Over the weekend the news came out that Jennifer Aniston would guest star on soap staple Days of Our Lives. It wasn’t a bad idea actually, as Jennifer could help boost ratings for the show along with help out her dad, who plays long-running character Victor Kiriakis. Only that story isn’t true, according to her rep who comments on everything except for her major gaffes.
Sorry to say, America’s favorite Friend (or her evil twin) will not be dropping by Salem.
Aniston’s rep denied the rumor to E! News this morning, saying there was no truth to the rumors.
Too bad. Guess Victor Kiriakis is going to have to find another wedding planner.
And America’s housewives will have to make do with just one Aniston on the airwaves. The 78-year-old John has played the Greek conniver on the soap for more than 24 years, appearing in 1,199 episodes to date.

I watched Days off and on the past year or so, but kind of stopped once they replaced a character I really liked with an actress I found annoying. There was also a very ridiculous plotline about an evil twin guy that was created through plastic surgery to fool his wife while the real husband was kidnapped. I guess that’s par for the course when it comes to the dying art that is the soap opera. Spoilers potentially for Days It’s nice to hear that Jenn’s dad might be getting married on the show to Maggie, his maybe on-again girlfriend. They’re a cute couple. I have no idea if they’re engaged or even together at this point. That entire “wedding” angle could have been made up by that random British tabloid that falsely reported that Aniston was going to star.
Aniston should give her dad a call though and ask if he could find a guest role for her on the show. It would be a nice gesture and would earn her a lot of good will. Unlike actors like James Franco, she doesn’t really seem to be clamoring to expand her horizons, acting or otherwise. I know that sounds like an over generalization, but she is a creature of habit. Maybe her new man is helping her out in that department.
This photo is from 1995 of Jenn with her dad. Cute!

That is a cute pic of her and her dad. I think it would be cool if she went on Days of our Lives, but I’d be very surprised if she did.
Hot Couple!
I would have thought it would have been sweet to help out her Dad there was a big Friends/Days connection way back when. BTW in the fall a lot of old time Days actors are coming back on so I think the quality should improve from how crappy it’s been lately.
So much more stunning with brown hair!
Maybe you could include James Scott (EJ Dimera) in Hot Guy Friday?
Let me rephrase that: Please, please, please include James Scott in Hot Guy Friday!! 🙂
That’s a really funny pic of her and her dad, the way her hair is curling makes it look like she is plump with a double chin!! Hee Hee, one for the fridge maybe?!!
Wow – she looks so different in the photo with her dad. Different as in “before she had cosmetic surgery on her face” different.
I ended up sort of watching Days of Our Lives at the gym today (it was that or Fox news, and since Fox news would actually give me a stroke while on the treadmill, the soaps it was). Um. As someone who never watched any soap opera ever–is it always that absurd/badly acted/dull/banal? If I were JA I’d stay miles and miles away.
Love her! She look’s so good before & now!, and it’s been years since that pic with her and her dad. If people say other wise because she’s had work done or whatever who cares if she has or hasn’t. You can also say that about almost every actor/actress they all have had some work done so lets not go there. i don’t think she has and if she has it’s been very little .But her over all look is fantastic for age it has stayed very natural because she keep’s her body in shape and it shows truly a timeless women
My god, I never noticed before how much she’s Anglicised her face. In the picture with her dad she looks like a cute Greek chick!
Justin is sooo hot. I saw him in person! good for her
