If you couldn’t tell by the recent spate of “selfies” which have included Jennifer Aniston, Aniston is in the throes of an image makeover. Sort of. It doesn’t seem so much like an image evolution as much as it seems like a 40-something woman experimenting with styles that “all the kids are trying.” She tried a radical hair treatment which burned off half her hair and she had to cut her hair into a bob afterwards. She got her ear cartilage pierced. She spent Thanksgiving with Taylor Swift’s BFF Ed Sheeran (the kids love Ed Sheeran!) instead of her fiancé Justin Theroux. It does feel like something is up… but maybe it’s not the same something we’re thinking. My first reaction was “a breakup announcement is coming,” but maybe Jennifer is just going through a mid-life crisis of sorts and she’s finally ready to shake up her same-old image?
Jennifer Aniston‘s new look is no accident — a source reveals to RadarOnline.com her shorter hair and piercings are part of a determined plan to give herself an edgy makeover and once again become a fashion icon. In fact, Aniston’s new style guru Kate Young is behind the change and fans can look forward to much more to come!
“Jen’s new look is far from the nonchalant boredom-driven choice that she’s playing it off to be,” an insider dished. “This change is entirely the creation of Kate, who is so influential in the New York fashion magazine scene. Kate will make sure magazines are using models with Jen’s new hairstyle and overall look by February.”
Aniston recently debuted a short A-line bob hairdo: As RadarOnline.com has reported, Aniston said the cut was a necessity after her hair was damaged by a Brazilian Blowout.
She also shrugged, “I was ready for a change.”
In addition, the former Friends star said she spontaneously decided to get an upper ear cartilage piercing. But the source told Radar it’s all part of a master plan, in part sparked by her fiance Justin Theroux‘s bad ass style.
“Kate and Jen planned to match her style with Justin’s a little bit more. But also, they really want to see how far they can push the rest of America. Kate has reignited Jen’s interest in being America’s primary hairstyle and fashion trendsetter.”
That means everything must go! Incredibly, the source reveals that Jen will be throwing out some of her $5,000 cocktail dresses that have won her red carpet raves.
“Jen cuts up some of her expensive clothes and puts them in the recycling bin because she doesn’t want them to end up on EBay,” the source added. “Her wardrobe now has a lot more jeans and boots as she’s making room for Kate’s new styles.”
This is idiotic: “Jen cuts up some of her expensive clothes and puts them in the recycling bin because she doesn’t want them to end up on Ebay.” Why not sell those clothes and give the money to charity? You could even do an Ebay auction and raise money for St. Jude’s, which is Jennifer’s big charity, right? As for the image change up stuff… sure. Some call it an attempt to “push America” into an edgier style (ha!), some call it a mid-life crisis. Same thing. I think Jennifer’s bob haircut, cartilage piercing & youth-befriending is the female equivalent of a 40-something dude getting a sports car.

ridiculous
Edgy as toast.
I pierced my ear cartilage back in the 80s. Is that considered edgy nowadays or would putting a hole in her lobe be edgy? BTW, the cartilage piercing took ages to not be too sore to sleep on or hold a phone to that ear and it grow over within minutes of the stud being removed.
Edgey? Douchey mote like it. Please tell me the cutting up of clothes is a joke.
This whole story sounds false. They have already broken up; she will be sporting her usual tired hairstyle when the damaged parts grow out and Huvane is still on speed dial.
Bottom line her and justin are dunzo, the way you get a man is the way you lose them… I no longer feel bad for this woman, it’s been 8 some odd years since her and brad have been divorced and she keeps picking the same type of guys over and over again… I’m over it
Virgo, +10000
Newsflash to everyone: If you are not edgey to begin with, you never will be, especially in your 40’s.
Jesus, just be who you are and grow up.
These Hollywood women give me a pain in their sad attempts to be trendy and cool. Being yourself is the coolest thing a woman can be. The need to be something you aren’t is “uncool” Jen.
Exactly. And that piercing is so silly.
So silly.
Not as silly as a bunch of weird tattoos.
@Cecilia
You think Justin’s tattoos are weird?
@zut alors
No…I think pretty much all tattoos are weird.
@Cecilia
So then Jen is both silly and weird with the cartilage piercing & the Norman tattoo?
@zut alors Hahaha you win the internet today! I see someone was gunning for another person we know has lots of tats but it came back biting as her favourite has some tats too. Someone didn’t consider that before commenting. 🙂 you win the internet today…. She is both silly and weird then in someone else’s words!
