Jennifer Aniston Watch

Pictures have surfaced of Jen and John Mayer leaving Miami - together! While some have thrown around phrases such as “getting serious” regarding the extent to which Jen and John have enjoyed one another’s company, let’s focus on the real star of the show . . .

Norman Aniston, star of many adorable paparazzi pictures, was spotted on Tuesday boarding a plane to leave Miami. While his owner, Jennifer, spoke to personnel about necessary accommodations for the canine, the four-legged star was seen hanging out with musician John Mayer (above). Witnesses tell me that Norman, while generally pleasant, did at times bark demands at his companions; these demands included a water bowl filled with Smartwater and hourly belly rubs. He did, however, gladly oblige when fans approached him for pictures and pawprints.

Where was Norman headed? Well, if Jen’s whereabouts are any indication, he was headed to Orlando, where John performed last night. People reports that Jen was seen backstage at John’s concert, taking photos all the while and even sneaking a kiss:

While Mayer, 30, played an hour-long set at the convention center, Aniston, 39, wearing a tank top and jeans, shot pictures of him from backstage. At the end of the concert, he came back for a kiss before he went out for an encore and played “Free Fallin’” by Tom Petty.

Pictures of John onstage can be found here at PopSugar. It is rumored that Norman will next travel to the Philadelphia area, where Jen is set to continue filming Marley & Me. The Philadelphia Daily News reports that Owen Wilson has already begun filming in Philadelphia with costar Eric Dane (Inquirer newsroom scenes are set to begin tomorrow), while Jen is due to begin filming her scenes next Tuesday. When asked for comment, Norman chased his tail.

It’s a wrap! Here’s Jen arriving at the Marley & Me wrap party, held at Nikki Beach Coconut Grove last night, with John Mayer by her side. Earlier in the day, the pair spent some more time by the pool, and even some time in it, as these pictures at Gossip Girls show. Enjoy!

It started with a sighting. A little birdie, and by a little birdie I mean Michael’s Genuine Food and Drink general manager Charles Bell, told People that Jen shared a meal with John Mayer on Friday night. She had a salad, he had a sandwich, and they shared a dessert. Stop the presses, stars are just like us! They share dessert!

So of course this led to whisperings all weekend about what this could possibly mean. I read exactly squat into it. After all, past sightings of Jen dining with certain male companions have proved to be, if not completely off the mark, at the very least off on some details. So for me, a bit of photographic evidence would be necessary before I could draw any conclusions. After all, it might have been an appetizer that they shared. Wouldn’t that just change everything?

Well, In Touch has the snaps of Jen and John enjoying some sun together! While this doesn’t necessarily shed light on Friday’s sighting, it is pretty clear that the two are cozy together. The mag goes on to say that John spent a long weekend in Miami, spending time with Jen around town and in her suite at the Mandarin Oriental.

What do we think? I know that there have been reports of Mr. Mayer being something of an interesting character, but let’s not forget that there have been some real doozies spread about Jen without any real basis. The vast majority of us will never really get to know him, but Jen does have that opportunity and as of right now, has chosen to take it, which I think says something. What is apparent is that he is a talented, attractive younger man who has chosen to spend some time with Jen, which to me says that at the very least he has excellent taste. Time will tell where this goes . . . stay tuned.

New pictures have surfaced of Jen and Owen doing some more filming for Marley & Me. They were snapped at Miami’s Cardozo Hotel on Friday, both at the hotel and on the beach outside - they were even joined by Gloria Estefan! Check out more pics of Jen looking stunning as always under the jump!

And so it begins . . . the publicity for Jen’s new films is officially underway! New stills from He’s Just Not That Into You can be found at Yahoo! Movies. Jen appears alongside an all-star cast that includes Ben Affleck, Jennifer Connelly, Drew Barrymore, and Scarlett Johansson. Check them out!

Now, excuse me while I go geek out . . .

