Wow, this is the best Jennifer Aniston has looked in months, right? Good timing too. These are photos of Aniston at the Cake photocall at TIFF on Tuesday. Her navy and black dress is Sportmax ? much better than the LBD from the other day, but still? this Sportmax dress isn?t flat-out awesome or anything. But I?m still saying that this is the best she?s looked in a while. She?s tan not orange, she looks fit and toned, her face doesn?t look Botoxed or anything. Her hair isn?t even annoying me. Great appearance!
As for the reviews? Cake has been very well-reviewed this week. Some sites are saying that Aniston could have a place on the shortlist for a Best Actress Oscar, but I?m not seeing it. Maybe that?s my knee-jerk opinion of Aniston, or maybe it?s because after years of reading stuff from her press machine, I can see when something is being strangely overhyped. Take this People Magazine write up:
She’s been called America’s sweetheart, but Jennifer Aniston swept into the Toronto International Film Festival with a warts-and-all star turn that got her a standing ovation ? and immediate awards buzz. In Cake, Aniston, 45, plays a woman suffering from addiction, rage issues and suicidal depression after a tragic accident leaves her scarred inside and out. It’s hardly the romantic comedy she’s known for.
With greasy hair, no makeup and a fire she’s never before displayed on screen, Aniston gives a riveting performance that brought the film festival audience to its feet at its Toronto premiere Monday.
“It’s awesome and liberating to let that all go,” Aniston said of her makeunder for the role. “And see yourself looking like that on a 50-foot screen.”
Aniston ? who’s engaged to fellow actor Justin Theroux ? talked of moving stiffly and with great discomfort, aided by a back brace, to play a woman suffering from chronic pain caused by a car accident. If it looked painful, it’s because she was in pain, she says, adding, “But I’m back now ? it took a while.”
She also said she spent time with a close friend and stunt double, who became addicted to prescription drugs after a boating accident, to prepare for the part.
The film, directed by Daniel Barnz, costars Adriana Barraza, Sam Worthington and Anna Kendrick, and it was warmly received at Toronto’s historic Elgin theater.
“Oh my God, that’s so sweet,” said a visibly moved Aniston, looking radiant in a short black cocktail dress and nothing like her character, to an audience member who lauded her bravery for playing a character who is unattractive inside and out.
Barnz called her “the most courageous actress I know” for leaving her vanity behind.
[From People]
?The most courageous actress I know?? Hyperbole, how does it work? Aniston is literally the most courageous actress EVER for wearing some prosthetic scars on her face and skipping the mascara. I tend to think it?s insulting ? people act like ?Aniston without makeup? = bridge troll. She?s a perfectly attractive woman and she doesn?t look that different without makeup.
Jen also spoke to E! about how ?liberating? it was to do a less glamorous role and how she was able to wander around a Target one night with no one recognizing her because she was in her character?s clothes ? go here to read that story. No disrespect in general, because seriously, Aniston?s fans have been begging her to do this kind of serious, unglamorous role for years now. So, I say let the fans have their moment. Let them believe that Aniston will make the Oscar shortlist. Bless them. As of Wednesday night, Cake still didn?t have an American distributor. Just FYI.

Here is Jennifer Aniston going braless for the premiere of her new film “Cake.” The film was premiered at the Toronto Film Festival. Jen walked the red carpet in an all black outfit and unlike her usual conventional style, rocked major nipples.
She basically has to decide whether she wants to live or die,? Jennifer recently shared to Variety about her Cake character. ?The woman?s journey is so heartbreaking but so uplifting, because she?s gone through a trauma but maintains her wit, which is very endearing.?