@zut alors! …
🙂 🙂 🙂
zut alors you owned Cecilia. lol
Does it bother anyone else that she’s trying to conform to what she thinks her boyfriend would like? It sort of rubs me wrong.
That’s what I was thinking. She’s trying to be more interesting to her hipster fiancé.
You mean ex-BF. These two are already over, just waiting for the right time to say so. Mark my words, before her 45th in February, there will be one of those ridiculous announcements, “too busy with work commitments, remain the best of friends, blah, blah, blah.” I know many of you out there like this woman, but she just too shallow and self involved for me to stomach. The things she does, says, and fills her time with might be appropriate for a flighty 21 year-old girl, but a woman more than twice that age should have more substantial concerns than her hair and where to get a piercing.
I’m totally with you, epiphany. I’ve been waiting, what – decades? – for Aniston to show that she ever even had the acting chops to have the bs Friends gig! And the worst case scenario should be that she kind of stinks but takes her massive fortune and tries to do a little good in the world (like doing more than ads for St. Judes: how about making a donation for the amount of one or two of the NYC apartments she bought, renovated, and then never moved into??
It was all downhill for her after her bit part in Office Space IMO. Damn I wish she would take her tired, tired act/persona/skills/priorities and just buy an island somewhere away from the rest of her peers who are either trying to live some kind of meaningful life through their work or interests. She’s become the mosquito of Hollywood – she’s even less interesting than Goopy Paltrow!
too moronic!
“Wow…The level of insecurity in you is ridiculous.”
_Tropic Thunder
Ha! Perfect. Her insecurity makes me cringe. I’m embarrassed for her and I don’t even like her.
Isn’t Justin one of the credited writers on Tropic Thunder? How prescient!
She reminds me of how Jodie Foster looked a few years ago.
I had 14 inches cut off my hair last week to donate to a charity that makes wigs for sick kids,
no articles or write ups either, I need better “sources” and “insiders” to get the inside info out!
Edit to add: anyone here in Ireland interested in doing the same please check out The Rapunzel foundation
I’m sending you an e-hug. I’d donate my hair but.. it’s been a good 14 years since I had any hair to speak of.
No comment.
BS, women change their hairstyles no conspiracy here, she had short hair before, she had long hair, she had wavy hair. The usual folks with the tin foil hats will be flocking here pulling some crap how this is somehow connected to the Jolie-Pitts or that she’s desperate because what’s his face is breaking up with her..let the drama begin.
Jennifer Aniston edgy? Good luck with that.
That sounds like a lot of made up Radar nonsense. A woman got a haircut. I don’t know why some insist on treating it as anything more than that.
Of course it’s made up fluff, but because it’s Jennifer it’s all true & just so horrible. It IS just a haircut.
I call bs. I seriously doubt she is all of a sudden going for edgy. She looks exactly the same, but with somewhat shorter hair, and is wearing the same clothes as she always has. I do think her sudden need for selfies is juvenile and too D-list, but otherwise, I see no changes at all. I think this is just an article to rile people up — I’m not willing to believe such an idiotic story just because I don’t really care for her.
^This I’m calling BS
Cuts up clothes. Ugh. If she doesn’t want to sell the 100s of black dresses she owns, pack them all up and throw them in a donation bin, you selfish dumbass.
If this is true, she (and her new stylist) are more pathetic than ever. They want to see “how far they can push the rest of America?” Um. With a bob and ear piercing? Is she 14? The rest of America has been piercing all sortsa shit with all sortsa things for at least decades. And a BOB is edgy? YFKM.
Is she 14? …yes, her emotional IQ is indeed, 14.
Touche.
A haircut can make you edgy? I want to be edgy too! I’m off to schedule my next appointment! LOL.
Oooh, yeah, a diamond cartilage piercing is SO EDGY.
It is for an actress on set who thinks not having mascara on is the most challenging move and risk she took for a role.
Lol did she really say that?
I don’t know if she said that one, but I did hear her say that wearing a brown wig for Horrible Bosses was her “huge acting risk.” I heard it out of her own mouth. Being a brunette just stretched her to her very limits.
Jennifer Aniston graces the cover of Allure magazine’s February 2011 issue, on newsstands Tuesday (January 25).
