Single Lady to Motherhood: Jennifer Aniston in The Switch

In 2000 all of Hollywood bowed down to reigning king and queen, Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston, as they celebrated their official union. Everyone naturally assumed that the power couple and their perfectly coiffed hair would eventually reproduce, starting the pinnacle dynasty of Hollywood royalty. Fast forward to 2005 when the adoring public is devastated to find out that Aniston and Pitt traded in their king and queen crowns and dreams of future mini-me’s roaming the earth for divorce papers. All we wanted to know was WHY?!

Sources claimed that Brad and Jen were simply in different places in their lives. After Brad put a ring on it, he was ready to knock Jen up so she could start popping out a few Junior Bradley’s and Jen-ette's. However, it was rumored that Miss Jennifer wasn’t willing to be somebody’s baby-mama. She was (and still is) more famous than Jesus and didn’t feel ready to balance children with her booming career. Meanwhile, Brad was filming the project Mr. and Mrs. Smith with actress Angelina Jolie, who was already a mother and fully prepared to have enough kids to start a little league team… not to mention, she happens to be the sexiest woman on the planet. Low and behold, this led to Brad’s disconnect from Jen, and the formation of the pop culture phenomenon known as “Brangelina”.

The rumor mill was all over the story of baby-adopting-Angelina busting up Brad and Jen’s happy home, and even now the tabloids can’t get enough of Aniston’s love life, or lack there of. Recently, the speculations stating that Jen’s lackluster approach to motherhood caused her divorce were confirmed during an interview with Aniston when she made a statement about having children. "I don't think, for me personally, that is something that I want; but again I say you don't rule anything out because I don't know what's going to happen anymore. I could walk out of this hotel and meet the man of my dreams or get hit by a bus. Anything is possible."


Jen’s spawn and boyfriend deficiency has made her America’s favorite Single Lady. She’s been romantically liked to her Bounty Hunter costar Gerard Butler, The Break Up’s Vince Vaughn, and John “Your Body Is a Wonderland” Maher. While all of Jen’s relationships were fully covered by the media, none of them have resulted in love, marriage and the baby in a carriage. But who needs a man in their life to have babies anyway? Not our Jenny. Aniston is starring the film The Switch in which a single woman decides to have children through artificial insemination, reducing a man’s role in forming a family to a quick sperm donation. The movie has caused a bit of an uproar and Bill O’Reilly even criticized Jen for threatening the more traditional family unit. But Jenifer will not be bullied. In a recent response to O’Reilly’s comment she stated, “Many women dream of finding a Prince Charming (with fatherly instincts), but for those who have not yet found their Bill O'Reilly, I'm just glad science has provided a few other options.” Good for you Jen.
