling the whole world that she is looking for a stable relationship ? That woman never had a stable long relationhip with the excepetion of her ex husband who went to therapy 2 years because of her self proclaimed neurotic self.
She is a chronic pathologic immature who keeps on listenning to the recorded messages of all her ex, including the first one and utter Brad’s name everytime she is with a man.
STABLE, thy name is not Aniston !
But nothing is lost though, she can still appoint a profile in many blogs who worship her. I am sure that one of her follower would be perfect.
I know a lot of 25 year-olds that wish they had Jen’s figure. She looks great.
@tess, aside from her film acting she’s a powerful producer with a bog old wad of cash. She’s also directed a project.
I thought that her jokes about her relationship were fun and classy. She knows that that’s what people talk about the most regarding her, so might as well face it head on and have some fun with it.
I like both her and Jolie, and I don’t understand why people see the need to support one or the other over something that happened years ago.
Jennifer is looking great for her age! At least she doesn’t have that fake, plastic, shine look that celebrities have when they pass their 30’s.
On second thought there’s a pic that her eyes looks kinda crazy and the fabric of the dress was a bad choice. But still.. she always looks way better (w/ her emotions) that the ‘poor thing’ people like to think she is. Angelina actually looks older than her.. I used to think that she was the most beautiful woman ever but Angie’s face is too tight! see for yourself: http://www.awfulplasticsurgery.com/2009/06/10/this-used-to-be-angelina-jolie/#more-1264
Why bring Mrs Jolie into this post? She’s not a wh*** and not out tramping around. She’s been in several long term relationships. Dissing on Mrs Jolie doesn’t make Jen any better.
I love reading the comments from the rabid AJ fans. If you don’t like JA then don’t read stories about her. I enjoy the comments more than the actual stories sometimes (mainly when they are about JA or AJ). All the haters from both sides come out acting like thy need to defend their BFFs. It’s so pathetic, but so hilarious at the same time.
I am 48 years old, if I had Aniston’s body, I’d rock that dress. Piss on all you nasty nay sayers – Aniston is great she is the apex of all we wish we had, a fabulous life, money, the ability to make choices without a summit meeting with the husband, kids, gerbil and cats. Aniston can sleep with anyone she chooses, date anyone she chooses, and have fun doing it. As for her work in film she and her ex-husband had a production company named Plan B, she herself has a production company and she pulls in more seats in theaters than other actresses re: Hollywood Reporter. No I am not a Jolie hater..just sick of all the Brange morons and their envious and hate fueled comments.
Jeez, I’m thirty-six, and while I’m not wild about the dress, I only WISH I had a body like that.
I hate how negative this place has become. I like Angelina and Jennifer and never bought into that whole team nonsense. People break up, they move on. I wish more people could do the same.
what are you talking about, malena? breeding? breeding does not make a woman out of a female. it makes a breeder out of a human. Aniston looks great and has a fantastic life. Anyone would rather have her life than Jolie’s.
still waiting for that a-j/j-a hookup where they realise brad’s a ho, and they should be the ones together!
😀
Hash browns and Joe – word.
So much hatred for JA from the Brangeloonies – god forbid those people give her credit for anything.
expanding women in film? really? groundbreaking.
just because your body looks good doesn’t mean you should/could wear whatever.
That dress looks like a cheap version of a 80″s prom dress.
I intend to keep my girls on display as long as they look good enough for the shop window, thank you very much. I don’t think she’s showing too much of anything. When you have a rack like that, there is nothing wrong with showing it off. If my tits still looked that fabulous, I’d wear cleavage like that every day (okay, so that’s a bit of an exaggeration). My point is that she does NOT look slutty. She looks sexy. HUGE difference. It was definitely an appropriate occasion for airing out the décolletage. I think she did it magnificently.
I’m 34, and though I don’t dress like an 18 year-old, I can dress provocatively with maturity whenever I please. I think women who tell other women to “dress their age” need to just govern their own closet and leave mine the hell alone.
