Jennifer Aniston on her future: ‘I see the ocean, I hear laughter, I see kids running’

Oscars 2020 Arrivals

Jennifer Aniston covers the latest issue of Interview Magazine and woo, what a cover image they chose. Legs akimbo, half-balanced on a table, head tilted and touching her hair. It’s halfway “classic Aniston cover” and halfway the pose of a doll thrown against a wall. Anyway, Jennifer’s interview was conducted by none other than Sandra Bullock. I figured they were old friends considering they run in the same extended group of people, but I totally forgot that they dated the same dude in the ‘90s: Tate Donovan. Remember him? He was hot stuff back then! First he dated Sandy, then a few years later, he dated Aniston. Apparently, Tate introduced them and they quickly became friendly, which they talk about in this piece. You can read the full Interview piece here. Some highlights:

Aniston on how she creates joy & positivity: “First of all, that was the sweetest thing anyone has ever said to me. I think that it comes from growing up in a household that was destabilized and felt unsafe, watching adults being unkind to each other, and witnessing certain things about human behavior that made me think: “I don’t want to do that. I don’t want to be that. I don’t want to experience this feeling I’m having in my body right now. I don’t want anyone else that I ever come in contact with ever to feel that.” So I guess I have my parents to thank. You can either be angry or be a martyr, or you can say, “You’ve got lemons? Let’s make lemonade.”

A new conversation about women supporting women: “Like you said, this conversation of women supporting women is new, but I think we have been doing it for a long time. When I landed in Los Angeles at 20 years old and I fell into those girls who are still sitting around the table today, they were on a different path. I’d never had a circle of women who got together and talked forever… But I really think it was something that saved me. This is a really tough business that we’re in that is not always kind or inclusive or supportive. A lot of the time, it’s the opposite. I remember going to auditions and girls would never want to share anything. Or they would talk to you during your auditions to distract you when they knew you were trying to work on your stuff.

Still creating art past 40: “We create that. Our industry has expanded its horizons in that way, and I think it’s because women have stood up and said, “We’re mad as hell, and we’re not going to take it anymore.”… Think of the generation ahead of us. So many of those women were put out to pasture when they were 40, and the fact that we get to still be working and are actually coming into our most creative adventures ever at this point in our life—we’re rewriting that narrative that society sort of plastered on us. I remember the messaging to me even in my 30s was, “Don’t play a mom, and if you do play a mom make sure it’s to a 3-year-old kid.”

What brings her down: “Turning on the television, listening to the news, reading the paper—that can make me really sad and really angry. The division that’s been taking place. The complete chaos that’s existing. When people show greed and bad behavior and a lack of gratitude. It’s so hard to put this in an eloquent way. When you see people behaving badly and hurting other people, that makes me very angry. And abuse of animals, obviously.

Her goals for the future: “My gut reaction was to say all of the above. It’s not so much what I see myself doing, but it’s more like a little screenshot in my brain, where I hear the ocean, I see the ocean, I hear laughter, I see kids running, I hear ice in a glass, I smell food being cooked. That’s the joyous snapshot in my head.

[From Interview]

“I hear laughter, I see kids running…” It never changes, does it? Today she’s alluding to the image she has for herself with kids running around, but tomorrow she’ll write another HuffPo piece about how dare we suggest that she wants kids and get out of her uterus. At this point, I’m perfectly fine with getting out of her uterus, if only she would stop baiting her fanbase with the promise of “babies, at some point!” I’ve already seen the headlines about “Jen talks about wanting children, just after she was seen with Brad!” Jesus, fix it.

    Maybe she’s referring to a man who already has children?
    Lainey always uses the term “gossip genie” to wish two stars get together…… mine is for her and Bill Hader. I think that would be so cute. I know he’s with the OC girl right now, but that’s why it’s gossip genie lol.

    • (TheOG)jan90067 says:

      It doesn’t necessarily refer to HER kids (or a partner’s); perhaps she means looking down on the beach from her deck and seeing OTHER PEOPLE’S kids, or you know, friends’ kids, playing in the sand. Not everything is literal people lol

      Also, she’s not “perching akimbo” on the desk, she’s playing air guitar.

