When Jennifer Aniston and Justin Theroux started dating, Jen's people really tried hard to make it seem like that even though Justin and his girlfriend of 14 years were living together that the relationship was over. You know, so Jen did not lose all that sympathy she got when Brad Pitt cheated on her with Angelina Jolie. According to In Touch though, Justin was still very much an item with his girlfriend and lied to her about Jen and their future and when Jen came a knockin', Justin said buh bye to Heidi Bivens, ending the 14 year relationship.
I am not saying that Justin is guiltless. He is equally responsible. I just find it so fitting that Jen has made a living off being victimized by Angelina and Brad and now she has assumed that same role. Call it what you want, but Justin was living with his girlfriend, everything was good, and then he goes to the set one day, meets Jen and it all goes downhill from there. So, what Jen says caused her so much pain she did to another. It makes her much less sympathetic and kind of takes that shine off the Miss Sweetheart role she loves.
Some mag needs to blow this story up so hopefully we can finally be rid of this chick, so over her.
ReplyDeleteYeah, cus men never lie and say their relationship is over when looking to hook-up with a beautiful girl. Jen is only guilty of being stupid enough to believe it. HE is the jerk in this picture.
ReplyDeleteCindy...Yup, he probably said it was all over but he just hadn't made the final move...
ReplyDeleteBut when he saw Jen and her $$$$$ calling he had no problem making that move...sold to the highest bidder.

ReplyDeleteI don't think jen is equally responsible...who knows what he told her. When a man cheats on his partner, he and he alone is the cheater. What the other woman does, however, is poop on the sisterhood which is so 'not cool', to borrow a phrase from jen.
ReplyDeleteOh, but it's okay, because it's not as if Justin and Heidi were married or had kids or anything.
ReplyDelete*eyeroll*
Heidi dodged a greasy, gross, hipster bullet, IMO. I also think that she's WAY cuter than Aniston, too, and she'll find herself in a new relationship in no time. I'll bet she's still humiliated, but I think she'll be juuuuuuust fine.
I wish that everyone would get off this "Poor Jen" train and just let her make her own douchey mistakes per usual.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure everything was not fine in his relationship because, if it was, he wouldn't have left his woman for Jen Aniston.
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry, but Justin wasn't married. Brad was. HUGE difference. Justin never made a vow to to his girlfriend of 14 yrs. Brad did to Jennifer. If after 14 years, this guy in his 30's still didn't propose, he was never going to. He wasn't in love, they don't have kids together...oh well. It's the stupid girlfriend who stuck around wasting time waiting.
ReplyDeleteAlso, I agree with Jeannie's Bottle. You don't know what he told Jen. I don't care for Jennifer, but someone doesn't get stolen away from someone, unless they want to be stolen.
He may have told her that the relationship was practically over, that she didn't understand him, yadee yadee. BUT, surely she got some intel on this guy, or at some point figured out that he was still living with his GF? At that point, it became her fault too. She continued to date him, even though she knew he was still living with a guy. Guys: finish up your old business before starting new business. Gals: don't put up with guys who are two-timing a woman. They will do the same thing to you the moment they find someone "better".
ReplyDeleteJennifer....I adore you, despite how you use the tabloids (and you DO use them). I can't help it. But sweetie, you can do sooooo much better than this guy. He's a 6 on your scale of 10, and a zero on the scale of life.
Why are we talking about Jennifer Aniston, who was free to date, and not dissecting Justin Therroux, who was obviously not!
ReplyDeleteWomen, we are gullible. A man says he's not with anyone, and we believe him. For why else would he lie about something this big?
Oh yes. Forgot. For sex on the side without leaving the ol' ball & chain.
Or most often, because he can't leave the ol' Ball & Chain without preparing terrain for a new one.
Can we please criticize Justin for cheating on his longtime LIVE-IN girlfriend? Anyways, a whole lot more than we are doing about Jen.
Wow, his ex is a knockout.
