Jen finally speaks out!

I really feel bad for her. Its bad enough to break up with someone but when the whold world knows and give their opinion on it, that has to be tough.
I knew she would be upset about the W magazine spread, who wouldn't?



Aniston Was 'Shocked' by Pitt-Jolie Pics
Tuesday August 2 10:43 AM ET

In her first interview since splitting with Brad Pitt, Jennifer Aniston says she was "shocked" by the breakup and is trying to "pick up the pieces in the midst of this media circus."

Aniston broke down twice during the interview for the September issue of Vanity Fair, on newsstands nationally Aug. 9. Mostly, though, the actress comes across as resilient.

"Am I lonely? Yes. Am I upset? Yes. Am I confused? Yes. Do I have my days when I've thrown a little pity party for myself? Absolutely. But I'm also doing really well."

Holed up in her Malibu, Calif., bungalow, the 36-year-old actress says the media coverage and tabloid rumors have been hard to deal with especially reports that she didn't want to start a family.

"A man divorcing would never be accused of choosing career over children," she says. "I've never in my life said I didn't want children. I did and I do and I will!"

Aniston filed for divorce in March, citing irreconcilable differences after 4 1/2 years of marriage. The couple separated in January.

Aniston says she was aware of Pitt's attraction to Angelina Jolie, his "Mr. and Mrs. Smith" co-star, but doesn't blame their split on her.

"It's just complicated," Aniston says. "There are all these levels of growth and when you stop growing together, that's when the problems happen."

But when pictures showing Pitt and Jolie together with her 3-year-old son, Maddox, on a beach in Africa were published, the former "Friends" star says, "the world was shocked and I was shocked."

She was also hurt by a fashion spread in W magazine a concept of Pitt's that showed the actor and Jolie as a 1960's-style married couple.

"There's a sensitivity chip that's missing," Aniston says of Pitt.

Says Aniston: "I just don't know what happened. ... I feel as if I'm trying to scrounge around and pick up the pieces in the midst of this media circus."

Otherwise refusing to talk badly of Pitt, the actress says she doesn't want to mimic the bitterness of her parents' divorce.

"I love Brad; I really love him. I will love him for the rest of my life," says Aniston. "I don't regret any of it, and I'm not going to beat myself up about it."

"The sad thing, for me, is the way it's been reduced to a Hollywood cliche or maybe it's just a human cliche."

Another false report, Aniston says, is her relationship with Vince Vaughn, her co-star in the upcoming movie "The Break Up"

"I like a lot of people, but I'm sooo not `in like' with anybody."

Aniston also hasn't lost her sense of humor. On Pitt's recently dyed blond hair, she says, "Billy Idol called he wants his look back."

Wow - thanks for posting this.  I can't believe she finally spoke out about it, and she didn't beat around the bush the way Pitt has in his interviews.  She was hurt and he obviously betrayed her.  I was surprised that she actually made a comment directly toward Brad about him missing a sensitivity chip.  Not because I don't agree w/her, but more because neither of them have been so honest up until now.  I do feel bad for her, and I have to say, I don't like Pitt as much as I used to after all this, but I think she's a strong woman and I like her even more for that.

I respect Jennifer Aniston so much already, even more now.


Brad definitely cheated, now we know. Emotional cheating is still cheating and it is so painful.  Remember Angelina supposedly being quoted denying any cheating and saying that she was only "a shoulder to cry on?" what BS!!  Married people aren't supposed to be sharing things they aren't sharing with their spouse to other people.....but especially someone they could be attracted to, that becomes emotional cheating, and according to the Today show just yesterday, it is JUST as damaging to marriages as regular physical cheating. 


Shame on Brad for his unloyalty and disrespect to his marriage! Now that it's out there straight from Jen's mouth, I am pretty annoyed with Brad and Angelina.  If Jen and Brad were destined to break up, he should have taken care of it with dignity and consideration, without the little "friendship" in between with Angelina, what a cad!


But, I do think Brangelina is a hot couple.

I love Jennifer Aniston! And after this interview, I love her even more.  Despite an obvious betrayal and complete devastation, she is still remaining classy.  But even more, she's HONEST! Like shopchicago33 said, she isn't beating around the bush and I like that. It's refreshing to have a Hollywood star stay so real and down to earth.


As for Brad, he disgusts me.  Just b/c things aren't perfect with your spouse, doesn't mean it's okay to cheat with a co-worker! Ew! He's fallen a few pegs on my like-o-meter.

I KNOW lorelei! at least not things about their marriage to someone of the opposite sex who's also HOT. I was so disgusted when I heard that quote from her. you'd think someone who's been married before (twice) would know what an idiotic and BS thing that was to say.

I read something else about this article and I think the "sensitivity chip" comment came in response to the question: "is he trying to hurt you?" and she said no she didn't think so but he just had a "sensitivity chip" missing. She was actually defending him, saying he wouldn't intentionally hurt her, he just didn't know what he was doing, which makes sense. He is a guy after all.

Here's another version of the article in a local newspaper today.


 


Lonely Aniston speaks out about Pitt



August 3, 2005







Look out, Brad Pitt! Jennifer Aniston has given her first interview since her January separation from her husband of 4 1/2 years.


As the Rolling Stones put it, let it bleed.


In September's Vanity Fair magazine, the former "Friends" star spills as follows: "Am I lonely? Yes. Am I upset? Yes. Am I confused? Yes. Do I have my days when I've thrown a little pity party for myself? Absolutely. But I'm also doing really well."


Aniston, who filed for divorce in March, speaks out about erroneous reports claiming she didn't want to start a family with Pitt. "I've never in my life said I didn't want to have children," she said. "I did, and I do, and I will!"


Those pictures of Pitt and new love Angelina Jolie frolicking?


Aniston offers: "I'd be a robot if I said I didn't feel moments of anger, of hurt, of embarrassment." As for the shots of Pitt and Jolie playing with her son, Maddox, "I can't say it was one of the highlights of my year."


Aniston, who says she had bought Pitt's claim that he remained faithful to her, now says: "I just don't know what happened. ... There's a sensitivity chip that's missing (from Pitt). ... He makes his choices. He can do -- whatever. We're (about to be) divorced, and you can see why."


Unable to resist taking a swipe at Pitt's recently peroxide-enhanced scalp, Aniston snaps: "Billy Idol called -- he wants his look back."


And yet, she proclaims, "I love Brad. ... I will love him for the rest of my life. He's a fantastic man. ... I really do hope that someday we can be friends again."

Add me to the list of Aniston admirers - even more so after this.  I'm glad she's finally feeling strong enough to set the record straight, and that she did so with a sense of humor and grace.


I think she definitely comes out on top in this situation.


Pssssshaaaaaaw to Brandgelina!!!!!  Harumph!
