What you did not know about Jennifer Aniston, the most beloved actress in Hollywood
She became a television icon forever thanks to "Friends" in the '90s. With a 24-year career, today she is still the most required star in the industry
Jennifer Aniston remains one of the highest grossing actresses in show business. More precisely from Hollywood. In the 90s and 2000s with her role as Rachel Green in the sitcom Friends she won the affection of the audience. A full career of successes, but sentimentally with many mistakes.
However, the star showed that he lives her life in her way and that she cares little what the press says about her. Today, at 49 years old, she is in full force. She will soon be returning to the small screen alongside Reese Witherspoon in a show to be produced by Apple.
A review of the life of one of the blondes most adored by the public.
She is the daughter of actors. She was born on February 11, 1969 in Los Angeles, California. She is the daughter of actor John Aniston, and actress and model Nancy Dow. She grew up in New York but in her youth she moved to Los Angeles to fulfill her dream of being an actress.
Her father did not want her to be an actress. John Aniston was an actor but he was terrified that his daughter would follow in his footsteps. He preferred a more traditional career for her so that she would have greater stability, and he feared that she would suffer from it, that she would be rejected. She was stubborn and succeeded.
Faced. Her relationship with her mother was far from perfect. Aniston remembers her too critical and demanding. Mother and daughter were separated for nine years, in part because Dow wrote a book about their relationship, titled From Mother and Daughter to Friends: A Memoir (1999). During an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, the actress said that her mother was "very spiteful." Dow died on May 26, 2016.
She didn't last in any job. Before she became a Hollywood megastar, she was a messenger for two days, a waitress for a while and worked in telemarketing for a couple of weeks. She moved from NY to Los Angeles because she was not cast for any casting. She was only given roles in theater and Aniston knew that with that she would "not pay the rent." Later, she got a role in the series Molloy (1990) that lasted six episodes, but it served her to pay the rent.
"Friends". Her worldwide fame came from Rachel Green, a role she played from 1994 until she ended the comedy in 2004. Originally the producers wanted her to be Monica Geller. Thanks to her performance in the series, she won three Emmy Awards and a Golden Globe. She received a salary of one million dollars per episode in the tenth season of the show.
Haircut. In the mid-90s women ran to hair salons with photos of Jennifer Aniston to get the same haircut that she wore. The layered hairstyle was nicknamed "The Rachel" in the United States by Aniston's character on "Friends." Years later, the actress acknowledged that she never liked: "It was not my best look. I think it was the ugliest haircut I have ever seen in my life."
Naked. After posing without clothes for GQ, Playboy offered $ 4 million for her to pose for them as well, but she refused, considering that Playboy is "just sex."
Heartbreak Her marriage to Brad Pitt, which lasted from 2000 to 2005, ended when the actor left her for Angelina Jolie. Then Aniston dated Vince Vaughn, with whom she co-starred in the movie The Break-Up, and musician John Mayer. In February of this year, after two and a half years of marriage and seven years of relationship, she announced that she had separated from Justin Theroux.
Tired of the paparzzi. In 2016, the actress published a harsh column in The Huffington Post in which she expressed being enraged at the press for inventing pregnancies all the time. "I am not pregnant. What I am is fed up (...) We do not need to be married or be mothers to be complete," she wrote in her release.
