The Evolution Of Jennifer Aniston

Happy 42nd birthday, Jennifer Aniston! We know, it’s hard to believe Jennifer’s that old when you look at her on the red carpet, something you can’t say about Friends co-star Matt LeBlanc. But she’s been kicking around Hollywood for quite a while now: Aniston’s near-shot on SNL was almost twenty years ago!

Aniston’s had an impressively long and successful career as a leading comedic actress: she’s the only Friends star who can still top a major movie, and her infamous nude Rolling Stone cover came almost fifteen years before Jennifer put on a tie (and nothing else) for GQ. We’ve put together a look at her many, many looks over the years, from the Young Rocker to the Rachel, from Mrs. Pitt to Single And Loving It (though remember when she wouldn’t stop snuggling with Gerard Butler last year?). Sure, Zach Galifianakis would rather talk to Tila Tequila, but we’re guessing Jennifer just made him shy.

Between her new movie Just Go With It (with would-have-been SNL co-star Adam Sandler), plus two more 2011 comedies lined up (including Wanderlust, her reunion with former Object Of Her Affection Paul Rudd), it looks like Jennifer isn’t going anywhere soon. See where she’s been in the gallery below.