ReplyDeleteThis guy is pretty creepy looking. I don't see the attraction.
ReplyDelete@crila -- Most wedding vows are of a religious (or at least spiritual) nature, and there are *plenty* of us out there who couldn't care less about public proclamations of love and commitment. I don't knock marriage as an institution -- I know plenty of happy husbands and wives, but I know an equal number of people who are just as content and faithful within their longterm relationships.
ReplyDeleteRegardess, in order for ANY relationship to succeed, the common factor is FIDELITY. If Justin was lacking that with Heidi, you really think that he's going to take it seriously when it comes to his relationship with Jen?
If you've shared a home, a bed, expenses, vacations, pets, aspirations, etc. with a person for over a decade, that person is essentially a spouse -- with or without a ring or a certificate. In fact, in my state, Justin and Heidi would been considered common-law spouses a long time ago.
And Jen really shouldn't be shocked when the newest Love of Her Life cheats on HER, because those stripes NEVER change -- vows or no vows.
That dude looks like he has been embalmed and is missing his casket.
ReplyDeleteIf they will cheat with you Jen, they will cheat on you. And it is just a matter of time. His girlfriend has dodged a major bullet and should not have hung around for 14 years! That is just insane.
ReplyDeleteCrila16 gives more value to the short years Brad was with Jen then she does 14 years this couple had. A marriage certificate does not a relationship make, sweetheart.
ReplyDeleteI think this guy is gross...he gives me the creeps.
ReplyDeleteThat poor girl who hung in for 14 years....14 years and she won't even get a settlement...it stinks.
For me no marriage=I don't care. While it might have been a crappy thing for him to do, at least they weren't married. By not being married that leaves a quick exit if someone else comes along. My expectations for a dating relationship are a lot lower than ones for a marriage. While I wouldn't date a guy already dating someone else, If I really liked them, I would let them know I was interested later when they dump the gf. I would never date anyone for 14 years.
ReplyDeleteHere in the land of francophones, 2 people in a relationship living together for over a year, are considered 'Common-Law' couple. Don't know if I'm saying the term correctly, but this means that in the eye of law, they are married, share responsibilities, expenses, and among other things, they are responsible for each other's finances. If this doesn't a marriage makes, I don't know what else.
ReplyDeleteAnd whatever value you give a piece of paper, 14 years with someone, has a lot more value than say 6 or 7.
So yes, in my mind, that Therroux more than cheated on his Common-law wife.
I read several of his past interviews in which he disparaged "Movie Stars" and said that they're not very believable because people know so much about them, what with self-promotion, tabloids, gossip sites, publicists, "sources", etc. He seems a bit hypocritical to me now that he's not so anonymous.
ReplyDeleteDon't know about NYC but where I live 14 years constitutes a legally recognized "common law" marriage.
ReplyDeleteI don't think Jen has played the "poor me" card as much as the tabs have let on. Personally, I never felt sorry for her when she split with Brad. She seems to be having a great time living life. If she wanted a husband and ten kids she'd have 'em.
ReplyDeleteMarried or not, people cheat, or fall out of love, and move on to the next victim.
The matter here is to hold Ms Aniston to her own measure and standard.
ReplyDeletePersonally i believe that the person in the relationship is the one to blame the most. He or she are the ones who spoke about love and / or made promises of life together.
However, what we are talking about here is a lady who has used what happened to her and her influence on the media to depict Angelina Jolie as the whore of babylon [i am not sure Ms Jolie hates the role :P] and it's only fair for her to be judged the exact same way.
I wish George Clooney would marry his ex and have babies with her
ReplyDeleteDon't you have to apply to be common-law, and file your taxes jointly? I didn't think they (the gov) automatically made you common-law.
ReplyDeletewe don't know what he told her and in regard to the double standard of Jolie - she kinda had a history of "steppin in". but we don't know what she was told either. Frankly, at the end of the day, the man who was in the supposedly commited relationship is the one who needs to take the heat.
