Jennifer Aniston Thread

[Guest]

I don't think she is being unnecessary. She should show the ring at her own terms IMO and not because some paps are following her around and probably yelling for her to show it. We have only seen her once in a non- work related situation so I don't expect her to be wearing her ring when it doesn't call for it just because us fans are excited to see it or the media so they can break every little detail of the ring for weeks. That being said she should just show it whenever she can and be done with it. Jmo

I'm not upset about her not showing it (though I fully admit I would like to see it!), but I don't think it does her any favors. Personally, I don't think you can really announce an engagement to People magazine and then claim privacy over the ring. And by hiding it (and I'm only talking about the off set pics, because I obviously don't expect her to wear it on set in character), and going out of her way to ensure it doesn't get photographed, she is only drawing more attention, building more suspense and intrigue, and keeping the paps hot on her trail. She's ensuring that this stays very much in the news cycle for longer then it would have if she just showed it last week. I'm not saying she doesn't have her reasons for doing so - as others have said, maybe she wants to keep it to herself for longer, etc., but even so, that doesn't stop the rest of what I said from being true as well. And to me, that only gives her detractors an opening to claim she is doing this for PR purposes, etc. I wouldn't want her to be splashy about showing it either - there doesn't need to be a big unveiling. I just think she should wear it and live her life and if it gets papped, it gets papped.

She might do how she did when she was engaged to Brad-Show it off at an event or something ... I'm not trying to bring Pitt in this, I'm just referring to him because that's how she showed off her ring before...

The difference with the Pitt ring is that they got secretly engaged after 5 months of dating, and she hid the ring AND the engagement until they decided to allow both to get out at the Sting concert months later.

Maybe L&S got it wrong, or just made up the story about the ring, and she doesn't even have one yet. Lots of couples like to pick their rings out together.

[Guest]

I think people are overthinking this. We have only one set of pics of her actually off set since she got engaged. She may not have even given it much thought other than to be leaving a movie, know that paps were going to take a pic and make money and in that moment just flipped her ring to the inside of her hand and put her hand in her pocket. All of this would have taken place in the short walk from the theatre to her car, and she may have just wanted to not allow paps who were following her to make that extra money. Its not like she has continuously been out in public with the paps, hiding her ring, she has really only given them at most a 2 minute window to get a pic and who knows, maybe in that moment she was feeling a bit shy or uncomfortable with the attention. Its a new ring, and she may just be overly aware that she is wearing it and was very aware that she was being followed, and the attention that brings can maybe make her feel a bit reserved.

I also do think she can make an announcement of an engagement without having to provide other tidbits and details. As I said before, they are in the position of either telling nobody about the engagment, or releasing a statement so the info is not leaked by another party. They chose to announce the engagement but have provided no other details, so I don't see why jen needs to allow a photo to be taken of the ring. If they didn't care about people knowing the details then im sure the ring details would have been provided to people mag. They were not, so I think jen wishes to keep this stuff private for the time being.

I also dont envy Jen or Justin because once a pic of the ring does surface EVERYONE will have an opinion about it and it will be compared by size, cost, etc to her old ring and to AJ's ring. Did Justin spend too much, not enough, can he afford it? did jen buy her own ring blah blah blah. I don't blame Jen for wanting to enjoy her ring before everybody gets to shout out their opinion on it.

I think we will get a pic of the ring in a candid where Jen is less likely to be aware that she is being photogrpahed. If the paps can catch her in unguarded moment then they will get their pic. I think people have to remeber that even though Jen has been agressively followed by the paps for 15 years she still seems very guarded in pap pics and they may influence her behaviour to a degree.

Does she really need a body double? <A HREF='http://www.femalefirst.co.uk/celebrity/?celeb=Jennifer Aniston' target='_blank'>Jennifer Aniston</A> flashes her perfect figure... then gets a stand-in to film <A HREF='http://www.femalefirst.co.uk/catalog/' target='_blank'>lingerie</A> scenes

By Lizzie Smith

PUBLISHED: 17:50 GMT, 20 August 2012 | UPDATED: 17:58 GMT, 20 August 2012


With her youthful slim figure and natural beauty <A HREF='http://www.femalefirst.co.uk/celebrity/?celeb=Jennifer Aniston' target='_blank'>Jennifer Aniston</A> has no need of a body double.

But with dangerous stunts to be performed, and the script requiring her to be in her underwear, Jennifer obviously decided that it might be sensible.

The newly engaged actress was replaced by a double half her age on the set of We Are The Millers in North Carolina.

But Jennifer didn't hand over all her racy scenes to the young actress - showing off her perfect figure as she undid her shirt.

No need for a body double: While Jennifer had a stand-in to do her action scenes, she was happy to film some of her <A HREF='http://www.femalefirst.co.uk/catalog/' target='_blank'>lingerie</A> shots herself

Later it was down to Jennifer's body double as action scenes were filmed.

More...

The young stand-in wore her hair cut just like 43-year-old Jennifer's as she dashed out of a smoking building, dressed only in her underwear.

Clutched in her hands were the clothes previously worn by the Friends star, leaving no doubt as to who the double was standing in for.

Spot the difference: The young body double, left, had her hair cut just like Jennifer's, right

Slim Jennifer has no aversion to stripping off if her movies require it, baring her body for a scene in last year's Horrible Bosses.

The action scenes filmed on her new set yesterday also saw a Porsche smashed in two, and men running around with guns.

