Jennifer Aniston and Gwen Stefani’s friendship has spanned more than a decade and a half, starting when they were introduced by their significant others at the time, Brad Pitt and Gavin Rossdale. Recently, at the 2019 People’s Choice Awards in Los Angeles, the two stunning women demonstrated their love for each other, with Stefani giving Aniston a smooch backstage. It was a special night for both ladies, as they each received awards.
It’s surprising to learn that Jennifer Aniston and Gwen Stefani have been close pals for more than a decade and a half. The two stars proved just how strong their bond is at the 2019 People’s Choice Awards in Los Angeles, where they showered each other with love.
Did you see the adorable moment between Gwen Stefani and Jennifer Aniston at an awards show? The lead singer of No Doubt was caught on camera planting a sweet kiss on the head of the Friends actress, who was receiving the Icon award that night. It’s clear that the two are close friends, as they were seen laughing and having a great time together backstage. This isn’t the first time they’ve been spotted together, as they have been photographed side by side for over a decade. In fact, they were even seen posing with Christina Applegate at the 2009 Oscars. Interestingly, they also have some commonalities – both are 50 years old and were previously married to men who were friends. How cute is their friendship!
These two Hollywood heartthrobs might have more in common than we initially thought. Brad Pitt and Gavin Rossdale are both 50 years old, and they’ve both endured very public and messy breakups. Interestingly enough, the two have been close friends for over a decade and a half, even spotted enjoying ATV rides together back in 2006. When Chris Cornell tragically passed away in 2017, the two comforted each other at his funeral. Equally remarkable is the fact that Jennifer Aniston was married to Brad from 2000 until 2005, and Gwen Stefani was wed to Gavin from 2002 until 2016. It seems that these stars not only share similar ages and drama, but their paths have also crossed more often than we realized.
