Other People on Jen
- in alphabetical order, sorted by last name
Mandy Ingber said:
"Success has changed her for the better. I think she has become more connected to her internal self. All the hype that's put out there has forced her to go inward, to look at herself and say, 'What do I want?' - not just, 'What do all the other people think I am?' It always comes down to 'Who am I?' - without this career, without this man. Once you get everything you've dreamed of having, you're once again left with yourself, and it's like an identity thing. Having what you want is almost as much of a question-raiser as not getting what you want. Jennifer's journey is bigger than just being an actress."
Steve Ireland (Mr. Zelner on Friends) said:
"I had to do most of my scenes with Jennifer Aniston. Am I a lucky guy or what? When we were doing 'The One With Rachel's Inadvertent Kiss', I left my script out on the table at home and my wife flipped through it during breakfast. I come in and she says 'Wait, what is this? Jennifer Aniston touches your crotch?', I said, 'Oh no honey, it's uh, all camera angles and special effects.' (I don't think she bought it.)"
Jason Isaacs said:
"I found it odd because I was so familiar with her. Like the whole of America I felt like I knew her really well. And suddenly there was this girl sitting next to me who is actually doing the scene rather beautifully, being a fabulous actress and it took me a little while to get over the fact that I don't know her well at all. I never met her before. But you feel so intimate with people you've seen on television before."
Richard Jenkins (father in Rumor Has It) said:
"She has such a big heart. When you meet her , you think, 'I bet when you're her friend, you're always her friend.'"
Stephen Jenkins (co-star in Rockstar) said:
"I think Jennifer is a really cool girl and I liked working with her a lot."
Angelina Jolie said:
"We've, like, passed each other and said 'hi' briefly, shook hands. But not a real sit-down-and-talk kind of meeting."
Dylan Jones (editor of GQ magazine) said:
"Jennifer is the ultimate girl next door - the one woman every man wishes would call round asking for a cup of sugar."
Mike Judge (director of Office Space) said:
"Demi Moore was kind of that way as well (enjoying to play with the fart machine). I guess when you're America's darling, it's a nice release, that kind of humor."
Martha Kauffman said:
"There is this proverb that says: 'God doesn't give with two hands.' But with Jennifer, he gave with three hands."
"We didn't see a Rachel at all, until Jennifer walked in. Then it was amazing because there Rachel was. Jennifer just had this incredible ability to play such a brat and make you love her anyway."
Catherine Keener said:
"I know Frances, so that was thrilling, and I know Jen, and that was thrilling. But Joan, I've never crossed into actually knowing her. I've just completely admired her, so that was really exciting for me, to hang out with Joan, just because she was the new different one, and there's no one really like her. But there's no one really like any of them, I guess. I mean, who's like Frances McDormand? Who's like Jennifer Aniston?"
"Oh, I love her in [Friends with Money]. I think there's such a poignancy in her. You just knew that person. She just was that, all the time. It was sort of effortless, graceful. I always love her, but this was a different part for her. It was great to see."
"It bothers me probably more than it bothers her. She's so gracious and just a pro at it, and it's just like, ah, swat it to the ground. I, on the other hand, have to jump down people's throats and tell them to behave. I think it's just feeding the beast and they just keep doing it, and it's ridiculous. Everyone should raise the bar a little bit on themselves." - on her (Keener's) impatience with reporters grilling Jennifer about her personal life
"You know she's a good cleaner! She is, I'm telling you! She is, she's lovely she's very much of a care-giver you know kind of person."
Kris Kristofferson said:
"I have so much respect for Jennifer as an actress; it's very easy for me to take direction from her. I think I'll get more work if there are more women directors."
"What I really like about [Jennifer] is that she knows what she wants. And ... she's not afraid to tell an old guy like me what to do and how to do it."
"I just wanted to meet Jennifer Aniston, because I've always been a big fan of that TV series of hers."
Lisa Kudrow said:
"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."
"Jennifer is way more spiritual than me. Sometimes I think she would have been a great Phoebe."
"There was this backlash after our second yea on the show. We were overexposed. We weren't used to being actors who had choices. We did a Diet Coke commercial, as a group, because the studio wanted us to do it, and Jennifer was the lone voice saying, 'I don't think we should do that,' she has good instincts, because after that there was nothing but negative press, pitting us against each other, in terms of who was getting what movies and so on. We all got slammed, but we talk about everything, especially us girls, and we work through those things."
"She's very emotional, spiritual, loving and supportive, whatever you say, she's going to find a way to support you with it."
"['The Rachel' haircut] is a great haircut. But most women just don't wear it as well as Jennifer. They can cut it however they want, but they still won't be her."
"No one [plays with the fart machine] as well as she can. [And] it's a huge compliment. It's funny when she does it, because it doesn't seem very sophmoric - it seems very sophisticated. Because she's so subtle. It's fun to watch her go through her array of embarassments."
"Jennifer is all about love. Whatever you're doing, whatever you're wearing, she loves it. If you hate your dress, she'll say, 'But wow, look at your hair!' She's good through and through, and that comes out."
"She's just a good person and she has a huge heart."
"No matter what's going on, she is always tuned to you."
Ashton Kutcher said:
"The last tine I was single I wasn't famous. I had Jennifer Aniston as my screensaver, the Rolling Stone magazine picture where she was naked. And I know that, at that point in time, if I would have met her, I wouldn't have even thought twice about who she really was. I thought I knew who she was just from her image. So I could see how people could see me as some image."
"I've never even seen her and I still have a thousand-dollar bet going with somebody that someday I'll get a date with her, which is kind of a moo point now. "
"I'll never have to pay that bet off. I'll go to my death saying I'm going to take out Jennifer Aniston."
