Next February, Jennifer Aniston turns 45 years old. At some point in time, the Jen is pregnant tabloid covers are going to have to stop. They will of course be replaced by Jen is adopting cover stories which will continue until she is 50. At that point, hopefully there will be someone else to devote 10% of their covers to and we can move on from the whole Jen and Brad thing. You might not think that pregnancy covers are a Jen and Brad thing, but they are. It is all one big continuation of the woman scorned covers they have been playing for a decade now. This week, In Touch admits Jen is not pregnant, BUT she is using IVF to try and get pregnant and hopes to be pregnant by her birthday. What that means for In Touch is they have a six month window to keep talking about it and a six month window to prove themselves right.
And, here YOU are...talking about it! LOL
ReplyDeleteWell, if it worked for Halle Berry it can work for her.
ReplyDeleteYou're right. These Jennifer Aniston baby stories (the marriage ones too) have to stop..
ReplyDeleteIf the reason why she doesn't get married is because she wants to stay on magazine covers she SHOULD have a baby (or adopt). She can still get the "When are they getting married?" stories in addition to baby stories and hints about baby #2.
ReplyDeleteI like Jen, but seriously, who cares?
ReplyDeleteGod I feel old when I read JA will be 45 in six months. Heck, she's a year older than me, and I'm not even 43 yet.
ReplyDelete@ Henriette I know what you mean I feel the exact same way. I just turned 43 yesterday and I see her age and I'm like wtf? Wait...I'm...o god!
DeleteWhy is so hard to accept that some women just do not want to have children?
ReplyDelete@Charlotte...
DeleteAgreed!! I'm childless by choice, I am fine with it. The rest of the world? Not so much.
Ruby and char- agree! When did she EVER say she was pining for a baby?
DeleteI remember the blind about the actress who slept with a guy who gave her something that will affect her getting pregnant - and then she has to watch in silence as he goes on to sleep with other high profile women.
ReplyDeleteIt's possible she can't get pregnant. Or - horror of horrors - she doesn't want to have children. The tabloids make me sad because yes, it's been going on for so long. If this publicity is what she's after, I'm even more sad for her.
I'm almost 45 and my son just turned 3. I wish he wouldn't be an only child but I think it's very irresponsible to plan another pregnancy. So, imo, not impossible to get pregnant at 45, but highly irresponsible.
ReplyDeleteTravelling down the blog--first Life & Style up above now the credible In Touch is being reported on. Up next the Enquirer.
ReplyDeleteLol @Sandybrook
ReplyDeleteI had a friend who got pregnant at 47 with twins.
ReplyDeleteWasn't there talk that she had a miscarriage with Brad?
ReplyDeleteanother here who is childless by choice, yeah and the rest of the world is definitely not chill with it. Like, i'm a monster who hates all children or something. *eyeroll*
ReplyDeleteLol, yup.
DeleteI've even had complete strangers ask me why I don't like kids.
I've got nieces/nephews who I adore completely. 2 goddaughters who mean the world to me.
Giving them back to their parents at end of the day is a great feeling, I gotta say!
Love kids, just not for me.
I think women who dont have children have very good reasons not known to others. Its smart to know yourself.
ReplyDeleteThis broad wants a kid like she wants a hole in the head. Last thing she wants is a lil creature running around her house that has a personality and free will.
ReplyDeleteOk I'm 39 I don't see what peoples facination with having children is. Some women just arent ment to be mothers it's not a bad thing. I'd rather not have children then have a child or a any woman have q child that doesn't want one and resent every moment of it.
ReplyDeleteIt's just so very hard for breeders to think someone would not want children and instead have a life of their own.
ReplyDeletePeople and the media hype up marriage and kids, imo. It's not for everyone; leave people be with their choices.
ReplyDeleteI'm 47, with grown kids/grandkiddos. If someone told me it was life or death that I have another kid, I'd run naked onto a busy highway. No. Just no. Especially, if by some miracle, I had Jen's body!
ReplyDeleteI love this smartwater commercial! cracks me up every time!
ReplyDeleteShe did say she wanted kids after the divorce fiasco when she was accused of being to blame because she didn't want kids. She perpetuates this herself.
ReplyDeleteI had a kid at almost 40, didn't even want one til I was about 36 and did a complete flip flop. But many women don't want one, know they'd be a lousy mother and as if women didn't have enough problems, there's still the feeling that you aren't a complete woman if you don't have a baby. Pisses me off.
don't give a rats ass about Jennifer melba milquetoast foreveraloneiston
ReplyDeleteJust like a Filly doesn't become a Mare until she has a foal, or a Gilt is not a Sow until she has piglets, a Girl does not become a Woman until she has a baby.
ReplyDelete@Count...while I get your point, a filly actually becomes a mare after turning 3 years old (with a couple of exceptions - in horse racing it's 4 years old). Similarly, a piglet (or gilt if specifically 6 months old) becomes a sow after reaching sexual maturity (no clue when that is). Neither change in designation is a result of pregnancy.
DeleteFilly/piglet (gilt) - - > mare/sow
is akin to
girl - - > woman
To all women everywhere who have deliberately chosen not to have children: THANK YOU! Far too many children are born into this world who are not truly wanted, and the consequences of that are heartbreaking. Much better to know that you don't want to go all in than to be a half-assed parent.
ReplyDeleteCee Kay: I've worked w kids who are born unwanted: not cared for, not valued, all w attachment disorder and an aray of mental health, developmental and social/cognitive issues. Too many kids, people need to think before the pecker snot results in a baby.
DeleteYou never know if a celebrity quote is true or not but I remember her father supposedly saying "If she wanted a child by now she would have had a child by now".
ReplyDeleteMs. Lola, sweetness, shhhh. My intention there wasn't to make sense, it was to incite the anti-breeder kooks who are as vocal and insanely adamant about being better than everyone else as the pro-anteater crowd.
ReplyDeleteWe all know a girl becomes a woman at the age determined by the state or country she resides in. Unless of course she is Jewish, in which case it is 13, right?
I dont think she wants kids
ReplyDeleteI dont think she even wants to get married
Its the idea of it and the tabloid stories that keep her in headlines
she would be over if it still wants for her #foreveralone stories
@Count Jerkula, I guess we seem a little overboard because we have had everybody on our back about this decision.
ReplyDeleteJust like strangers will touch a pregnant belly, these strangers will also comment on the LACK of visible fertility.
So..we have Parents, relatives, strangers,and dates (who give the side eye as if no children indicate DEEP emotional baggage) reacting with patronizing disbelief.
"You'll change your mind...When you meet the right guy... You're not getting any younger...No kids?... Hunh"
Lucky for all of us you fulfilled your genetic destiny. Lucky for me, I didn't.
Have a nice day
@steampunk, you can never please 'those people' either. If you have a baby, when are you having another? If you hae another, don't you think you've got enough now? Time to get a snip. If you start dating, when are you getting married? If you have babies outside if marriage, when are you going to make them legal? If you lose the baby weight quickly, don't you think you should be focusing more on your children? If you take a while to lose the baby weight, don't you think you should be taking better care of yourself? A baby is no excuse to let yourself go.
DeleteShe was on letterman, when she first got engaged to brad, and said, "of course I want kids. And I want to be. Young mother". I remember thinking, "better hurry up!" because she was ready past 30. She went on for a bit about having kids. Then, as mentioned above, she said it again after the disso. I don't think she ever really wanted kids. She could easily acquire one if she did. But it gets her press to sort of alude to the possibility of a baby......look how different she and brads lives are. Makes you wonder why they ever got together.
