Jennifer Aniston is finally speaking out on the comments Brad Pitt made about their marriage being “dull,” almost two weeks after they were made. Nevertheless, she’s taking the high road in the controversy.
As any respectable lover of good celebrity gossip must know, Brad Pitt landed himself in
a spot of trouble when, in a recent interview, he said his marriage to Jennifer Aniston had become boring and he was pretending it was something it wasn’t.
In following interviews, he made sure he clarified these statements, saying he’d meant no offense to Jen, who remained a close friend of his, as well as among the women he’d always love and respect.
Until now, Aniston hasn’t said a peep on the matter, but she’s breaking her silence now.
While promoting her latest directorial effort, a Lifetime project called “Five,” the beauty was asked what she made of Brad’s recent comments and, to her credit, she waved all controversy aside, the
Huffington Post informs.
“Oh, lord, it’s not even worth discussing on a night like this,” she said. The night was the premiere night of “Five” so she most likely didn’t want to have the attention diverted from the project, to her personal life.
Speaking of which, it seems to be going wonderfully ever since she met screenwriter / actor Justin Theroux, whom she started dating while working together on “Wanderlust.”
Penelope Spheeris, who directed “Five” with Aniston (just one of the many female directors who worked on the project), tells
People that Theroux was a fixture on the set of the film.
She says she didn’t know him until Jen introduced him to her, but that she had noticed how “lovey-dovey” they were in between takes.
“She introduced [Justin] to me and I’m like, ‘Who?’. Someone was like, ‘That was her boyfriend!’” Spheeris tells the celebrity magazine.
Back on the topic of the Brad Pitt controversy, he seems to have
put it behind him as well, telling Matt Lauer that he no longer wants to keep explaining something that he didn’t even intend to say, because his words were somehow taken out of context.