There is a woman in my neighborhood. GORGEOUS. Fantastic figure. She’s in her 40’s. She rocks the most outrageously sexy outfits, and she makes them all look good. There are so many women in this neighborhood that bitch and moan that she should dress her age. Truth? They’re jealous that they don’t look like her. Another truth. That woman is up every morning at 6am running her ass off before she takes her kids to school. She works hard for that figure. I don’t think anyone should tell a woman over 30 that she should “dress her age.” That’s so…oppressive.
Jennifer Aniston looks awesome in that dress…even though I can’t say I like the dress that much. I think Lem pegged it…it’s very 80’s aluminum foil vintage. Not a look we need to revisit.
I like her and I always have.
Aspen….very well put. On all points.
Jen’s body, face and hair looked really great. HOWEVER, her stylist or whoever needed to put the kibosh on the dress. It looks like reynolds wrap with 2 silver cup holders!
Few women could wear that dress. Jen is one of them.
I find it odd that the actresses in their 30s look younger than many of the used and abused actresses in their twenties like Magen Fox.
Good lord, some of you people seem to think any negative comment about that dress amounts to character assassination. Aniston has looked much better than this. She looked very elegant and classy at the academy awards in February. She looks neither elegant nor classy in that tinfoil mini-dress.
And if she doesn’t stay out of the sun and stop adding to the damage she’s already done to her skin, she’s going to end up looking like Donatella Versace. That’s a fate I wouldn’t wish on anyone.
Umm, I don’t like Megan Fox, but how do you figure she looks old. Aniston looks stellar for her age, but Megan obviously looks younger whether you like her or not.
Chicomorena, I bet you are 400 lbs. and the ugliest thing God ever put a breath in. You’d have to be to be such a nasty bitch. What decade was the last time you got laid?
I like Jenn but that dress is awful-not sure anyone would look good in it. It’s a terrible dress. Love the shoes though…
Good for her with her comments about her love life-she’s got a point and a good sense of humor!
Chicomorena I agree with what you said about that dress. She has had better dresses than this. The dress look like cheap aluminum foil. She should have went for something more classy than this. Seems the goal here is to show as much skin as you can to catch a man at any coast.
shes really gorgeous and cool… i really like her… shes on a comeback… big time
@Any Mous: re: your ridiculous OTT attempt to cut down Chicamorena for having an opinion:
hold up a mirror, dahling, I have a feeling you might just be (subconsciously)talking to yourself…
I will love to read the postings when we can talk about Jennifer Aniston withou bringing Angelina Jolie into it. It’s ridiculous!
Sanaiya: I agree. I think she’s making the mistake of thinking sexy means showing as much skin as possible. Sexy means keeping him guessing. Once you’ve laid it all out there for all the world to see, the mystery is gone.
Any Mous: Is this your actual screen name or are you too stupid to spell Anonymous correctly? I’m guessing the latter.
The only thing that’s ridiculous is her inability to stay away from reading every word about a celebrity she’s obsessed with bashing due to her own pitiful life. Nice try Chicamorena to pretend to be someone else so you can defend yourself. What a pitiful loser you are. My post isn’t any nastier about her than the average post she/you makes about Aniston. Maybe you can recognize your own classlessness while standing in front of the mirror you speak of.
Honey, there is only one of me and defending myself against an ignorant, illiterate little twerp like you who can’t even spell “anonymous” is like shooting fish in a barrel. If you have anything intelligent to say to me, say it. Until then, STFU.
No it’s not supposed to be “anonymous” and I’m sure as hell not your honey. Evidently no one else is either, since if you were getting any, you wouldn’t be so hateful and jealous. STFU? I think not.
You know what? By persisting in personal attacks against someone you never met and never will, you are simply reinforcing your inability to win an argument by any intelligent reasoning. So go rename your pillow “Chicamorena” and let out your frustrations by punching it all night. I’m done with you.