I was sort of wondering if this would happen after The Brangelina Wedding happened. If you remember correctly, Jennifer Aniston was in the midst of promoting Life of Crime and a slew of other new movies (Cake, She?s Funny That Way, Horrible Bosses 2) throughout the next few months. Early promotional updates had Aniston schedules to appear at Venice, TIFF and more. But she never came to Venice. I guess she wanted to put some distance between the Brangelina stuff and her first appearance, so she went dark for a few weeks. Smart. And here she is ? she showed up to the TIFF premiere of Cake yesterday.
I can?t find the designer ID on her LBD (maybe Dior?), but she looks good. Kind of boring, but good. I mean, Aniston loves an LBD. And as far as Aniston?s LBDs go, this is one of the best ones I?ve seen. Very flattering, her legs look great and I like how it fits her body. I would have loved to see her bring something different with her hair (flat-ironing, hair-in-face thing is so ?90s). Justin Theroux came out to support her too, and her costars Anna Kendrick and Sam Worthington were also on hand.
If you remember, Cake is Aniston?s big attempt to play a gritty, dark, depressed character. She wants to break out of the rom-com hole, I guess. She plays a woman who survived some kind of terrible accident, someone with visible (and psychological) scars, who lives in chronic pain. She didn?t wear any makeup for the role, according to her director. Jennifer spoke to Variety about the film:
Jennifer Aniston says her performance in new drama ?Cake? was physically and emotionally tough, but it was ?beyond a dream role.? Aniston came to the Variety Studio Monday to chat about the film, which has its world premiere Monday at the Toronto Film Festival.
Co-starring Anna Kendrick and Sam Worthington, the indie drama finds the actress playing a character who is in massive chronic pain, who?s addicted to pills and booze and who has alienated everyone in her life.
?She basically has to decide whether she wants to live or die,? Aniston said. ?The woman?s journey is so heartbreaking but so uplifting, because she?s gone through a trauma but maintains her wit, which is very endearing.?
The project, which is looking for a U.S. distributor, came together very fast. Director Daniel Barnz and his partner, producer Ben Barnz, discovered the script in a screenwriting contest 13 months ago and met with the actress in November. Filming started April 3, the final touches were added weeks ago.
Aniston said as soon as she had finished reading the script (by first-timer Patrick Tobin), ?I knew I was going to do it,? because it was a challenge but an opportunity ?to express empathy? for the character and all those undergoing similar experiences.
Aniston allowed herself to be photographed without makeup and looking haggard (though, it should be noted, in person she looks pretty spectacular). Every movement for the character is painful, ?which was hard on my body for five weeks of shooting. I spent weekends seeing a chiropractor and getting massages and trying to maintain my sanity.?
Early word on her performance is very positive and Aniston is upbeat about ?Cake,? which she sums up as ?the little indie that could.?
[From Variety]
I rolled my eyes a little at the ?I spent weekends seeing a chiropractor and getting massages and trying to maintain my sanity? part, but otherwise? I mean, whatever. Good for her. Aniston?s fans have been wanting her to move out of her comfort zone of ?only playing cute, well-dressed characters in comedies? for a while. Will she get an Oscar nomination for this? Um, no. She won?t. But she might get an Independent Spirit Award nomination, so there you go.

I sometimes go on Chris McMillan?s Instagram to see which celebrity woman he?s working with these days. He?s most famous for being Jennifer Aniston?s long-time hair stylist and friend, but McMillan has other big name clients. You know how most of us really like Kim?s current wavy, bedhead-y hair? Chris created that look for her. Chris has started styling Kim for most of her major appearances, including Kim and Kanye?s wedding. So, what happened when Chris?s two most famous clients were in the same place at the same time? Nothing but love. Apparently, Aniston is big fan of all things Kardashian??
Life & Style has exclusively learned Jennifer Aniston?s guilty pleasure: watching Keeping Up With the Kardashians! And, as it turns out, Jen has a girl crush on one Kardashian in particular.
?Jen couldn?t wait to meet Kim during a recent party,? an onlooker dishes exclusively to Life & Style. ?She told Kim that she secretly watches KUWTK.?
And the woman who turned ?The Rachel? haircut into a movement ?was gushing to Kim about how much she loves her skin and her hair,? the insider reveals.
Kim?s reaction? ?Kim was like, ?But you?re Jennifer Aniston. It?s your hair that?s famous!?? And maybe it?s a coincidence, but ?Kim and Jen now share the same hairstylist, Chris McMillan.?
[From Life & Style]
I think at this point, genuine celebrities run into Kim Kardashian and they?re nice to her. Like, no one is rolling their eyes at her like they probably did four years ago. Maybe it?s that Kim has been around long enough, maybe it?s because she married Kanye, whatever it was, Kim has been ?accepted? by more legitimate figures in Hollywood. While I doubt Jennifer was gushing to Kim, I bet they were at the same place at the same time and Jennifer was probably perfectly pleasant to her. What?s the use in being mean to Kim to her (cat)face? I mean that seriously ? what?s the point?
PS? Picture this: Jennifer Aniston and Justin Theroux lying in bed together, watching KUWTK and talking about whether Khloe is just rebounding with French Montana.

Stepping out for some promotional duties, Jennifer Aniston and Will Forte showed up at the ArcLight Cinemas in Hollywood to plug their new flick ?Life of Crime? last night (August 27).
The ?Rumor Has It? actress donned a fabulous Saint Laurent dress as she hammed it up for the fans and shutterbugs while Will hid beneath a bushy beard he?s been growing for an upcoming role.
Per the synopsis, ?Two common criminals get more than they bargained for after kidnapping the wife of a corrupt real-estate developer who shows no interest in paying the $1 million dollar ransom for her safe return.?
Meanwhile, Mr. Forte chatted with press about his experience with the film, so check out the video. ?Life of Crime? hits theaters on August 29th.

