How Jennifer Aniston Has Gotten To Be The Most Loved Actress In Hollywood (And Not Just By Brad Pitt)
She turns 51 in the BEST moment of her life. And not just because of what you believe.
She became a television icon in the 90s thanks to the Friends series and today, on the day Jennifer Aniston turns 51, we can say that she enjoys ONE of the best moments of her life. Her path has not been easy since Jen has had to see how half the world felt sorry for her when Brad Pitt left her for Angelina Jolie or how Rachel Green syndrome persecuted her to unsuspected extremes. But she has managed to get ahead, reinvent herself and become one of the most beloved stars in Hollywood. For this reason, at Glamor we want to remember the FIVE decisions that have led her to be a true queen and without forgetting her strategy of approaching Brad Pitt and that continues to bear fruit: after the MOMENTAZO of the SAGs, we found out that the actress " returned "to meet with the winner of the Oscar for best supporting actor at one of the parties that took place in Hollywood after the ceremony. Of course, this time without cameras. Bravo for Jen!
1: Play Alex Levy on the series The morning show:
We are talking about a super character, that of the presenter of a morning show on one of the most important North American television networks in the country and that changes completely when her partner is fired after being accused of sexual harassment. Her portrayal of Alex Levy is so good that Jennifer Aniston won the SAG a few weeks ago for best actress over heavyweights like Helena Bonham Carter or Olivia Colman. During her speech, the actress spoke of how grateful she felt to the creators of the series for having made them play "such ugly, complex, and yet beautifully human characters and for forcing us to inquire into our own experiences and what they have done to seven months of therapy are worth it. " If you haven't seen it yet, The morning show is available on Apple TV.
2: Claiming yourself as an independent and happy woman ... even if you don't have a partner
For a long time Jennifer was considered "America's suffering sweetheart", something like "America's unhappy girlfriend", especially after her divorce from Brad Pitt. After several relationships, including with Vince Vaughn, with whom she co-starred in the film The Break-Up, and later with the musician John Mayer, the actress met another of the men in her life, Justin Theroux, with whom, after two years and a half of marriage and seven of relationship, announced their separation in February 2018. But Jen, instead of making a drama of it, opted for a positive and exemplary attitude. "I do not feel empty. My marriages have been very successful and when they came to an end, it was a decision made because we chose to be happy. At the end of the day, this is our only life and I would not stay in a situation just out of fear, for fear of being alone, fear of not being able to survive. Continuing in a marriage only out of fear is like belittling your life, "she explained in an interview.
3: Always say what you think ... without worrying about what they will say
In 2016 she wrote a column in The Huffington Post in which she said that she was fed up with the press continually making up that she was pregnant. "We do not need to be married or be mothers to be complete", were some of the sentences we were able to read. For a long time, and while she was married to Justin Theroux, it was speculated that the actress was going to have a child thanks to a surrogate belly and in the same clinic that celebrities such as Nicole Kidman or Ricky Martin attended. Jennifer returned to the charge and fed up with the pressures, she was very clear about it. "Having a child is not a matter that matters to anyone, except the couple or the individual who decided it. A woman can be happy and feel complete without being married or without being a mother." Another display of her freedom was her when she won the SAG. Aniston surprised everyone with a satin dress without a bra where she winked to her stage in her Friends and that became a lesson in body positive. And, of course, a lesson in courage when it comes to showing off her body without complexes of her at 50 years of age.
4: Turn everything you do, say or wear into GOLD
Ever since she became famous in the 90s with her character as Rachel Green on Friends, Jennifer Aniston's style has always been the object of desire. When she met Brad Pitt, he gave us unforgettable outfits, like when they attended the 51st edition of the Emmy Awards and the actress opted for a striking dress in gold and brown tones composed of a beaded bodice and a plain skirt, by Randolph Duke. Her chosen hairstyle also attracted attention as it varied a lot from her straight hair to which she was accustomed. Nor can we forget that her name is repeated in the lists of millionaires in magazines such as Forbes or The Hollywood Reporter, Rolling Stone awarded her as "the best hair in the United States", and the influential People as "the most beautiful woman in the world." Can you ask for more?
5: Always surround yourself with your GREAT FRIENDS
When Jennifer decided to open her account on Instagram (@jenniferaniston) the first photo she published of her was with her classmates on the Friends series and with which she quickly achieved millions of likes and comments. And it is that, during these years, Aniston has maintained an excellent relationship with all of her former colleagues from her series, especially with Courtney Cox, with whom it is common to see her in California or on vacation. In fact, she is the godmother of Coco, the only daughter of the actress, born in June 2004 from her relationship with fellow actor David Arquette, and was one of her main supports when she divorced in 2005 from Brad Pitt. A sample of this good harmony is that HBO Max announced that all the members of Friends are going to join together again for a special reunion. And we are counting the hours until THAT moment arrives.
