Quotes about Jennifer:
Clive Owen:
“No one has seen her do this kind of part before, and it was a very smart
choice to book Jennifer in. The bottom line is, she's a really classy
actress—incredibly smart and sensitive. She was just hugely refreshing,
completely unstarry, completely uncomplicated. There was no fuss. With big stars
you never know quite what to expect. But for somebody who's lived under the
spotlight for so long, she's incredibly sorted out and grounded. That was
inspiring—that you can be a real human being. It takes an enormous amount of
intelligence to keep rooted amidst that glare.”

Paul Rudd:
“I'm in the makeup trailer this morning. And all the women were talking about
how much they love Jennifer Aniston. They don't know her! But they do love her.
People have the nerve to walk up and ask the most personal questions. The
biggest testament to Jen is that she doesn't make them feel stupid for asking.
She graciously responds.”

Rob Reiner: “You're not going to be able to type her easily. She has the
same range as, say, Meg Ryan, who can do light, deft comedy and then turn around
and do In the Cut.”
Ben Stiller:
"The Great Catch of All Time"
“Her personality is so wholesome, which is part of her appeal, but she's
beautiful too.”
“It was kind of traumatic for me (doing the nude scene in ‘Along came Polly’),
but Jennifer was great. She was very supportive and looked straight ahead while
holding my hand as we walked off down the beach together.”
”If you spend five minutes with Jennifer, you get that she's funny, beautiful,
charming, sweet - all of those things. The sense you get from watching her work
is really who she is. It's a great combination: a woman with a great sense of
humor who also is attractive. She's also normal while living a life where it's
not that easy to have a normal life. I give her credit for that, because it's
harder to do that with all the attention that's paid to her and Brad (Pitt) as a
couple and what they have to deal with. It's crazy. It's easy for people to lose
it. Under the circumstances, she's pretty grounded.”
"She's the best. There's no sweeter, warmer, funnier, more talented actress out
there."
Vince Vaughn:
"[Jen has] extreme emotionall intelligence. But she chooses to use her gifts
to make people feel good. She chooses to be kind."
“The thing with Jen is, she's so easy to feel drawn to. She's so genuine and
warm, and she has a lightness, a classy ease about it all. You can see why
people are so enamored. It's like she's stuffed with Elvis dust. Little kids see
her and they don't know she's famous, and they just gravitate to her, they hang
on her.”
Brad Pitt:
"You want me to say Greek women are better than other women? Very dangerous
-- good at home, bad out here."
"No, no, we've got a taboo on that, she can't tell me. I like the show." About
Friends- finale
“Jen and I both wanted privacy, but we also wanted to be outside. Jen finally
said, `Look, if they get the picture, they get it. Don`t forget what the day is
about.` She was right. It was one of the coolest things I’ve ever been to.” – on
their wedding
“I love my wife but the waiting of our first baby drives me nuts. When I ask,
`Jen, when are we having our first kid?` she always says, `Soon.' "
“I like girls like my wife. She's funny, she's a pain, and she makes me laugh.
She's not the greatest at sports, but she still tries, which makes me laugh
more. She gets on my nerves and I get on her nerves and then she makes me laugh
again. She's got a lot of personality.”
“We bicker over household chores and who forgot to turn off the coffee machine.
I believe I’m the one who does it all, and she believes she’s the one who does
it all.”
“We talk about it all the time. I on to it, don’t worry. I think FRIENDS is
hilarious. I will be sad when that show goes off air. But I cannot wait for
everyone else to see things she can do, because that show is just one facet of
her talent.”
“Jen gets a lot done when she’s asleep. She’ll , like – I think you’ve heard
this story, I caught her outside one night. The alarm was going off, and I found
her outside – literally, she had to negotiate through, like, three or four
rooms, and I find her standing outside. We were living on the cliff that time.
It was not good. She speaks a lot too, when she sleeps. Yeah, we’ve had some of
our best conversations. Really moving. But my favourite one was a few years
back, and I’m laying there, and it’s deathly silent. I can’t sleep. She’s
sleeping peacefully, and all of a sudden, I hear, `bring on the young men in the
uniform!`. That cracked me up.”
“Jen is one of the warmest people I met, we all crowd around her. She’s like
that fire we all crowd around for warmth. There’s not an ill-intentioned bone in
that woman’s body. She’s really extraordinary that way. She brings people
together.”
“That house that we got – it’s big. It’s so big I come home and I lose Jen. I
can’t find her. I’ll come home and I’ll go, `Jen! Jen!` I’ll hear this, `I’m
back here, here, here, here.` And there’s two stairwells. So I’ll go up one,
I’ll try to find her. Meanwhile, she’s trying to find me. So we’ll end up like,
for five minutes like, chase - `Where?` `I’m back here, here, here,` chasing
her, and then we’ll meet up somewhere in the middle.”
“My wife loves jewellery, and I love my wife. She’s always my inspiration. I
started doing this because I wanted to make something special for her.”
