Until she’s going full force to campaign for an Oscar nomination for “Cake,” Jennifer Aniston is out to show the world just how much fun she can be. Two of her newest appearances on TV, one for BBC radio 1 and the other on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, should serve that purpose.

Right now, Jennifer is promoting her cameo in “Horrible Bosses 2,” which opens in theaters in the US today, November 26, 2014. This being an ensemble comedy, her attempt to showing off her comedic skills makes sense.

Aniston pranks BBC Radio 1 reporter

Her first attempt is with BBC Radio 1 reporter Chris Stark, after being instructed by another reporter to turn “rude” when she’s asked a question about how she’d hit on a guy she liked considering she’s famous and could always pull the celebrity card.

Stark’s name might not ring a bell but his face could seem familiar to you: that’s because he’s actually very famous for being incredibly goofy and sweet. In 2013, he did his first major celebrity sit-down when he got to chat with Mila Kunis, who was on tour to promote “Oz the Great and the Powerful.”

At the time, Stark was so nervous that he came very close to ruining the whole interview, but Mila sympathized with him and helped him out. The video went viral afterwards, earning both Mila and Chris a lot of positive media attention.

In August 2013, he made headlines again, this time when he chatted with Jennifer Aniston, who was promoting “We’re the Millers.” The interview was – again – awkward but cute, and he got a lot of help from Aniston, who went out of her way to be nice.

This time, she’s switching it up: as you can see in the video below, while Jen stopped short of being rude, she did do her best to make things very difficult for him. Chris is almost on the verge of tears as he’s told time and time again that his question is inappropriate, and he’s so mortified that he’d probably do anything for her to forget he ever asked her.

Truly, this guy seems too nice for this world. In the end, all was forgiven – and Jennifer duly apologized for causing him this much anguish.

Aniston takes on Kim Kardashian, mocks her

The other night, Jennifer also stopped by The Ellen Show, where she and the talk show host played a game called the Last Word: they had to come up with the clean version of known curse words, with the only rule being that they were not allowed to repeat them.

However, as they played, Jennifer’s cup size was growing by the minute, which drew plenty of laughs from the audience. By the time they were down, she couldn’t even see her feet anymore and standing up, she proclaimed that she would strike her own version of “the Kim K pose,” but from the front.

This is actually not a new joke with Jennifer, telling a reporter last week that she was the original racy cover girl, not Kim K, because she did her revealing Rolling Stone magazine cover “way before” Kim did Paper magazine.

This second video is available on EllenTube. As a bonus, embedded below is a segment in which Aniston talks about her wedding plans to Justin Theroux and how they’re causing confusion even among her best friends.
