Open Post: Hosted By Jennifer Aniston’s Holiday Party For The “Old Guard Of Hollywood”
Unlike most people who have parties and post everything from their first guest arriving to when they’re drunkenly placed in an Uber, Jennifer Aniston prefers to keep things a little more private. This year Jen hosted a holiday party for all of her Hollywood friends who are part of the “old guard.” No, she didn’t use a Ouija board to summon the ghosts of Clark Gable and Elizabeth Taylor. The “old guard” we’re talking about here includes Courteney Cox and Reese Witherspoon. And during this gathering of geriatrics (by Hollywood standards, of course), most of Jen’s guests left their cell phones in their pockets to enjoy an evening of fun that was for all of her “non-thirsty” friends.
According to Page Six, Jen was preparing for the holidays by taking us on an Instagram journey where she bought a Christmas tree and a tiny Rudolph ornament her dogs couldn’t wait to pee on.
Without Jen’s instructions, everyone decided to make it a real private affair by not taking pictures or videos. Of course, my mind immediately goes to a very inappropriate place where I’m sure someone was walking around wearing nothing but garland, referring to themself as Santa’s favorite ho. And since David Spade was there, I’m guessing it was probably him.
The star-studded soirée took place at the actress’ sprawling Bel-Air mansion on Saturday night, and we’re told the “joke of the night” was that the group considered themselves the “old guard of Hollywood.”
After all, attendees included Sandra Bullock, Gwyneth Paltrow…Bradley Cooper, Jason Bateman and Tobey Maguire.
We’re told it was a no-cellphone party — but not because there was a rule in place. Guests simply “didn’t pull them out,” so people weren’t taking photos or videos, or documenting their nights for social media.
The bash was described to us as an “old-school, fun party” filled with “non-thirsty” celebrities.
“Friends” stars Courteney Cox and Lisa Kudrow — as well as “Morning Show” stars Reese Witherspoon and Mark Duplass — were among those celebrating the festive affair.
I doubt Jen’s tree was the only green thing present at the party, but then again, without the pics to prove it, we’ll never know. Maybe they sang Christmas carols by the fireplace and ate cookies. Or they sang Freak Like Me by Adina Howard while taking endless body shots off of one another. But if Goopy brought her potato salad, I’m sure she won’t be invited back next year.