LMAO, Done with me, like you were done with this site so many times?
My attacks on you are no nastier than yours on Aniston, which are baseless and just as immature, however you seem to feel those are ok.
The minute you use anything remotely resembling intelligent reasoning, I’ll be glad to, but until then I will continue to act just like you.
Love how you try to take the high road as a last resort. Where is all that intelligent reasoning in your previous posts?
@wif – like many actresses, the only projects jennifer aniston has produced are ones where she has starring roles. (unlike demi moore, who had the guts to produce the little known mike myers vehicle “austin powers” back in 1997, but never fear, i am not saying demi is the better actress).
I say, if the dress fits, wear it! Age doesn’t matter. An overweight 18-year-old would look gross in that dress, despite her youth. JA has a fabulous body and can get away with it.
The dress looks tinfoil-like in a photo, I’d guess in person you can see the real fabric. Metallics are really in right now.
@wow: Yes, thank you, we all read that story. Nobody believed it, obviously, and nobody cared enough to try to refute it.
@Jag: well, she CAN act, just because she’s a rom com star doesn’t mean she embodies the character any less. Ahem. But, other than that, she’s a huge producer who makes movies about strong women living nontraditional lives. Movies that are, if nothing else, watchable.
And, to everyone else who claims her dress looks like “cheap tin foil”: would it be better if it looked like expensive tin foil?
(I personally adore the dress.)
“So much hatred for JA from the Brangeloonies – god forbid those people give her credit for anything.”
*************************************************
Oh good lord. She’s got a great body for her age, I will grant her that. That dress does not do her justice. She can do better than that. And she needs to stay out of the sun because her skin is showing the effects of too much tanning
If you think that sounds like “hatred”, you’ve got a real problem.
Rosalee and similar women-
One day you will wake up and realize that the true worth of a woman is not trapped in how she physically looks. In fact, most of the comments are focused on her face, body, her hair, her tan ( which is excessive, but so what?), her boobs, butt, legs.
I am not sure if I agree with your comment of her being at her apex. Recently, she produced and starred in the movie called “Management.” Did anyone see this movie? It did quite poorly at the box office. In fact, she generated less than 1 million in sales in the U.S. She will soon release another movie called “The Baster.” She produces in this movie as well as is the star.
While I think she is pretty and likeable, I cannot co-sign with the gratuitous perceptions of her as “strong, classy, mature or secure.” In fact, you can be quite prosperous and have many friends without it.
She revealed too many of her catty, negative thoughts about Brad and Angelina in print throughout 2005. While it was expected that she would grieve, what wasn’t expected was to witness a series of ill-fated hook-ups, a consistent habit of talking about or making reference to Brad and/or Brad’s family, or stating in print that she still loves Brad/saves his old voicemails. This is inappropriate now because there are more than 3 adults who are involved.
There are now 6 CHILDREN who will soon learn of their father’s ex-wife’s desire to remain related in some way.
Jennifer won an award for her long-term success in business and yet most people who respond to blogs, including this one, cannot seem to focus on just that.
Jesus please us, all this stupid carping. Any mous, WTF is the matter with you? There is no need to get all bitch with somebody just because they express a different opinion from yours. You act like a stupid teenager.
Yes Jennifer looks good for her age. Nobody is arguing differently. And yes that dress is a bad choice. It’s not appropriate for her or for the occasion. It’s too short and too tight. And yes age does matter. Just because a 40 year old can fit into a dress designed for a 20 year old doesn’t mean she should wear it. She’ll just manage to look silly in it.
Some of you don’t seem to recognize what honest criticism is. I totally agree she needs to stop tanning. Have any of you ever seen a case of basal cell carcinoma right smack dab in the middle of one’s face? I have and believe me, it ain’t pretty. And don’t even get started on melanoma. That shit is lethal. As any doctor will tell you.
If you guys are fans of Aniston you would write her and urge her to give up tanning for the sake of her health. At the very least, so she won’t end up looking like Joan Rivers.
