Wow, Jennifer Anniston. Thoughts?

[Wisenotboring]

Just that really. I know she is rich and famous but so are many others and she has just knocked them all out of the park!

Photoshopped............ Rest my case

Rebellenny - no it's not different. It's exactly the same. Slag off her acting, slag off her clothes, slag off her choice of boyfriend etc. It's all just nasty. How would you feel if people discussed you like this? Or discussed your daughter/sister/mother in this way?

It creates a culture of being unkind about people online. What else does it achieve?

Exactly. Who has knees like that?

I have always wished my hair was like JA's, can never quite get it that lovely colour though (and length and body blah blah)

I watched a you tube interview of her with Jason Bateman recently, there were both funny (and lovely looking)

FourFlapjacksPlease - I agree with you some horrible comments about bone structure etc , let’s try and be a bit kinda

I think she's gorgeous, seems a really nice, fun person too.

So what does it achieve if all we do is lavish praise on Holllywood stars and find no faults with them. Does that not create a culture of “celebrity worship”. No I think it’s good to have an even balance. Why should we all follow like sheep. They get plenty of glorification as it is. Nobody created a thread to slate her, some people love her and think she’s beautiful, others don’t and are saying why they don’t think so. Just how it should be........and you can’t compare it with “how you would feel if others discussed your daughter, sister, mother this way” She’s a Hollywood actress, they expect, and get critique.

Its not really hard for women with lots of money and no children to spend time and money on their looks is it? Id much rather admire someone who hasn't filled their face with Botox and had thousands of pounds of plastic surgery, and isn't afraid of aging.

I agree women shouldn't need to be afraid of ageing but I think that the big difference for people like her is that if she 'allows' herself to age, she is almost certainly choosing to end her career as well.

At least none of us ordinary folk are actually looking at our employment coming to an end if our jawline gets saggy

How can she not be afraid of ageing when being an actor (not a model) apparently means you have to accept people discussing how beautiful or masculine your features are every time someone takes a photo of you.
The media pressure to look youthful and “attractive” is immense for any celebrity and the majority of the public buy into that by being overly critical of their appearance as if they are not a human being and should expect it due to their job.

Jameela Jamil is a former presenter, model and now actor who was fat shamed by the British press and now insists on no air brushing of any of her photos. Her stretch marks are visible, her very beautiful “bingo wings” on show etc She’s absolutely beautiful and it is so brave to be in the minority and refuse any air brushing. But I don’t blame individuals like JA for using those techniques. It’s the whole culture putting too much pressure on women to be unrealistically attractive always.

I actually believe ageing could be the making of her, career-wise. Like I said upthread, I think she's a talented comic actress and I've been itching to see her take on something more challenging than those awful pretty-young-ditzy-women roles. I assume that was why she started her own production company. She's smart.

Hollywood should take responsibility for the messages it sends out to women. Women look at these airbrushed stars and feel insecure about their own looks. Hence the ridiculous obsession with duck lips, fillers Botox etc, also the over dieting, setting unrealistic goals. There’s too much emphasis on looks, and yes I think JA and others like her should take some of the blame. Let us see what they really look like, warts and all. Those photos of JA were heavily photoshopped hence this thread with all the predictable “she’s beautiful” posts.

Love her!

@lljkk know her personally do you? 😂

She's always been gorgeous!

I never thought she was good-looking when younger either.

She's aged incredibly well though. Perhaps "prettier" people find it tougher because they are expected to remain "pretty" iyswim?

This thread has turned really unpleasant. Do we really need to dissect a woman in this visceral way? Her mouth, her chin, her eyes, her 'long flat face' for fucks sake? How it's 'baffling' that she could be considered attractive?

Anyone who finds themselves talking people down in that fashion, in public, from behind an anonymous username, should take a hard fucking look at their behaviour.

I do think it's easier to age well when it's your job to age well.
Job: keep self looking good, go to gym, eat well, sleep, don't have children steal 8 years of sleep from you, learn lines.

Job: bog standard professional. Up at 6, chivvy kids, frown a lot. Cm drop off. Drive to work. Frown a lot and hunch. Work. Frown a lot. Roll eyes a lot. Carry heavy stuff. Repeat in reverse. Tea. Sugary crap to keep me working to Bed at 10. Couple of gym times a week, but too knackered to work v hard. Result: there is not a foundation.in the world that will hide my bags.

I never liked her from the moment she through Brad and Angelina under the bus when even she herself admitted he didn't cheat. She waged a war, a vendetta against the JPs for almost 10 years; mentioning or referencing Brad in some way in every second interview she did during that time, went on the talk shows for attention and sympathy, promoted the 'Team Jen' shirts, dissed Brad and Angelina separately on a regular basis, and had Handler make horrible comments about Angelina and racist comments about Angelina and Brad's adopted children - all while introing Aniston while Aniston walked on stage on cue grinning like a cheshire cat. On two separate occasions. So we know it wasn't a mere mistake or once-off.

I hate that she got a free pass for breaking up Justin Theroux and Heidi Bivens, a relationship of 14 years. She's Jennifer Aniston, she just gets away with it. No, she is classless and trashy to me.

As for looks? Lets be honest here. Women support her because she is the classic case of the plain Jane snaring the hot star quarterback, giving hope for ordinary women everywhere. She has to work extremely hard to stay thin (she's referenced her Greek genes regarding this), has the most appalling hair; dry, bleached over-processed to straw hair. Her face is extremely masculine. None of this in itself is bad, but it just shows how good PR and mass marketing can turn an over-rated actress and a plain Jane that no one would look twice at if she worked in a supermarket, into a star. Very much like Gwyneth Paltrow.

👍🏻@ HeadachesByTheDozen

I wouldn't have recognised Courtney cox in that picture. Isn't it odd that they now look the same?

It’s like Posie Parker said in one of her interviews; women who have the same surgeon always end up sort of looking the same. Well actually Posie was talking about transwomen but the point still stands.

I bet Jen and Courtney use the same surgeon.

God some of you are SUCH nasty people! Christ!

Do we really need to dissect a woman in this visceral way? Her mouth, her chin, her eyes, her 'long flat face' for fucks sake? How it's 'baffling' that she could be considered attractive?

Why not, we’re being fed a lie, photoshop, airbrushing, botox.....all the money in the world to look good. It’s Hollywood that sets such store on looks, and basically tells us that’s how women should look. Half the time we think someone’s beautiful because we’re told they are. But it’s unattainable, a lie. Let’s have some bloody honesty ffs.
