Jennifer Aniston has certainly come a long way from her days as Rachel Green on Friends. The 39-year-old actress has successfully moved on from her sitcom days, able to take on leading lady roles in several hit movies over the past decade. Her new movie Marley and Me adds yet another feather to her cap, and her life in front of and beyond the cameras could not get any better.

“I just feel like, you know, every woman that’s ever said - or man - that’s said it just gets better, I just agree,” she gushes to the press in a recent interview, adding, “You don’t know as much as you know in your 20s as you do in your 30s as you do when you are… I’m startin’ to live. And it’s really good!”

Her recent and much talked-about stint as GQ covergirl, where she posed buck naked save for a strategically placed necktie, is proof of her growing confidence with her body and her reputation. “It’s funny. I mean, I honestly see it as a different person,” she says of the cover. “It’s just - well, because the headlines are outrageous, you usually get a kick out of that. But you just kind of go - you try to walk past it as fast as you possibly can, honestly.”

While Aniston had complained before that her personal life was purely “none of people’s “(expletive) business,” she has come to terms with the fact that people tend to stare at her in public. “It’s amazing how you can sort of start to tune them out.”

Having played the lead in romantic comedies such as Along Came Polly and The Breakup, Aniston is glad that Marley and Me is a slight and healthy change of pace. She claims that it was “so nice not starring in your normal romantic comedy, where it’s all about getting the guy or getting the girl… we get to actually tell the story.”

Not to be outdone by her onscreen flames, her real-life romantic endeavors are going strong with “Your Body is a Wonderland” singer John Mayer.

Jennifer Aniston’s been the subject of media frenzy ever since her days in “Friends” and people just can’t seem to get enough of her. In her latest interview with GQ, she spoke frankly about her love life with John Mayer, famous for songs like “My Stupid Mouth” and “Back to You”. Regarding two big rumors plaguing her lately, Jen has this to say: “I am not having his baby. And I have not popped the question.” In another interview, Jen even said, “Oh my God, it’s hysterical. It’s almost going to take away the fun from actually being able to say one day, ‘I’m pregnant!’”

It seems quite obvious that Jen, who’s starred in “The Break-up” and “Marley and Me”, is head over heels for the “Bigger than My Body” singer. While talking about John, she mentioned that she hadn’t even known the crooner’s musical talent before they hooked up. She added, “Honestly, did not know much about him before I met him. I’d heard … you know, uh ‘Your Body’ – that song. But what I can say is that I had no idea what an extraordinary musician he is. And it’s just great to sit and be witness to that. It’s kind of like… Whoa!”

However, Jen has mentioned that she has gotten sick of all the attention she’s been receiving from the press. She reveals, “I think it’s ridiculous. There’s just this insatiable need. I am honestly getting sick of it, and I feel like telling people, ‘You know what? It’s none of your (expletive) business.’ Seriously, it’s enough.” She added, “And this is at a time when we should be so inspired and excited with what’s happening with the president. It’s a time to be positive and join together. We’re just trying to entertain you, man. Don’t shoot the messenger.” On the other hand, John Mayer doesn’t seem all that bothered by the attention they’re getting. An informant revealed that John has, “… even gone so far as to set up a Google alert, so when his name appears in a new article on the search engine, he gets notified on his Blackberry.” Although Jen acknowledges that John may be “too obsessed with fame… she’s so in love that she’s willing to excuse anything.”

Jennifer Aniston recently gave an exclusive interview to Vogue magazine for their December issue in which she discusses Angelina Jolie:

“She asks me if I ever saw a cartoon that appeared in the New York Post a couple of years ago that depicts Aniston talking on the phone in her kitchen. The bubble over her head says, HI ANGELINA…I DECIDED TO TAKE YOU UP ON YOUR OFFER OF A “SIT-DOWN TALK.”…In the drawing, Aniston is loading a shotgun, and there is a copy of Vogue sitting next to her. (The cartoon was inspired by an interview I did with Jolie for this magazine in January 2007 in which she said she would welcome the opportunity to “sit down” with Aniston.) Someone sent Aniston the cartoon (”the funniest thing I’ve ever seen,” she says), and afterward, she could not resist the urge to buy a copy of Vogue to see what the fuss was about. What really rankled Aniston about the piece was that Jolie felt the need to recount a detailed timeline of exactly how her relationship developed on the set of Mr. & Mrs. Smith, while Aniston was still married to and living with Pitt. “There was stuff printed there that was definitely from a time when I was unaware that it was happening,” says Aniston. “I felt those details were a little inappropriate to discuss.” Aniston, still galled, shakes her head in disbelief. “That stuff about how she couldn’t wait to get to work every day? That was really uncool.”

According to an insider, Jen explicitly states, “What Angelina did was very uncool,” in reference to the scandalous way the “Changeling” actress moved in on her ex-husband Brad Pitt while they were still together.
