Aniston vs. Wild Headlines
When Jennifer Aniston graced the "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" stage, audiences knew they were in for a treat. But no one was prepared for the rollercoaster of revelations that followed. Presented with an August edition of InTouch magazine, Aniston was quick to laugh off a cover story suggesting a close bond with Barack Obama.
After the audience erupted into laughter over the outlet’s baseless claim that the actress had developed a close friendship with the former president, Aniston called out the story to be false.
"Of all the calls you get from your publicist where you’re just like, ‘oh no, what’s it going to be?’, or the email saying, ‘some cheesy tabloid is going to make up a story’… and then it’s that. I was not mad at it,” she quipped.
"Absolutely untrue," she declared, noting her much stronger connection to Michelle Obama. But that was just the beginning!
Aniston didn't hold back, dismissing the ludicrous claim of a $4,000 anti-aging water filter for her dogs and denying any black belt status in jujitsu. But it wasn't all denials. The actress confessed to some of the more out-there truths about her life, including indulging in salmon sperm facials and the peculiar habit of traveling with jars of olives.
Perhaps the most jaw-dropping admissions involved a fan approaching Aniston for a selfie while nude in a sauna and the peculiar keepsake of her late therapist's ashes in a zip-loc bag.
"That's a little true... I'm going to sound like I really need a therapist after this," she joked, touching on a blend of humor and sincerity that only Aniston can deliver.
“I have my therapist[‘s ashes] in a bag. She thought of me sort of like a daughter, and I thought of her sort of like a mom. I went to her funeral. They split her up into little Ziploc bags they handed out like party favors,” she told the outlet at the time.
Aniston shut down rumors that she installed a “$4,000 anti-aging water filter” for her dogs in her home, and a claim that she boasted a “black belt in jujitsu.” However, she did come clean about a few other outlandish headlines that turned out to be true.
Among those, the actress admitted to enjoy a salmon sperm facial, traveling abroad with jars of olives, and being approached for a selfie by a fan while nude at a sauna.
Adding a personal touch to her revelations, Aniston shared her childhood trauma of being made to belly dance for her Greek relatives every Christmas Eve. A tradition that, while anxiety-inducing, paints a picture of the familial and cultural expectations she navigated.