Yeah she’s a pretty lady…the dress is perfect…but when is she ever gonna change that hairstyle? Her hair looks the same in all her movies too. B-o-r-i-n-g!
ROTFL Guess you’re still not done with me.
Why don’t you take a look at yourself before you’re so quick to criticize everyone else.
Fun tribute to women in entertainment, cinematographer’s, director’s and actor’s. The women looked gorgeous!
celebitchy man/woman, i think you may be crazy because that dress is positively horrid. her speech was impressive. the ensemble… not so much.
the outfit is also not age appropriate at all. it looks like something britney spears would have slipped into circa 2001…right after she changed out of her red leather jumpsuit
I LOVE the dress and she rocks it brilliantly! You go girl! It’s so nice to see something a bit different at an awards show, I get so bored with all these Stepford Wife red carpet numbers. BORING!! And I dont think its outdated at all – far from it – I think this is the sort of thing women will be wearing in future. Makes me think STAR TREK!!!! haha
And Aspen – you wrote what I was thinking so so well babe, I 100% agree with everything you said. The ladies here who are making jibes at Jen are either (a) too young to understand (b) jealous. Anyway, you put it much better than I ever could.. 🙂
I think the dress is unattractive. It’s just not a nice looking dress.
But too revealing? I think not. Has anyone seen how Heather Graham has been dressing recently? She’s approximately the same as Jennifer Aniston…and there seems to be no big controversy over Heather Graham’s crotch about an inch away from being exposed. Yet Jennifer Aniston looks like a “cheap cougar” for showing some cleavage?
There’s such a double standard for Jennifer Aniston. I’d hate to say it, but I believe it.
Actually, I don’t think that Jennifer looks good for her age. Yes she does have a nice figure (especially compared to “average” people.) but there are plenty of women that look better such as Cindi Crawford, Halle Berry, Sophia Loren (Yes, she’s like eleventy and has plastic surgery but I see her and thinkg dayum!)
It mainly has to do with her sun damage and frizzy hair. I think the hair could be fixed. Maybe she should adopt Ken Paves, I hear Jessica gave him up.
Jen looks great in that dress, she would look good in a sack. I doubt that anyone thought chicamorena/ cheyenne or all those other aliases she uses would have thought otherwise. after all she is a resident brangeloonie complete with a membership hat.
If Chelsea Handler really wanted less expansion on John Mayer’s visibility why should she mention it to Jen and verify his existence. Maybe Chelsea is a cougar and wants John in her dreams. All the while John is questioning his own sexuality preferences???
Ursula, a lot of us think the dress is unflattering and not up to her usual standards. Does that = brangaloonie? Or is your particular bias showing. You know it is possible to be critical of an outfit without being critical of the woman wearing it.
Josephina – you nearly had me until you reverted to catty comments without foundation. I expressed an opinion and you fumble back with tabloid generated crap.
her failed relationships are the only thing that keeps her relevant, so I guess she has to joke about them at “award” shows. what the heck kind of d-list consolation prize awards show was this? I guess this is the closest she will ever come to an oscar or golden globe. tacky woman who brings up her past relationships every chance she gets in order to get sympathy and headlines. oh, and if I ever had any doubt she has had a boob job,this dress just out it to rest. her tatas are way too symmetrically round in that dress-and its not an accident of too much yoga.
saggy cleavage, doubtless boob job, bloated stomach, damaged skin, etc., etc., etc. …
Are we looking at the same images? Talk about reaching. She looks great & I agree w/ those who said a younger girl w/ a worse body would hardly be able to carry off the same dress. The shoes esp are gorgeous.
As for her character, she’s charming & what she reportedly said only shows she not only has a good sense of humor but is well appreciated by many.
As for Aj – apples & oranges.
Thanks for the link Maria – SCARRY!
Jennifer is one of a few actresses who have managed to be humble and self deprecating and very funny. That is why women can relate to her.
only a 20 year old model could wear that dress…
that aside, she has a great body and is allowed to flaunt it.
