I go for the cute gals, Neither of them really fall under that category… Maybe before Aniston got all “Hollywood” with her looks. Same thing with Spears, maybe before she got all “Hollywood” with her looks… then she reached the age of 12 months old, and it was all downhill from there. :rolleyes: ---

BTW, I would like to see which of these posters are male amd which are female. Do I sense any scale tipping? I’m a male for the record. ---

Aniston - for most of the reasons already stated. As for the ‘kissing an ashtray’ line - well, I’ve dated a smoker before, and sorry - it wasn’t like that at all. ---

Do yourself a favor and watch[She’s the One](http://us.imdb.com/Title?0117628). If you still think Britney’s better after seeing that, there’s no hope for you. ---

Anyone who doubts that she has fake boobs is living in denial!:wally \*\* Has it really been **that** long since you had a date? And no, renting porn doesn’t count as a date. You are a prime example of why jealousy is an ugly thing. I pity you. ---

I really wish people would get it through their heads that not ALL criticism directed against celebrities originates with an intense burning jealously that overcomes all reason. That said, I’d choose Aniston regardless. I don’t really have a lot of respect for Britney. ---

If I were a young Don Johnson and my psychic dog had been taken away from me and I had been strapped to a semen-milking table by a whitefaced Jason Robards and forced to choose between Aniston and Spears, I would take Aniston. But _only_ if. ---

A year ago, I would’ve said Britney. But she’s so overexposed these days, that she could be doing anything in any state of undress and it wouldn’t do much for me (psychologically speaking, of course). Jennifer Aniston doesn’t do that much more for me, but she’s the lesser of two evils here. ---

Aniston, by default. I mean, comparing her to Britney? I will be very glad when the “pouty bitchy look” fad goes out of style. Even if you have a perfect body (which she doesn’t), it doesn’t hurt to smile every now and again. The smoking thing, though, is also a big turnoff. There are definitely celebrities I would prefer to either of the two. ---

This one is tough. If I had to choose between the two, say for instance to be stranded on a desert island with (shudder) I’d go with Britney. Jennys not bad though… [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/britney-spears-or-jennifer-aniston/120830.md?page=2)
