Are Jennifer Aniston and Gerard Butler still a fake item? So hard to keep track. Nevertheless, the two co-stars and "rumored" romantics appear on the cover of the April edition of W Magazine. Hmm. As photographed by Steven Klein. Double Hmm.
Devout Brangelistas will recall that it was the very same Steven Klein, for the very same W Magazine, that photogged the retro-themed cover and spread of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie in July 2005. This was very shortly after Brangelina became something of an official couple, though a solid year or so since they were rumored to be practicing more than just their lines in their trailers on the set of Mr. and Mrs. Smith.
Is it possible, in any known universe, that super-self-aware-and-controlling Jen Aniston was unaware of this coincidence?
When we did a quickie "first words that come into your head" game when comparing the 2010 W Magazine photo of Jen/Gerard to the 2005 W Magazine photo of Brad/Angelina, here were our results:
Now, we know the Jennifer Anniston defenders will come barrelling out with double-barrels insisting that Jen be left alone, but, let's be real here, she chose this magazine, this photographer, and this cover so that the media WOULD pick up on the obvious Brangelina comparison.
