Jennifer Aniston Thread

[Maryt]

At the moment, Jennifer is part of this forum - she is in the description. So all those asking posters to move her should direct their comments to the forum moderators (posters have nothing to do with where discussion on her should be). Unless/until Jennifer gets moved out of the description, posts on her are supposed to go here. If you want to avoid her it's pretty easy to do by not coming into the one thread devoted solely to her.

And as for Pitt and Jolie and the "frenzy" over their engagement - there is only a "frenzy" because they wanted there to be one and the media is hoping to create one so that they can garner interest from the public. If this was truly just about them getting married ("for the kids") then they would have just gone and done it. The way this rolled out with the sanctioned picture, then the press release to THR from the jeweler after no one cared about the ring in the picture, then the confirmation about the "promise for the future" - it's laughable. They've been together 7 years, have 6 kids and almost as many homes together, have stated repeatedly there is no greater commitment then the kids and yet now she needs a ring to guarantee a "promise for the future?" Please. Besides, on neutral websites (those not pro or anti Pitt/Jolie) the general consensus from commenters seems to be "who cares" or "engaged? seems anti-climatic." People magazine can change their cover story for this week if they want, but they might want to remember that one of their worst selling issues last year was a cover story devoted to Pitt/Jolie and family - a fact posted here earlier this year when such numbers were released. From what I can see, Jennifer has had to be dragged into this news by the media in order to create stories and garner any public interest - there are a ton of stories floating around about comparing the two engagement rings, discussing the timeline of their relationship (and remarking on the crossover period with Jennifer and Pitt's marriage), as well as articles about Jennifer's made-up reaction to the news (courtesy of Hollywood Life who invented the original article).

On topic: From an interview with personal trainer Christina Howells:

The aesthetic ideal has shifted in the past few years, moving away from the athletic bodies of the 1980s and super-skinny look of the 1990s and early Noughties to one that is more feminine and toned. Jennifer Aniston, if you like. ('Yes, she’s my favourite,’ agrees Howells. 'Not too skinny and with curves. She also looks happy in her body.’)

And here's more on this week's Life & Style story about Jennifer and Justin and her supposed pregnancy:

Did Jennifer Aniston Announced Her Pregnancy To Tom Hanks And Rita Wilson

The word is that Jennifer Aniston and Justin Theroux announced her pregnancy to Tom Hanks and his wife Rita Wilson at dinner several days ago. Tom and Rita are old friends of Jennifer’s – going all the way back to her days with Brad Pitt. Furthermore, Tom and Rita are not people anyone would be ashamed to be seen dining with.

So why did Jen sneak in through the back door of Katsuya for her dinner date on April 4th in Los Angeles… and why does an eyewitness report that Jen was covering up her stomach?

Further evidence in favor of believing that Jennifer is pregnant is that she has given up her favorite drink – vodka – in favor of water with lemon. But even more compelling is that she has finally stopped smoking!

“Jen was covered up in black and was hiding her stomach,” notes a restaurant insider. “She wanted as much privacy as possible.” And Justin was apparently super snuggly as he protected his pregnant woman.

All of this is revealed in Life & Style Print Edition, April 23rd:

After weeks of speculation that America’s sweetheart is expecting, a glowing Jen, 43, nibbled on pregnancy-friendly veggie-sushi rolls, seaweed salad, and rice and vegetables while her ecstatic boyfriend doted on her with her long-time friends toasting with Sake.” Justin was very affectionate with Jennifer. He had his arm around her, and held her hand and kissed her,” shares a fellow diner.” They looked like newlyweds!”

Justin has been a constant source of support as Jens paid regular visits to OB/GYN Dr. Robert Katz to see how fertile she is, according to an insider, and to get blood work done to check her hormone levels. After not getting the results they wanted, she’s now switched to OB/GYN Dr. Edward Liu at Cedars-Sinai Hospital in LA.

“I’ve always wanted to have children,” Jen said.” I want to have it all.”

The thing is, there really is no media frenzy. This isn't nearly as big of an attention getter that it would have been 3 years ago. Really nobody cares. They are old news. Nothing they do matters now and they are still saying it's for the kids, not each other. No date set either. This is an attempt at attention, but for the most part it's been met with a yawn. Not even the loons are that excited.

Not believing anything until I see it. For all we know, its another BS. Nothing different from the other 234640 "Aniston is Pregnant" covers.