Her skin and body are fine. She looks like she uses a lot of good fake tanner. When was the last time you saw pictures of her out tanning?
http://www.starmagazine.com/jennifer_aniston_tanning_beds/news/14669
http://bricksandstonesgossip.com/2008/12/04/jennifer-aniston-leaving-ibiza-tanning-salon/
I’m pretty sure she was laying out tanning on her trips to Mexico last year I think? She does look great in a bikini. She probably does use self tanning sprays but she also isn’t taking the best care of her skin.
There were rumors that she used male hormones to stay skinny. Of course just rumors…
She is sooooo boring!!!!!
The dress looks cheap and tacky. Too low cut. Boobs falling out. UGH! She’s really starting to look like Donatella Versace. Does her tanning salon have a rottisserie setting? Ewwww
Sorry, I don’t understand why she’s received this award? Expanding women’s roles in film? HOW? She plays whiny, spoiled Rachel over and over and over And, she gets an award for it?? What a slap in the face to all the talented actresses out their like Kate Winslet, Kate Blanchett, and so forth. Grrrrr
I really think that it is sad when women put other women down. For the poster who said that her failed romances are all she is known for. This last Christmas she had the top movie for 9 days straight. Her last movie before that also made over 200 million worldwide. You may “hate” her but by putting down her accomplishments you also put down women in general. I already know the answers that some will give – it was because of Owen – it was because of Vince. But their latest films haven’t done that well. And what a way to make it look like a woman can never do well unless there is a man involved. How about giving women credit. It really makes me sad when women say such nasty things in general like a women is only a female if she doesn’t have children. And the obsession about tanning. Really that is what we as women do now – talk on and on about a woman who tans and make that a big bad thing. Seriously women all over the world are being raped, beaten, having their rights taken away. And here we are trying to make someone look bad because they tan and don’t have a child. Really sad. It makes me sick what women do to other women.
The only thing that’s ridiculous is her inability to stay away from reading every word about a celebrity she’s obsessed with bashing due to her own pitiful life. Nice try Chicamorena to pretend to be someone else so you can defend yourself. What a pitiful loser you are. My post isn’t any nastier about her than the average post she/you makes about Aniston. Maybe you can recognize your own classlessness while standing in front of the mirror you speak of.
—————————————
Any Mous, I’m guessing you are talking about me lol! you are a joke.
I stepped away from the PC to have a life, it was an enjoyable one to.
I’m back now.
Chicomorena and I are two different posters. You can easily tell if you slow down and read the post. I’m sure our writing styles are different.
Loads of other posters and I agree with Chicomorena that the dress Jen is wearing looks like cheap tin foil your personal attacks on posters still don’t change that fact.
Here is another point you raised->
The only thing that’s ridiculous is her inability to stay away from reading every word about a celebrity she’s obsessed with bashing due to her own pitiful life.
—————–
WOW! I guess you told me huh–but here is one thing? why did that statement really sound like a description of you instead of me?
You see, to me you have a very pitiful life. You are so filled with vengeful bitterness that you road this blog so long cutting every body down who disagreed with the way Aniston was dress.
How much of the Jolie/Pitt tabloid lies do you believe? I don’t know who you are no more than you know who I am but do to the way you were posting up their spoke volumes to you mental state.
I would say you seemed to be the one obsessed here.
Seems to me you live a very horrid life. May be you should step away from the posting and go enjoy life a little then you will not be such a bitter nasty poster. Have a good day-if you can.
I have a wonderful life. If you read my posts, while I am an Aniston fan, I don’t feel the need to rip Jolie every chance I get. I don’t read much about her, since she doesn’t interest me. Why do people follow a celebrity and devour evey word they can find about her, if they don’t like anything about them? No one seems to be able to give an answer to that.