Here’s what the 41-year-old leading lady had to share:
On the famous “Rachel” ‘do: “I love Chris [McMillan, her hairstylist], and he’s the bane of my existence at the same time because he started that damn Rachel, which was not my best look. How do I say this? I think it was the ugliest haircut I’ve ever seen. What I really want to know is, how did that thing have legs? Let’s just say I’m not a fan of short, layered cuts on my personally, so I don’t love revisiting that particular era.”
On changing things up for her most recent films: “I didn’t wear mascara in Just Go With It. It’s fun to transform a little bit — what did I have to lose? I was ready to be silly and go with a full-out comedy, and it was the first time I felt truly sure about what I was walking into. Because with the last couple of movies, I wasn’t completely sure, and I should have probably trusted my gut. For whatever reason, they all happen the way they’re supposed to.”
From Just Jared, under Jennifer Aniston covers Allure mag.
I’m guessing the reason why she doesn’t want to donate clothes to charity is because if those clothes don’t sell as well as she hopes then her ego & image would be hurt.
Oh yes…I’m so sure you are right. *rolls eyes out of head*
lol so true – Jennifer is not that famous and she/her ego wouldn’t have been able to handle it if none of her clothes were sold. The only people who would have been slightly interested in buying would have been teenagers because those are the ones who would wear Jennifer’s mini dresses but unfortunately they wont have the money to actually buy them.
+10000
IDK, this story seems like a load of crap. I am no fan of Aniston at all but uh, this story makes no sense. This so-called stylist really thinks a bob and ear piercing is so edgy? The part that had me LOL was this:
“This change is entirely the creation of Kate, who is so influential in the New York fashion magazine scene. Kate will make sure magazines are using models with Jen’s new hairstyle and overall look by February.”
uh, yeah.
And the dresses? Yeah, trash/destroy them. As if Huvane would let such an opportunity to be seen as charitible slip away.
Anyhoo, who knows, Aniston could be trying to make herself cooler to appeal to Justin cause we know that brief move to NY, and all her talk of NY being home, was pure bait and switch. But the stuff they have in this story is just ridiculous – a bob and piercing are edgy? If I were Kate the stylist I would sue them for slander.
Hey, Aniston is always good for a laugh (thanks btw, Radar) but this here is straight up Radar fiction. Bad fiction at that.
ETA: Btw, “edgy” is mostly about attitude and nothing about Aniston’s attitude screams edgy. To start she needs to own this damn hairstyle and stop hiding it.
So the “source” is ignoring the first story she told–which was that she ruined her hair w/a Brazilian? Wonder who that “source” is?? coughcoughhuvanecoughcough
Anyway…..this is boring and predictable. I know someone on here suggested on one of her posts that she was going to try to spin her haircut and piercing as being edgy–which at 45, I don’t know why she feels the need to be ‘edgy’, no matter who she’s with.
I do think they have broken up and are just waiting to announce it, so I’m going to file this one under part 1 of “Justin was soooo controlling–he wanted me to be an edgy NY hipster, just like him!” stories/rumors.
(ooh look, a SHORT post–well short for me. Give me some wedding drama and I’ll be back 😉
LOL, short but succinct!
I completely agree, I think they have broken up too, likely several months ago. BUT. My beef is: if they have broken up, why hasn’t Justin released a statement? He’s probably to “cool” for something like that. But then I think, if he’s really as “cool” as he thinks he is, why is he playing Jennifer’s game of letting the media know they are done when it works for her/on her terms? It’s a really weird situation, imo.
If, IF they have split, I think it’s his choice. It’s not working for him.
To be kind she gets a chance to prepare and rebrand herself as refocused on her career and not needing to be married at this time to experience life to the fullest. Blah, blah…. He’s being a gentleman or something to make up for dumping her.
If SHE initiated the break, it would be just be done. It would be her leaving him in the dust with her empowerment.
@littlestar
I do think he wants fame that badly, so they haven’t released a statement. I also think he’s a total dickwad. When the rumors about him and Jennifer were going around (when he was still w/Heidi)–HE didn’t straight out and say that he and Jennifer were only friends, that they weren’t in an innapropriate relationship–HE had Jennifer going to PEOPLE w/”sources” saying that “Jennifer would never get with a guy who has a girlfriend”. HE had Heidi’s MOM running to radaronline (or whichever tabloid) saying that it came “straight from his own mouth” that they were just friends/business partner’s in the making. HE hasn’t done a damn thing, but talk about how lucky he is to be with Jennifer. HIS pr isn’t the one going around spreading the wedding rumors–Jennifer’s is (w/PEOPLE anyway).
