Jennifer Aniston

Yesterday the Internet exploded upon learning that Angelina Jolie had filed for divorce from her partner of 12 years Brad Pitt.

And with early reports suggesting that Brad had been cheating on his wife and that Angelina had grown anxious of her spouse’s approach to parenting, the world quickly began to crave the answer to one other very important question: What does Jennifer Aniston think of this?

Sources close to the former Friends star have reportedly told Us Weekly that while Jen doesn’t wish anything bad on Brad, the news of his latest split has left her feeling a little “satisfied”.

The source alleged that the Mother’s Day actress said “Yeah, that’s karma for you” when discussing the news with a close friend.

And while the 46-year-old did believe that her ex-husband loved the Maleficent star, the source claims “she always got the sense that something would happen with them eventually”.

“She didn’t feel that Angelina was truly the one who Brad was meant to stay with,” they continued.  “She always felt that Angelina was too complex for him.  He’s a pretty simple guy.”

Brad and Angelina have been together since 2004 after famously meeting on the set of Mr. & Mrs. Smith.

At the time, he was still married to Jennifer who the source says “admittedly feels sort of satisfied about Brad and Angelina’s split”.

Earlier this month actress Jennifer Aniston led an impressive conversation about the position of women in society as she criticised the press for their treatment of female celebrities and now the star has given one of her most powerful interviews yet to a group of teenagers at an Italian film festival.

During a Question and Answer session with a gathering of children and teens at Giffoni Film Festival, Jen got real on the topic of self doubt.

When one youth asked her if she has ever woken up in the morning feeling unsure of her identity, Jen openly replied: "There are not enough fingers and toes in this entire room to count how many times that moment has happened to me."

"We're all human beings at the end of the day, whether we're a waitress or a baker or a student or whatever we are, at the end of the day you kind of can hit walls and think I can't go any farther. Or this is too much.”

“My heart can't take it or the pain is too great, or am I good enough? Will I survive?"

“And you just have to sort of somehow miraculously overcome. You just go, ‘I can't, yes I can, yes you can.'"

Upon receiving a round of applause for her answer, the Friends star – who was presented with a Lifetime Achievement award at the festival – looked visibly moved as she became tearful and dabbed her eye with a tissue.

She then continued: "And also know that your actors, your idols, your icons, whatever you call them, have all had that experience or that moment in their lives many, many times.”

“There's nothing that separates us from you, because we all started at the same place."

"We all came out of nowhere. We were all born little innocent empty vessels. Don't punish yourself if you feel that. Go talk to people and seek help and always find something to inspire you."

We love hearing Jennifer speak in such a raw way about this important topic and hope she continues to inspire in the future.

Just weeks after Jennifer Aniston grabbed headlines all over the world for reportedly boasting a burgeoning baby bump, the former Friends actress has again grabbed the attention of the global media.

And despite what multiple media outlets around the world might have hoped, the Hollywood heavy-hitter did not break her silence on the issue to confirm the reports.

Dismissing the reports in no uncertain terms instead, Jennifer called on the media to reevaluate the image they have of women – famous or not – and consider the impact societal pressures have on the younger generation.

"The sheer amount of resources being spent right now by press trying to simply uncover whether or not I am pregnant (for the bajillionth time… but who’s counting) points to the perpetuation of this notion that women are somehow incomplete, unsuccessful, or unhappy if they’re not married with children," she wrote.

And like millions other women around the world, Jennifer's essay has struck a chord with former Girls Aloud member, Cheryl, who showed her support on social media this morning.

Taking to Twitter to share the actress's essay, 33-year-old Cheryl wrote: "Just when I thought I couldn't love her any more."

Having been married twice, Cheryl, who is now in a relationship with 1D's Liam Payne, is no stranger to speculation when it comes to starting a family.

And like Jennifer, Cheryl has seen her changing appearance used as tabloid fodder since her rise to fame in 2002.

Agreeing with the Fight For This Love singer, a fan of the star wrote: "She speaks so much truth. It's ridiculous what you both have to put up with to do what you love."

"She's so inspiring isn't she? She's said it right," added another. "I just wish other people could understand such a simple concept."

Jennifer's essay can be read in full here.

In an open letter published on the Huffington Post website, Jennifer Aniston put to bed any speculation that she might be pregnant.

Titled "For The Record", Jennifer began by saying that her decision to speak had more to do with starting a conversation rather than actually dismissing the rumours.

“Let me start by saying that addressing gossip is something I have never done.  I don’t like to give energy to the business of lies, but I wanted to participate in a larger conversation that has already begun and needs to continue.”