You don’t have to agree with me, but you don’t see me making scathingly nasty posts about celebrities I don’t care for. I wouldn’t waste my time. Posters that can’t trash someone enough are another story. Like it/don’t like it. Doesn’t matter to me.
I dont know why people have such a hard time believing JA can receive an award. she has received countless awards for her career. now she gets honored for women in film and the world just cant wait to say something nasty. when was the last time you were recognized nationally? if AJ were the one being recognized i would take the time to reflect on her career, not how many people she has slept with.
The dress is hot! it would look like shit on alot of other people! For once can we recognize her for working her ass off(physically and professionaly)because her and many others, AJ included, deserve it?!
This site is called celebitchy. This is where we come to read about celebrity gossip. If you’re so concerned about women being raped and murdered then how come you’re not on a different website?
It IS weird that she gets an award for playing the same character over and over again.
The movie Marley and Me was a big hit because of the dog, not her. It also helps that it is a popular book.
But seriously, I have never seen a role she has played besides Rachel Green where I have thought to myself “She is the only one who could do that.” Any other actress could do what she does and probably for less money.
I don’t hate Jennifer Aniston. If it wasn’t for the Bermuda Triangle no one would even care about her. Getting a divorce from Brad was the best career move she has ever made.
Any mous this site is for discussing celebs not discussing posters but you enjoy bashing posters you know nothing about wow! to each his own.
————–Any mous question->
Why do people follow a celebrity and devour evey word they can find about her, if they don’t like anything about them? No one seems to be able to give an answer to that.
—————————————
Any Mouse, for the answer to that question may be you can go to a Jolie thread and ask some of the posters who are bashing Jolie that question.
My comment was about her dress or therefore the lack of and Seems her goal was to show as much skin as you can to catch a man.
Lol she is practically saying the samething herself, “She is looking for a everlasting relationship with an adult.”
sanaiya, I don’t need to go to a Jolie thread and ask that, since, as stated, she doesn’t interest me. I asked you. But your point appears to be that since people do it to Jolie, that makes it ok. I find that beyond childish, but if that’s your answer, so be it.
And yes I do feel free to question posters when their goal seems to be posting as much negativity as possible about someone they dislike so. The same people never resist an opportunity to make a vile comment. You might find it normal behaviour in your world, but claiming to be such happy people while posting nothing but hate and nastiness seems like a major contradiction to me. That isn’t directed at you, since I’ve never noticed your name before this thread, but it applies to enough in here to be a valid point whether you acknowledge that or not.
Rosalee,
I do not read tabloid crap, I simply do not trust what is printed. My exposure to them extends no further than the grocery check out line. I do follow interviews done in magazines like Vanity Fair, People, and live interviews such as Oprh and Barbara Walters. I thought my post was more than long enough, so I did not reference the interviews where she has stated the distasteful remarks.
Please google 2005 and Aniston’s interviews. Don’t forget to read the Vanity Fair article in 2005 as well.
An award for “expanding women’s roles in film”? HOW? She plays the same whiny, sad, romantic-loser victim roles. How is that MEANINGFUL for women?There are a lot of wonderful actresses taking on challenging and interesting roles out there. I LOVE KATE WINSLET. She’s done SO many interesting roles. Same goes for Charlize Theron and Reese. This award is a slap in the face to women. All it says is be popular and make cheesy, crappy movies that make money and we will reward you for it. Don’t go out on the limb, don’t try to stretch your talent, don’t take unique, intersting or edgy material. THIS AWARD IS A SLAP IN THE FACE TO WOMEN.
LOL, some people had/ve so much emotional investment in Brad and Jen.
Find another footnote, it’s almost 2010.
Totally agree whatever! Best comment ever.
Hahahahaha… this article is just insane, and the posts (lol). Can’t help laugh till midnight…
well me and jennifer get kinda high on the marrage supper of the lord and all those high women and i think shes brave to get to know me. shall i take the halocost again.i dont blaim her for being scared i beat the almighty in the end.hell i better lay off