ReplyDeleteSigh. I'm with Sue Ellen on this one. I don't care about this any more than I care about Angie "stealing" Brad from Jen. My guess is in both cases, those pre-existing relationships were all but done. Then another person comes along and that cements the end of the relationship. I don't think Brad and Angie were jerks and I don't think Jen and Justin are necessarily jerks, either. We don't know what was going on in those relationships and I'm tired of people yelling "homewrecker".
ReplyDeleteWell, unless it's at Leann Rimes ;)
I started thinking this over (slow day) and came back on here to basically say what L said.
ReplyDeleteSo...
Uncool Jen. Very uncool.
btw Sue Ellen - no, you don't have to apply to be common-law here in Canada. My live-in and I file our taxes jointly and I don't know if we'll ever be married.
ReplyDeleteIf this guy was with her for 14 years and never married her he must not have been that into her. I know marriage isn't for everyone and I totally respect that, but if he is already talking marriage with Jen (since you know, tabloids are always truthful) then it is obvious why he left the gf.
ReplyDeleteI think they're faking a relationship to draw more interest Wanderlust. I doubt they'll be together next August.
ReplyDeleteI doubt they'll be together for holidays this year!
ReplyDeleteI honestly can't recall Jen playing the 'woe is me' victim card all that much. The tabloids have portrayed it that way, of course, but Jen has been playing the field and f@cking like one of the boys for years. Looks to me like she said good riddance to bad rubbish (Brad, obviously) and moved on.
ReplyDeleteI don't think it matters whether they were married or not. The fact that they had been a couple for 14 years tells me there was a commitment there, whether it was on paper or not.
ReplyDelete@RQ
ReplyDeleteSo you just have to file jointly and then you're common law? That's it?
(p.s. good to have you back on the scene.)
I have every right to my opinion and other have a right to theirs. I stand my ground and to my beliefs. You walk down that aisle and make a vow before God (has nothing to do with a piece of paper) whether you're with them for 1 year or 20...you made a vow before GOD. End of story. You're dating someone for 14 years, it's sad that you cheated and it's horrible, but there was no vow before God. He's still a scumbag and what he did was wrong, but there was now vow and promise before God.
ReplyDelete@Sue Ellen - yeah, I think so! We just always write "common law" on all relevant forms for banking, taxes, medical and assume that makes it so ;)
ReplyDeleteThanks - was taking some summer vacation time...sigh. But that's all over now.
@crila - but for the sake of argument, what about people who get married by a justice of the peace and no mention of god, but instead they swear to each other?? Is that not as "sacred" a marriage? If I ever get married, I'll make a promise...to my PARTNER, not some deity. And I think that marriage certificate should be just as valid as one where god was involved.
ReplyDeleteHuh. The more you know.
ReplyDelete*shooting star*
In Australia you only have to live together for 6 months to become a de facto couple. They also changed the law so that mistresses are included - so if you are screwing around and that goes on for 6 months or longer your estate can have a claim made against it.
ReplyDeleteI hope Justin's ex moves forward. I have a friend who was cheated on, everybody saw it happening, she was approached by people, I approached the 'other woman' who denied it was happening. Almost 13 years later, my friend is not over the cheating and would take the scumbag back. While I love her, I have lost a lot of respect for her for thinking that is what she deserves.
@crila - not everybody believes in God or any God. If you are religious and expect your beliefs to be respected, then I personally believe that has to be a two-way street and other people's beliefs or non-believing also needs to be respected. My husband and I were committed before we got married, we are no more committed now we are married. I respect the relationships of other people no matter what form it takes. The heart break is the same when someone leaves or dies, whether there is a marriage certificate involved or not.

