Jennifer Aniston Opens Up

Jennifer's not just watching the news these days, she's making plenty of headlines herself. She appears on the December, 2008, cover of Vogue, and in the article writer Jonathan Van Meter says she is "redefining what it means to be 40."

"I think [turning 40] is kind of awesome," Jennifer says. "[But] I'm still pretty immature." Jennifer shows off her age-defying bod in the Vogue spread, posing in a bikini. "That's [from] yoga, running, eating well and taking care of myself."

The article also grabbed national attention because Jennifer opens up about her ex-husband, Brad Pitt, and his girlfriend, actress Angelina Jolie. In the article, Jennifer is quoted discussing Angelina's past comments on the timeline of her romance with Brad. "The stuff about how she couldn't wait to get to work every day?" Jennifer says in the current issue. "That was really uncool."

Though that quote ended up on the Vogue cover, Jennifer says it was just a small part of a larger story. "The content [of the story] does not reflect the cover," she says. "[Jonathan] asked me a question, and I basically just answered it as honestly as I could."

Jennifer's love life has been a matter of public interest since she starred on Friends. Since breaking up with Brad, however, she says people feel sorry for her when they shouldn't. "It's a really nice thing to have so many fans and people that really care," she says. "I feel like I've been unbelievably lucky in love. It just might not look the way it's supposed to look at this point."

Despite their past, Jennifer says she's proud of Brad and his family. "He's done some amazing things in the last couple of years," she says. "I think he's doing great."