Jennifer hit the headlines after a picture of her in a swimsuit lead some to believe she may be pregnant.

“For the record, I am not pregnant. What I am is fed up.

“I’m fed up with the sport-like scrutiny and body shaming that occurs daily under the guise of ‘journalism’ the ‘First Amendment’ and ‘celebrity news’.”

The 47-year-old actress went on to describe her relationship with the media and the scrutiny she’s been victim to.

“Every day my husband and I are harassed by dozens of aggressive photographers staked outside our home who will go to shocking lengths to obtain any kind of photo.

“This past month in particular has illuminated for me how much we define a woman’s value based on her marital and maternal status.

“The sheer amount of resources being spent right now by press trying to simply uncover whether or not I am pregnant (for the bajillionth time… but who’s counting) points to the perpetuation of this notion that women are somehow incomplete, unsuccessful, or unhappy if they’re not married with children. “

Jennifer has been in the public eye for over 20 years and has faced ridiculous rumours and embarrassment in the media.

However, this is one woman who is not letting the headlines define her life.

“We are complete with or without a mate, with or without a child.

“That decision is ours and ours alone. Let’s make that decision for ourselves and for the young women in this world who look to us as examples.

“We don’t need to be married or mothers to be complete. We get to determine our own ‘happily ever after’ for ourselves.

Saying all this, Jennifer still does not rule out having children rather admits she is not actively trying.

“I have grown tired of being part of this narrative. Yes, I may become a mother someday, and since I’m laying it all out there, if I ever do, I will be the first to let you know.”

We're devastated for Jennifer Aniston this morning as she has just announced her mam, Nancy, has passed away.

The actress released a statement last night confirming the news:

"It is with great sadness that my brother John and I announce the passing of our Mother Nancy Dow. She was 79 years old and passed peacefully surrounded by family and friends after enduring a long illness. We ask that our family’s privacy be respected as we grieve our loss.”

Jennifer previously admitted that she had a difficult relationship with her mother, but in recent years the pair have become close again:

"She was critical. She was very critical of me. Because she was a model, she was gorgeous, stunning. I wasn’t. I never was. But what’s the point of holding on to [anger]? That’s so toxic."

We hope Jennifer and her family are OK.

When you're one of the world's most well-known faces we assume nothing fazes you, but it looks like this isn't the case, at least not for Jennifer Aniston anyway!

Upon learning that she had been crowned World's Most Beautiful Woman for 2016 by People magazine this week, Jen admitted she struggled to take the big news in her stride.

The former Friends star is celebrated on the cover of the American publication today, but it sounds like she's still not quite used to the attention.

Commenting on the accolade, the 47-year-old star gushed: "I thought, ‘Oh my God'. There was this sort of very excited, teenage-y kind of moment.”

A firm favourite with the American public ever since she pushed through Central Perk's doors in a soaking-wet wedding dress back in 1994, Jennifer admits that she needs to put more effort into certain parts of her life in recent years.

“It’s funny, it’s a really quick transition from, not a care, and now all of a sudden, we’ve got to really be mindful of what we put inside our bodies." she said. "And how we sleep and take care of ourselves. You can get away with a lot in your 20s." 

You can? We definitely haven't gotten that memo.

Despite being notoriously private as a couple (we still worry we will NEVER see her wedding dress), Jennifer Aniston has given us a sneak peek into married life in a recent interview. 

Speaking to Harper's Bazaar, she admitted that her actor hubby helps to keep her young. 

"I’m lucky because Justin is the funniest person I’ve met, and we make each other laugh," said the 47-year-old. 

"Laughter is one of the great keys to staying youthful."

Thanks for the tip, Jen. 

The former Friends star also noted that marrying Justin was a natural next step. The pair tied the knot in a super secret ceremony in August of 2015. 

"Married life is so normal and fun and not much different. We felt married for so long." 

On age, the actress revealed she has never felt better. 

"I feel better in my 40s. Not only do you feel better in your body physically, but you’re mentally better.

"Because, say, in your 20s, you didn’t know sh*t. For me, in my 30s I was just trying to figure it all out.

"Then when you hit 40, you’re like, 'Oh, OK. I got this.' There are women who’ve hit 50 who are stunners, like shocking. We just take better care of ourselves."

So, it might not be the reunion we were all hoping for, but still, seeing the gang all together again is giving us serious chills.

Jennifer Aniston, Lisa Kudrow, Matt Le Blanc, Courteney Coz and David Schwimer all came together yesterday for the taping of NBC's upcoming special, Must See TV: A Tribute to James Burrow.

And thanks to The Big Bang's Kaley Cuoco, we got a little sneak peek into what went down last night.