Jen hit the road rolling today, as she and Owen were snapped filming another scene for Marley & Me. Clearly one of the earlier (early ’90’s) scenes in the book - gotta love the scrunchie! Wait a second . . . she somehow even manages to make that look good. She truly has magical powers. Including the ability to defy age - is she really 39? She looks so young!

Check out I’m Not Obsessed for even more pics of Jen behind the wheel of this very period-appropriate vehicle!

More pictures have surfaced from Tuesday’s fundraiser for the Epidermolysis Bullosa Medical Research Foundation at Eva Longoria’s restaurant Beso, including pictures of Jen palling around with Courteney, Eva, and Orlando Bloom. Furthermore, not only did the event raise money for EBMRF, but it was announced today that Stiefel Laboratories, a pharmaceutical company noted for its contributions in the field of dermatology, will match all funds raised via Courteney and David’s recent fundraising challenge for the cause. According to this press release, this was announced to guests at the event. At Beso, guests enjoyed good food and great company, all for a very good cause!

Now you see ‘em . . .

now you don’t!

Are those bangs just a bit of movie magic? New Marley & Me set pictures show Jen sporting bangs . . . sometimes. Other pictures, presumably taken upon her arrival onset and prior to hair and makeup, show her without the fringe. It seems that some sort of styling trickery is involved, but as the old Clairol ads used to say, only her hairdresser knows for sure!

Anyway, PopSugar has other pics from the set, including an adorable one of Jen getting affectionate with her own furry friend Norman! Wonder if this project will afford Norman the opportunity to get back to his acting roots with a cameo, alongside Dolly, Jen’s other dog - either way, it does seem like fate that someone like Jen, with her real-life love for dogs, is involved in Marley’s tale.

After much anticipation, it’s official: production is underway on Marley & Me, based on the memoir by John Grogan. In the scene shot today (March 6) in Miami, it looks like Jen and Owen are having some car trouble! Check out Gossip Girls and Faded Youth for more pictures of Jen and Owen on the set - and check out those bangs! A great new look for a great new movie.

Speaking of things to look at, check out Faded Youth’s pics of Owen and Eric filming a snorkeling scene! Yes, that is one shirtless Eric Dane, captured on film for our viewing pleasure. Not that, you know, his shirtlessness isn’t utterly vital to the plot. I, for one, admire his unwavering commitment to his craft. And . . . enjoy!

Traveling

Look at that woman in the picture above (and in other on-set pictures at PopSugar); is it even possible that she’s 39 years old? Well, believe it; today, Jen celebrates her 39th birthday! Here’s to a year filled with many things as beautiful as Jen herself, and here’s to many, many more.

This weekend has brought an assortment of Traveling-related activity; I of course refer both to travel itself and to Jen’s new film. First, Canadian gossip blog Is This Happening reported (most likely separate) sightings of Jen and Aaron Eckhart in Vancouver, where, as we have known for some time now, Traveling has been set to film. In other Canadian news, the blog reports that Jen’s Friends costar Matthew Perry was spotted in Ottawa; given that he spent some of his childhood there, could he have been visiting with family?

Anyway, back to Jen. The blog later got more specific, reporting that Jen was spotted enjoying the fine Italian cuisine at Cioppino’s in Vancouver’s Yaletown neighborhood. Much like she did during her location shoots for Management (Oregon), Derailed (Chicago and London), and The Break-Up (Chicago), she is already avidly sampling local cuisine and culture, setting the stage for an extended stay.

And they’re rolling! Pictures have begun to surface of Jen looking free-spirited and gorgeous in the role of the florist whom Aaron Eckhart’s protagonist meets in his travels as a self-help guru. So far, pics can be found at Just Jared (whose collection is particularly extensive), Flynet, and Faded Youth. The cast and crew were spotted filming at the Hyatt on Sunday - check out that van! From the sounds of it, this film will provide Jen with the opportunity to really tap into her intuitive nature and give a performance that is above all deeply human. I look forward to watching this production progress.