      • M.A.F. says:

        @(TheOG)jan90067 – that was my first thought. She’s just hearing other peoples kids while out & about.

      • doofus says:

        “she playing air guitar”

        *DEAD*

        bravo, that was FUNNY.

      • Ainsley7 says:

        I think she’d like to be an aunt to her friend’s kids. I don’t think she wants the full time job of mom, but thinks being like Aunt Jen is her ideal. All the fun and none of the work.

      • lucy2 says:

        Yeah I took it as the kids of friends and family (I believe she maybe has nieces/nephews?). A lot of her friends have kids, I assume they all spend a lot of time together.

      • Eleonor says:

        I thought this too.
        On the beach there are KIDS running everywhere, I don’t see her uterus.

    • Ringrosie says:

      I often wonder if she considered adoption at one point, then didn’t because of the obvious Jolie comparisons ect that would of happened

      Or whatever her reason I would enjoy hearing about it. So many women these days have infertility (if that’s her sit) or choose not to have kids. So many reasons people don’t have kids and I relate to those stories very much.
      I get she wants to be private and that’s her choice…but she had to know those comment could and likely would be twisted

    • Anne says:

      I generally don’t like to comment BUT it surprises me that you have this traditional view about babies. You don’t have to be a mother to love seeing kids laughing and running around. I think this site perpetuates the stereotype. It’s like when you guys were wondering why Mindy Kaling was mum about her child’s father. Perhaps it was a sperm donor. Please be more sensitive.

  2. DS9 says:

    She doesn’t want kids lolol.

    Why does she keep saying this?

    • crogirl says:

      Because she is giving her fan base what they want to hear.

      It would be so refreshing to hear her say what she really wants.

    • notasugarhere says:

      If she meant to allude to her kids friends, she would have said that. This is another does-she-doesn’t-she deliberately baity interview. Classic Aniston.

    • LucyD says:

      One doesn’t have to want their own kids to have kids in their lives and enjoy them. Maybe she has kids in her life that she loves and enjoys already. Shrugs.

    • DarlingDiana says:

      I don’t think she wants kids at 51. I don’t think she is saying that she does either. The “snapshot” in her head sounds a lot like her being surrounded by things and people that she loves including kids (just not hers). Semi-retirement at her beach house sounds idyllic. I’m sure that she isn’t retiring soon and that is why she describes this like she does.
      A lot of regular women are becoming grandmothers at her age. They “see” kids in their lives too but in a more distant, spoil them and send them home way. Heck, some her friends kids are likely starting their own families now. Babies can bring happiness wherever they babble. The giggles of small children sound like hope to me.

  3. I'm that person says:

    Well, it don’t need to be HER children running around…

    And wow, that cover is BAD! Looks like they photoshopped her head on some body. Just me?

    • Elle says:

      I think her legs look great. I’m doing plies as I type this reply. It’s a weird cover but she looks fit.

      • Snowslow says:

        I hope you’re adding some photoshop to your pliés! 😉

      • naompaige99 says:

        Sure, after being photoshopped like a gazillion times, of course they’re going to look great!

      • doofus says:

        I have no doubt that they photoshopped wrinkles, etc out.

        but she has great legs even without photoshop.

        just do a google image search of “aniston legs” and you’ll see plenty of pictures where they’re not ‘shopped. she works hard for her physique.

    • Laura says:

      Sure, her legs look great, but what an awkward cover!! Her facial expression seems bored/annoyed, the jackets and boots seem to overpower her & it’s all I can do to not stare directly at her crotch, which is just weird!

      Not a fan of that magazine cover at all.

    • Granger says:

      Her legs/body are amazing but I’m with Laura, her face looks bizarre on this cover.

  4. Originaltessa says:

    If it’s what she really wants, I hope she finds a way to make it happen. I imagine she froze some eggs at some point in time. Or, better, adopt a kid that needs a good home. But, Jen, if you don’t want kids? Just say so! No one cares at this point. You’re 50! I think the gig is up.