I think that when they announce their breakup is dependent on whether or not 12 YAS is an Oscar front runner AND/OR whether or not his HBO pilot is a hit (which I think it will be–he’s a better actor than writer for me). Then they both get what they want.
Justin DID follow her around for 2 years and let her make him over–which I am glad he boot his NY, lace up, combat, hipster booted feet down on that one. He looked awful–I thought he was really hot (except for those skinny jeans) up until I saw him w/orange skin, mascara, and plucked eyebrows–I can’t unsee that.
He smart enough to know, like Eddie Cibrian, that if he keeps his mouth shut, he looks better by default–in the long run. Because when/if these two breakup (obviously that they’re not together is MY opinon, and I will happily eat crow if I’m wrong), sure Justin might take the heat for a little bit, from the media. But then the people who have just started to read gossip (like I did four years ago), or who are just curious about it in general will look back and see the real story–that neither one of these two are all that interested in spending time with each other–which I find weird for an engaged couple. Not saying you need to be glued at the hip at all times.
And I predict that Jennifer will at least try and get in one crackshot (I hope Justin’s the “Angelina” in this one—“What Justin did was so uncool, but Heidi’s amazing” type thing)–and if she does, then Justin’s going to ignore it, etc….that’s how I think it’ll go down.
I broke my short and succint streak–ah well, I wouldn’t be Virgilia if I didn’t ramble on—I should write a book 🙂
“I think that when they announce their breakup is dependent on whether or not 12 YAS is an Oscar front runner AND/OR whether or not his HBO pilot is a hit (which I think it will be–he’s a better actor than writer for me). Then they both get what they want.”
THIS! I try to never comment on the Triangle of Doom, because come on people, it’s been 8+ years already, however, Jen/Huvane are so obvious now when it comes to their PR moves. I also agree with G, that if she did the dumping, we would have heard about it by now. So she’s just waiting for the “perfect” time to announce their split. And why not wait for when Brad and AJ are going to be in the media? Because Jen knows that in order to maximize her exposure, the best way to do it is to link her name to theirs, even if it’s just a breakup with a hipster.
I’m pretty neutral on JA, she doesn’t do much for me but I don’t hate her either, but this is just so sad already. It’s the same “poor me poor me” schtick over and over again and she’s almost 45, for the love of gahd. Anyway, I hope she doesn’t prove me wrong because this will make me look like a fool and I don’t want to eat my words haha.
@littlestar
Me, too. To be fair to her, I only bring up ‘they who must not be named’ because she is still connected with them–through her own choosing. If it was only tabloids that linked them together, then I wouldn’t be saying anything. SHE has ties to them because SHE wants them there. No other reason. Case in point–Chelsea Handler. Jennifer is a grown ass woman. If she really didn’t want to be tied to the JP’s anymore–then guess what? She would’ve either told Chelsea to STFU about Angelina or they were done being friends. Chelsea started ranting about Angelina in 2011–right after Jennifer hooked up with Justin (who’d been double teaming Heidi for a good six months at least). Makes you think, doesn’t it?
I mainly don’t like Jennifer (beyond her annoying acting) because she has had nothing but nice things to say about Brad–saying that she’s proud of him, proud of his work, his awards, said that she told him congratulations on his babies—she’s the nice, sweet, exwife TO HIM. But with Angelina, a woman whom she’s only shaken hands with literally–there’s an issue. But there isn’t one with Brad. There’s a big enough issue that she feels the need to bring up a cartoon about her shooting Angelina. There’s a big enough issue that she needs to say Angelina is uncool for going into details about how she and Brad got together (even though I read Angelina’s interview and that isn’t true at all–she talked very generally). There’s a big enough issue that Jennifer needs to tell the reporter to turn off the recording device, so she can talk about Angelina, to the reporter, off the record. But she didn’t feel the need to do that when the subject of Brad or her divorce came up. Interesting.