ReplyDeleteRocketQueen. No argument, and I sorry if you're upset that I disagree with you. You're completely entitled to your own opinion, as I am mine. I personally would never go to a JP to get married, that's my opinion. I feel JP is legal with the state, church is legal with God. I grew up in a very strict Catholic family. If you feel that a JP is just as valid then that's great for you and I'm not discounting your commitment and love for your husband. I also agree with you that any heartache is painful, married or not, but I still stick with my original thought. Justine was not married to his ex. Her heart must be broken, but in my eyes, it's not a sin. He's a creep, but he didn't make a vow before God. I know you disagree with me, but that's ok.
ReplyDeleteJen isn't the sharpest knife in the drawer and I think she is drawn to men she perceives as being cerebral. Justin is from a family of writers and has several screenplays under his belt but yeah, he comes off kinda douchey. Check out his quotes on IMDB. My favorite? "If I was roped into a seven-year TV contract I'd probably hang myself. It's a TV show - selling cars, cereal, soda pop. TV is like that. The shows are incidental to the commercials. I always laugh when TV shows pat themselves on the back for being cutting-edge..."
ReplyDeleteAh, Justin? You pretty much called your new girlfriend a hack and the bank she made from her TEN SEASONS on Friends is paying for your steak dinner tonight.
These spineless people who won't leave their partner until THEY have moved on, are DISGUSTING! It's horrible. He's a coward, just like any other man or woman who does this to their partner. Aniston should have known to stay away.
ReplyDeletePlus Justin is CREEPY!
Let me say again. Justin is a CREEP!
ReplyDeleteIt's a really crappy thing that Justin did. And if Jen knew, that's pretty crappy too. I just find it so disrespectful to not end things w/ your current relationship before moving on to another.
ReplyDeleteI also do not see the appeal of this guy. At all. Maybe he's funny?
Hello, my name is blogger Jasmine, and I am here to co-sign 100% of what Ida Blankenawesome and ChasingHeaven said.
ReplyDeletetho for the record, I DO think Jen Aniston is prettier than Justin's old gf.

ReplyDelete@crila - I'm not upset that we disagree at all, but I don't think it's *fair* that you think that a marriage not spoken to "god" isn't as real a marriage as yours is. oh well. /kanyeshrug
ReplyDeleteAnd don't Atheists get married? I'm assuming they're not making any sacred vows to God and their marriage is as much of a marriage as any Catholics.
ReplyDeleteBesides, God didn't create marriage; man did! And of all the reasons, to produce heirs, keep wealth in families, etc I don't know if God was one of the reasons.
He is incredibly gross. I don't understand the attraction.
ReplyDeleteMen do this kind of thing all the time, but the women tend to get the scarlet letter (Jolie, anyone?). It takes two. I suppose if you could leave someone just like that after 14 years, either you've found your true soulmate (or the person who can help thrust you in the spotlight the fastest) or the relationship wasn't worth hanging onto.
ReplyDeleteI guess the real downer about this is that humans should be honest with one another, especially with someone who has invested 14 years in a relationship with you. The sad fact is, the other person doesn't think this is all too important until they get dumped the same way.
I usually love everything enty says but a few flags went up when I was reading this post
ReplyDelete1. Your going to use In Touch as a source? Really? I can't remember the last time they put anything really reliable in there.
2. All of you people dogging on Jen for using the tabloids to her advantage at the risk of sounding SUPER cliche...Don't hate the player hate the game!
At this point if you can't escape the tabloids you have to try and work it to your advantage.
3. I'm in agreement with everyone else so far that if he didn't marry her after 14 years he was never going to and was just enjoying her company in the meantime inbetween time I guess and that's the original girlsfriend's fault for kind of being a doormat and just waiting around and not leaving if she wanted marriage.
4. Let's be realistic here Jen doesn't own this girlfriend shit so she has no obligation to not date this guy if he is all for it. Who knows just like everyone before me has commented, I'm sure he made it sound like the relationship was over already. What did you expect Jennifer to really be like, "Um even though we both really like each other no we can't date because your with some girl your totally sick of and bored with?" No way she is going to go with the flow and fuck the other girl. Whole different situation if she knew the girl or was her friend!
oops meant to say she doesn't *owe* the girlfriend anything
ReplyDeleteHe'll be sorry when he gets past the original infatuation with Aniston. She is just not marriage material when half the men in Hollywood have been sexually serviced by her. There’s a reason men run towards her (she really is beautiful) but also a reason they run like their pants are on fire to get away (too numerous to mention).
