Jennifer Aniston “stars” in Ellen DeGeneres’ 10th season promos: adorable?

Ellen DeGeneres has just released the promos (promotional commercials) for the new season of her talk show. Can you believe Ellen is going into her 10th year as a talk show host? It’s kind of crazy and wonderful to think of what twists and turns her career has taken, and how she’s currently one of the most popular and beloved figures on television. Anyway, Ellen got a special guest star for her promos – her friend Jennifer Aniston! Aniston appears in two new TV spots for Ellen’s show, and both are rather cute. In the first one, Jennifer says that “Coming on Ellen’s show is different than doing any other show… because Ellen takes care of you from the moment you get here.” Then you see Ellen “taking care” of Jennifer by vacuuming her armpits and messing up her hair and such. Then you see DeGeneres brushing Aniston’s famous head of hair, doing her makeup and then vacuuming her armpit and backside. The second video is where Ellen tries to “Beyonce” Jennifer by giving her a wind machine during the promo. The third video is kind of mean/funny – Ellen tells Jennifer to cover up “her bad side” during the promo.

They’re cute, right? I mean, it’s nothing groundbreaking or anything, it’s just a cute way for Ellen to promote her show with one of her friends. I’ve actually kind of wondering about Ellen and Jennifer over the past year – even though Jennifer (and Justin Theroux) appeared on Ellen’s show to promote Wanderlust, Ellen also spent time helping Brad Pitt promote Moneyball (or Tree of Life, I forget) last year, and then Ellen hosted Brad’s Make It Right NOLA fundraiser several months ago too. Ellen is definitely trying to stay friendly with both Brad and Jennifer. Which is fine! She doesn’t have to take sides. I was just surprised that Ellen hadn’t chosen sides already.

    Why is man face famous again?

  2. Marc says:

    She is super cute. I adore her.

    • Tillie says:

      I like her too! She is very funny and looks great. Don’t like her latest movies though..

  3. Po says:

    Unless they were super close I don’t see why she would have to pick sides. When I hear about Brad and Jennifer I rarely hear that they’re not decent people. Iknow it gets a little intense in the comments section of these posts but I don’t see it being that intense between the actual people.

    • beyonce's bump says:

      this is what I keep saying. I believe the tabloids, public, media have concocted this alternate story in their mind, makes for more drama and excitement that way. I do not believe thing are that complicated or mean spirited but then again, boring never sells….in lala land.

    • lucy2 says:

      Agree – they are all adults who have moved on and are happy in their lives – but that doesn’t sell tabloids or rile up the superfans on either side.

  4. Jackie O says:

    ‘im not a model’. she’s got that right.

    wish i could find ellen funny, but she doesn’t even give me a chuckle.

    • flourpot says:

      ditto. i like Ellen but I don’t find her funny, either.

      • buckley says:

        I used to like Ellen and kinda still find her funny but don’t be fooled by this one.
        I have it from very good authority that she is a not a very nice person at all.

      • Lana says:

        buckley, Aniston is not a nice person at all either if you read her interviews and her hiring of Handler to attack Angelina. I can’t understand how anyone can like Aniston, can’t they see through her fake persona and her nasty manipulations? Aniston is a malicious and nasty person.

  5. Amy says:

    Correct me if I’m wrong but I think Jennifer Aniston was the first guest ever to be on Ellen’s show when it premiered 10 years ago. It makes sense for Aniston to be in these promos for the 10th anniversary!

  6. Cleveland Girl says:

    I’m not sure about these. I don’t watch “Ellen” and this is not persuading me to turn in. I also think that the whole Angie/Brad/Jennifer thing is O-V-E-R. Seriously.

  7. Bite me aka aniston says:

    Cute… Brad and Ellen have been friends for well over20 years now. In their business it’s best to be on everyone good side

  8. RocketMerry says:

    Aw, cute promos 🙂

  9. samira677 says:

    I don’t think Ellen is in Jennifer’s “Goddess Circle” just casual friends. I think they hang out time to time but that’s it. Same with Brad Pitt. Ellen doesn’t strike me as someone who holds a grudge or takes sides like Jennifer’s other friends.

    • Rhea says:

      This. I think as a host for a talk show Ellen is being smart by standing neutral. 🙂

    • Mac says:

      Ellen and Jennifer seem to have remained close over the years.

      I’ve heard Ellen introduce Jennifer as “my dear friend” and Jennifer always seems willing to accomodate Ellen by appearing on her show and participating in every stunt, gag or prank that Ellen has planned.

      Meanwhile Jennifer recently turned down Chelsea Handler’s invitation to appear on her new sitcom.

  10. lucy2 says:

    Cute ads! I’m never home to watch Ellen, but the few times I’ve seen it, I’ve enjoyed it. I’m glad she’s had such success with the show.

  11. sup says:

    rachel green over and over again

  12. Minimi says:

    The promos are funny and Jennifer looks super cute in here 🙂

  13. Krock says:

    I thought it was cute and fun. Its cool to see Jennifer having fun and being silly.

