Despite receiving critical acclaim for her role in Cake, Jennifer Aniston was unfortunately overlooked for an Oscar nomination. However, the 45-year-old actress seemed unfazed by this as she gracefully took on the role of presenter at the 87th Annual awards show at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles. Jen still managed to steal the spotlight with her stunning nude Versace gown adorned with intricate bead and sequin details.
Dazzling diva: Jennifer Aniston stole the spotlight at the 87th Academy Awards with her stunning choice of attire. She glided down the red carpet in a beautiful nude Versace gown that showcased a graceful sheer strap on one shoulder and a daring knee-high split on the other side. Opting for a more relaxed hairstyle, she let her golden locks flow freely around her shoulders, adding to the overall chic look. Accompanied by her fiancé Justin Theroux, who sported his own unique style with a trendy skinny tie instead of the traditional bow, the power couple turned heads as they made their way into the star-studded event.
Staying elegant: Jen’s dress had a dainty see-through strap on one shoulder and a stylish knee-high slit on the opposite leg.
Trendy pair: The actress, who is 45 years old, was accompanied by her fiancé Justin Theroux, who was stylishly dressed in a sleek black suit with a slim tie.
In a heartwarming display of affection, the couple exchanged loving glances while walking down the red carpet at the prestigious Dolby Theatre in Hollywood. Jennifer Aniston, known for her roles in romantic comedies such as Along Came Polly, Bruce Almighty, Marley & Me, and We’re The Millers, took on a different kind of challenge with one of her first dramatic performances. In the film Cake, Jennifer portrays Claire Bennett, a character who grapples with the idea of suicide while coping with a personal tragedy within a chronic pain support group. Critics praised Aniston’s versatility, noting her breakout performance in the 2002 art-house hit The Good Girl, where she tackled a darker and more daring role compared to her latest drama Cake.
A perfect score of 10: The actress from Horrible Bosses appeared to be thrilled with her red-carpet outfit that could easily earn her an Academy Award.
Taking the stage: The actor from Cake will have the privilege of presenting a prestigious award at the upcoming event.
Hey there! The couple looked really happy as they greeted their friends in the busy tent.
The Friends star received nods for the Golden Globe and Critics’ Choice awards more than ten years ago for that role.
The day after not being nominated for an Oscar in January, Aniston was out promoting Cake and happened to be seated right next to a poster praising her for her ‘Oscar-worthy performance.’
It was such a delight to see her: The talented actress from The Good Girl warmly embraced fellow star Emma Stone on the red carpet.
“There’s talk of Oscars,” she mentioned with a smile. “But the reality is, this film hasn’t even been released yet,” she explained during that time.
“I feel incredibly fortunate that all of this is happening for a movie that we began filming less than a year ago. We started on April 3rd last year. I couldn’t have asked for more than that.”
And it seems she received a little bit more unexpected recognition: The Golden Raspberry Foundation, famous for its humorous critiques of bad movies through The Razzies, surprised everyone last month by introducing a new award category, the Razzie Redeemer Award. This award honors past Razzie recipients who have since excelled in their work and deserve recognition.
Hey girls, let’s split this up: The ex-Friends actress held onto her little buddy tightly.
Time for a quick selfie: Jennifer and Justin managed to photobomb JLo’s selfie that she shared on social media during the event.
Fixing her makeup: The actress was spotted doing a quick touch-up behind the scenes. Aniston is in the running for a Redeemer Award for her performance in Cake. “That’s really sweet,” she responded genuinely. “You win a Nice Razzie.” Despite never winning, Aniston has been nominated for a Razzie four times, mainly for her roles in a series of rom-coms that were not well-received by critics but did well at the box office.
The good times continued: Jen and Justin were spotted a little while later making their entrance at the 2015 Vanity Fair Oscar Party in Beverly Hills.
Absolutely charming: The couple, who have been in a loving relationship since 2011, appeared completely enamored with each other.
Away they went: The pair definitely seemed ready to have a good time.
With her abundant rom-com roles, Aniston wasn’t shocked when the director of Cake, Daniel Barnz, approached her to audition for the challenging part of Claire Simmons.
Aniston shared, “You begin to doubt yourself and wonder if the industry sees something in you that you don’t. Can I really pull this off?”
Girlfriends: The star of Cake was seen snuggling up to Amy Adams, who has been nominated for an Oscar five times.
Meeting up: The actress from American Hustle was seen in a strapless beaded dress that looked similar to Jen’s outfit.
