Jennifer Aniston is notoriously quiet about her relationships, but in the new issue of Vogue, the former 'Friends' star opens up about her love life, past and present.
In response to an interview Angelina Jolie gave about falling in love with her ex-husband Brad Pitt while they were still married, Jen defends herself, Usmagazine.com reports.
"There was stuff printed there that was definitely from a time when I was unaware that it was happening. I felt those details were a little inappropriate to discuss," she tells Vogue.
"That stuff about how she couldn't wait to get to work every day? That was really uncool," she adds.
Aniston reveals, however, that she and Pitt "had an amicable split" and she and the actor have shared "a few very kind hellos ... and congratulations on your babies."
Aniston even talks about her on-again, off-again romance with John Mayer.
"People need to mind their own business! Did you ever think Claudia Schiffer and David Copperfield made sense? Love just shows up," she claims.
One thing is for certain. You won't see Mayer bragging about dumping her anymore.
"Trust me, you'll never see that happen again from that man."
Hilary Duff's new single 'Reach Out' borrows liberally from the '80s pop song 'Personal Jesus' by Depeche Mode - yet none of its three songwriters has any connection to the British band. How much can a new song lift from an old classic before it becomes less homage... and more theft?
LONDON (Oct. 29) - The BBC indefinitely suspended two of its most popular broadcasters, Russell Brand and Jonathan Ross, on Wednesday for leaving a series of lewd phone messages on an actor's answering machine.
The prank calls to 78-year-old Andrew Sachs, played on state-funded BBC radio, have sparked condemnation in Parliament and an investigation by Britain's media regulator.
The calls were broadcast Oct. 18 on Brand's national radio show and have drawn more than 18,000 complaints. In the messages Ross jokingly claimed Brand had slept with the granddaughter of Sachs, best known for playing Spanish waiter Manuel in 1970s sitcom "Fawlty Towers."
Brand and Ross have apologized, but even Prime Minister Gordon Brown was among those who said the calls were unacceptable.
On Wednesday, the BBC's director general said the pair would be suspended until an investigation was complete.
BBC chief Mark Thompson said he was making a "personal and unreserved apology" for the "completely unacceptable broadcast."
"BBC audiences accept that, in comedy, performers attempt to push the line of taste. However, this is not a marginal case," he said.
"I have decided that it is not appropriate for either Russell Brand or Jonathan Ross to continue broadcasting on the BBC until I have seen the full report of the actions of all concerned."
Ross, 47, and Brand, 33, also have apologized for the calls. But several politicians have called on the BBC to fire the pair, who are among the network's most popular broadcasters.
Brand has a burgeoning U.S. profile thanks to film appearances and a job hosting last month's MTV Video Music Awards. He offended some viewers of the awards show by mocking clean-cut pop act the Jonas Brothers and referring to President George W. Bush as "that retarded cowboy fellow."
Ross hosts a TV talk show, a movie-review program and a weekend radio program. He is one of the BBC's highest-paid personalities. Last year he signed multi-year-multimillion-pound (-dollar) deal with the broadcaster.
Brown said the BBC and regulators had to decide what action to take. "This is clearly inappropriate and unacceptable behavior," the prime minister said Tuesday.
Telecommunications regulator Ofcom said it would investigate whether the calls breached the broadcasting code, which sets standards for fairness and privacy.
Wow, genie pants. Genie pants as designed by Katie Holmes. Oh, that’s no lie:
KATIE DESIGNED THIS AMBIGUOUS GARBAGE.
Is it a one piece? Whatever. Kind of amazing that we can see the bulging of her underwear — those pants just ask that you stare at her expansive pelvic region, which somehow, it seems baboon-sized. Meanwhile, everything on top is sad. So sad. So sag-a-rific. All that Death Becomes Her black lace, boo-hoo.
But it’s sweet of her to design clothes with a man in mind. Those pants are totes the perfect length for Tom, too.
Russell Crowe wasn’t the only one getting jiggy with Leonardo DiCaprio during the “Body of Lies” shoot – his other co-star, Oscar Isaac tried to get cozy with him in the field.
“I guess you could say my character’s maybe secretly in love with Leo’s character, yeah,” Isaac told us. “I think that’s exactly how I played it when I think about it.”
Based on David Ignatius’ 2007 novel, “Body of Lies” features DiCaprio as Roger Ferris, a CIA man in the field in the Middle East trying to lure a car-bombing terrorist out of hiding, and Isaac as Bassam, his translator and ally in Iraq (which was substituted for by shooting in Morocco).
Bassam wins Ferris over by giving him intel, but how did Isaac win over DiCaprio? “That’s easy, he’s a pushover,” Isaac said. “Just play Xbox. Just beat him at some Xbox games.”
Sounds simple, except DiCaprio is pretty much a master gamer – so what are his weaknesses? “I think it depends on the game,” Isaac said. “I’m a good Halo player, and he’s good at all the other ones, so I would say we’re evenly matched.”
“So for the girls,” he advised, “just bone up on your Xbox. It’s a matter of skill. Just mad skill. And then he’s yours.”
Think it’s that easy to score with Leo? Planning to see “Body of Lies”? Or does it look like Ridley Scott’s lost his touch?