THAT is what really annoys me, and what really made me stop being neutral on her–after I put those pieces together. It especially annoys me now because my older sister is in a situation like that. Now–she did do wrong. I’m not disputing that at all. She got pregnant by her friend, who is still in a long term relationship with the same woman. The girlfriend is still with this guy–BUT she talks nasty to and about my sister every chance she gets. I mean, every time my sister drops my nephew off at their house, there’s an issue, because of the girlfriend. But the girlfriend isn’t pissed at her boyfriend–she’s pissed at my sister. She’s still living with, sleeping with, cooking/cleaning up for this guy–but it’s my sister who’s the issue (who only talks to either of the two when it involves my nephew).
But that’s how I feel.
And at this point, even if they aren’t broken up–they will be. Because I don’t think she even learned her lesson about her marriage. She and Brad for the last two years were basically separated by work. I remember the infamous interview when he was filming Troy, that she went to visit him once in 8 months—and then told a reporter that she liked having the house to herself, she having it the house the way she wanted it while Brad was gone.
You can’t have a relationship, be gone for half of it, and expect for it to be as healthy as when you first started, or even grow. They’re like roommates with benefits. If I wanted to be alone, I wouldn’t have a dude around–I especially wouldn’t be engaged to him. I think they’re both over it–neither of them even really try to be with each other, when one of them isn’t filming. That’s why I think the JPs have that three day rule–Brad learned his lesson. It’s hard on a relationship, on a family, if you’re not there. Like I remember reading about Steven Spielberg (my director crush–I would marry him in a heartbeat–I don’t care how old he is)—his wife told him that he was away too much, he worked too much, and that it was negatively impacting their family–so he didn’t do another film for five years. Those are the kinds of sacrifices that you make for your family or loved ones–so I don’t think either of us will have to eat crow.
Hmmm. I think that it’s really too bad she was so public with their relationship and engagement. She’s stuck providing the third act somehow.
I really think another round of “poor Jen” would be devastating personally and professionally. I hope Huvane knows that.
@The Original G
I hope he is too–he should’ve stopped that nonsense BEFORE she had that “5 Years After Brad!” PEOPLE cover. I was in middle school when I saw it–“looking sexy is the best revenge–take that Brad!” Good God. Then came the Justin drama, so I think that was the beginning of the end in terms of goodwill.
Newsflash: If you try to look edgy, by definition you are not.
Eagerly awaiting new JA & JT pap shots – not!!
Whatever the reason(s), I’m delighted she’s given the “real housewife” look the heave-ho. She looks so much better.
Doubt this true. but I will say no one would be talking about this if she was not all of a sudden being featured on instagram pics all the time.That is new. And again it started when she got with Justin and that first pictures of her with him snapped by Pervy Terry. So she is obviously fine with her life being put out there. First the no makeup, then the hair cut, next the look who I spent Thanksgiving with. She should never ever complain about her privacy.
but doubt the story is true. Edgy is not a word you associate with Aniston. Even if she is with a guy that loves skinny jeans and biker boots.
Hmmmm I’m going to agree that they have probably broken up already. The haircut is a post break up hairstyle.
Winnie the Pooh is more edgier than Jennifer will ever be.
Edgy and Sexy are two things Jennifer can never be no matter how hard she tries.
As for Jennifer trying to make herself change so that she can be more like her “fiance” – I mean come one this woman is 44 years old and she doesn’t have any confidence to just be herself? Jennifer is filled with insecurities and vanity that I am not surprised that she cannot sustain a lasting relationship. From all of her long term relationships – the men are the ones who have tried to compromise and not Jennifer. The all stop at one point – takes a look at themselves and then they dump Jennifer and moves on. After being dumped that many times – we can safely say that Jennifer is the problem and not them.
Lol!! Btw, CDAN has an amazingly juicy blind item – people are guessing that it’s about chelsy handler cheating with Justin Theroux. if this is true, we will all know soon enough.
http://www.crazydaysandnights.net/2013/12/todays-blind-items-best-friend.html
I dunno….. Not pretty if true.
What the what??? I’m not even sure if I can believe that—although I wouldnt be surprised (on Justin’s part). All I’m gonna say is that I remember on Chelsea’s show, Jennifer was subtly shading Chelsea when she said she saw Justin naked, saying that chelsea was always butting in and opening doors to rooms where she wasn’t supposed to be in.
That would be amazingly juicy gossip if true.
If there’s a split, I thought it was more like he’s a NY guy. More of an intellectual. More into the local colour. He’s had a look at her lifestyle and in the long run, decided that her would be just as happy with his 2 million dollar condo in NY as her 20 million dollar compound in LA.