[Guest]

I am no fan of Brangelina and rarely comment on them, but it is hard for me to say congrats. Why? They have been together for so long why not just get married in an intimate ceremony and be done with it? IMO it looks like a PR move where they get to milk the thing twice. The engagement and then the wedding. Oh well. Happy for their fans, but can they please leave Jen out of it. Why do they think that an engagement for them would matter to her? They have been together for 7 years and have 6 kids...lol

this article is contracdicting itself, the last paragraph make it sound like they are still trying

[Guest]

I agree with everything you have said MaryT. If it truly was for them and their children, then just go and get married. There is no reason for an announcement. The only purpose that serves is to create speculation surrounding not only them and their family but also Jennifer as well.

As for the pregnancy story from life and style. Its hard to know when they are making this stuff up, but if Jen did not drink and only ate vegetarian sushi then its definitely a possibility. If you look back at the pics and video we had through out Feb (especially the WOF ceremony), Jen had a small bump, but it was there in the priemere photos, it was reall noticeable during some of the press interviews (especially the MTV interview when Paul and Jen are walking to their seats and access hollywood interview). Even at a point during the prank on the Ellen show you could see it. So it was not due to clothes or a certain angle, however it just be weight gain, although it did not look like that to me.

She has signed on for projects but some dont have a definitive start date and the swtich movie she has not been confirmed for. I am not sure what's going on with MYA. The director had said he would announce the co star soon but he has not. And he tweeted back to someone asking about working with an "actress" that was inferred to be jen that he "hoped so" but he likes her. This made m think that something has postponed the start of this movie or thrown soemthing up in the air.

Again, I think their is evidence to go both ways. Sightings and pics have been few and far between so I guess we will just have to wait for something more definitive.

Agreed ThisMadScientist! If anything I believe it's actually an entirely false story. Just bringing it over to give an idea of what the tabloid is saying and because there is no new Jennifer pics/news. I'm actually surprised that they can get away with putting in actual doctor's names and claiming that she's a patient. Regardless of whether this info is true or not, the doctors are real and IMHO should not be used in a story. If Jennifer is a patient of theirs, then that shouldn't be printable (it should be private and off limits), and if she's not, then they shouldn't be allowed to invent that lie and put a real doctor's name in their story. There really needs to be some sort of regulation of these tabloids since it is beyond ridiculous what they are allowed to get away with.

I am no fan of Brangelina and rarely comment on them, but it is hard for me to say congrats. Why? They have been together for so long why not just get married in an intimate ceremony and be done with it? IMO it looks like a PR move where they get to milk the thing twice.

Agree Lola. There is no other way to view it other than a PR stunt based on the way they rolled this out. These same people who claim to want privacy have just invited the press to speculate ad nauseum about their wedding. If they had just kept quiet and done it, this wouldn't have been the case. I can't wait for them to be married as I hope this might finally put another nail in the coffin of the "triangle." I also think it's ridiculous to think Jennifer gave this more than a passing thought - it's nothing more than a formality at this point, so why would she remotely care?

Here are the videos where a I think a bump is pretty obvious

MTV interview
From around 14-20 secs when shes walking, 24secs when she turns to the side, 28-30 when she walks to sit down.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3hsAxjsl ... EXXH92uyc=

WOF
At 1:46-1:55 as she is posing with her dad
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8gOsIUtJ ... ure=relmfu
If you watch some of the other videos with the speeches it can be seen then and you can see the she keeps tuggging on her dress trying to pull it down so the part of the dress that ties up covers her lower stomach, but it just keeps sliding up.

Do other's see this?

[ThisMadScientist]

Oh dear God. Please can people not start this ridiculous scrutiny on the woman's body all over again? If she is pregnant, she will let people know when she feels like it. Seeing imaginary bumps won't make it true. She isn't having a baby until she herself says she is.

...and about the rest of the crap he worte martyr that is, it is pointless. Brad and Angie can do whatever they want . We fans want to see clebration so are normal other people who love to see a union celebration.
Marragie is conistituion. I believe it is what god made it to soldify a union infront of him. Though Brad and Angie doing everything do back wards, there is not reason they should mis the oppurtunity for this. If you gonna do everything then why not the engament? may be a chance to get to suprpise angie, a chance to give her something meaningful. May be a chance to sit in one knee ask her to marry him do the traditional thing Why not???? why having kids and being together should stop you from enjoying?? it is not a bad thing just because you have kids it doesn't mean you should mis the whole tradition and celebriation.
People would have known in one way or another if they are engaged if she just wore the engament ring and said nothing and that would lead to the question and then eventually she would admit. It so admiting first and done with it is fine way to go.

to blind and incoherent LOON






go be happy for brad and angie and leave us alone

So what are you doing in here go and celebrate their engagment. Who is holding here. We are here celebrating true love of Jen and Justin

[Guest]

I think it is a shocking invasion of privacy and the tabs should be fined for giving out names of doctors of celebs or anyone for that matter. Sounds like stalking.