Jennifer is currently busy filming in Wilmington, while her new fiancé Justin Theroux, 41, remains at home in Los Angeles.
She's wearing a ring! But the gold band on Jennifer's hand is part of her costume, with the actress playing the part of a married woman

He proposed to her on his birthday on August 10. The wedding will be a second for Jennifer, whose marriage to Brad Pitt ended in 2005.

Since then she has dated a string of men, including Vince Vaughan, Bradley Cooper, John Mayer and Owen Wilson, but her flings have been short-lived.

A spokeswoman for Theroux, who is a cousin of British documentary-maker Louis Theroux, confirmed: 'Justin Theroux had an amazing birthday on Friday, receiving an extraordinary gift when his girlfriend, <A HREF='http://www.femalefirst.co.uk/celebrity/?celeb=Jennifer Aniston' target='_blank'>Jennifer Aniston</A>, accepted his proposal of marriage.'

Very well said. She's only been engaged a little over a week people, give her some time.

But why is she still guarded after all those years of being paped? I know it's annoying, but I thought she was used to it by now?

[Guest]

People give her a break. She's only been engaged for a little over a week. Maybe, just maybe she'd like to keep her ring to herself for a week or two.

[Lola:-)]

I don't think she is being unnecessary at all though I think it would be in her best interest to just show it and deal with whatever comes. Like Guest mentioned we have only seen were set of pics of her in a non=working environment and the paps were probably following and yelling at her to show it. If she is going to show it then IMO it should be in her own terms. Sites keep jumping into conclusions she is hiding it from all the pics we have seen of her when most are her at work where I don't expect her to be showing it. I am sure the ring might be paped in a week or so when one of the crazies hides in the bushes to catch her off guard. JMO

I agree. We'll see the ring in good time. What's the hurry? It should be under her control and Jen will not be pushed into anything. That's what I like about her the most. They might even be having the ring resized or something or engraved. She is probably just wearing a ring right now as the pretend wife in the movie.

Thank you so much maryT, you said what I was trying to say but more eloquently . When Justin gave her the Jennifer ring, I loved how she Proudly wore it naturally. She just put it on continued on with her life. I expected her to act the same way towards the engagement ring. No matter when she shows the ring the vultures known as the press will state their opinion about it so prolonging the exposure of it will just keep the press guessing. Frankly I think all engaged celebs always get their ring analyzed by the press. When Jen does show her ring, you better believe usweekly will immediately contact a jewelerer(who did not make the ring SMH) estimating the carats, cost e.t.c.

As for the comparison to the ring her ex husband gave her, that is going to happen & honestly the ring her ex gave her was so ugly that I am almost certain Justin will do better lol. The comparison is inevitable is going to happen whether us fans want it to happen or not. As Jen a fan, I have becOme immuned to the press bull S*** so it doesnt bother me what will be written about her new ring vs her ex. All I care about is that she loves it & adores the ring the way she absolutely loved the Jennifer ring Justin gave her. Like she wore that ring non stop even during photoshoots lol.

Then WHY have huvsy run to People mag to ANNOUNCE the "engagement".....and YES is was huvsy that called People to say FATTY had just gotten engaged TWO whole days before. (because FATTY reads the tabs and was scared to death Brad and Angie might actually be getting married that week-end or at least soon and she was not about to be left out of the story)...Now FATTY can blame Brad and Angie for her miserable predicament, being "engaged" to her fun and forced to either go through with the "wedding" or be even MORE of a laughingstock than she already is.

I agree with a lot of what you say, or think it is a definite possibility. But, at the same time, I think it is naive to paint Jennifer as anything other than the seasoned pro she is - she is well aware of the paps and what they are after here - and we can tell this by the fact that she is actively hiding the ring. She is very business-savvy and I love that about her. While I think there are plenty of great reasons why they did announce the engagement as I've posted up thread, I also wouldn't deny that the release was a lesson in PR 101.

So what I'm getting at is that of course she might want to keep the details to herself, of course she is entitled to do so for whatever reason she chooses, and of course she is entitled to debut the ring when and how she wants. However that said, it doesn't mean that by hiding it now, she isn't actively participating in furthering the media stir about it. Now, she may not care about that - because maybe her reasons for not showing it mean more to her. My point though is that I don't think it benefits her at all to hide it. Because, as you point out, someone is going to get a pic sooner or later (unless she never wears it) - whether she wants them to or not. And whenever they do, it's going to be big news and the comparisons and discussion will ensue - by delaying it being seen, she isn't going to stop that stuff from happening. And in the meantime by not showing it she is allowing/causing numerous stories and rumors to be written about it, and giving her detractors a legitimate reason to think she is seeking further attention. Again, I'm not saying that's fair necessarily or that this is her motivation (I hope and think it isn't), just that this is the outcome. Maybe she thinks it's worth it to keep it to herself for a few more days, but I'm just pointing out that I think the negative repercussions, to me, aren't worth it.

[Maryt]

The above post is mine (in response to Guest) - Maryt - for some reason some of them aren't posting with my name!

[Guest]

I see what you're saying MaryT and I tend to agree somewhat. That being said though she gets crap no matter what she does. Let's say she did happen to show the ring in those latest pic, she'd be accused of seeking attention. Instead she kept the ring hidden and she's still being accused of seeking attention.

Jennifer's always handled things her way and I don't think she gives a shite what people think or what blogs say. Justin issued a beautiful statement about their engagement and I guess for now she feels like she wants to keep at least the one little detail to herself for a bit. You can't blame her.