He’s never struck me as the kind of guy who really wants to wait around with the chickens to check in with her betweeen spa appointments.
Agree, G. Always thought they were mismatched as a couple.
I still don’t get the Intellecual Hipster stuff. I’m not saying that Justin isn’t talented–he is–but he’s famous for three films. He was one of 5 or 6 cowriters for Tropic Thunder—he wrote Ironman 2, which was awful–and he wrote Rock of Ages, which I haven’t heard much raving about the script (or the performances)–so I’m gonna go with it was okay. I buy that he’s the type to read books with actual words in them, and drink in smoky bars–but not that he’s sooo talented and genius. I haven’t seen it in his work. Just because his cousin’s talented, or his family’s talented doesn’t mean he is at the same level as they are.
@ VC: I am with you on this one. I cannot believe people call Justin intelligent etc. I have read his interviews and they are nothing special in them to say that here we have an intelligent man. All I get from him is that is obnoxious, condescending, arrogant know it all type of man.
And yes I haven’t seen his so called genius in his work either. If he is that clever and talented then he would have been famous and made it on his own instead of being bought by Jennifer and her agent.
But by being associated with Jennifer hasn’t really helped him at all – yes he got the new TV show but that’s all. These days people are calling him vain, opportunist, gold digger, fame hungry etc – he is losing his credibility day by day.
hahahahaha Lol, I’d love it if it were true after all the kissing ass Aniston does to Handler. Theroux is a cheating douchebag, Handler is a homewrecker and Aniston a serial homewrecker. Poetic justice! 🙂 All 3 deserve each other.
Oh please, this poor woman couldn’t look edgy if she tried; and actually I don’t think she’s trying. She wouldn’t make herself over for any man; she’d try to make him over to suit her. I believe she tried this with Justin Theroux and he’s decided he’s tired of being her kept man any more. Either that, or he’s milked the relationship for all he can get out of it and decided it’s hit diminishing returns. It’s kind of sad, though, that at the age of 44 she still hasn’t learned that a relationship based on looks is bound to fail eventually, and she has nothing else to hold a man’s interest.
I would LOVE to see her go full-out Lisbeth Salander. Do it!
The only thing edgy about this one is the angle of her chinny-chin-chin.
““Jen cuts up some of her expensive clothes and puts them in the recycling bin because she doesn’t want them to end up on EBay,” the source added.”
I don’t see how this can be accurate. Couldn’t she just donate the clothes anonymously? As other people have noted, it’s not like she’s some sort of amazing fashion icon or something. There’s nothing distinctive about her look that would identify a garment as being worn by her, unless you count that Real Housewives style….
There are a hundred ways she could donate clothes anonymously. She could just bag them and have her agent or someone drop them off at Goodwill.
Exactly. There are a hundred ways she could donate the clothes and that’s why this story is utter BS. Why would anyone believe that she would cut up her clothes?
yeah.. sorry… no. Just… no.
All I know about her is that she is basically a warm person that adapts WAY too much to please whatever man (and her choices seem sometimes…well not the best for her) she is with and that they end up hurting her in the end. I mean, sure you want to please your man of course but there is a limit. It’s not just the haircut part that bothers me, is really that big a deal to me, but that she just generally seems so unhappy with this guy and seems like he just isn’t worth it! Just speculating about him, who knows, but not liking him for some reason and she really does deserve better. All of us woman have been in that situation – there’s a fine line between wanting to please him (and even spoil him 🙂 which I think is lovely IF he appreciates it and does the same for you….but there are some very odd men out there that really derive a sick kind of pleasure in the control aspect. And men who tend to be overly interested in details of your appearance (which even if beautiful, maybe even more so then) tend to be just wanting a trophy on their arm to flaunt. And what starts as minor things like your looks can slip easily into more dangerous and hurtful mind games. I hate when women will do everything from implants to nearly lobotimize themselves for a man – it seems to be happening a lot lately. Why are women so desperate – I don’t get it? I’m pretty old school and all about pleasing your man if he is the one for you, but our culture now….there are women in power now and yet women have been reduced to using such overt sexualization to appeal to these losers…even doing it at work, or because just desperate they won’t appear worthy without a guy…? It’s degrading. And Jen tends to do this, and, like most of us, is too good for it – sad. I know she is having other probs now (especially with her agent over certain issues and she is a bit of a workaholic, and family issues so maybe it really doesn’t have a thing to do Justin at all. Even though she doesn’t like Paltrow (join the club 🙂 if this story is true, it means she is acting like the GOOPoop (part of Jen’s probs I mentioned) , trying to look edgy and hip to keep Chris (hah) getting all the work done (but at least laser, thermage, sculptra etc.) which is working on looks – not marriage 🙂 But Gwyneth is still plain plus a b word to other women, and Jen is supportive of oher women, yet insecure about herself. Jen, either be yourself and if that isn’t good enough for your commitment phobe dude…think it’s time to dump him!!!
