Fitness enthusiast: Jennifer Aniston revealed in 2014 that her preferred weight range was 100-113lbs. Now, the 49-year-old star of Horrible Bosses has shared with In Style magazine that she has discovered a new enjoyable method to feel content with her weight.
Having a blast: The gorgeous blonde currently filming Murder Mystery alongside Adam Sandler in Italy, shared her newfound love for boxing with a magazine. “Last year, I stumbled upon boxing, and it’s become my new obsession,” mentioned the Smartwater ambassador.
The former Friends star went on to praise her trainer, Leyon, stating, “I firmly believe he’s a fitness wizard. Boxing is the only workout apart from yoga that I’ve stuck with consistently.” She continued, “There’s something about the mental challenge of boxing – the drills, the focus required – it’s not like just sitting on a stationary bike. It’s truly incredible.”
Furthermore, boxing helps her release any pent-up frustrations. “Boxing is an excellent way to let out aggression. It’s a mental escape from the negativity we encounter daily, with moments of imagining punching something or someone,” she explained. “Luckily, it’s all in good fun, even though there may be one specific person in mind. You catch my drift. All in good spirits.”
More enjoyable than a morning run: Jennifer Aniston, known for her role in Friends, raved about her boxing trainer Leyon, whom she sees as a fitness savior. She confessed that boxing is the only workout she has stuck with besides yoga, citing the mental challenge and active engagement compared to just cycling. This was shared back in 2015.
Aniston finds boxing to be a great outlet for releasing frustrations, stating that it helps her get rid of pent-up aggression. In her upcoming movie Dumplin’, she takes on the role of a former beauty pageant contestant. When asked if she ever participated in beauty pageants herself, she jokingly responds that it’s hilarious and describes her childhood appearance. She expresses excitement about the changing perceptions of beauty and applauds the decision to eliminate the swimsuit competition from the Miss America pageant. Aniston advocates for redefining beauty standards, emphasizing that beauty comes in all shapes and sizes, not just the traditional ideals of a size 4 with specific measurements. She believes it’s time to move away from outdated beauty norms and embrace diversity.
Discussing her childhood experiences, Jennifer Aniston mentioned her upcoming role in the musical Dumplin’, where she plays a former beauty pageant contestant. When asked if she had ever participated in such contests, Aniston amusingly responded, “That’s hilarious. No way! Have you seen what I looked like as a kid?”
In her recent interview, Aniston opened up about the media’s portrayal of her. She highlighted the misconceptions that have been perpetuated, such as the belief that she “can’t keep a man” or that she is “selfish and career-driven” for not having children. Addressing these assumptions, Aniston firmly stated, “With all due respect, I’m not heartbroken.”
Following her split from Justin Theroux earlier this year, Aniston is currently navigating the process of divorce. Previously, she was married to Brad Pitt for five years and has dated Vince Vaughn and John Mayer in the past.
Jennifer and Justin ended their relationship earlier this year, as seen in 2017. The actress from Wanderlust expressed her frustration with assumptions about her personal life, especially regarding starting a family. Critics have often targeted her for not having children, drawing comparisons to Angelina Jolie, who has six kids. Jennifer emphasized that people don’t know the challenges she and her partner may have faced in their journey to parenthood. She hinted at possible medical or emotional struggles with conceiving, highlighting the pressure on women to become mothers. She questioned society’s expectation that a woman’s worth is defined by her ability to procreate, suggesting that perhaps her purpose on earth goes beyond motherhood.
Ideal job: A Los Angeles native is currently filming a Netflix movie in Italy alongside actor Adam Sandler. Here, she is captured with her team of hair and makeup artists.
When it comes to dealing with the constant scrutiny of being in the public eye, Aniston admitted that she has her moments of vulnerability, but prefers to keep those private. Despite the occasional breakdown, she can usually shrug off the absurd headlines with humor.
Aniston acknowledged the existence of sexism in the media and shared her experiences with it. She emphasized the importance of focusing on meaningful pursuits like her work, relationships with friends, caring for animals, and contributing to positive change in the world, rather than getting caught up in the sensationalism of tabloid stories.

Society often judges women unfairly based on their appearance and clothes, creating unnecessary competition among them. In Hollywood, when a relationship ends, it’s usually the woman who gets the blame and is expected to suffer alone. Why is it that a divorced, childless man is never labeled as a ‘spinster’?
When it comes to workplace harassment, actress Aniston shared that she has experienced some inappropriate advances from fellow actors but dealt with it by distancing herself. Fortunately, she has never been put in a compromising position by someone in a position of power.
Luke Evans, who is working alongside Jen and Adam, expressed his admiration for their professionalism on set. He also shared that some women in the industry have treated him poorly, both verbally and energetically.
Although she didn’t mention any names, Aniston spoke about her support for the Time’s Up movement, emphasizing the importance of everyone, including men, being part of the conversation and listening to each other. She believes that approaching difficult situations with understanding and respect is key to making real progress, quoting Michelle Obama’s famous line: “When they go low, we go high.”
An upcoming project to look forward to is “Murder Mystery,” a film featuring a married couple who become suspects in a billionaire’s murder case, set to be released in 2019.