These are some of the most depressing premiere pics I?ve ever seen of Jennifer Aniston. She was premiering Life of Crime in LA, and it was like someone just told her that Santa Claus isn?t real. She looks like she?s about to cry in nearly all of the pics! What?s up, Jen? Not only that, but she totally looks pregnant in this Saint Laurent ensemble. My guess: she was boozing it up and maybe eating some pasta just before the red carpet. Either that or the sparkly little dress isn?t that flattering.
As for Life of Crime, People Magazine had a nice interview with Jennifer where she talks about her 1970s socialite character and how she based the look on her mom, Nancy Aniston, in the ?70s. When talking about the Elmore Leonard source material, she said: ?I love how he writes his characters? I thought [my character] had such a beautiful arc and a powerful one. In that time, to write that for a woman in the ’70s was pretty awesome.” She also said she wants to produce and direct more stuff and this is what she?s drawn to: ?I love human experience. I love human beings and behavior and relationships, and it will probably have something to do with that.”
Jennifer also appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live last night and he made her do a sort-of Friends reunion. Does she really not know what ?fan-fiction? is? Does this bit sort of fall flat or is it just me? And yes, she seems stoned.

Yay, Jennifer Aniston is promoting something. She?s actually going to be promoting several films over the next few months. She?s got Life of Crime coming out, plus Cake, Horrible Bosses 2 (that?s out in November) and She?s Funny That Way (I don?t know when that comes out). So, Jennifer sat down for her first TV interview of the autumn movie season. Carson Daly interviewed her for Today. Jennifer talked about feminism, the interest in her personal life (major eyeroll on her reaction to that one), her Friends past and more. Some highlights:
Feminism: “I don’t have this sort of checklist of things that have to be done, and ? if they’re not checked, then I’ve failed some part of my feminism or my being a woman or my worth and my value as a woman.”
On taking darker film roles, like her new on in “Life of Crime”: “I’m having a lot of fun, because I’ve been branching out and having fun playing different characters and hiding and going into ? you know, some darker stuff. So I’m excited about it.
On her post-”Friends” career: “I kind of feel very grateful to my evolution and my history ? I would never exchange it for anything.”
[From Today]
I?m including the video below. I don?t really have a problem with the substance of her answers on feminism and her worth as a woman, but taken in context of who she is and her history of playing certain aspects of her personal life out in media, I do think she?s full of it. If you don?t want society to define your worth by whom you marry and whether you?re having babies, fine. More power to you. But don?t build your whole image and public persona on whom you married (and divorced) and whether you?re going to have babies.

Whenever I think about Jennifer Aniston?s understanding of ?new media,? the internet, social media platforms and the like, I always think back to what John Mayer said about Jennifer in his now-infamous Playboy interview, which took place after they had broken up for good. When describing the differences between himself and Aniston and whether social media played a part, he said:
“If Jennifer Aniston knows how to use BitTorrent, I?ll eat my f–king shoe. One of the most significant differences between us was that I was tweeting. There was a rumor that I had been dumped because I was tweeting too much. That wasn?t it, but that was a big difference. The brunt of her success came before TMZ and Twitter. I think she?s still hoping it goes back to 1998. She saw my involvement in technology as courting distraction. And I always said, ‘These are the new rules.’”
[From Playboy]
?I think she?s still hoping it goes back to 1998.? That?s what I always think regarding Jen too. Her primary focus is on old-media and she still announces all of her big milestones with press releases to People Magazine. Anyway, I bring this all up because Jennifer has some new quotes and she?s talking about the internet:
The 45-year-old actress admits she has become so afraid of public criticism, particularly on the internet, that she and her actor fianc Justin Theroux have turned into social hermits who prefer to stay at home.
?You do the best you can but it feels like it?s getting worse and very nasty because of bullying on the internet,? says the Friends star. ?Even movie critics don?t just comment on the film, they tear people apart on a human level. I don?t know why that is happening but it is?we just stay home so there really isn?t anything to report.?
But it?s not all doom and gloom for multimillionaire Jennifer. Earlier this month she jetted off to the Tahitian island of Bora Bora with Justin for a romantic holiday to celebrate his 43rd birthday and mark the two-year anniversary of their engagement.
Jennifer has also landed an extremely lucrative deal as the face of Aveeno hair care and continues to attract top film roles. She is set to star in movie Life Of Crime in September and is also scheduled to attend the Toronto Film Festival for the premiere of another of her films Cake. Another comedy, She?s Funny That Way, which reunites her with her Marley & Me co-star Owen Wilson, will also debut in Venice.
[From Express]
Is it a good idea to bash ?the internet? when she has so much to shill these days? Three new movies, plus Aveeno, SmartWater and Living Proof? The internet could have been her ally if only she would stop seeing herself as the perpetual victim? Don?t get me wrong, I?ve often thought that we could easily get 200-plus comments, with vicious back-and-forth, both for and against, if we merely posted a photo of Jennifer and like three words of commentary. But you know who else inspires that kind of passionate response? Angelina Jolie. And you never hear Angelina complaining about ?the internet.? And for that matter, you never hear Angelina complain about being publicly ?bullied? by Aniston?s BFF Chelsea Handler.