Who are you talking about?
Jen has never adapted to please whatever guy she is/was with. If that was true she would be living in NY right now.
Jen is a creature of habit that’s why she goes on the same vacations and stays at the same places? She expects all the guys she dates to adapt to her life style with no compromise which is one of the reasons why her relationships don’t work out, a lot of her ex’s have all hinted to that.
Uh the problem is Aniston DOESN’T adapt for other men. She is selfish and never compromises, its always the men that compromise. THATS the problem.
Edgy? Start doing porn Jennifer. Please. That’s what I’ve been waiting for her to do.
I love Jen and always have. I don’t know why. But at the same time, I can see how she might drive guys away with the sort of neediness that manifests as a constant need to control. I sure hope that Justin isn’t a d-bag; but if he is, maybe she can find a guy who’s into her and not what she can do for him.
Is a guy a d-bag just because he doesn’t want to spend his life with what you just said about her “neediness that manifests as a constant need to control”? Personally, if he treated her badly then he’s a d-bag, but just to decide that she’s not what he wants to deal with for a lifetime shouldn’t make him a d-bag. Sounds like he’s lucky to have escaped her control. You go, Justin.
I feel sorry for her because it has to be hard to meet men and trust that they want you for yourself, and not for what you bring to the table–money and fame. I think she should look for a wealthy man who isn’t an actor. (I’m assuming she has a vast fortune. Didn’t she take half of Brad Pitt’s money when they divorced?)
Nope–neither of them took anything from each other, even though I believe they didn’t have a prenup. I think there was a minor quibble with the house that they both owned–I think Jennifer got it (and gutted it, and then remade it completely and then sold it), and Brad got all the shares in Plan B–something like that.
Jennifer has a ton of money because after ‘Friends’ ended, she and her cast members got something like 16.3 (or 13.3, something like that) million dollars a year for five years (I believe)–‘Friends’ ended in 2005 (she taped the last episode just before they separated/filed for divorce)—I remember this because we were discussing about a year ago, her SmartWater Ads. Someone mentioned that she has to supplement her income, because she isn’t getting those ‘Friends’ checks anymore.
And Justin is a total dbag–he’s like Eddie Cibrian–he lets the women do all the fighting, and he doesn’t say a thing. Remember when Jennifer was running to PEOPLE, saying she’d never date a guy with a girlfriend, once those rumors of them being more than buddies started up? Remember Heidi’s mom running to Radaronline, saying that she heard from Justin’s own mouth that he and Jennifer were just friends and business partners? YEAH. Justin’s smart. He ain’t sayin’ a word.
But Jennifer isn’t changing for no one–if she was, she’d be in NY right now in a condo sipping a margarita.
Are you sure about the money thing between Aniston and Pitt? Because I remember at the time, and I just did a minor search (sorry didn’t get links), but I found they’d split they’re assets. (Meaning he had hugely more money going into their marriage than she did.). She got the house and he got some shares or something.
Oh, I think she made out like a bandit, and he paid through the nose to get out of the marriage. But I’ve read your posts, and I know you’re pretty good at this research.
@Vee, who wrote: Are you sure about the money thing between Aniston and Pitt? Because I remember at the time, and I just did a minor search (sorry didn’t get links), but I found they’d split they’re assets.”
Vee, the Aniston-Pitts had a ‘no contested’ divorce. They didn’t have any kids. They split their ‘joint’ assets (Jen got their $24 million dollar mansion that she later renovated and then sold, and Brad got their house in Malibu), but the only thing Pitt gave her money for, outside of their joint asset split, was her share of Pan B.
