Jennifer Aniston looks flawless in a backless dress on the cover of Harper’s Bazaar December/January issue. In the accompanying interview, the actress slammed the media for making up stories about how unhappy she is. She said:
“I think people are starting to feel like, ‘Are we that stupid?’ It’s like how many times can Deidre Hall die on ‘Days of Our Lives’ and they bring her back to life? Eventually they’re going to be like, ‘Guys, she can’t do that! She can’t die and come back to life and now she’s possessed.’ Seriously. How many times can I be out there in the world, enjoying my life, and yet the narrative is ‘Poor, Sorry, Sad in Love Jen’… whatever the stupid headline is”
Jennifer said she doesn’t hold grudges.
“[I'm] a forgiving person. I absolutely am. I think it’s extremely important to forgive. Otherwise it just builds up like toxic waste. There’s nothing worse than holding a grudge. Listen, people can do unforgivable things, but you have to let it go and say, ‘Look, we’re all human beings. We make mistakes.’ To hold any kind of resentment is like taking rat poison and waiting for the rat to die,” she said.
She also gushed about her fiancé Justin Theroux.
“Not only is he a great actor but he’s one of the best comedy writers out there. And he directs and paints murals. And I just think it’s so attractive to be that good at so many things and to have no ego. He’s one of the most humble, decent human beings. He's not an a**. He's not like some of our friends who are young and up-and-coming and they hit celebrity, and all of a sudden you're like, 'Oh! You're different. Now you don't say hi to people?' It’s almost impossible to get bored with one another. We’ve tried so hard! And even that’s interesting because his eyes are so pretty, but we can entertain ourselves and talk about endless things, which is pretty great,” she said.
On being content with aging, she said:
“I’ve had more fun post-40 than I can remember. From a work point of view, a physical point of view, a psychotherapeutic point of view. It really helped me get to a place where I was more comfortable with myself, truly ready for love and for a partner. The past wasn't 'less than.' It was extremely important to my growth as a woman."
