A lot of you didn’t think there was anything suspicious or Uncool Bermuda Triangle-ish going on earlier this week, when Jennifer Aniston appeared at a Cake screening during the same media cycle as Angelina Jolie’s Unbroken premiere. I still disagree. I’ve seen Angelina, Brad and Jennifer passive-aggressively poke each other enough times over the years to say that they all pay attention to each other in varying ways, to varying degrees. I’ve always thought that Jennifer plays into the Uncool Bermuda Triangle stuff a lot more than Brangelina, although Brad has his moments where it’s seemed like he’s said he was bored to tears being married to Jennifer. Now, after ten years of this crap, are we finally ready to bury the Uncoolness? Nope. The tabloids still want to paint Jennifer as a neurotic loser plotting out what she’s going to say to them at the Golden Globes.
Maybe Jennifer Aniston just wanted to lay low as she prepares for a ‘face off’ with Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt at January’s Golden Globe Awards, according to a Wednesday report from InTouch Weekly. Jennifer looks like she could be nominated for her drama Cake while Angelina will most likely get a nod for directing her WWII saga Unbroken and Brad could be singled out for his acting turn in the war epic Fury.
The weekly reported that Aniston is ‘repulsed’ by the Oscar-winning beauty and wants to ‘look her straight in the eye and tell her how she really feels.’
Angering the Aniston star is how Brad allowed his marriage to her be mocked while being interviewed by Zach Galifianakis during Funny Or Die’s Between The Ferns. In the skit the Ocean’s Eleven star looked annoyed to be reminded of his union with the beachy blonde. The weekly insisted the blonde bombshell felt humiliated by the references.
So she is ready to confront the power couple who wed this summer in France with their six children in attendance, earning them the People cover, it was added by the publication. Though it’s claimed the Friends star wants the confrontation, she is allegedly worried.
‘She is nervous to the point of being sick over the prospect of coming face-to-face with Brad and Angie,’ said the source. ‘But she has waited a decade for this.’

Let me clear: I don’t think Aniston really feels this way. I don’t think she’s nervous or worried or even desirous of any kind of “face off.” I think her focus is on increasing the buzz for her “Oscar hopeful” Cake by any means necessary, and maybe part of her promotion involves hyping up the potential for an old-school Uncool Showdown. And maybe that’s one way to get a Golden Globe nomination? Because she’s not really going to get an Oscar nomination, right?
