Over the past 3 years or so practically everytime I’m in the check out line at the supermarket there is some women’s magazine cover with Jennifer Aniston’s perky little mug front and center. If it’s not Redbook it’s People or Rolling Stone or whatever mag has fancied her this month. There are larger and more important female movie stars and singers, and her co-stars on Friends are equally pretty and talented, and yet Jennifer seems to make the cut time after time after time while the other “hot” stars are not nearly as popular. Even if she does not have a hit movie currently and her TV show ensemble is winding down *the mags still just can’t get enough of her. *
Why is she such a compelling cover choice for these magazines as opposed to numerous other equally pretty, famous and accomplished women available? Is it the hair?
Jennifer Aniston, …I’d hit it no doubt, but I 'd rather see some other hotties on there besides her. How about Charlize Therone? Way hotter than Jennifer Aniston in my opinion, plus she’s African American - which is way cool!
Agreed. She was hot in her last Maxim shoot, definately makes guys go crazy, she looks good, but when she opens her mouth in interviews, she is just trash.
Do small, slender women ever become draq queen icons? I would imagine that this type of woman would be difficult for a man to pull off with any authority.
Also, how come there there are no Janeane Garofalo draq queens. She’s sassy and has plenty of 'tude!
If it were up to me, Danni Ashe would be on more mag covers. She’s so full of womanly goodness …
But I really like Aniston’s looks and don’t mind seeing her face on a mag every month. She has a pleasant, wholesome beauty that I suspect strikes most people favorably.
As for the drag queens, I suspect Aniston is a LOT more difficult to successfully imitate than many drag queen icons, since the tool of most drag queens is caricature, and Aniston doesn’t really have features that lend themselves to caricature. That’s why they like Marilyn Monroe and Bettie Davis so much. And of course, a certain mannishness in the features of the original helps … that’s why Joan Crawford is such a biggie for drag queens.
Halle Berry is another person who is always on at least one magazine cover a month. Very frequently she’s on more than one. Sometimes I wonder if they just don’t recycle the same pictures of her over and over again. As much as I can see her beauty, I just don’t get it. It’s like she’s a stalker. Her face is always lurking in the background of my life, watching my every move.