ReplyDeleteI think she is going for the Hollywood record for most men "serviced" in a career.
I blame him more than Aniston. 14 years and that's how he treats the girl? There were problems in that relationship just like there were problems between Pitt and Aniston before Jolie.
ReplyDeleteAll this tells me is this guy is after Aniston's money and publicity. Remember KFed was with his babie's mama (pregnant at the time)when hooked into Britney.
Justin Theroux = Justin JUST NO.
ReplyDeletejust sayin.
@cowbulls -- "She is just not marriage material when half the men in Hollywood have been sexually serviced by her."
ReplyDeleteThis isn't 1955, you know. I can't get over how sexist that statement is -- and I obviously don't even like the woman one bit.
Sexist?? I think this situation swings equally both ways. I don't think either sex wants to marry a spouse that has had sexual relations with half of Hollywood. There are just way too many diseases out there. Call it what you will but most men don't want to marry the "good time girl from high school that everybody slept with".
ReplyDeleteThere's a reason the term slut isn't considered a complement.
"There's a reason the term slut isn't considered a complement."
ReplyDeleteTrue. And that word is equally applicable to men, you know.
And how, pray tell, would *you* know how many notches Aniston has in her bedpost? I've kept up with this pop culture bullshit for YEARS, and she might have terrible taste in men, but she sure seems like a serial monogamist to me.
In these situations these guys are usually emotionally done with their longtime gf's/wives. At some point they realize this, and instead of ending it like a real man and moving on alone, they start looking for someone else ( sometimes not even consciously ) and when they meet that person and feel that *spark* again..they become convinced that the new girl is *the one* and the old one was clearly over. The obvious mistake is that these fucktards have so little value for their partner's feelings that they are willing to string them along rather than being alone. When all is said and done, and the dust settles..the case usually is that the old girl/wife/partner ect.. is blindsided. Stunned, usually..but after a while things start to make sense and they grieve, move on and go on with life. These douchebag cheaters will stay with the new partner for a while but chances are..it won't work out and he'll be on to the next..or he will beg for the ex back ..and women? We are good..we deal with shit and move on and by the time these ass's realize this we are over it while they are still *sorting* out their lives. These guys were, are and allways will be douchebags.
ReplyDeleteAmen.
Seems like these 2 famewhores are well suited for one another. It's not going to last that's for sure.
ReplyDeleteJen made her living off Friends, not being the victim off a cheater. Let's be real.
ReplyDeleteBut I for one never blamed Angelina for what Brad did. That's only on him. And this is only on this guy. You know though, people should be free to leave if they're not happy. And if either Brad or Justin had been happy, they wouldn't have left.
His ex is stunning.
I agree with you that there are men sluts also but Brad doesn’t fit that description based on the information concerning his sexual history. Now Gerald Butler would classify.
ReplyDeleteAs for Jennifer's sexual history, I would site these as a couple of examples:
1. The male writers on Friends used to brag about how Aniston would let them use her sexually if they'd give her a few extra lines per show or the best jokes. Go over to the Smoking Gun and check it out. It's all in a lawsuit filed by a former female writer. I believe there is a more coarse term for this selling of sex for career gains but slut would also apply.
2. Knowing full well that cameras are capturing her every move, allowing Gerald Butler to position his hand onto or into her posterior would also classify. A couple of links to this that were easy to find are http://www.tmz.com/2010/03/29/jennifer-aniston-gerard-butler-photo-pictures-butt-grab/6#comments#ixzz0jbpZw9ks and http://www.tmz.com/2010/03/29/jennifer-aniston-gerard-butler-photo-pictures-butt-grab/11#comments#ixzz0jbrrtNes .
