Is Jennifer Aniston entitled to throw pity parties for herself?

According to Suzanne Moore this Sunday she should just get over it, because she's rich, young and good-looking and there are no children involved.
Quote "Being dumped for Angelina Jolie cannot be nice and could surely happen to anyone. But, Jesus, Jennifer Aniston talks about herself as though she has a terminal illness."

I think that's a very cruel and superficial way of looking at it. If Jennifer Aniston took her marriage vows seriously, why should she be over it and "moving on" only seven (? I think) months after the split?

caligula that's presumably with flagons of archers/diamond white on tap?

monkeytrousers · 09/08/2005 14:02

To be sang only when staggeringly drunk and belting the last note (the longest recorded in the world BTW)

monkeytrousers · 09/08/2005 14:02

Such brutal memories..

suzywong · 09/08/2005 14:11

did you ever do that for an audtion MT?

monkeytrousers · 09/08/2005 14:19

Haha Suzy! No but I have had some shockers, believe me. That particular memory pertains to my mother mid dumping cycle with step-dad. [grimace emoticon]

A friend of mine was an actress in the 60s and she went for a screen test to be a mistress of Casanova's.

She dropped out of the audition because they wanted to see her breasts before they would offer her the part. She pointed out that Casanova wouldn't have seen her breasts before he went to bed with her, so why the hell should they?

They talked bollocks about freedom of expression etc., but as she said, they only wanted certain types of breast on screen and they wanted to check beforehand whether she had the right type. Talk about censorship.

Sorry for the digression, just thought I'd lob that in!

batters & suzywong - you are tooo bad !

you're the type of girls my mum warned me against !!!

monkeytrousers · 09/08/2005 15:28

Yes Caligula - and not the type that have been tugged on by a toddler for breakfast, lunch and tea, you can betcha!

monkeytrousers · 09/08/2005 15:29

Mind you, one of the last castings I went to the director asked me to bend over so he could get a better look at my arse. I kid you not!

monkeytrousers · 09/08/2005 19:28

I can't believe I killed it with that!

motherinferior · 09/08/2005 20:11

I have to ask if it was in any way an arse-related role.

Caligula · 09/08/2005 20:12

All female roles under 30 are arse related. Didncha know?

monkeytrousers · 09/08/2005 20:26

Yes, it was. I had an epifany!

monkeytrousers · 09/08/2005 20:27

Thankyou, MotherInferior.

Caligula · 09/08/2005 20:28

What's an epifany? Anything like a suppository?

monkeytrousers · 09/08/2005 20:32

Like Paul on the road to Damascus. A sudden moment of clarity..I think.

monkeytrousers · 09/08/2005 20:33

So could be like a suppository, yes..Same effect.

motherinferior · 09/08/2005 20:34

If it was an epifanny, surely it was an audition for the Vagina Monologues?

Caligula · 09/08/2005 20:35

cackle. It's got to that time of the evening...

monkeytrousers · 09/08/2005 20:37

splutter! I wish!

An eipfanny..Sorry, but did you see Extras th other night with Kate Winslet? Very funny fanny moment!

motherinferior · 09/08/2005 20:40

No, but wish I had.

I'm sorry, a woman's point of view, but whats with the Angelina Jolie thing? She isn't even pretty, only when caked in make-up - she also has odd features.

Although I am not a big fan of JA, she looks really naturally pretty - maybe a bit into herself, but no more than any other LA actress

Angelina Jolie is vile vile vile
