Poor Jen! As though being single wasn't tragic enough, Jennifer Aniston has had one helluva week, being attacked by, on the one side, Fox News's swivel-eyed Bill O'Reilly, and, on the other, Barbra Streisand. Jesus, it's almost as bad as being single. Hey, did we mention that Jennifer Aniston is single?
O'Reilly exclusively announced that, alongside Obama, New York and socialised healthcare, Aniston is "destructive to our society". No, she was not caught with bombs strapped beneath her Donna Karan beige sheath dress; she dared to say "women don't have to settle with a man just to have a child."
Bill! Don't you ever read People? Poor Jen's been trying to "get a man" for years. For God's sake, save American values and, most of all, save Jen from singledom by giving her a call!
To help pass the time until she becomes Jen O'Reilly, Aniston, for reasons that remain opaque, posed for photos in the style of Barbra Streisand for a fashion mag. Was Barbra-with-two-A's happy? Um, kinda. "I was very flattered that Jennifer Aniston chose to interpret my style . . . If only she had a bump on her nose," said Babs.
I have a lot of time for Barbra. There's just something about a generously nosed Jewish girl from New York who sees nothing implausible about storylines in which Robert Redford and Nick Nolte fall madly in love with her that appeals to this faction of LiS. And now I have a lot more time for her with this reference to the fact that at the beginning of her career Aniston had her nose "fixed", although Barbra and I prefer the word "ruined".