  5. Hmmm says:

    Hmmm maybe he’s talking about her friends kids. Sounds like she’s imagining a barbecue. Lmao she’s lame.

  6. Babadook says:

    She looks like she’s about to whip and/or nae nae.

  7. Eliza_ says:

    She never said they are her kids laughing. I mean I really do think she’s happy as she is. Being surrounded by friends and their families, the cool “Aunt” who gets to play but not discipline, with her bottomless margarita on the rocks in front of a bonfire on the beach.

    • Snowslow says:

      She’s Jane Fonda’s character in Frankie & Grace for sure but slightly less stiff and bitter.

    • doofus says:

      yeah, this.

      I don’t have kids, don’t want kids…but I will tell you that sitting on the beach, smelling the salt air, feeling the sun on my skin and YES, HEARING KIDS LAUGHING is all part of a wonderful day at the beach. (oh, add the grill and the margarita, too.) I love my nieces and nephews and my friends’ kids and love having them around.

      and PS those boots are HOT.

    • Becks1 says:

      Agreed. I don’t get the vitriol aimed at Jen on here sometimes. I thought it was pretty clear she was just describing an ideal day at a beach/beach house.

      • CAVandy says:

        @becks1 you’re right the vitriol here is palpable

        I mean, who tf cares that she never legally married the guy that left her 2 years later? That’s Oprah-level smart if you ask me.

        for the record she looks amazing in all these pics and I know it takes a lot of work, more than what I’m doing sitting on my a** typing comments on a blog lol!

    • shells_bells says:

      So much this… I don’t have children but would probably describe a trip to the beach very similarly. We have nieces, nephews and friends kids that are ALWAYS around, like every weekend. Just because she doesn’t have children of her own it doesn’t mean that she doesn’t enjoy having them around.

    • McMom says:

      I totally agree – cut her some slack. Sounds like she knows how to throw a fun, family-friendly party on the beach. Wanting to create an environment where there are kids (but not necessarily HER kids) isn’t disingenuous – it just speaks to the kind of atmosphere she wants around her.

    • K says:

      Having kids around occasionally to laugh with and share a different perspective (like your friends’ kids or nieces and nephews, etc.) but NOT having to experience possible fertility issues, pregnancy, the immense stress, cost and responsibility of full-time parenthood — this is the dream for some people, and I’m one of them. I like kids and I’m great with them, but have never felt the urge to procreate. Thankfully, people don’t ask me constantly about it, but if it comes up I simply say I don’t want kids of my own, but love being a “cool aunt” and big sister.

      I get how she might feel like that too. The difference is Jennifer sits on the fence and never 100% commits to a statement because she’s a people pleaser and afraid of changing the image formula that made her rich and famous. She’s so f-ing predictable. She could have tried surrogacy or adopted plenty of kids by now if she wanted to make it happen. Maybe when she hits 70 she’ll admit the mom thing isn’t going to happen (duh), though I wish she’d just say it now and move on.

  8. Snowslow says:

    Can’t believe I’m ‘defending’ an actress but in fairness, the kids may be her friend’s. She’s always holidaying with couples she is friendly with and most of her friends are parents and will be grand-parents at some point.
    She doesn’t say anything groundbreaking but her heart is in a good place. She is no activist but not all of us have to be.

    That cover on the other hand… I cannot defend… Jaysus baysus!! It’s… hilarious…

  9. Lenn says:

    This is kind of mean. What if she wants kids but for some reason it is not happening? Just because she doesn’t want you looking in her uterus, doesn’t mean she doesn’t want them or isn’t allowed to dream of them.

    • ADS says:

      I agree. This stuff can be very complicated.

    • Dali says:

      Could be true but IF she had issues with getting pregnant, im pretty sure we would know it, because more pity for her, more sad Interviews. She has enough friends to leak if she wanted. I mean she wasn’t shy when talking about her private pain back then for sympathy. Let’s be real, Without her personal drama, she would be where Courteney Cox is today. She had so many bad movies, nobody else would have survived that in this business. But here she is, celebrated like shes a huge a list movie star when she never was.