The picture isn't just the cast of Friends though (minus Matthew Perry), but some of The Big Bang's stars joined in too.

And in another photo op, a few Will & Grace favourites were at the party too, making our hearts flutter as we remember the good times on TV.

Does this mean there's going to be crossover episodes in the future?! Probably not, but girls can dream.

OK, let's try not to freak out and totally fan-girl but the news is true, there will be a FULL Friends reunion soon.

NBC has confirmed that Jennifer Aniston, Lisa Kudrow, Courteney Cox, Matthew Perry, Matt LeBlanc and David Schwimmer will all take part in a special show to honour sitcom director James Burrows.

The special is going to air on Sunday, February 21, which possibly means they will be filming pretty soon.

However, NBC's Robert Greenblatt put a little spanner in the works: "Hoping that all six of them will be in the same room at the same time, but I'm not sure we can logistically pull that off," he said.

Will and Grace's Sean Hayes will be producing the special episode and the Will and Grace cast will also be included. 

This is going to be one hell of a show.

We all know that Jennifer Aniston and Justin Theroux are a notoriously private couple and we would like to think that we respect that. 

Though, we have to admit that we do lament the lack of cute couple selfies of the pair.

We don't know if we will ever see what Jen wore on her wedding day but at least we got a cute snap of the couple published by Justin on his Instagram. 

It looks like the gorgeous couple are hitting the slopes for the festive season as the two are kitted out in ski gear. Justin also encourage his fans to remember to give to charity this festive season. 

While Jen does not really engage in social media, Justin jumped on the Instagram bandwagon only three weeks ago and now we finally have a snap of the newlyweds together.

A photo posted by @justintheroux on

Justin and Jen tied the knot last August in a small and private affair at thier Bel Air home where they could control the event meaning we got NO images of the dress. 

And while there is very few other pics on the account, there is a sexy snap of a lady from the back who looks suspiciously like Jen. 

We can only speculate that this is perhaps a throwback picture to the red Valentino gown that Jen wore to the Oscars in 2013.

Either way, we hope we get a lot more snaps of our favourite Hollywood couple if not a sneak peek of their wedding day.

Ah the humble photobomb. 

One moment of comedic spontaneity captured on film for us to all laugh at forever

Photobombs are hilarious at the best of times and an unintentional photobomb is even better, but we never get tired of seeing our fave celebrities deciding to photobomb eachother.

That stuff is priceless. 

So here we have the definitive ranking of the best celebrity photobombs of the entire year. 

8. Hilary Clinton gets photobombed by Kim and Kanye

There was no way that Kim Kardashian was going to continue living without a selfie with the next potential leader of the free world. 

And there was no way that Kanye was not going to photobomb it. 

7. Naomi Campbell and Fifty Cent get photobombed by Leonardo di Caprio

This endlessly enjoyable snap could have just been photobombed by a very creepy looking and hairy stranger but this pic is infinitely funnier because it's Leonardo di Caprio. 

6. Diane Kruger gets photobombed by Jared Leto

"Who is this blazen-haired, satin-wearing stranger destroying my carefully crafted pap shots? 

"Oh. it's just you Jared. Carry on."

5. Blake Lively and Taylor Swift get photobombed by a kangaroo 

Winner of the cutest photobomb ever by a country mile. 

4. Jennifer Lopez gets photobombed by Jennifer Aniston 

Because sometimes you have to destroy that too perfect selfie. 

3. The entire cast of Game of Thrones gets photobombed by Amy Schumer 

This just gives us life. 

2. Beyonce and Jay-Z get photobombed by a slice of pizza 

What is that even doing there? 

1. Kim and Kanye gets photobombed by Amy Schumer 

We think this photobomb will go down in history. 

No one can steal Amy's thunder, NO ONE.

We've seen enough flashback episodes of Friends to know what Rachel Green looked like as a teen, but it turns out Jennifer Aniston looked almost identical to her in the early days.

Years before she got her breakout role on the NBC sitcom, Jennifer starred in another TV comedy called Molloy – with none other than The Big Bang Theory's Mayim Bialik.

Mayim took to Instagram this week to share an amazing throwback of herself aged 14 with a 21-year-old Jennifer beside her.

"Yes this is me and Jennifer Aniston in my childhood bedroom. We did a show together before I did 'Blossom.' #tbt" wrote Mayim next to the sepia-tinted snap.

Anyone else see the resemblance?

Last year Mayim shared another – and equally hilarious – early Nineties throwback, this time showing Jen rocking dark, almost black hair and a tartan miniskirt. 

Oh-so emo.

We are LOVING these blasts from the past – wonder how Jen feels about them, though?
