Jennifer Aniston has a movie coming out this week with Gerard Butler, and you know what that means: It’s time for the semi-annual navel gaze.
She commanded the guest couch for both Good Morning America and Regis & Kelly this morning and blah blah blah’d about how hard it is to be the focus of so much media scrutiny:
When asked about the tabloid chatter, Aniston asked “what chatter? I hear about it, I don’t read it. You have to get better over time. You have to… build up a tough skin…. We work really hard on our jobs… you don’t want to be known as sort of a ‘tabloid face.’ That sort of distracts from what you do and what you work really hard at. Which is our movies… It’s almost like another job that you have not chosen to be a part of. It’s a soap opera that you do not sign up for.”
She may want to have a heart-to-heart with her publicist Stephen Huvane, then, because he’s been busting his ass for years to get her on the cover of as many magazines as humanly possible.
And to give credit where credit is due, Perez Hilton gets +1 for calling out Huvane as early as four years ago for all of the behind-the-curtain media orchestrating on behalf his megawatt client. When Aniston and Vince Vaughn walked away from the charade of their relationship in 2006, Huvane sent Perez an email saying he was “being mean” to Aniston in reporting on the break-up.
Perez, naturally, responded publicly:
Huvane orchestrated to have his client on the cover of People in late October, and the headline screamed “Defending Their Love.”
What more, not only did Maniston lie to us and People magazine, but she also lied to Oprah, and that’s much worse!
In mid-October, Jennifer made an appearance on Oprah and she lied to the talk show host and her millions of viewers, saying that she and Vince Vaughn were still together. …
Finally, when it became painfully clear to Mister Huvane and Miz Anitson that they could no longer continue deceiving her “fans,” they turned to their lapdog People magazine this week once again, issuing the following statement on Tuesday night: “AfterJennifer’s trip to London several weeks ago, Jennifer and Vince mutually agreed to end their relationship but continue to be good friends today.”
Just a thought: If Jennifer Aniston really wants to pretend that she did not “sign up for” playing the tabloid role of the aggrieved woman who just can’t find love, taking People magazine off her publicist’s speed dial would be a good first step.

Free tips to those poor celebs who just want to be left alone:
Fire publicist. Quit working in entertainment industry. Move to flyover state. Keep mouth shut.
In the words of Staples: that was easy!
Gerard Butler has a real Zoolander thing going on in that photo.
Hey Gerard. Maybe you should go here…

I dunno, part of me wants to think he’s doing it on purpose as a joke.
Then again, I have ovaries and like men. I’d probably try to justify him wearing a potato sack with a beret on his head while playing the banjo.
I’m with you, Pearce. He’d basically have to be wearing eviscerated kittens before I’d stop justifying.
Loved the anti-duck lips site.
Well, but maybe the kittens were evil and had rabies and tried to kill him.
Her divorce was the best career move she ever did. Without that she would be just another TV actress. She should send the tabloids a thank you card.
In the absence of JROD, I’d take up the slack and hit it. And do it without a duckface.
Aniston is an A-list celebrity with B-list talent. I’ve never seen her in a movie where I thought highly of her; she always appears to me as average. I can’t think of a movie role she’s played that felt like a perfect fit for her, and no one could do as good a job. She should go back to primetime TV. She seemed to fit in just right there.
Hell yeah I’d tap that!
OMG! I jut had a tickle me Elmo moment.
OMG! I just had a tickle me Elmo moment.
And yet, still never insane enough to wear a vial of blood around her neck or marry Billy Bob [after breaking up that relationship as well.]
Says a lot.
I was at Home Depot yesterday and saw her on the cover of Architectural Digest, for godsakes!

When Deceiver is RESPONSIBLE enough to call Aniston and Huvane out for their Oscar-worthy LYING, by all means try to divert attention to Jolie. Jolie has NOTHING to do with this discussion. It is about Aniston, the biggest LIAR and FRAUD in Hollywood. In February, she proved just how LOW she will sink for a little PR. On Feb. 2 Huvane issued a press release CLAIMING Aniston would host a Hatian fundraiser in her home later that month. They got a lot of front-page press about that.
Well, it is now almost APRIL and we never heard another word about it. Why? Because like everything that comes out of their mouths, it was a FABRICATION. She is a FRAUD. She craves constant press because she knows her career is quickly sliding into oblivion. You know you are in trouble when the studio brings in Heidi — that’s HEIDI!!!!! — to try to pump up audience interest in your FAILED career. Thanks Deceiver, for telling the public what everyone in the industry has known for years..
