Jennifer Aniston Is Instagram Official With Herself
Jennifer Aniston and has joined Instagram for the first time, and her inaugural post is a group shot of her and her so called “friends” Courteney Cox, Lisa Kudrow, David Schwimmer, Matt LeBlanc, and Matthew Perry. I say “so called” because, according to Us Weekly, even though they’re all Insta vets (with the exception of Matthew, so he gets a pass), they still let her make her debut with a grainy under-lit selfie that cuts off the top of Matt’s head! Friends don’t let friends post shitty selfies!
According to Us Weekly, Jennifer’s first, and so far only post, is a full Friends reunion, probably taken “at a recent dinner” at Courteney’s house. It shouldn’t be that hard to get six on a selfie. Even I can usually manage it, and I’ve got little T-Rex arms. I know it’s hard getting everybody’s preferred angle in, but this just looks uncomfortable.
Unsurprisingly, Jen already has 1.1 million followers and counting. In fact, People reports that after Jen made her first post, so many people rushed to follow her that her account “became briefly unavailable, presumably as a result of the hundreds of thousands of fans flocking to follow her”, but that “minutes later, it was up and running again.” One of those people was Jen’s ex-husband Justin Theroux who was one of the first to comment on her post. Jen followed him back, but she didn’t follow his shitty bar.
The actress finally joined Instagram on Tuesday, sending sending fans into a frenzy with her very first post: a selfie of the entire core cast of Friends. And, as any new member of Instagram, she made sure to follow all her closest friends — including ex-husband Justin Theroux.
He was one of the first to comment on her inaugural post, writing, “Woot-Woot! #first.”
Don’t let People Magazine fool you. It was way more than that. If you look at the actual comment on the post you, you can see that Justin also included a “Person Raising Both Hands in Celebration” emoji followed by a “Heat” emoji which can only mean one thing. That’s right, they’re totally fucking. Emojis matter, People!
It will be interesting to see what type of content Jen shares with the world. Will she post candid photos from her day-to-day life, or will it be all Smartwater sponsored posts and other contractual obligations? I’m guessing the latter because Us reports that Jen recently said she “felt pressured” to join.
“What you resist, persists,” she told Entertainment Tonight on Sunday, October 13. “It’s something that is a part of our world now and it’s not going away. … You can actually have a little bit more control over the narrative that’s out there. [You can] right some wrongs and some silly things that, God knows, are said often.”
I kind of hope she follows in David’s footsteps and trolls everybody with infrequent and irreverent content. Here’s the only post he had on his page for an entire year.