Despite what the rumor mill would have us believe, it seems that Jen is spending the season with those who mean a lot to her - her friends. On Christmas Eve, a smiling Jen was spotted and snapped leaving Mastro’s, with Courteney close behind. Looking at that grin, it seems that a wonderful time was had by all; not even the paps could dampen her spirits! Check out more pics of the girls’ night out at PopSugar.

It looks like the festive fun will continue into the new year! Faded Youth has pics of Jen boarding a private jet with Courteney, David, and Coco. And is that Jon Favreau in the fedora? The pals often spend New Year’s Eve in Cabo San Lucas, and it seems that they may be headed there once again.

We all admire Jen’s easy, elegant style, and she has without a doubt continued to dazzle on red carpets this year. It seems that Access Hollywood would agree with that sentiment, as they have named Jen one of their best dressed stars of 2007! On the list, she joins stylish stars such as Rihanna, Reese Witherspoon, and He’s Just Not That Into You costar/producer Drew Barrymore. The refreshing thing is that Jen continues to impress while remaining true to her classic, comfortable style; indeed, the list cites her as “proving a woman can go classic and conservative and still be majorly sexy.” Even her casual style stays true to this principle . . .

Earlier this week, Jen was photographed running errands in LA (more pics can be seen at PopSugar). Throughout the various pics, one can conclude that she is both well-hydrated and festive, as she is seen carrying a holiday package and a bottle of smartwater. Her outfit is so simple, but I adore it. It is a very quintessentially Jen outfit. And as we can see, she rocks the trench coat both onscreen and off. Tres chic.

Finally, in the ten-steps-ahead-yet-kind-of-adorable category, Celebrity Baby Blog offers its speculation on how Jen would dress a baby daughter. Jen is already a doting godmother to Courteney’s daughter Coco, and the blog speculates that Jen would dress a daughter of her own in comfortable, all-American classics with a nature-inspired twist. And of course, the little one would have fabulous hair, just like her mom. Random though it may be, the article does spotlight some chic threads for casual-cool kids everywhere.

For years, Jen’s corgi-terrier mix Norman has been a reliable presence at her side, with new addition Dolly joining the happy family last year. However, in recent months, very few have seen Norman, and sightings of Jen with Dolly made Norman’s absence all the more conspicuous. Well, PageSix.com has taken it upon themselves to settle the confusion and to ease the minds of worried Jen watchers everywhere. After extensive questioning of many insiders, the site received word from Stephen Huvane that Norman is “alive and well.” Seeking further reassurance, a new entry asks readers for their Norman sightings:

We don’t not believe the flack, but we’d love to know if you see Norman. Please tell us when and where he’s made an appearance at gossip@pagesix.com.

And don’t worry about the blonde he’s with — it’s all about the dog.

Recent Malibu evacuations have understandably made it less likely that Norman would be spotted in his usual spot on the beach; nevertheless, it is always a relief to hear from somebody in the know that he is okay. Clearly, he has simply learned to fly under the radar, and as many can attest, he’s learned that talent from an expert. Given that he got his start as an actor, it is good to know that he’s managed to at least master that aspect of the business.

Recent pics indicate that Jen has returned to Malibu; she has been snapped in front of her home there (reportedly with Norman and Dolly in tow). X17 has more pictures, although despite what the commentary might suggest, her holiday plans are not known to anybody but her and her nearest and dearest. Hopefully this return means that the stage is set for a peaceful, worry-free holiday season surrounded by loved ones and the comforts of home.

Pics from this production have, er, managed to trickle out rather slowly, but the ones that we do get are great. This one, from Access Hollywood, shows Jen entering into (fake) holy matrimony with Woody Harrelson. Just a month after she (fake) married Ben Affleck on the set of He’s Just Not That Into You; our girl gets around (in the fictional sense)! Wonder what stalker, I mean, respectful admirer Steve Zahn has to say about this latest development?