      • Original T.C. says:

        “Let’s be real, Without her personal drama, she would be where Courteney Cox is today. She had so many bad movies, nobody else would have survived that in this business. “

        THIS!
        Brad Pitt divorcing her for Angie was the best thing that happened to Jennifer Aniston’s career. Sandra divorced a Nazi and didn’t go on a poor me campaign. Reese Witherspoon divorced a famous cheating spouse but went out of her way not to be seen as a victim/ poor Reese. She pushed ahead, made successful movies, became a producer and I can’t recall her ex-husband being mentioned in anything about her life or career in at least a decade.

        Jennifer Aniston on the other hand became an opportunist and a professional victim living off her infamy of being dumped by Brad Pitt. I still don’t understand why women, especially feminists, have respect for her!

        P.S.
        I think this pic is supposed to be a redo of the famous topless magazine cover with her wearing only a tie.

      • Ramy says:

        Very well said . Playing the victim is the most important role she has done in her life

      • I want to like Aniston, but I don’t. I think her sustained career is built on being a master at PR not talent. She always reminds me of a swan — appearing perfect and graceful and serene yet paddling like mad underneath and never owning it. It’s the not owning it I find so false. I think she really plays up victimhood, she mean girled Angelina but refused to own it, and I think she’s actually terrified of loosing control of her body. I get that Brad and Angelina hurt her, I get that she felt a great loss and had reasons to strongly dislike Angelina, but Aniston dragged that ‘bitch stole my man’ song on for years and years in public. She also goes on in every single interview about loving who you are at whatever age you are. She looks good, but I see her trying to look exactly the same 20 or even 30 years from now. Age catches all of us, yet she never changes — not even her hairstyle —- and I would bet she spends at least $100,000 a year and an enormous amount of time staying the same. I think she is terrified of loosing control; which to me keeps her from being a good actor. I might like her more if she could admit to any of this but she gives good interviews while saying nothing. She has a lot of women friends who love her and are devoted to her so I get that she’s probably a great and caring friend in her private life. I guess I just grew tired of perfect ‘ Public’ Jen years ago always singing me, me, me, me. Whenever, she comes to my attention I know I’m going to be bored, bored, bored.

    • K-Peace says:

      ^This exactly. I remember back when she & Brad had just split, in a magazine article (“Us” or something) that was talking about how one of the reasons why they split was because Brad wanted kids so badly but Jen hadn’t “provided” any (BARF!), there was a quote from one of Jen’s family members (i think a brother?). He said something to the effect of that the reason why she hadn’t had babies was very complicated and that there was a LOT that she had gone through, trying to have a baby, that the public didn’t know about. It seemed to me to be alluding to her having miscarriages. I’ve never forgotten that. (And always thought it was odd that that tidbit never gets brought up in articles about Jen/her split with Brad.)

      • Smalltown Girl says:

        Same. I also remember an old blind that alleged she’d had trouble conceiving Becuase of the methods she was using to stay thin and that had caused tension in her marriage.

    • Lizzie says:

      If she wanted kids she would have them. IDK if she wants them or not but she gets a lot of mileage out of causing speculation.

  10. kgeo says:

    I have a childless-by-choice friend, but she’s very much a part of our family and will have many children running around now and in her future. I don’t get why this is so hard to understand. My kids love her, and she’s able to be there for them because she doesn’t have children. I’m not super aware of Jennifer’s relationship with her friend’s kids, but I don’t read this as her wanting to have children.

    • Ariela says:

      Childless by choice is child free. Childless implies she is missing out on something, but this is her choice, so she is not lacking children but free of children.

    • doofus says:

      you can see the way she interacts with the kids in the St. Jude videos that she does like kids and enjoys interacting with them. she just doesn’t want her own.

      I recently read an article about “what people wish they knew before they have kids” and one of the things mentioned was “know how independent/selfish/lazy you are with your time.”