Justin cheated on Heidi Bivens with Aniston, and Aniston knew it, so of course Justin is a douchebag, he is a cheater after all. And Aniston is a homewrecker so she is no better than him. Aniston gets what she deserves for being a homewrecker and stealing another woman’s man.
she’s about as edgy as her milquetoast (ex-) boyfriend
Well off to find a saftey pin & potatoe so I can re-pierce all the holes I let close up after the 90’s. Gotta be cool like Jen
I am still team Heidi no matter how this plays out & I think we all know it’s played out. Heidi has that cool edge about her that Jen can’t capture because like someone up thread said you have it or don’t. Justin & Heidi as a couple had it. They weren’t mainstream hollyweird people they were NYers doing their thing & Heidi is still doing her thing behind the scene.
I think this “affair” ran its course & it’s over & done. Jens sudden selfies are a sad attempt to stay busy & have fun (be cool) because she got told hey babe this just ain’t working out.
Agreed Aniston should have known that how you get em is how you lose em. Homewreckers never prosper. Karma sees to that.
Here’s what I don’t understand. Jennifer hasn’t really been seen much in months, has no movies coming up and yet the tabloids and gossip sites are posting like crazy – go figure? Whey does everyone care so much?
Sue the problem is it wouldn’t have been a big deal. Look at the other women that got a hair cut. Jennifer is the one that has made this some news story. There are 3 or so different stories. She put out some instagrams pic as teasers. She gave a couple of interviews say she had a bad reaction, she saw a cut she liked and wanted a change; she wants to be edgy.
her fans are right.. it was just a haircut. So why didn’t she just treat it that way. Why all the stories about it.
Good point; she hasn’t been seen in months, has no movies coming up – yet the tabloids are constantly full of ridiculously inane stories about her. She and her Huvane driven PR team are the reason. And our commenting has nothing to do with “caring.” When a middle-aged woman has her publicist plant story after story about her hair woes, piercings – well any well adjusted adult would read that stuff and be irritated to no end. This woman has the emotional maturity of a high school cheerleader – thank God she doesn’t have children! She needs to spray paint every mirror she owns and think about something else besides herself. This story is BS, but that isn’t the point; the point was to keep her in the public eye, as Huvane ssslllooowwwlllyyy leads us to the announcement of her latest break up.

Only Jen and her PR Team could have know what time she’d show up at the Day Spa, right? And there she was, hair behind her left ear so we’d all see the new cartilage earring she sent us the ‘Selfie’ of, wearing her new ‘Forever 16’ clothes.
Only Jen could have posted those ‘Selfies,’ right? How else would we ‘see’ a Selfie unless the person posts their Selfie. I mean, that is the very nature of a Selfie.
If Jennifer Aniston didn’t want us talking about her, she wouldn’t put herself out there for us to see and discuss.
Her time is over and has actually been over for a long time, for some reason she has been able to continue to get work in movies that bomb one after another, it’s time for hollywood to let the new upcoming talent in and put some of these ppl to rest… They have enough money with less talent …
Virgilia Coriolanus and Dorothy why the looooooong posts? And why oh why is Brad still mentioned in Jennifer posts? That was like years ago. And virgo – problem is her last movie was a huge hit for the price it cost to make it. So – expect to see her around for awhile longer. Sorry.
If you read my posts, you’d see why I mention the JPs at all.
Because of Aniston’s lack of a decent acting range, she’s relegated to low-brow, toilet humor ensembles and rom-coms. That’s the work she gets because that’s all she can do. Not quite sure what it is about her acting, but every role is the same in my opinion. It’s like she’s phoning it in. I don’t know if it’s laziness or if she’s just not that talented, but I seriously doubt Aniston will be around much longer as she’s aging out of the only film genre she’s had successes in. She can’t green light a film or open a movie on her name alone (both of which are the definition of A-list), she can’t carry a film and she can’t go beyond her “Rachel Green-isms” in her performances, so that doesn’t leave her with many acting options and she’s closing in on 45. Hence the reason she’s embracing this lifestyle living stuff (Living Proof, Smartwater, Aveeno). She needs an exit strategy from her diminishing movie career. The door is closing. My guess is she’s grabbing every offer that comes her way right now, because the well is running dry.
I agree TC, I also feel that this relationship was doomed from the start, if he did not marry Heidi after 14 years , what in the world made her believe he would do the right thing in this situation???? And Heidi isn’t the brightest for staying with a man for 14 years and than he leaves her at the drop of a dime for Jennifer… I don’t see his appeal at all?? Anyone????
maybe Heidi didn’t want marriage.
