Why Jen hates the ‘ex’ files

JENNIFER ANISTON is feeling very relieved.

After years of struggling with her love of smoking, she says she has finally managed to kick the dreaded habit. The tabloid speculation about her every move and gesture, including the latest speculation that her (modest) weight gain must have to do with pregnancy, is something she says she has long ago ceased to pay attention to and for her, that’s also a relief.

“I’ve been wanting to stop smoking for years. I’ve gained a couple of pounds of course, who doesn’t? But now the speculation is of course that I’m pregnant!” she says, laughing, but not in an amused way. “There’s like this check list of crap that gets written about me all the time. Like I’m getting married, I’m splitting up, I’m pregnant, I’m not pregnant. Let me just tell you now, I’m not pregnant, I’m not getting married, but I’m very happy now.”