      I fully recognize that I AM independent/selfish/lazy with my time. when I come home from work, I want to chill, have a cocktail and watch some TV before I make dinner. I want to be able to do WHATEVER on the weekend, hop a train to NYC, hit the beach, go to a concert…without having to worry about making arrangements for someone to watch my kids. I want my time to be MY time, and when you have kids, esp when they’re little, your time is NEVER your own. your life now belongs to your kids, at least until they’re old enough to “fend” for themselves. too many people don’t recognize this, and have kids and they neglect them or fail to adequately guide and/or supervise them.

      THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH NOT WANTING KIDS. I think Aniston is in the same group as me….she likes kids OK and enjoys having them around IN LIMITED DOSES, but doesn’t want her own, full time 24/7.

    • Algernon says:

      It’s hard to understand because she has made a habit of playing into typical expectations that one day she’ll settle down and have children. She’s done this for decades, it’s not new. Even if she does mean hearing other people’s kids running around, given her track record of baiting baby speculation, it’s impossible not to see this as another tease to her middle American fan base that just wants their tv princess to settle down and procreate.

  11. Say what says:

    Jesus fix it again and why is she wearing a replica(just a different color) of the same gd swimsuit Angelina wore in her last photo shoot. I mean at some point we need to discuss her insane obsession with the current ex Mrs Pitt.
    She alludes to the kids because she ant spells to think she is having some fantasized relationship with Brads kids. Y’all can’t be that stupid. Well I digress, maybe. She is playing PR games again so people can run with a story about just that.

    • Ariela says:

      Erm… what?

      • doofus says:

        hahahahaha…my reaction exactly. and what swimsuit? I looked at the full interview page with pics and I don’t even see a swimsuit? I see a pink bra top, and I see some super short “boyshorts”, but no bathing suit.

        and when was the last time Jolie wore a bathing suit in a photo shoot?

      • DarlingDiana says:

        Meant to post to Say What:

        You are viewing this through a distorted lens. See, Jen is talking about herself with a friend. It is accompanied by a photoshoot. That is all.
        Jolie doesn’t have a part in any of this at all. I don’t know why you are trying to attach her here. I mean if you are a Jolie fan, which is great, you likely think about her more than a typical reader. She isn’t on the mind of Aniston or other readers though. There is zero reason for her to be.
        Whenever Eternal promo kicks in, you will see Jolie everywhere. Just wait and your fave will be the topic of conversation.

      • Leah says:

        Fantasizing playing with The Jolie-Pitt kids?
        Lol!
        This cannot be for real.

    • M.A.F. says:

      Yes because only Jolie can wearing faux leather & have photo shoots like this.

    • whatWHAT? says:

      just FYI, those pictures in the tweet are not recent. the Aniston one (in the black bathing suit) is from the June issue of Bazaar and the one of Jolie (in the red suit) is from December issue of Bazaar.

      I think it’s very likely that the magazine and/or stylist chose that suit and that neither woman knew the other wore it. but, to your point, Aniston wore it (or, rather, was styled in it) first.

    • Leah says:

      At some point?lol!
      Haven’t you been irrationally obsessing over it for a decade?
      Like the other poster said when the hell does angie even where a swimsuit?
      People be losing they minds..
      It’s hilarious how basic Aniston Always has everybody pressed..
      She obviously is doing something right.

  12. Ravensdaughter says:

    She looks fantastic, although the pose is completely unflattering…
    If she wants kids now, she’d better hurry on up, if she hasn’t hit menopause already. No kids without extensive scientific intervention. The only reason I say that so bluntly is I’m past menopause and menopause is not fun. As a woman, It is a strange feeling, having spent most of my adult life using birth control and having periods to just…stop. That’s what it felt/feels like for me and that’s something like what she will-or is-experiencing, too. (I didn’t have hot flashes-I hear that’s even worse)…
    Plus, raising kids past 40 is absolutely brutal! I was close to forty with two strong boys and it almost killed me!

    • josephine says:

      She looks bizarre. There was no need to photoshop her to hell and back and to pick a photo in which she is posed so awkwardly. She looks good just how she is and this photo is awful.

  13. janet says:

    Did she say the kids were hers or she wants kids? The screenshot she speak of describes exactly how she holidays, with friends and their kids, and cocktails by the beach while someone else cooks. And the beach with friends has always been Aniston’s happy place.