  14. cee says:

    Can not stand Aniston. Keeps getting pushed in our face. What has she done to deserve any of this attention.

    • DenG says:

      Because the best thing that ever happened to her is being the Former Mrs. Brad Pitt. Can we imagine what level of interest there would be about her if she weren’t the FMBP? Be honest. Nada.

  15. hillbilly in the corner says:

    The word Cute and Jennifer Anniston should not be used in the same sentence….She is Not Cute,,,,,,,,
    Mannish, Gawky, Awkward.

  16. mln76 says:

    Cute!!! This is the Jen I like TV JEN!!!

  17. Janet says:

    The last word I would ever use to describe a 43 year old woman is adorable.

  18. marie says:

    I like Jennifer but in that last picture she looks like Goldie Hawn at the end of Death Becomes Her..(can’t watch the promos, won’t work on my computer)

    • lisa2 says:

      I have always said she reminds me of Goldie in so many ways. They have the exact same body type. And Goldie has not changed her look or mannerisms in years.

    • Marycontrary says:

      Oh, wow. How have I missed it? She and Goldie are pretty much spot ON. Huh. I like them both!

  19. Cathy says:

    I’m not a big Ellen fan, but those promos are cut. min76 is right, this is the Jen I like, tv jen. She needs a new show, not more romcoms.

  20. Adrien says:

    She looks great.

  21. dorothy says:

    Cute promos. Love Ellen.

  22. floretta50 says:

    Jennifer Aniston have not given up on being Ms Brad Pitt again, earlier this month she was seen with George Clooney and Stacy, that would be Angelina’s role don’t you think? Ellen and Brad is buds she even bought his house that was up for sale,JA said no to Justin’s engagement, actions speak louder than words, JA is a woman on a mission to get back her ex husband.

    • lisa2 says:

      I’m not a fan of hers by any stretch of the imagination. But I don’t believe the tabloid covers about her anymore then I do about Brad/Angie.

      Ellen is the host of a show. Brad has done nothing to Ellen and neither has Angelina. Brad did Ellen’s show last year for the first time and it was a great show. Angie did the show 2 times and again great shows. So why would Ellen “take sides” in anything. There is nothing to take side about after over 7 years.

      I doubt Justin proposed. And there is only a few Jenfans that are still hoping for some reunion. I don’t get that crazy so can’t explain it.

    • LucyOriginal says:

      Why would be Angelina’s role if George is Jen’s friend way before he worked with Brad Pitt? He knows Jen way back when they were on tv and one of his best friends was a producer (or something) in “Friends”.

    • Mac says:

      George Clooney recently characterized his relationship with Brad Pitt as “a Hollywood friendship” and said that they seldom speak.

      • pamela says:

        Recently as in seven years ago, and since then george has been tslking about his “good friend” Brad. Or didn’t you see him in action during The Oscars last year?

    • sup says:

      i agree completely

  23. Mara says:

    This was so funny !

  24. Dash says:

    Her lips look weird to me. Injection or something?

  25. Ally says:

    I’ve always liked the chemistry between Ellen and Jen. I’m not sure why their friendship is in question, it’s common knowledge they’re close.

    I’d love to see them in a movie together, a well written comedy preferably. I miss Ellen’s acting.

  26. birdie says:

    To me, she is always kind of slurring her words. She doesn’t talk very clear. Maybe some medication.

  27. hillbilly in the corner says:

    I don’t understand this she is still trying to get Brad Pitt back….
    They devoriced years ago…and he has moved on and found another woman, whom he has had 3 thats right 3 children and adopted 3 more…that to be is a declaration even a idiot to understand that he is over and done with her….He has want he wants Angelina and the children…and even if something happened and they parted he still would not take her back.. She is his past…don’t over with….and he doesn’t want to visit their again…
    I will never happen ….

    • claire says:

      Brad and Angelina seem to share many interests: photography, traveling, charity, international politics, architecture, design, etc. I think the people that think Brad would have any interest in getting back with Jen are delusional. She’s vapid. What would they talk about? Haircare? Skincare?

    • sup says:

      because she keeps grudging and likes to victimize herself… and she is perpetually stuck in the past… the term “moving on” does not exist in her dictionary… and she misses being the centre of attention as BP’s wife…

  28. claire says:

    Ugh. I just cannot stand this woman. She’s boring. She’s bland. She’s one-dimensional in her acting. Her movies are all bombs. If she hadn’t been married to Brad Pitt, or hadn’t had a tragic dating history over the years, we would have heard the last of her years ago. It’s like Hollywood keeps trying to make her a “thing”, but it’s not happening. No substance. Fade into the limelight already, Jen.

  29. blonde on the dock says:

    I think they’re cute together. I like Jennifer Aniston. Like any actress she’s made some good movies others not so great. Wanderlust was awful IMO.

    • Lana says:

      Shes not a nice person though.

      • GrandPoobah says:

        Lana: And you know this…how exactly?