Jennifer Aniston sat down for an interview with Yahoo last week. The interview was conducted by Bobbi Brown, as in the makeup line woman. The piece is surprisingly long. And deep as a puddle. To be fair to both of them, I think the goal/vibe of this interview was just supposed to be about beauty, makeup, hair and style. As it turns out, Bobbi Brown is a huge fan of Aniston and Aniston in turn kisses Bobbi?s ass. Bobbi starts out complimenting Aniston?s style and Aniston says it?s ?just called laziness.? Yawn. You can read the full piece here and here are some highlights:
Aniston?s style confessions: ?This is my secret: The trick to T-shirts is I that I usually tailor them. Which is silly, but it works. Or you just have to find the perfect one. James Perse has really great T-shirts and tank tops, Theory is great for T-shirts and basics, and for jeans, I have these Genetic jeans that they don?t even make anymore. I take the pockets off of Hudson jeans, because I like the fit, but not the pockets. Helmut Lang does a good skinny jean, too. And I wear Saint Laurent jackets.?
Aniston shills Living Proof: ?Have you discovered the Restore Mask yet? That?s a game changer. I do it every Sunday because I do highlight my hair. The one thing with hair, as we get older, is it doesn?t necessarily react as beautifully as it used to when we were in our 20s, which I never knew. Did you know that, that hair ages?… It loses weight.?
Aniston?s aging secret is Greek genes: ?My dad is 100 percent Greek; he turned 81 and he barely has a wrinkle. And neither does my grandmother, who was 95 when she died. But it?s also just water, drinking a lot of water, using really nice good products for your face. Don?t overproduct, that?s the other thing. Getting proper sleep is always important.?
Food/diet: ?I have a Greek salad in front of me, but I also indulge. Oh my god there?s a balance. I just had a bagel. I usually give myself bread on the weekends, but really, my body doesn?t love carbs. These days, if I was being super picky, I would love to drop 5 pounds. That is just where I have always been really comfortable at about 110 to 113 pounds. But it is harder at this age.?
Plastic surgery: ?There is also this pressure in Hollywood to be ageless. I think what I have been witness to, is seeing women trying to stay ageless with what they are doing to themselves. I am grateful to learn from their mistakes, because I am not injecting s**t into my face. No honestly, I see them and my heart breaks. I think, ?Oh god if you only know how much older you look.? They are trying to stop the clock and all you can see is an insecure person who won?t let themselves just age. I also have a fianc who will put a gun to my head if I touch my face in any way.?
Aniston does lasers: ?There are also so many things that women can do today with technology in terms of LED light therapy, good lasers that tighten the muscles, and massages for your face?and don?t forget great creams. I think that?s the route to go. I also understand that age is kind of awesome. I am fortunate enough to know women like Gloria Steinem, who I think is one of the most stunning women on the planet, and doesn?t touch her face. Diane Keaton, Annette Bening, all of these fabulous fearless women who are flawless, they embrace it! You know, to each their own; I don?t judge it if you do it, but sometimes I wish I could beg the people I know, who I am very near and dear to, to not touch their face.?
[From Yahoo]
First of all, she?s totally talking about Courteney Cox, correct? Aniston brings it up twice ? that there are women close to her that she wishes would stop messing with their faces. I?m thinking it?s Courtney. Because what other woman close to Aniston really messes with her face? For all of her faults, Chelsea Handler does not Botox. Neither does Jennifer Meyer. It?s totally CC. Aniston judges CC?s face (as do we all).
As for: ?I also have a fianc; who will put a gun to my head if I touch my face in any way?? Gurl, has he seen your original nose? But I guess that doesn?t count if it happened before him? And she?s confessed to doing Botox once or twice, but she?s never been all Nicole Kidman about it. One theory I have though ? she?s gotten collagen lip injections on-and-off for the past five years. Nothing crazy, nothing overboard, but it’s just something I’ve noticed.