    • Ravensdaughter says:

      That’s more like it. She’s a good friend if she’ll go on holidays with other people’s kids!

  14. Sarah says:

    She is bland to the point of being fascinating.
    She says a lot of stuff without saying anything. She cares about yoga, and the beach, and her hair.
    That interview was conducted in 2020, but it could have been 2010, could have been 2000 as well, when she was just started her married life with Brad but was already playing the will-she-won’t-she have kids game.
    Her media strategy has been interesting. A few months ago, after her ‘divorce’ from Too Cool for School Theroux, she was mostly about the work. Her TV show with Reese, producing, being single and child-free by choice (see her Huff Post op-ed).
    But in the last few months, there has been a notable shift around her narrative. Is she getting back with Brad? Is she finally pregnant? I feel like I’m in 2009 all over again. It’s crazy, and a bit sad for her I think. She just won a SAG award after all, her first major acting award in a long time.
    I cannot think of many celebrities who are so stuck in the past as this one. I get that’s part of the appeal? But I really do not get it.

    • kerwood says:

      @Sarah, she’s stuck in the past because her fan base is stuck in the past. Look at how crazy people got when she was photographed with Pitt. Aniston knows exactly where her money is coming from and she’ll keep those people on the string as long as she’s able.

    • Mireille says:

      Yes, I think the key here in this interview is “strategy.” Huvane will be lining up more interviews to come because they’re eyeing that Emmy in the Fall (hey why not start early?). The pic on the cover … especially the expression on her face … is hilarious.

  15. Soupie says:

    Ambiguous and vague. Could mean anything.

  16. Valiantly Varnished says:

    This chick is still playing at this narrative at 50?? Girl, bye.

  17. Sarah says:

    Back in 2010, i naively though she could not play the kids baiting game for long. But here we are, a decade later, with the same chicanery. She’ll be doing that nonsense in the 60s, won’t she?

  18. Smalltown Girl says:

    My best friend is childless by choice but is heavily involved with me and my family. There are many beach days with children laughing n her life. I didn’t take it as Jen wants kids, but she just likes the idea of a happy world where children are laughing.

    • lucy2 says:

      Yes! I am child free, but I love my friends’ kids, and hope that my brother and SIL have kids in the future. My mom’s best friend was child free and was like a second mom to us. Families are made in all different ways.

  19. JoJo says:

    Next week’s In Touch Weekly “Jen is adopting two young siblings from Mexico, Brad is on board.” Lol

  20. Texas says:

    I adore her. Girl is just doing her thing.

  21. Other Renee says:

    Make all the excuses you want about what she really meant, but I totally agree with Kaiser. She knew exactly what she was doing. She knew that her very carefully chosen words would generate this exact conversation about her. And Brad.

    • Lady D says:

      After 25-30 years of being interviewed, she knew exactly what she was saying with that sentence. Still playing the game.

    • Sarah says:

      Exactly. Not that long ago, she was writing op-ed about being happily childfree and asking us to get out of her uterus. She wanted the focus to be on her work.
      Now, just as the ‘reunion’ buzz is picking up stream, she’s back to baby-baiting us. She’s been a household name for two decades, much to my dismay, so she knows what she’s doing when it comes to pr.

    • Sidewithkids says:

      CAA coaches them very well.

    • Sidewithkids says:

      No substance still and in her 50s. Sad.

  22. MellyMel says:

    She didn’t say her kids. Most of her friends, that we know of, have children. It honestly sounds like she’s talking about being at the beach in Mexico with her people.

    • ranny says:

      You are right, she had the photoshoot way back Early december, you can see her wearing the black gown in her IG. So the interview was done before the new year and she had already plans of going to Mexico for new year’s eve with her friends, some of whom like Kimmel and Bateman have young kids.

  23. Michelle says:

    Sorry but i never understood the hype this woman gets. She’s as deep as a puddle. What is the point of this interview? She’s not promoting anything.

    • kerwood says:

      @Michelle, there are MUCH deeper puddles.

    • minx says:

      I don’t get it either.

      Let’s not insult puddles like that.