      • Lana says:

        Her own interviews, GrandPoobah. Her own words. And her friendship with Handler. Her actions and behaviour over the past 8 years. Its really that simple.

      • Linda says:

        It’s only simple to a nut case like u Lana. Rational people do not obsess over every single thing that comes out of the mouth of Jennifer Aniston.

      • Lana says:

        “Linda”, or whoever you are, I certainly do not ‘obsess over every detail’ about Aniston, and I hardly talk about her, I don’t know why you ASSume I do, simply because I gave my opinion. What I said, is what is clear to everyone and obvious to anyone with eyes and a brain, even her own fans can see it. Its that obvious, and you know it. Clearly you are the nut case because you obviously have a lot of psychological issues relating to Jennifer Aniston. I feel sorry for you. You are sick, and an obsessive psychotic nutcase who needs help.

  30. Kim says:

    Very funny. Honestly this is the best acting Ive ever seen Jennifer do. Seriously! She was natural and funny. The one about the best side was the funniest. You can tell her & Ellen are good buddies & she is comfortable W/ Ellen. She needs to start bringing Ellen with her to all her movie sets.

    • This is her shtick says:

      This kind of fun is where she thrives… it is her best shtick. But ask her a deep intellectual question and she stumbles. Just saying.

  31. Johnny says:

    Ellen and Jennifer are great long time friends… Love the promos! Both look fabulous!!

  32. floretta50 says:

    As soon as Brad Pitt is making definite plans to marry Angelina, JA is suddenly best buds with Brad Pitts close friends, mommy dearest writes a scaving letter to her home town news paper against gays and pres Obama Angie and Brad’s political advocates and some people on this thread say it’s not Jennifer Aniston last ditch effort to re-unite with her ex. If JA is so happy with her new man why go out of her way to irritate Angelina Jolie, imposing herself on Brad’s personal circle of friends,if the shoe was on the other foot would any of you like that? If the competition is done and over with JA should move on join Justin’s circle of friends, that’s the way I know it’s always done. JA is not done with her ex just watch!

    • GrandPoobah says:

      Floretta, Aniston was Ellen’s first guest on her show 10 years ago. It’s fitting that she appear in the promotions for the show.

      And I know that answering you is moot because you seem a tad unhinged but Aniston being friends with Ellen has nothing to do with Brad Pitt. She isn’t trying to irritate Jolie by continuing her friendship with Ellen. How that makes any sense in your manic little mind is a mystery to me.

      • Emma - the JP Lover says:

        Do you really think Floretta50 is talking about Ellen in her post. I think she’s talking about Jen’s newly ‘old’ friendship with George Clooney, Chelsea Handler’s ‘with Jen’s blessing’ attack on Angie and her kids, and the latest fall out from Mamma Pitt’s political letter to the press.

        Who invited the press to the private plane take off anyway?

  33. jazzmin says:

    Can’t help but think: why oh why must every story on JA turn into a Angelina/Brad/Jennifer comment tug-o-war? Angelina/Brad/Jennifer have moved on but apparently some people have not. I rarely comment or read on any story regarding JA/AJ/BP because I already know what the comments will be like.

    • Because says:

      I think it’s because people feel her claim to fame (apart from Friends) is being attached to the Brad-Angie triangle, on mediocre talent and looks.

  34. Pat Dorty says:

    I don’t get what people see in her. I couldn’t get over her being voted the sexiest woman on earth? She’s all plastic! Check out some old pictures. Her movies all suck too. She got lucky with Friends.

  35. I want her foundation says:

    Okay, I’ve seen pictures where she has big pores on her face, but here her skin looks as smooth as silk. What foundation and cream does she use???? Tell me I gotta know!

    • Janet says:

      It’s called Creme de Photoshop.

      • I want her foundation says:

        LOL… But it’s in a video clip, and her skin is immaculate. They couldn’t photoshop that. I know, it’s fake, but wonder what kind of cream makes it look like a baby’s bottom. I mean this lady smokes, gets plenty of sun and her skin looks like that. C’mon, I gotta know what the secret cream is!

      • Camille (The original) says:

        You’ve obviously never heard of CGI then either I take it LOL.
        Not to mention that using good lighting, heavy makeup made for film/TV, etc and of course they can do stuff in post production to smooth stuff out.

      • Wow! says:

        Technology does amazing things. It is nice to Miss Aniston. When they come up with a foundation that can do that, I’m in.

  36. Sugar says:

    I watched the promos-they are cute & fun. There I said something nice for once where Jen is concerned & it didn’t kill me:/

  37. floretta50 says:

    Going out to dinner with your ex’s best friend and his girl friend who you have heard through the grape vine his new woman and your ex’s best friend girl friend does not get along and making sure the paps post your picture for the world to see all of them together, the only thing JA is trying to do is to still be a torn in Angie’s side, some people think JA is nice and innocent, who do you know behaves like that after a divorce, only unless the want to be devious.
