Celebrity Feuds
Laura & Jen: Separated by Angelina -- Literally!

The friendship between Laura Dern and Jennifer Aniston is proof that some good can come from the relationship-killing Angelina virus!

Jen Aniston, Laura Dern and Angelina Jolie
The two jilted actresses have been spotted around town a lot lately and share this in common: Both saw their men run off with gorgeous Oscar-winner/Goodwill Ambassador, Angelia Jolie. Girls, interrupted!

Although you may have heard that Brad Pitt allegedly hooked up with Jolie before after breaking up with Aniston, in 2000, Dern was reportedly still dating Billy Bob Thornton when he suddenly married Angie. Snap! Dern has since had two children with her husband, singer Ben Harper, while Jen is single and childless.

At least she has her friends!

16. People leaving spouses for others is old news; what I don't understand is why A. Jolie will not speak to her father because he left her mother for another woman; it seems that A. Jolie is more like her father than her mother.

17. The problem in Hollyweird is there never have been any standards. All these relationship are about the same as what Liz Taylor did or other older actors did. Bed jumping is not new in Hollyweird!!!!!!!!!

18. So now it's Angelina's fault that she's an amazing person and people (yes, even married men) are drawn to her. Brad and Billy Bob may have left their significant others for Jolie - but all that proves is that she has some quality that Aniston/Dern didn't have. Anyway, Aniston is butt ugly and conceited. I'm glad her marriage broke up ...boohoo...she can't act either...must suck when your husband leaves you for a beautiful oscar-winner!

21. Slow news day TMZ?

22. I don't understand all the Jen haters calling her insecure, lonely, bitter, etc. I've never seen one word from her that presents her in any light other than gracious. So what's the deal? People have to make her look "bad" so they can make Angie look "good?"

23. What is it TMZ--a slow news day? You have to try and fan the fires again for the Aniston fans? Laura Dern, as previous posters pointed out, took Ben Harper from his wife and I believe ditto for Billy Bob Thornton. But oh, this is okay, because she is not Angelina. And again as other posters have said--poor Jen, America will never get over her pain and humiliation because she won't let them and neither will you.
Angie has turned her life around and is a great humanitarian. Instead of baking her skin into leather at the beach like JA or whining to every publication around about how she is sick of this triangle she is in (yet brings up constantly)--Angie is giving homes to children who need them and helping refugees.
Go Angie. Go Brad. And Jen SHUT UP. You too TMZ!

24. Brad Pitt and Jen Aniston were over in 2002 according to her. They both tried to make it work but it naturally fell apart they have very very different personalities and goals in life. That is the fact. Angelina was a convenient escape route and if he'd been working with Paris Hilton at that time, he would be working on architectural designs for hotels now.

25. A new low even for TMZ.

26. The premise for this comment is so not fair . Why not say something like " two women with totally different reactions to a failed relationship " ? Laura Dern took then lost Billy Bob then she took Ben Harper and had a baby while he was still married to another . J. Aniston lost her husband and she is still ( with the aid of her publicist and fans ) playing the pity me story . I don't care how gorgeous a woman is the man who is really in love with his wife will not leave her for the beter looking woman . If Angelina was a man stealer then why didn't all of her other male co-stars leave their wives ? Let's be a litle more objective TMZ .

27. If a woman doesn't want to please her man, there's another woman who will. I agree TMZ news must be slow to be bringing up old news. Obviously the same thing happened to one of your writers and can't get over it.

28. Sorry but I don't see the beauty. She's got a horse head and the biggest hands and feet on any woman I've ever seen. This is one major nasty skank.

29. But look what the 'relation-killing virus that is Angelina' has caused! - 3 orphans who had absolutely no chance of even surviving now have a mommy, daddy, food, clothes and medicine. That trumps anything I've heard about Ms Dern or Jennifer ever doing! Angie You deserved Billy Bob and you deserve Brad too!!

30. Isnt that kinda depressing? Like 2 old biddies getting together to complain about the woman who took their man. Talk about a pity party. Maybe she can get ahold of Angie's old high school yearbook. Maybe figure out who she took to prom, and look up if THAT guy had a girlfriend. Wow that would be fun.................not lol.