John Hamburg (writer and director of Polly): “It’s a pretty big
departure for her. She plays this wild woman who draws Ben Stiller out of his
shell – someone who’s very loose, which is not the way Rachel is at all. I mean,
I'm not asking Jennifer to wear a prosthetic nose or anything, but it’s very
different, and she's very conscious of that. I remember when she first came to
the set, she said, `If you feel like I start doing a Rachel thing, just tell me,
okay.`”
Kathy Nijimy (good friend and actress): “You go through a lot of
different relationships with friends, but never was I absolutely positive like I
was with Brad. I saw how much he loved her. I went home and I was weepy about
it. She was 100 percent herself with him, and that’s all I really wish for my
friends.”
“Her clothes are the exact same. Her T-Shirts, her little tank tops, her cargo
pants and her flip- flops.”
Jason Flemyng: “She’s a female Brad. Couldn’t be more gorgeous, yet
utterly without vanity. They took me out a few times in L.A. and, this will
sound strange but it was so nice to be around such normal people. We just ate
Mexican food and talked nonsense.”
Nancy Aniston: “Through an agreement I had made with the producers of the
show, the interview was to be restricted to the Waldorf Method Of Teaching (the
system that had educated Jennifer), it was not to be bout my celebrity
daughter!” (they cut out all the scenes that where about the school and only
showed those ones with the comments about Jen) “I was livid. [When Jen called to
say that she’ll never forgive me] Jen’s voice was so distorted with rage I
didn’t recognize it. I knew on some level that I had lost Jennifer forever…”
(September 1999)
Quotes on Jennifer by her co-stars on Friends:
Courteney Cox, Monica on Friends:
"That girl cuts up just as much as the rest of us. She is very fun and she's
goofy, and she is just a doll."
“Sometimes I can’t believe that we’ll spend the whole day at work and then,
let’s say, we get out of work a little early and there’s time to go get
something to eat – and we’ll actually do that! I say, `We should split up, go
somewhere else, see some other people.` But we don`t. It’s pathetic. I know.”
“Jennifer can be a little distracted. Like her Character (Rachel). But she's so
warm and funny. It’s impossible not to like this girl.”
“She's one of the most loving, caring people I know. No matter what’s going on
with me, I know I can talk to her, and she would never judge.”
“Jennifer is going to be an amazing mom. She has a huge, huge heart. You never
have to wonder where you stand with her. She's completely loyal. Even if she
disagrees with you, she stands behind you. I think all those things will make
her a great mom. They sure make her a great friend. I love, love, love her."
"Jennifer is an amazing actress, and I love her so much. She is such a real
person, and she has so much talent its unbelievable. Watching her play the
dramatic parts on Friends and in other roles, and then doing the comedy in such
an ethereal way, it’s just fantastic. She's like my sister. I adore that girl.
She's my friend for life."
"I was so jealous when I went to her house once and she was actually watching
the sunset. She has a beautiful rose garden, and she takes things in. I'm too
busy puttering and moving around. She has an amazing love of life."
"I love her so much I can't see straight. I'm very proud of her. She's one of my
favorite people in the whole world, and always will be. One of my best friends."
Lisa Kudrow, Phoebe on Friends:
"Jennifer is way more spiritual than me. Sometimes I think she would have been a
great Phoebe."
“Jennifer is just one big throbbing heart to me. Because she's all emotional and
feeling and support. She's right there with you. Even if you came to her and
said: `I’ve accidentally killed someone.` She’d say, `Honey, it’s not your
fault. It couldn’t have been your fault.` Just that kind of loyal, unconditional
support and love is just who she is to me.”
“She's very emotional, spiritual, loving and supportive, whatever you say, she's
going to find a way to support you with it.”
“Jennifer’s a lot more peaceful now, like a woman who’s in a good relationship.
There’s not a lot to talk about because there are no problems. They’ve both
light-years ahead of themselves. You know how your grandparents have a certain
perspective about life? They’ve got that now.” - on Jen and Brad
David Schwimmer, Ross on Friends:
“Jen is… she amazes me, she's generous. A warm, warm person. Just always puts
the other person first and I think it’s a gift.”
“I believe Jen to be one of the finest comediennes ever, her timing, her
instincts are so, so good, and so on the money. She has this rare combination:
not many girls that attractive are that funny and have that much heart. She's
got the emotional life underneath it to match the funny. And she's adorable.
It's a triple threat and an honour to have worked with her"
"She's amazing. I really compare her to Lucille Ball - one of the best
comediennes of all time."
Matt le Blanc, Joey on Friends:
“Jen is one big giant heart. Over the last couple of seasons, I’ve had the
pleasure of really working close with Jen. And she's so alive on stage and she
really works from the heart and is really sensitive and really has a great work
ethic and is just dynamite.”
“Jen doesn’t like to overwork things. She has a real fresh loose-cannon-y thing
about her that’s real exciting to work with.”
“Jen is a just a big heart with hands and feet.”
Matthew Perry, Chandler on Friends:
"She has an intelligent sexiness about her. She's not making that much effort,
and that’s what women appreciate."
"Let’s just say you want to think twice before getting into a car with her." -
on Jennifer's crazy driving
"I was inspired by Jennifer's wedding. It was the most romantic night of my
life, and I wasn't even getting married."