      I’m with you. I never got her appeal.

      Hear, hear!

    • ranny says:

      She is a narcissist to the max, more than anyone in HW, she is likes being objectified and being in the limelight always, but she is good in hiding it by portraying herself as this relatable humble girl next door america’s sweetheart type. Deep inside, she also wants to be seen as this goddess type HW superstar. She protested too much when people body shamed her when came out in fat and preggy looking bikini photos of her. She also complained that she is not the ‘go to’ actress for most of the coveted roles in HW. Aniston always feels entitled but to me she is really just mediocre in looks and talent. She was lucky to have landed a role in Friends and was ex Mrs Brad Pitt, those 2 things catalputed her to her popularity.

        Why do I get the idea that all of these posters saying the same thing are all the same poster using different names?
        Lol it’s always the same names and the same comments that sound suspiciously the same all the time?
        Hmmm..

      • whatWHAT? says:

        Leah, what always makes me scratch my head is that these people apparently think she’s boring, shallow, they hate her, etc.

        but yet her comments surpass the 100 mark, filled with people announcing for the 100th time how boring she is. like, EVERY time they comment to say how boring she is, and drive the comments up. the more comments, the more posts about a person because clicks = ad revenue. if she’s boring or you hate her, why comment? I can’t stand the K family and I rarely comment on their posts. the other thing is that they all seem to have done a deep psychological analysis of her actions for the past 20 years…I mean, look at the comment you responded to. they hate her, yet they analyze her to death?

    • Savannah says:

      Hundreds of actors do magazine interviews and photoshoots when they aren’t promoting anything.
      I’m not a huge fan of Jennifer’s acting usually,
      But she was actually fantastic on The morning show and Just won a SAG.
      I would would hardly say she hasn’t done anything or isn’t promoting anything.

  24. Algernon says:

    At this rate, she’s going to be 90 and still teasing having children someday.

  25. YaGotMe says:

    She looks fabulous and I am jealous as hell ( same age without the discipline she clearly has) but damn, the second hand thirst I got from that cover has me parched.

  26. Mabs A'Mabbin says:

    She looks exactly like she was hurled at a wall, and that’s how she landed. Face and legs askew. She’s as cool as her ex. Everybody in unison: rolling eyes.

  27. Riley says:

    That was such a click bait statement! If she doesn’t want people speculating about her uterus, which is non functional, at this point, she shouldn’t be making statements like that. Everyone loves seeing kids having fun at the beach. She knows exactly what she’s doing. UGH!

  28. Mrs. Peel says:

    I hear laughter, I see kids running, I take a vicodin.

  29. qtpi says:

    So dumb. She can’t stand kids. My friend personally knows a guy whose kid(s) were in a movie with her. I know which movie but I’ll keep it to myself.

    She was not kind AT ALL to the kids. In fact she was down right rude. The Dad was blown away by what a crank she was when that is not how she is portrayed anywhere. I used to know specific details of what happened but it’s been 10 years or more since this happened.

    She’s never ever ever… having kids.

  30. JK says:

    I think she’s playing air guitar. . . .

  31. Wilmarama says:

    I’ve heard that after Justin and Jennifer where enganged they also did IVF and tried for a baby. They got pregnant but she lost it. And they could have any after that so they stopped after some time because it was stressfull.
    She was apparently seen in a fertility clinic but everything was super hush hush.

    I’ve always felt she’s gotten a little defensive when there’s been talk about her not having babies and maybe it’s a defense mechanism. And maybe she came to terms with not having children after trying and realising it would be difficult.

    Idk

  32. jules says:

    she wins for most awkward pose ever.

    • MagicSerum says:

      The photographers/stylists do this stuff deliberately to make the shots go viral in the age of incessant content. The weirder the better because you take a second look.

  33. naompaige99 says:

    That magazine pic was horribly photoshopped. Personally, I don’t feel like she can pull off that kind of look. It isn’t here! Too Try hard!!!!!!!!

    I’m sorry but to me, she just comes off as desperate and pathetic in her comments. She’s screaming out…. everybody look at me, look at me!!!!!

    I’m completely bored with her shtick already.

