“I want to say this just right,” she muses. “I am so proud of this house. And I want to celebrate the people who made it: the master craftsmen who poured so much of themselves into its creation.” Not the least of these is designer Stephen Shadley, who worked with her on the project for nearly two and a half years. “I’ll be lucky if I ever do anything with this kind of team and freedom again,” raves the designer. “It was a project without a problem.”
“I’d heard about this place, and when I saw it, I loved it. I knew it was my métier,” he explains. The house, which was designed by architect Harold W. Levitt in 1970, was under renovation at the time and was, Shadley recalls, “in rough shape. We essentially tore the house apart and rebuilt it.”

Here they go again; the Bermuda triangle that refuses to die:
According to US Weekly and a new tell – all book Angelina has been allegedly leaking lies to the press for sometime now about her boyfriends ex-wife Jennifer Aniston.
Brangelina: The Untold Story of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie reports that Angelina Jolie, 34, waged “a mean-spirited but effective campaign” against Jennifer Aniston around the time that Brad Pitt divorced her to be with Jolie.
Author Ian Halperin asserts in his book that Jolie and her camp (including her manager Geyer Kosinski and brother James Haven) planted press stories in 2005 that painted Aniston in a negative light. Specifically? That Aniston firmly prioritized her career over starting a family — which put her directly at odds with Pitt, who ached for kids.
Jolie, Halperin writes, “was convinced that this is the story that would resonate with all these women who saw her as a man-stealing bitch.”
The book also claims Angelina has a temper like a “Cobra” and the couple fight all the time.
A husband cannot be “stolen” unless he wants to be, but it is beyond obvious with Angelina’s history that she respects no bounds when it comes to men in a relationship– And one will reap what you sow.
While promoting her new movie “Love Happens” Jennifer Aniston told Harper’s Bazaar Magazine that she is aware of what it takes to make a relationship fail and flourish:
“I think it’s laziness,” she says. “I think a good relationship is about collaboration. I think you just need to talk to each other. Say what you need. Say what you want. That way it’s not threatening. You just need to say, ‘This is important to me.’ Don’t expect your mate to read your mind.”
“I think that’s because it’s just instinctual as a woman to be the caretaker of your home. Women complain that men don’t do enough, but it’s your own fault,” she said. “You train your man to do nothing. You can’t blame someone for not knowing what his or her job should be if you don’t ask for it right off the bat.”
(Sigh) I get it, I get it– This is about money. Jennifer Aniston can make magazines move off the shelf like no one else in the entertainment business. She is the top selling celebrity when it comes to magazine sales, and editors know when they put her face and name on the cover, they will have a successful return. With that said, Us weekly, can you please leave this woman alone. This story is obviously fabricated and so far fetched, I surprised you even allowed it to see the light of day. Let Jen live her life people:
On being labeled a “lonely girl”: “I’m not going to ignore the pink elephant in the living room. It’s fine. I can take it. If I’m the emblem for ‘this is what it looks like to be the lonely girl getting on with her life,’ so be it.”
On helping others unlucky in love: “I support women, men, anybody who is in a place that’s not their strongest and who is ready to push forward.”
On having a sense of humor: “I can make fun of myself. And I’ll bring it up as long as the world is bringing it up.”
On her parents’ comedic influence: “They would make each other laugh like nobody’s business. So I put a lot of value in that at a very young age”
On her mother’s brutal honesty: “I remember being 7 and asking my mom if I was as pretty as [my best friend] Monique. And with all the love in the world, my mom looked at me and said, ‘Oh, honey, you’re so funny.’ “So, she doesn’t lie to me . . . She answers the question by not answering and instead tells me what she thinks is my greatest strength.”
On the hardest part of her childhood: “My dad walking out and not seeing him for a year and not knowing where he was . . . Trying to understand, ‘Where did that person go?’ ”
On microsurgery, her dream career if she weren’t an actress: “The intense focus and detail . . . completely fascinate me.”
Someone asked me the other day what was Jennifer Aniston’s appeal. They said she is just like a million other women in America with nothing special about them. Well folks, that is precisely her appeal. She seems to be very down to earth and easy going, but happens to be a movie star. That parallel is not seen very often. Anyways, Jennifer Aniston walks with her hands in her pockets as she heads to the set of her movie ‘The Bounty’ in NYC. See the rest of the set when you pop the top: Continue Reading…