    • Carmen says:

      I was bored with her schtick ten years ago. Can she be any more vapid? She gives me the impression that you could make her eyes twinkle by shining a light in her ears.

    • Gabby says:

      Desperate and pathetic? Wow, your life must be amazing, I’d love to have her “desperate and pathetic” life!

    • Aubrey. says:

      Speaking of sounding desperate and pathetic lol…

  34. Sass says:

    Lord Jesus fix it!

  35. Lisa says:

    If she wanted kids of her own she would have made it happen with or without a partner. I wish she would stop the clickbait than get upset when people wish it for her.

  36. Loca says:

    Loved the positive interview and the friendship between her and Sandra. Would love to see them in a movie together. Jennifer looks fantastic. Also to each their own if they want kids or not….if you are the one going to be raising them 24-7… it’s not up for debate. She has already accomplished alot in her life.

    • MagicSerum says:

      I’m not a fan of her but I think she’s underrated as an actor and I love how she stands for solidarity and friendship and actually LIVES it and demonstrates it in her life.

  37. MagicSerum says:

    I think she talks about her friends’ kids in this interview or in others. That’s what she’s referring to. She looks odd in these pics but crazy killer body. Her nose looks odd and so does her mouth area with the botox, I assume.

  38. Jana says:

    I can’t imagine having kids at 50…or even 40 for that matter. Babies are hard enough in your prime, but during and after menopause? No tank you!

    • Justwastingtime says:

      Perspective. Lots of woman have kids (first or fourth) at or near 40. I adopted my second near 40, best thing ever. My sister had her first (without medical intervention ) at 40, all good. 40 really isn’t menopause, at least in my circle of acquaintances and friends.

  39. khaveman says:

    In that shoot her eyes look faraway or “dead” in most of the photos – they only sparkle in one shot. It’s like she doesn’t want to do it. Her eyes are very weird.

  40. Calibration says:

    JA has stayed relevant all these years because of Brad /Angelina triangle and baby speculation in the tabs. She knows it.

    • Scollins says:

      Correct. It sure isn’t her stellar acting.

      • whatWHAT? says:

        yeah, that’s why she won a SAG award for her acting this year. and was nominated (and won a couple of times) all those Emmys and Golden Globes during her stint on one of the most successful comedies of all time. she stinks.

        (SAG award are voted on by SAG members…that is, her fellow actors apparently all think she’s pretty good.)

      • Aubrey. says:

        Well she did just win a Sag award lol.
        Once she gets away from those tedious ass rom coms she actually has her moments.
        She is probably doing her best work on The Morning show,
        She also won a emmy lol,
        But of course her detractors won’t acknowledge that.
        I’m not even a fan of her bad rom coms,
        But i give credit where credit is due.

    • Twist says:

      I’d say she managed the pr really well, kept all her friends and even exes as good friends, and ended up on top by working hard as well. Nothing to dislike about it. She was thrown into the “discarded woman” angle and the press wouldn’t stop the love triangle thing so what could she have done? I believe it was mostly reactive but she ended up benefitting from it overall, and it did keep her in the news. She never even mentioned Pitt in her interviews except for a few times. This PR thing should not detract from the fact she’s worked hard as an actor (very few hits except for her comedies though) and later as a producer.

  41. JoJo says:

    She’s not touching her hair, she’s playing air guitar, although the shot is badly done because she just looks weird and awkwardly posed.

    She is godmother to Courtney Cox’s daughter. I think most of her friends have kids, and some of their kids are technically old enough to start having their own kids, so I’m pretty sure she has lots of kids in her life. Kids running is sort of a staple in any beach scene. I’m no huge Jen fan, but I don’t think she was baiting the press in this case.

  42. Brianna says:

    Still THIRSTY for attention and still pushing her woumb again
    Forgetting not long ago how much she complained about people discussing her woumb and procreating. Just STOP.

  43. Ramona Q. says:

    I’m imagining the photoshop guy settling in with a fresh cup of coffee to work on Jen Aniston’s crotch area. Her crotch is LITERALLY front and center. Gross. How about some pants.
